Have you tried Organic Maps? Works pretty well for me.

base12 has the advantage of being divisible by 2, 3, 4 and 6, while base10 is only divisible by 2 and 5.
Optical Character Recognition. Basically just extracting text from an image.
You can do this in VLC, though it’s not very practical. VLC’s equalizer has a preamp slider, it’s just not great if you want to change it all the time.
Fun fact about that: in morse code, SOS is a prosign. This means it gets its own special rules.
Rather than being three seperate letters (… — …), it’s one letter without any letter spaces (…—…). This is something that applies to all prosigns in morse code, though most of them are just two letters long.
Also, when sending it on repeat you just continue the pattern without any spaces. Instead of …—… …—… (with a letter space) or …—…/…—… (with a word space), you send …—…—…—…—… and just keep continuing the pattern. iirc SOS is the only prosign where this is a thing.
Other prosigns are for example HH (…) to indicate a correction to something previously sent, and SK (…-.-) (silent key) to signal that you have finished with the current conversation and the frequency is now clear.
No problem, thanks for replying.
That makes sense. It looks like a really clever way of letting the boot process allow for basically any arangement. Thanks!
Thanks for explaining it! So systemd-boot finds the kernel in the EFI partition, which it then loads, and then that kernel loads another kernel from the main partition, which is then the full OS.
Is there a reason it’s done this way, and not just the bootloader loads the main kernel?
Also, are the two kernels the same, or does this use two different kernels?
If you use btrfs snapshots and systemd-boot instead of grub, then be carefull restoring updates from before a kernel update.
If I understand it correctly, with systemd-boot the kernel lives in the EFI partition, while the kernel modules live in the main (btrfs) partition. If you restore a snapshot with a different kernel version, it doesn’t restore the kernel itself, but the kernel modules have different filenames, which stops the system from being able to boot.
At least that is my understanding of the problem, from having to debug it twice (just start a live-boot system and use Timeshift to restore the system to after the update again). The next time I install Linux, I think I’ll go with grub instead of systemd-boot.
That being said, I really like btrfs snapshots as a sort of “almost backup” (still do regular backups on an external drive). They are quick and easy, and most packet managers can be setup to automatically make a snapshot before installing/updating stuff.
Are you perhaps looking for an Expression?
I think that is probably as close as you can get to what you want to do.
Artemis Fowl (Book 1) (he’s the good guy in the following books)
Can I take one end of a cable with me?
What’s the max power I can get from the sockets?
Where does the eject button dump people and can it be set to dump things other than people as well?
Does time continue inside the pocket dimension if no one is inside?
What’s the internal temperature/humidity? Is it regulated?
Can I choose what I take with me, or is it just everything im wearing/carrying?
Questions aside, I would fill it with all sorts of stuff that I might need at some point, but leave enough space for a bed and a desk.
That looks really cool.
Have you tried using an automatic CAPTCHA solver (e.g. Buster)?
A small, cheap holographic projector (as in projects a glowing volumetric image into the air that I can wave my hand through). It would probably work using femtosecond lasers, but making the optics small and cheap would be difficult.
Yes, but it looks like it’s been inactive for a while:
Not a classic book, but Artemis Fowl. Disney managed to confuse fans of the books and newcomers to the series alike by adding a McGuffin that was unnecessary, bringing the antagonist from the second book into the movie on the first book, and mangling the relations between the two main protagonists beyond recognition.
