Now you have projective-plane-earthers!

Isn't RTL8821CE Wi-Fi+Bluetooth? I think you wouldn't be able to use Bluetooth without a functioning driver.

Just use a second computer and a USB drive? Put the dkms package there too if needed (with dependencies).

Does it? I set its $PREFIX/etc/resolv.conf to Cloudflare and dig uses it fine.

According to mathematical platonism, yes.

Otherwise we have no idea. We have some models of physics, none perfectly describing our universe. We don't know the structure of space, or the structure of time.

Even if we did: what would it mean for a line or a plane to exist? There could be equivalent descriptions of our universe, some including those as objects and some only as emergent properties.

I don't usually edit PDFs on my phone. On the PC, I use pdftk+qpdf+img2pdf+ocrmypdf (all command-line apps). Some of those can be found in the default Termux repos once you install the terminal emulator; some, perhaps, could be compiled and used as well.

Some updates might be restricted to certain architectures, Android versions &c. Some could be beta versions. Or your repositories simply need to be synchronised.

If it isn't the latter, check the following settings: "Include incompatible versions", "Include anti-feature apps" and "Unstable updates".

It's quite similar to Invisible Cities: it's interesting as a curious piece with poetic language, full of dream-like images coming and going. I'd say Invisible Cities is somewhat more vigorous in this regard, but both are quite enjoyable.

I'd been planning to read Hebdomeros for some time - so that's what I've finished recently.

It's harder to refer to things in your native language when you don't know how they were translated exactly (or whether some details/connections survived translation).

Vice versa, it's easier to discuss the books in English-speaking online communities. Your general English is going to be improving. If the original language is English, you don't have to suffer through a Zemblan translation.

The general idea? More or less never.

Some fine important details? Every now and again

And if you'd tried to use a search engine in that new tab, you're presented with a blank tab after restart, having to remember what your search query was.
