Just do a quick simple sudo apt-get install task-kde-desktop

You can listen to FM radio with gqrx relatively easily, if you can navigate through hundreds of input boxes.

sudo apt-get install gqrx

Anything more complicated will require some coding knowledge, unless someone already created a library for that specific thing.

There is also a ready-made package to listen to GPS signal, unfortunately it needs an external amplifier and a proper antenna, because RTL-SDR is not sensitive enough for GPS.

Because TeamViewer will set up a port forwarding and a NAT traversal for you.

VNC and RDP only work when your host has a public IP, or you know how to set up a proxy.

It’s the Secret Service of Ukraine. Dissidents don’t join the Secret Service in the first place, and the people ‘purged’ got treason charges.

No one does firing squad nowadays. It’s either poison or defenestration.

RISC-V is not proprietary enough.

So if I’m developing a garage door opener using ESP32 RISC-V module, I’m not a RISC-V developer? The dev tools and the cross-compiler only come in x86_64 variant, they simply won’t work on RISC-V laptop. But at least they provide a Linux installer.

The only use case I can think of is to build Debian packages on a target architecture without cross-compilation, because many packages do not support cross-compilation, but it’s more an issue of poor build scripts.

Targeting developers is, I dunno, misses the audience. It would have been a great netbook, or a Raspberry Pi replacement.

If I develop something for Risc-V arch, it is probably some embedded thing with 100 MHz CPU and 2 Mb RAM, and I am cross-compiling it anyway on my more powerful PC.

That’s what the asteroid belt is for!

Go on and put AR-15 on your flag, be like Mozambique with AK-47 on their flag.

I first used Matplotlib 10 years ago. It was unintuitive and very slowly redrawing the whole plot each time you tried to zoom.

I’m using it right now, and I’m happy to report that it kept to it’s time-honored tradition - zoom is still piss-slow even on my fancy new PC with 12 cores.

Maybe in the next 20 years, matplotlib devs will discover wonders of tile cache.

It’s made worse by the fact C++11 made a lot of solutions for the deep problems in the language. As the C++ tradition dictates, the problems themselves are carefully preserved for backward compatibility, the solutions are like a whole different language.

And Lisp is small - the first Google result provides a Lisp interpreter in 117 lines of Python code.

C++ is OVERWHELMINGLY SUPERIOR, if you ask any professional C++ developer.

Subway that arrives almost to my office. Yes it’s a bit slower overall, but I can doomscroll my phone for a hour per day instead of rotating the wheel for the same amount of time.

TIL someone ported the collection of classic Linux screen savers to Android.

I’m in the same boat, I have (or rather had) published a few Android games which I don’t have time to update anymore, and Google had been unpublishing them one by one.

I’ve had problems with KDE on Wayland on Debian 12, it fails when entering sleep mode with multiple monitors. Thankfully, KDE on X is just one package install away, and it works with no bugs.

No luck eh.

Electric bike is superior in every way except for one - people in regular cars pretty much ignore bikes on the road where I live. If you don’t want to be randomly run over, you need to drive something car-shaped. Our cities are not bike-friendly, squeezing passenger cars out of the city roads using taxes and tolls could probably solve this, like in Amsterdam.

Play Store link?

Nope, the lemmy-cached thumbnail has a different picture
