Ah, I’ve never tried to convert it that way. Laptops all seem to have had USB charging for many years now.

I got it from Ali Express and hope this link works for you. Just look out for the size that fits your current laptop charger. Also check how many watts your laptop charger does, it needs to be able to output 65W if you want to charge a 65W device.

Pro tip: eBay used laptop USB chargers are dirt cheap compared to a GaN charger + USB PD cable. I’ve put laptop chargers all around the house so I always have one available for my laptop, phone and Steam Deck.

Another tip: even if your laptop charger isn’t USB C, you can get a converter to make it a PD USB charger for a couple of £.

We have Linux workstations at work…and these can only be used to access a remote desktop of a Windows 10 virtual machine. 👍

It’s the Sun. No one should use their site. They’re doing you a favour by showing you they’re assholes the second you land on their site.

Brave search 🤙

Edit: I forgot that Lemmy hates Brave and doesn’t want anyone to use it. Be warned, there are some concerns people have about the organisation.

If we keep using the current version and it never gets any updates, will it keep running the whole Switch game library.

My wife’s HP laptop does this as well (she is running Windows). A previous laptop did this and a BIOS update fixed it. For most laptops the official response from manufacturers seems to be: eat shit.

PEGI 18 for gambling imagery 😐

Clean your soldering iron tip on a sponge before every joint.

I’m keen to make a handwired macro board, but the learning curve of programming of QMK from scratch is not something I’m prepared to deal with right now.

Handwired keyboards with a Raspberry Pi or Arduino are achievable: https://github.com/joe-scotto/scottokeebs

I’ve made 2 keyboards with kits (see my post history) and it was good fun and an easy way to get a QMK compatible custom board. Would recommend.

What a non-story. Reporting on “the concept of an idea”. Let me know when something is cooking. Not interested in hearing that some people are thinking about maybe conceiving something in the future.

I never needed to use command line, but I did hone my typing skills on MIRC and ICQ.

That still only solves 75% of your problems. You’ll need to buy an infinite number of books to get to 100%.

“People who are really serious about software should make their own hardware.”

The only way to make sure Linux works like that is to have a closed hardware environment. But it has to play nicely with other hardware and services (e.g. printers, webcams, etc + office documents, etc). It has taken a very long time for MacOS to get to this point, but people put up with Mac compromises because enough things worked smoothly.

I’ve just commented about this in another thread…but I’m pretty convinced that Linux is not close to being ready for normies.

You get the beverage? You see that often?
