i haven’t used it myself but https://jmp.chat/ looks good if you’re OK with a US or Canadian number.

there is a lemmy community about it here: !sopranica@lemmy.ml.

Bespoke is a synthesizer first but “like a DAW in some ways, but with less of a focus on a global timeline. Instead, it has a design more optimized for jamming and exploration.” (youtube trailer, wiki, wikipedia)

I suppose it runs on an Arm-Processor

It would be odd if a device labeled “Wintel Pro” had an arm CPU.

Wintel means Windows on Intel, or more broadly Windows on any x86 or x86_64 processor.

the info line contains the answer:

Info: applications using this runtime: io.github.Hexchat

You need to remove Hexchat if you want to remove the end-of-life runtimes it requires.

I regret to inform you that the maintainer wrote in February 2024: This will be the last release I make of HexChat. The project has largely been unmaintained for years now and nobody else stepped up to do that work.

My computer uses both system and user remotes.

Because my .var directory is almost full, […]

If you’re low on disk space you probably want to have everything installed as either user or system, to avoid having some runtimes installed in both.

Here is the paper: Dutch courage? Effects of acute alcohol consumption on self-ratings and observer ratings of foreign language skills (sci-hub pdf link).

It was published in 2017 but only won the Ig Nobel prize this year.

that is a publication of DI, who are proponents of ID 😂

thanks for the heads up that they’re in the AI commentary business now 🤡

There are several ways to; afaik waypipe is the best one.

you can still use OpenRC instead if you want, and sxmo will continue to do so by default.

you can read here about why they added systemd.

I’m planning on revitalizing and bringing this old Itautec to the 21st century

I think it was born in the 21st century? From this it looks like the first Celeron M was in 2004, and the first at that clockspeed was 2005.

Also, 2GB of RAM is plenty for many purposes - that’s more than any Raspberry Pi before the Pi 4 had!

I started to python one and half week ago. So I’m still beginner.

Nice work! Here are a few notes:

The WeatherApp object has a mix of attributes with long-term (eg self.LOCATIONS) and short-term (eg self.city) relevance. Instance attributes introduced in places other than __init__, which makes it non-trivial for a reader to quickly understand what the object contains. And, actually, self.{city,lat,lon} are all only used from the add_city method so they could/should be local variables instead of instance attributes (just remove the self. from them).

There seem to maybe be some bugs around when things are lowercase and when not; for example checking if self.city.lower() in self.LOCATIONS but then when writing there the non-lower self.ctiy is used as the key to self.LOCATIONS.

The code under if rep == "1" and elif rep == "2" is mostly duplicated, and there is no else branch to cover if rep is something other than 1 or 2.

It looks like the config only persists favorites so far (and not non-favorite cities which the user can add) which isn’t obvious from the user interface.

Passing both location and locations into WeatherAPI so that it can look up locations[location] is unnecessary; it would be clearer to pass in the dict for the specific location. It would also be possible to avoid the need for LOWLOCATIONS by adding a non-lowercase name key to the per-location dictionaries that just have lat and lon right now, and then keeping LOCATIONS keyed by the lowercase names.

HTH! happy hacking :)

Upload bandwidth doesn’t magically turn into download bandwidth

Actually, it does. Various Cable and DSL standards involve splitting up a big (eg, measured in MHz) band of the spectrum into many small (eg, around 4 or 8 kHz wide) channels which are each used unidirectionally. By allocating more of these channels to one direction, it is possible to (literally) devote more band width - both the kinds measured in kilohertz and megabits - to one of the directions than is possible in a symmetric configuration.

Of course, since the combined up and down maximum throughput configured to be allowed for most plans is nowhere near the limit of what is physically available, the cynical answer that it is actually just capitalism doing value-based pricing to maximize revenue is also a correct explanation.

what was /post/1? what are they hiding??
