Has anyone here had success with USB fingerprint scanners? I also found this Microsoft keyboard with fingerprint reader but I don't know if it works with linux.

Didn't know it was still being actively developed. Thanks!

 

I want to be able to access (watch and record) a couple of FTA tv channels on several devices on my LAN.

I already have a couple of USB tuners so I don't want to spend money on HDHomerun.

I did some research and most people recommended TVheadend.

I've also stumbled upon minisatip but there is almost no documentation for it.

Any recommendations?

You can submit an issue on GitHub

So you do all your coding on your tablet?

Not entirely true. Fingerprint scanner doesn't work on my Lenovo thinkbook 14s yoga, for example. And lenovos are known for their Linux friendliness.

Someone has ported Bluecurve theme to GTK3/4.

I need enough RAM since I open too many browser tabs. I also edit 1080p video occasionally.

Yeah I just saw some people on Reddit recommended this one. Checks all the boxes except for weight, but a very good option anyway. Thanks.

Thanks. Which model/year do you have?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Lol. Did you see GPD's 10 inch laptop?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Below 10 inch is too small.

T460 has a 14 inch screen.

I need something super compact and below 1kg.

 

I'm looking for a portable, very compact linux laptop.

Screen size: 12 inch or smaller Weight: less than 1 kg (2.2 pounds) Full hd screen

I did some googling and i only found a CHUWI laptop that suffers from an overheating issue.

I have an old Mac Pro that has been collecting dust for years. Today I bought an SSD and install Debian on the machine. It works flawlessly.

Further reading revealed that there is an active community around the classic mac pros and thanks to their modular nature they can be fully upgraded. People even upgrade the CPUs in this thing.

So if you like playing around with a PC like the old days, that is also Linux compatible, a Mac Pro 5,1 seems a good choice. AFAIK you can get it for cheap and a decent upgrade won't break the bank.

 

For me it's: Testdisk (and Photorec) Caddy Netstat Dig Aria2

 

I'm booting openwrt off a usb c thumb drive connected to a fanless Celeron mini pc. The pc is cool but the thumb drive is so hot i can't touch it.

Any ideas?

 

Ever since upgrading to Plasma 6 (fedora 40) my chrome web apps have been misbehaving when I try pinning them to the icon-only task manager (is that still what it's called?)

1.They randomly disappear from taskbar although i have pinned them

2.Sometimes they are there but wont work (i get a weird "chdir: not found" error)

3.Pinned chrome apps work but wont survive reboots.

Have you experienced a similar problem? I've tried both stable and beta versions of Google Chrome.

 

Is there a self-hosted downloader that would automatically download liked videos or the ones added to a specific playlist?

 

And why do you use them?
