VNC? You have your choice of servers, and clients are ubiquitous.
A big gotcha is that you need to be careful with encryption/security, as in classic UNIX style VNC does one thing (remote desktops). It’s easy to forward over ssh though.
You can also use VNC to share, which is not what you want; this depends on the type of server/settings. But you can definitely create a new virtual X11 session and access it remotely.
San Francisco’s current trolly bus fleet are from New Flyer, a Canadian company, though they use German motors.
I don’t think it does—I think OOP is doing the math and then inputting the sum.
The thing that fascinates me is that every single digital microwave I’ve ever used behaves the same way, and allows the “seconds-place” to be 0-99.
My best guesses are
Writing it in software, there are different ways that folks would probably implement it, for example, “subtract one, calculate minutes and seconds, display” seems reasonable. But nope, every one I’ve ever used is just the Wild West in the seconds department.
Not a historian, but folks on The Internet have characterized the Soviet program as a series of milestones, with the US program a series of stepping stones in support of a single goal.
This makes sense with the cartoon, where the Soviets were first in basically everything except walking on the moon.
Not sure how much merit it has, but it’s kinda interesting.
I bought a Rockchip SBC (Orange Pi 5+), and when it worked it was awesome…but man, the software support (mainly kernel space) is just not there. Exercise in frustration to get everything working at the same time.
Currently running armbian. I don’t think HW acceleration is working, and I don’t think HDMI out is even working, but for my use case it’s a stable config…for now.

200MWh is about 1/100 of Little Boy, the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima.
Compressed air can get out all at once given the right circumstances.
Storing energy in a way that can go boom is something I’d be a little scared of, were I a nearby resident. I’m sure thermal batteries can have gnarly failure mechanisms but I would way rather live near one of those than a giant compressed air cylinder.
Per the Linux kernel coding style:
Tabs are 8 characters, and thus indentations are also 8 characters. There are heretic movements that try to make indentations 4 (or even 2!) characters deep, and that is akin to trying to define the value of PI to be 3.
Mac at work. Yabai+sketchybar is no i3wm replacement, but it works ok.
My .zshrc is basically the same as I use on my personal computers, and aside from a few coreutils differences it…kinda just works. I have apt aliased to brew so I can feel more at home.
Stock terminal works fine—I use xterm on Linux, so I’m used to relying on tmux for nice features anyway.
Basically, I miss the window manager, but practically speaking that’s a about it. (I obviously have xscreensaver installed!)
nc is useful. For example: if you have a disk image downloaded on computer A but want to write it to an SD card on computer B, you can run something like
user@B: nc -l 1234 | pv > /dev/$sdcard
And
user@A: nc B.local 1234 < /path/to/image.img
(I may have syntax messed up–also don’t transfer sensitive information this way!)
Similarly, no need to store a compressed file if you’re going to uncompress it as soon as you download it—just pipe wget or curl to tar or xz or whatever.
I once burnt a CD of a Linux ISO by wgeting directly to cdrecord. It was actually kinda useful because it was on a laptop that was running out of HD space. Luckily the University Internet was fast and the CD was successfully burnt :)
A dishwasher is a total quality of life thing for us.
It sucks that some places don’t offer them. They’re not even very expensive, it’s just the kitchen real estate/installation that sucks.
A place I loved in after college had a full size unit on wheels that you hooked up to sink to use—worked fine, just took up space. They also make countertop units, but I have no idea how well those work.
You might say, “well akshually it should be sudo apt upgrade, because you shouldn’t generally use the the root account,” but some of us just have apt aliased to sudo apt.
I’m a ~/tmp man myself.
I probably would have ordered my matrix so that my/my and (not my)/(not my) were the diagonal elements, but that’s just nitpicking I suppose.
640k 780k ought to be enough for anybody…
I know right? What a poser!

Torvalds uses it too I believe, so you’re in good company (Debian for me, though my heart belongs to Slackware).
