I think those are actually mole crabs. Sand fleas are usually about 1/3" long everywhere I’ve been.

I’m not familiar with fwupdmgr, so I’m not sure either about it delivering bios updates. A good tool to know about for sure, though!

I don’t mean use the RSS feed to actually deliver, I just mean a blog-style announcement. Of course, to be security conscious you shouldn’t follow any links in that announcement to download it, but still.

I don’t think I’ve ever gotten bios updates via apt…not sure if that’s a laptop thing, a manufacturing thing, or what.

Yeah! I only discovered them a couple of weeks ago through this community and they’re fantastic.

Specifically to make something which is not mission-critical reliant on any underlying software…but that’s almost impossible. Not reliant on the base operating system would be a nice start.

While it is true that the ad business model is changing as you describe, Google’s strategy with respect to it is also absolutely about monopolizing the ad market.

I mean any technology solution can suffer the same fate, but you would hope that it wouldnt be an issue at the same time if they’re separate tech stacks.

Yeah the issue is that so many companies were at the intersection of two monopolies – either one failing has catastrophic effects, and there’s no backup plan.

I’ve tried to use scribus, but the interface is pretty clunky and it doesnt react well to high-dpi screens in my experience.

I’m curious about what you think is missing from Inkscape. I use it and illustrator for design work all the time, and I’ve never run into issues with something missing from Inkscape.

Open board is unmaintained, heliboard is the fork, and has added some great features IMO.

Oh it should be roughly equivalent. But really, what besides a slab can you build without worrying about tension?

I can only assume they’re trying to talk about concrete 3D printing, but oh boy is that not ready for anything which needs strength.

That looks just enough not like comic sans to actually be pretty good.

Looks like it from the readme!

They’re ways to search on a specific site from the engine’s search bar. For instance, !gsch cows will search for cows on google scholar from DuckDuckGo. I don’t know how stamdardized bangs are across engines, but they’re super useful if you use a bunch of obscure search tools on the day to day.

This is my exact situation! It’s not just uncomfortably small, either – it’s flat out unusable. I think its a hiDPI issue, but from the forum posts it sounds like its been an issue for 5-6 years. I even tried changing the QT startup settings, but no luck.

It should be noted that it seems like Unity bought only part of Weta–the “technical and engineering division”. I don’t think this means that Weta as a VFX studio is going away.

I use LaTeX almost every day for typesetting, and I had no idea you could use it for this complex of graphical representation! This is awesome.
