1·9 days agoIt also worked back on Windows 7, perhaps even XP.
In case you’re dual booting, it’s useful to also tell Windows that the system clock is UTC (if your Linux assumes this as well) like described here: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/06/incorrect-time-windows-11-dual-boot-ubuntu/amp/
Yes, afaIk, the solution is to set some parameter, like
HardwareClockIsUTC, in the Windows registry totrue.However, OP doesn’t mention running a dual boot machine.
Safe, until someone (accidentally) detaches the wrong end.
If the electric power company has cut your power, e.g. because you didn’t pay, you still can get power from your kind neighbour.
26·13 days agoMuch, maybe all, of Mexico supplies single phase power via 2 phases from three phase power. In the US that is known in the power industry as “network power” and is usually 120/208 volts. Now 208 volts sucks. But to get 240 volts from such a configuration, you’d have to have 138.5 volts on line to neutral, and that is a bit too much for most things that want 120 volts. In Mexico they have chosen a compromise where the L-N voltage is just a little high (127 volts) and the L-L voltage is just a little low (220 volts).

FYI: You can also run LanguageTool locally or on your own server.
1·26 days agoYes, if I get the information right, from kernel 6.14 onwards, one should use the
mac80211driver, already included in the kernel, instead of the8812audriver from morrownr.
The driver to use my flatbed scanner on Linux actually is the one for Windows XP. Directly on Linux, no VM, (and no WINE).
If you’re talking kernel-level drivers – and I don’t know what “drivers” means here — you can’t use Windows drivers on Linux.
If, in some (rare) occassions, you can use Windows drivers on Linux, WINE is definitely not the proper method of installing them.
Unlike a VM, WINE doesn’t have access to any hardware, so the installer doesn’t ‘see’ that the required hardware is installed.
8·1 month agoThe Ubuntu font family is the first that comes into my mind.
It’s as if I, too, have a problem with eating wires or plastic I found on the floor and she and I are working on that problem together.
That’s precisely not the royal we. The royal we would imply that she means only herself and not herself and her cat.
Ah, ok. I somehow got that wrong.
Isn’t one usually interested in the speed relative to the ground?
The Pitot tube doesn’t work as the ballon is moving (more or less) with the wind, i.e. both pressure tubes, the one for static pressure and the one for total pressure, in the Pitot tube experience (almost) the same pressure, resulting in measuring (almost) zero dynamic pressure and thus velocity.
Yes, from the Mozilla PPA. One may also want to prevent
snapdfrom being installed again by pinning it with a sufficiently low negative priority.Credit to whom credit is due @fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com
It’s “pay or OK”, the “pur” subscription isn’t needed for viewing the content. They’ll probably gonna stick to that until the highest court has finally ruled that “pay or OK” is not OK at all.
