It’s just the regular penguin. Clickbait!!!1!!

Digital Radio Mondiale enthusiasts: First time?

Wait, the French pronounce ChatGPT as “shat-zhé-pé-té” and not “chat-gee-pee-tee”? I guess they had it coming.

You’ve never used function keys? The dual function is annoying even inside the OS. I have to help several people with laptops and you can’t tell what mode they’re in, the user often doesn’t know either.

On laptops, you never know if the F-key behavior is defined by the OS, BIOS or keyboard driver. I just mash F2, F8, Fn+F2, Fn+F8, Del as often as I can (these are the most common keys to do the trick). You can reduce the options with a USB keyboard with just normal F-keys.

Some laptops don’t have a key you can hold to enter BIOS settings or boot menu (maybe to start booting before the keyboard is initialized?) and there is a reset button hole for that.

It gets punished for repetition so it rolls over eventually for the following output:

Thank you again for this generous offer.

The recommendations seemed favorable when I tried it. I have since switched to Mint.

Even basic things in distros are quite different, for example the frontend for settings, so tech support threads will show how to do it in the backend. Oh well, but then there’s someone who suggests

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

If you’re a noob, run this and get a “nano: command not found” error, you’ll google it and learn to resolve it using apt. However, Manjaro’s package manager is pacman but you don’t know, so you install apt using a weird guide without knowing what it even is. The next update then wreaks havoc on your system.

My first install ended in a dependency hell because of this.

The website title says “Arm Developer”, not “ARM Developer”, in a clearly non-acronym way so it’s a guide for making prosthetic hardware. Of course you want a cyborg arm to parse JS natively, why else even get one?

Formatting

Many text parsers trim down whitespace unless it’s explicitly a code block. You see this often when people attempt to use interleaved spaces for emphasis. For example:

R E D   H A T

becomes “R E D H A T” in your Markdown interpreter.

I think WhatsApp supports code snippets with backticks.
