The article links to https://devblog.qnx.com/qnx-self-hosted-developer-desktop-initial-release/, maybe they don’t block your region.

I have to use Windows at work, but I can use WSL on the developer laptop. Also I develop for/on Linux servers via ssh, so it’s good that I know Linux from home.

Sure, just break millions of other people’s scripts on a whim.

Don’t forget the OpenDocument format of LibreOffice and the other format of the other office suite. Yeah, these will be retired any day now.

Also these.

You forgot the -print0 at the end of the find command. In the read -r -d '' you want to read NUL-separated strings, so you must tell the find command to also use NUL characters between the filenames.

I found uPnP is not advised due to security risk

There are different uPnP things: one that lets apps open ports in your router (security risk) and one with media renderer (safe).

Yes, facebook is running on a web server and the app (or a browser) is a client.

Some big-endian architectures are supported, but not RISC-V:

A related problem is big-endian support, which is also 32-bit only, and also obsolete. Its removal is blocked because IBM is still supporting big-endian mainframe and PowerPC systems; as long as that support continues, big-endian support will stay in the kernel.

You said you/I/everyone can use multiple shells, I said: no, I can’t, at least not on all the machines that I have to use.

Some people work on machines where they are not allowed to install anything.

There’s jc (CLI tool and python library that converts the output of popular command-line tools, file-types, and common strings to JSON, YAML, or Dictionaries).

If you’re not allergic to Amazon, a FireTV stick might be enough, at least for Jellyfin, Youtube/Netflix etc. (not sure about streaming from the browser).

They could buy a chip card.

But what would that help in this situation? You could as easily write result = asize; and the psize would again be unused.

In case anyone wonders: these are the same bugs reported (and fixed) last week, not new ones.

I use ctrl-r.

The Raspberry Pi Zero in USB gadget mode can be used for GPIO. If you don’t want to setup gadget mode, get Pi Zero W.

Also there’s a timeout setting in the same file.

You can update and it won’t break anything, because Intel microcode won’t be loaded into AMD CPUs. If you run apt show intel-microcode it tells you that there is a amd64-microcode package as well. If it is not already installed, you can install it, and then try to remove intel-microcode. If it doesn’t want to remove anything else (e.g. the kernel), you can remove it. If not, just leave it installed.

echo is a program, but some shells like Bash and zsh also have a built-in echo. You can run type echo to verify that.
