Any reproducible package manager is suffice. Debian aims for that, too, AFAIK. With Homebrew you end up having to link the binary, and you cannot link different binaries with the same name. I just use venvs for Python, and pipx takes care o

OpenBSD uses BSD_Auth instead of PAM. So you cannot use your YubiKey with doas via PAM on the Linux ports. At least not in the same way, as they do not support caching it seems.

Stuff like this is material for a background image on desktop. I use Bing Wallpaper of the Day for that (you can download the picture with 3rd party clients). This way, I always get the same background on every computer, but it changes ever

I don't know. I can only comment on the original. A friend of mine had it back in the days, could just play it like that. The game suffered from the same issue as Star Wars CCG: too little players in my vicinity. Everyone played Magic,

Thanks for the suggestion. Yep, I looked them up. That seems about the only brand I'd have trusted (need high performance HDMI/DP), but the price is too high for my liking. We're looking at 300+ USD w/o tax. I've go

Yeah Netrunner was a fun card game, and not really P2W but B2P. You'd buy the set (or expansion) and you and your buddy could play, doing blue vs red and vice versa. The game was fun but also you had to buy it once and that was it. No

Before .eu we had .eu.org where the country level was administered by so-called Good People (networking techies of the 90s), so you could have e.g. nl.eu.org this was for free. Back then (end 90s) I didn't envision UK leaving EU. I

Nothing, but Brits had to quit their .eu domains due to Brexit. Which seems reasonable to me. Of course, Brexit wasn't; it was manipulated by the Russians.

You really do not want to deplete batteries on devices where they're difficult to replace. Whether that is true for your sleep mask, I HAVE NO IDEA. A better way to deal with it is have them disable themselves after a timer. Maybe you
