For the same reason, I’d like to see shared electric scooters regulated to have a minimum wheel size.

People don’t realize that the smaller wheel sizes are stopped by even smaller things, leading to more crashes as people get pitched off.

I think the small wheel sizes are there for the convenience of the operators, not the safety and comfort of the riders.

Skateboarder here.

The smaller your wheels, the smaller pebble it takes to stop the board and pitch you off. And the smaller pebbles are, the harder they are to see. And the faster you go, the harder it is to see small pebbles.

So, yeah, dangerous. I was thrown off a skateboard hitting a pebble I didn’t see at <15 mph and cut my face open. I’d hate to same rock at 45 mph.

The quotes are specifically about early stage startup founders, not employees of huge established startups corporations.

Thanks. I’m skipping the clickbait headline. This isn’t even news.

I have a kid about that age interested in games. There was definitely interest in social pressure to switch to Windows for gaming for the bigger selection and what friends were playing.

My experience with systemd has been the opposite. Thanks to systemd, many core tools have consistent names and CLI behaviors.

Before systemd I used sysVinit, upstart and various other tools.

I’m glad systemd alternatives exist as part of a diverse Linux ecosystem but I haven’t had a compelling reason to not use systemd.

uutils is not distro-specific.

Waiting for the DC Rainmaker review.

Keyboards with custom firmware supports keycodes like XF86Copy and XF86Paste. These are great for having truly global copy/paste shortcuts that also work in apps like terminals where "Control-V" and "Control-C" aren't supported by default.

I advocated that these keycodes be supported in a web browser, Qutebrowser. The author of that project, Florian Bruhin liked the idea and submitted a patch upstream to the QT framework, which is used by many apps associated with the KDE Linux desktop. And about 5 years later, apps will be packaged with QT 6.10 that include the fix.

Here’s the change description.

This adds support for the Help, Open, Close, Save, New, Cut, Copy, Paste, Undo, Redo, Back, Forward, Refresh, ZoomIn, ZoomOut, Find, Settings, Exit, and Cancel keys to the default keyboard shortcuts.

The bug report:

It is reportedly plug-n-play for basic features, but for more advanced features, something like this project would need to be patched to add support for the camera.
