What kind of PC/Laptop is this? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I saw a couple of DIY portable PC like this, a SFF in a suitcase, a portable 15" screen attached to it, hinge with a small keyboard, etc, in a kind of DIY enclosure.

I wanted to do it with my mini PC (a bee-link, it's like 4"x5"x2"), with a usb-c portable monitor (no external AC adapter needed), and my Lenovo Trackpoint Keyboard II (super slim, with a trackpoint so no need for external mouse), all in a small Aluminum Attache Case

Some basic info about USB in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

my 5680 has absolutely nothing. Checking online I found that the right one is a usb-c 3.2 and the 2 left ones are TB4. IIRC they all support DisplayPort and all support being used as the power input (165W charger), not sure for PD and fast charging a cell/tablet...

True, my latest Dell laptop has 3 "usb-c shaped ports", there is 0 symbol anywhere close to them or the underside cover, you're on your own as to what it supports, you have to find the doc online somewhere I guess.

Several windows programs won't work with Wine. Would running a Windows VM be a better option? in c/[email protected]

Yes, I'm using QEMU though, no VMware or VirtualBox .

Is there any easy way to install a Linux distribution directly to a USB drive? in c/[email protected]

MX Linux (debian based) works perfectly on a usb drive

Rich countries are flooding the developing world with their used gas cars in c/[email protected]

What? No, it's developing countries stealing thousands and thousands of cars from rich country Canada. Buy a new RAV4 hybrid in Canada, it will be in africa/middle east in less than a month....

Why is Facebook filled with so much random junk now? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Well, less and less people post stuff like their vacation pic or food pic etc. Then more and more companies pay to be in your feed, so now your feed is only non-sense stuff like yours, or mine, it does not make sense, I often see posts from stuff not in my country or sometimes not in my language.

I only use FB for Marketplace (really big here), and for some FB hobby groups that replace good old forums. I never publish anything, and only one of my friend still post pictures of their journey, that's it.

In Canada it is way worst, because every sources deemed news media cannot post/share articles, imagine in the USA if your feed had no news like cnn, abc, nbc, cbs, npr, nyt, etc. but in your feed you see all the alternatives news (read: far-right, conspiracy, pro-russian, pro-musk, anti-ev, etc).

This is our reality in Canada, our facebook feed looks like twitter, full of hate and fake news. I always block them, but there are certainly thousands and thousands of bots posting those kind of thing.

FB is dead.

Why my avatar is not displayed? (lemmy.world)
 

On the web, left of my name, my avatar is a black box, but on my profile page I can clearly see it.

Why? I'm pretty sure it was working months ago.

I have an old application, EagleCAD, from 2014, a 32bit app, I managed to install it on my linux (Debian based, 64bits) and it works fine, but I had to look for and install some lib manually.

How can I package all this, the bin and libs, into one that I could easily re-install on about any distro? AppImage? Flatpak? Snap?
