Thanks for pointing that out. I had no idea that was a thing.

Als je nagaat hoeveel regels we in ons huidige belastingstelsel hebben, voor een groot deel om mensen niet teveel te belasten, denk ik dat hier ook wel een mouw aan te passen is.

I dislike having the hyphens key as a dead key

Yeah, that sucks. You can have the best of both worlds in Linux by using the US keyboard with the "English (intl., with AltGr dead keys)" keyboard variant. This way, all your qwerty keys will work normally, but you can tell it a key combination is coming up by tapping AltGr. So you can for instance type + <"> + to make ü or + + for ß. If I remember correctly, there is a way to make Windows do the same.

And in KDE at least, you can use any key you like to perform the function of AltGr. I suppose other DE's can do the same.

I remember I had over one hundred floppies to install it all. And those were just for the stuff I was interested in. This was circa 1996. I bought Red Hat 5.0 a year or so later. It came on 4 CD-ROM's and was cheaper than that pile of floppies had been.

My son's Windows laptop did the same. Turns out there is a setting to make Windows truly shut down when selecting "shut down" from the menu, because normally it secretly sleeps or hibernates or something to have faster start-up times. There's also the power another device via USB option that you may have to disable in BIOS / EFI settings.

Your typical bike dynamo puts out 6V AC. I bet yours does as well, so that diode sounds like a good idea.

Jammer dat een artikel van de kinderombudvrouw achter een betaalmuur verdwijnt.
