Depends if they're just wasting away alone or still active and healthy.

Linters won't necessarily help. You also need a code formatter that screams at you if you intent badly.

Transfers within Switzerland are free for normal people. And SEPA has a relatively low fee for transfers in (some) other European countries.

/* doesn't require --no-preserve-root, you're not trying to delete root after all.

For 2d platformers, the virtio GPU with 3d acceleration might be OK.

Support threads, if they're ising what I think they are, already look a lot like traditional forum posts. Great idea to actually make it a forum

In the Basic version only, last time I checked the "original" F-Droid couldn't do it. And there's also some minimum API level an app has to target to be eligible for automatic updates (found that out through updating microg and having to click "update" still)

Documenting commands # or $ before sudo? (feditown.com)
 

This might be a stupid question, but hear me out.
I regularly document steps to install various software for myself on my wiki
More recently, I managed to use different custom text in the source markdown to prepend # and $ automatically, so commands can be copied more easily while still clarifying if it should be run as a normal user or as root.

Run command as user

$ some cool command

Run command as root/superuser with sudo

# some dangerous command

I usually remove and sudo and use the # prefix. However, in some cases, the sudo actually does something different that needs to be highlighted. For example, I might use it to execute a command as the user www-data

sudo -u www-data cp /var/www/html/html1 /var/www/html/html2

I often use $ as a prefix, but # would also make sense.
How would you prefix that line?

Office Laptop recommendations 700€ - 900€ (feditown.com)
 

I hope it's alright to post this question here. Please direct me to a more appropriate commuity if not.
Anyways, my sister's looking for a new laptop and I decided to lend my expertise. I've got a list of various requirements, but maybe some of them are too strict or I'm missing something.

Usage

  • Mostly office & webbrowser
  • Some light gaming (Minecraft, SWTOR, Drakensang)
  • Youtube playback in the background while gaming

Current laptop

HP Pavilion x360 - 14-ba070nz

Hard Requirements

Stuff that's absolutely required

  • Budget 700€ - 900€
  • 14" screen size
  • <1.6 kG weight
  • min. wifi 5 (802.11ac)
  • >250cd/m^2 display brightness
  • all-day battery life (>8h)
  • Windows 11 (I won't evangelize Linux to her)

Soft Requirements

Additional requirements I thought off, though I'm open to modifying those

  • >4 core CPU
  • 16GB RAM (Most laptops still come with 8GB. Is that ok for current year multitasking on Windows?)
  • >480GB storage (I'll have to check her current usage with her, maybe 256GB is fine?)
  • 2x USB-A ports
  • USB-C charging
  • HDMI/DP Port
  • internal GPU only (the games run okish on the old laptop already, so anything newer should also be better)

Some options

These are some options I found. I'd like to hear some thoughts/opinions on those. (links are to the UK site for english language, for prices I'm looking at the german site variant)

Thoughts, comments, experiences?
