My university was pretty zen about this — essentially, “don’t use your own access point/router please. But if you do, please talk to your resident (University employed) student IT rep and they can probably help you set it up correctly.”

…but was it the “Windows Uninstall” button…or the “format /dev/sda1 as ext4” button?
Just don’t try plugging it into a Raspberry Pi 5.
No data loss, but won’t work without changing your kernel. The other way around is much worse though — you can use an RPi5 to make a BTRFS drive which essentially only works on RPi5s.
I think (?) it’s generally true that the root user should never mess with users’ files.
Imagine your home directory is shared across many systems on a network (my alma mater did this). It would be really bad if a sysadmin for alpha.university.edu removed a program, and suddenly your personal settings were removed from beta.university.edu — even though that computer still has the program.
This is one of the “UNIX on the desktop” issues — a lot is designed for a sysadmin/multiuser situation, and it has some gotchas when using it as a desktop machine (I’m used to/really appreciate the directory structure and settings management at this point, but it may take some getting used to).
They’re just popular ETFs which contain a lot of $AAPL. I was just commenting that even if someone doesn’t explicitly hold any $AAPL, if they own ETFs/mutual funds, they are likely exposed to $AAPL.
Doesn’t apply to you though since you said you don’t own any stock :)
…or $SPY, or $QQQ, or…
In 1999, the iBook was US$1599 (equivalent to $2925 in 2023) (source).
The 2010 13" Air was $1299 (more in today’s $) (source).
The current 13" M3 Air is $1099 (source).
So yeah, they may well raise prices, but the cost of Apple’s entry-level hardware has decreased in absolute terms over the years, and has decreased substantially if inflation is taken into account. Not to say the margins aren’t higher (no idea about that), but it’s interesting.

Right, that’s what the & exit
is supposed to prevent, since it’s already logged out.
I did all of grad school with i3wm. And I spent a very, very long time in grad school…
I always ran startx & exit
to prevent someone from VT switching to a logged in console if my screen was locked :)
Been a while but isn’t that very insecure? Gotta run startx & exit
;)
I’ll push back on that a little. Peloton has, from the beginning, been a very closed ecosystem.
Contrast this to the smart trainer I have which is marketed to cyclists (a Wahoo KICKR). It uses standard protocols to talk, and while they have some software available, it works independent of their ecosystem on standards compliant equipment (ANT+ and BLE). You can even talk to it using the open source GoldenCheetah software.
I would say I own this device. Sure I can’t necessarily hack the firmware easily, but I can’t hack the firmware on my microwave easily either, but I’d say I own that, too.
Right, you can control that behavior in bash with the HISTCONTROL
variable, and in zsh with setopt HIST_IGNORE_SPACE
:)
Linux is just as bad though — .zsh_history
records every command you run!
(/s, obviously…)
People need to stop buying the thinnest thing
Yeah, I think one of the problems is that thin is a familiar and commonly reported spec for a display. If MTTF were reported — and it should be! — then I think the problem would sort itself out.
I have an old Nexus 6P, spiritually the Pixel 0.
Replaced the battery at some point, and it’s now entered service as the toddler’s entertainment on airplanes.
It’s old and slow, but the screen still looks really good.
The only flaw in Corel’s logic was that as soon as you’re running Linux, you lose all desire to run WordPerfect, and develop an irresistible need to align yourself with vim or emacs…
