Did you write code for #Psion machines in the #80s and #90s?

We're calling for you to open source your code!

I'm working with a group of enthusiasts, building a library of information about the SIBO/EPOC16 platform. Your old code could give valuable insight, as well as encourage people to write new code.

We're especially interested in old C and #x86 #assembly.

Upload it to your public repository of choice, and set it free!

Did you ever believe that Hunter Biden took a #laptop full of incriminating information into a computer repair shop and abandoned it there? That the repair shop decided to examine its contents and transmit them to Rudy Giuliani and Steve Bannon?

Of course not. Because you have more common sense than reporters and editors at every major news organization.

The whole thing was a Russian disinformation op, in partnership with the GOP. And it's ongoing. Where's the press?

ThinkPad + Fedora is a killer combo, and it couldn't get any easier than having Fedora installed right out of the box.

You can get the latest ThinkPad X1 Carbon with Fedora Workstation straight from Lenovo! Buying in this way communicates to Lenovo that there is demand, so it helps a ton.

Europe: https://www.lenovo.com/gb/en/configurator/cto/index.html?bundleId=21HMCTO1WWGB3

Canada: https://www.lenovo.com/ca/en/configurator/cto/index.html?bundleId=21HMCTO1WWCA4

(You can put another spin or distro on it later. That's ok!)

Schools bought millions of Chromebooks in 2020 — and three years later, they’re starting to break

The US Public Interest Research Group Fund has found that cheap , due to their short lifespans and lack of repairability, are both less sustainable and more expensive for than pricier devices might be.

🆕 blog! “Review: Framework 16 Laptop”
★★★★⯪

Several years ago, I purchased a Clevo N151CU laptop with the idea that I'd gradually upgrade the RAM, storage, and other bits. After my keyboard failed, I found it difficult to find replacement parts. The whole point of the Framework laptop is that it is specifically designed to be modular. It come in kit form, […]

After almost 9 years, our home is good for nothing but the recycle bin.

What are sustainable solutions for personal laptops?

Like my (or better) but a laptop. Help me please.

Today's video hits two birds with one stone (poor birds), as we'll take a look at Tuxedo OS 2, a KDE Plasma based, semi rolling release distro, and we'll also cover the Stellaris 16, the latest entry in Tuxedo's gaming and workstation laptop lineup.

Which also gives the opportunity to look at what Tuxedo OS brings specifically for Tuxedo PCs.

So, buckle up, it's a dense one!

#Linux people of Mastodon, you're my only hope.

I have a Dell laptop, running Ubuntu 22.04, with the following buttons around the trackpad. The trackpad works, and the three above it work (left, middle and right click as you'd expect).

I want the ones BELOW the trackpad (4 and 5) to be left and right click. Currently for some reason the left one is mapped to middle-click. How can I remap it? The other one does nothing at all.

xinput doesn't even know those buttons exists, and tells me I'm running xinput against an Xwayland server.

Things I've already tried:

• Gnome-Tweaks
• Key-Remapper

Finally!

I finally have a device that is the perfectly realized result of something we were trying to implement when I worked at AMD's Radeon Technologies Group in 2016/2017.

A premium AMD + AMD laptop that hits ALL the sweet spots.

Ryzen 9 5980HX + Radeon 6800M with 12GB of VRAM. Smart Shift technology.

1440p, 165Hz display with 3ms response time and FreeSync.

Excellent cooling system.

NO webcam 💯

This is the ASUS ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition. And I love it.

Ich bin für unseren Pflegekunden auf der Suche nach dieser Logitech TrackMan Marble Maus mit USB-Anschluss - aufgrund seiner Behinderung kommt er mit dieser Maus am besten klar - leider ist diese inzwischen kaputt.
Bisherige Alternativen funktionieren nur so semi. 🤷‍♀️
Die bei Ebay hab ich gespeichert!
Aber vielleicht hat ja jemand von euch so eine, die nicht mehr gebraucht wird...?
