Dockcheck is the way to go

Is there a way to use this in a more automated way instead of copying and pasting each time?

A reference to The Expanse.

That looks nice. Thanks for the suggestion.

Any ink support?

Sounds like you need to talk with @retro@infosec.pub from elsewhere in this comment section.

As someone who now only games from the Steam deck, every time this gets posted I immediately look for updates as to whether a Linux or web client is included.

Until then, I’ll keep going with my current set up.

I see the window controls (close, maximize, minimize) on your music player, but not on the other windows (file manager, console, etc). I also don’t see them in your top bar. Where they at?

Wife approval factor

This game was the cart racer of my youth, played with a Gravis gamepad.

Sure, but what about when you use a laptop on your… Lap?

On a couch, bed, bus, plane, train, waiting room chair, etc.

I dunno how people can knock the option. I can’t stand using a laptop without a touchscreen.

Quick interaction with small elements at distances across the screen? Absolutely I’m preferring poking the screen over the touchpad.

I would never drop the touchpad in favour of a touchscreen, but I feel it when the touchscreen is missing.

Wacky Wheels and Slipstream 5000.

I’d love to pick this back up

What is DoH?

I had no idea that Teksavvy passed these along. I thought they took a stance to ignore these.

I may be pulling out the wrong term, but:

The Nextcloud application on Windows shows the entire contents of your Nextcloud account in Windows Explorer, as if they were on your hard drive. They are indexed in search. When you access a file, it dynamically downloads that to your hard drive where it stays and is kept in sync with any changes on the server and the server is updated with any changes to the local file.

Maybe on demand file sync is a better term.

There are two things that hold me to Windows (10) as my daily driver: MS Office, and support for a virtual file synchronization a la Nextcloud (which I presume piggybacks off of what MS built for OneDrive.)

My secondary laptop, my 4 year old’s laptop, my gaming device (Steam deck), homelab, are all on Linux. It has been fun to learn Linux and it’s what I intend for my kid to grow up on.

Eventually, when I get a new laptop (current is 8 years old and I’m really hoping Framework gen 2 has a touchscreen) it’ll be Linux first… And I hope Nextcloud gets that virtual file sync going by then because a network share/WebDAV connection will make me sad.

What’s with some really scary companies (Anduril, Palantir) cribbing their names from LOTR?

I use a Radxa Rock 5B running an Android TV ROM. Sits in a 3D printed case and has a silent little Noctua fan keeping it cool. Could be better - the ROM has a little jank to it - but it has taken everything I’ve thrown at it so far.
