One very nice use case that I haven't seen anyone else talk about is touchscreens. I have assigned my touchscreen to be in a separate seat. This allows me to interact with apps without moving my cursor or changing my window focus. For

It's possible with wayland seats, if the compositor supports it. I've used sway this way. Assign M+K A to seat A and M+K B to seat B. I only wish I could change the focused window decoration depending on the seat (say: one blue se

How do they handle the signature requirement for the VBIOS? I could perform such a mod, but the requirement for a signed VBIOS puts me off. What if timings are wrong, such as with this attempt: https://www.computerbase.de/fo

Regional keyboards are a mess for coding. I'm much happier with a qmk-enabled keyboard where I remap keys in hardware. For instance, on a French keyboard: - easy: " ' , : * ! - _ = ( ) - harder (shift): numbers . µ ? / ℅

Sure! I ordered the necessary part years ago, but didn't get around to do it yet. Having someone else interested may finally motivate me. Please leave some contact info on your HN profile (or use mine), so that I can let you know.

Interesting project! I am relatively skilled at FPS with a mouse, but would like to improve with my trackball (so that I don't have to change my setup when playing an FPS). This could cone in handy, though I imagine that there aren

I don't have the time to provide such a detailed answer, but there are a few options. At least on Sway (and I imagine other wlroots-based compositors) it's very easy to do: create a virtual output and start a VNC server attached t

I still use my Samsung n130, though I went with Alpine after Arch dropped support for 32 bit (there were a few pain points with Arch 32 in the early days, I tried guix but it was too slow and guix uses a lot of RAM during updates). It works

Or you can insert a cheap USB-C adapter that converts the game boy socket to USB-C: https://aliexpress.com/item/1005008985278704.html

Not OP, but I can imagine piloting it with a temperature sensor: too warm=>increase speed. It could avoid some sweat-covered wake-ups, depending on the circumstances (trade it for a noise-triggered wake-up, perhaps). Another use-case I h

Funnily enough, I did almost exactly that last week, but I kind of gave up for now as my 433 MHz transceiver does not seem to work well with esphome? It does seem to output signals when I use the remote. Oh well, I will revisit when I have

Hmm, coing PCIe -> NIC -> NIC -> PCIe seems a bit silly, couldn't both devices communicate directly over PCIe?

Ah, that's interesting, the requirements are similar in the CAD industry. Dassault Design Sync is used a fair bit for semiconductor design databases, for instance. An open alternative would be welcome! Edit: I do feel a bit uneasy abou

I like Windward a lot, even though it does not feel like a complete game. It would benefit from a storyline IMO, and the dev has stopped updating it. I am longing for an open source project similar in scope.

Thank you for the detailed answer. This is an interesting engineering problem. I wish I had more free time, a gearbox or a 4-way differential can probably be used on the extruder head to control the mixing ratios. Regarding the necessary re

Hence why I was asking the question, thank you for answering, I did not consider the high viscosity of the filament when I wrote this. As you say, it can be worked around, but that would require extra complexity/cost.

Thank you for the clear & concise answer. A rotating nozzle and/or alternating colors might work then, but that would be a relatively complex engineering project.

Hmm, I am not in the 3D printer space anymore, but I am surprised they went with alternating layer per layer, as that severely limits resolution. It's probably the simplest way to achieve reproducible results, but I can think of a few

I ended up being able to authenticate using a passkey, IIRC. Can't remember if that was my yubikey or bitwarden. I was surprised that it worked at all. It didn't use to be complicated, but an update messed stuff up a few months ag

I have been thinking about this for a while. It's not as crazy as it may sound, especially in light of the other comments making a parallel between terminals and notebooks. A few thoughts: 1. Linux VTs kind of have this feature already

Not sure why that happens, but you may want to try "borderless window" instead of fullscreen in the game options. If that does not work, you could try running the game in gamescope, or enabling the wine virtual desktop with winecf

This is true, but only relevant if you order enough units (>100 k? Depending on price & margin of course) to customize your die. Otherwise, you have to find a chip with the I/Os that you want, all the rest being equal. Good luck
