Both are open I think.

I remember it like that too. Or is it Mandela effect?

The Magnus effect? :)

Does macOS not have hibernate/suspend-to-disk?


Ensure your network has no <WiFi6 devices.


Easier said than done when you’re dealing with warehouse equipment.


Sure, but then this becomes a bit of an irrelevant comment on a discussion of how WiFi 8 will focus on increasing reliability.

Your old devices won’t magically get more reliable because WiFi 8 comes out. You will benefit from this after it comes out by migrating to WiFi 8.

Meanwhile, you can benefit from existing reliability enhancements by upgrading to WiFi 6.

If your response to that is ‘I can’t use WiFi 6’ then presumably the putative benefits of WiFi 8 are even more remote.


Care to expand?


Legacy clients force APs to accomodate them. Be it by using slower speeds with worse airtime consumption or by just disabling features that (can) make old clients misbehave.


Things you can say in 2062, not 2026.


The original Motorola exists as Motorola Solutions in USA. Mobility was spun-off.


Yeah. I had to access it by archive[dot]org

What ISP do you use?


The blocking is being done by linuxiac.com, not by the government or by your ISP. (If it were done by them, you’d get TLS connection errors over https:, and a message over http: something like “The website has been blocked as per order of the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology under IT Act, 2000.”)


That’s bad. I wouldn’t have submitted this article had I known that. Why would they do that?


Their source is StatCounter. I would trust the trends but not their absolute values. This month, Steam reported an increase to 4.01% while Cloudflare's human activity reports ~6%.


Even the trends should be taken with caution. By the very nature of their collection methodology and Firefox’s user base, they massively undercount Firefox (almost certainly by more than 30%, from the last estimates I remember; and possibly significantly more). I would expect them to heavily undercount Linux for similar reasons.


Do you mean really ortholinears like Planck or columnars like Corne, Sofle, Kinesis?


My bad, I did mean "ortholinear"!


Yep. I am waiting for half-duplex UART splitkb support to come so that I can move everything over.


I am deep into custom keyboards but I only buy ones with hot swappable switches. Some keys like AWSDEHJKL etc are bound to fail sooner than others.


As the poster is saying "certain keys weren't detecting presses less than a month later" it's almost certainly a manufacturing defect, rather than a wear-out issue.

Keychron say their mechanical switches last '50 million clicks' so to wear out after a month you'd have to be pressing the key 19 times a second, 24 hours a day.


And all of us have owned multiple keyboards that have lasted for years of daily heavy use without a single key failing. Even the $30 membranes you could buy at $local_retailer didn't fail in a month.


The mechanical keyboard hobby takes patience; just look at firmware customization: testing litterally requires keystrokes.

I'm on a Mac keyboard bent for the very reason, actually,

Mouse firmware sounds very cool, though. If you could access a layer by holding down a central button, that could open up neat possibilities.
