    It would be largely fine, but be careful. Being immutable, a lot of things that you would expect will work differently or not at all. I would not recommend it, but if you're in for a challenge, it's not bad.

    They have an "Office Key" on some official keyboards. Pressing Office+L opens LinkedIn. The Office key is actually mapped to that long modifier shortcut.

    Actually, the primary dev is no longer active. The other developers have moved to a fork called Input Leap that has Wayland support.

    Maybe try Input Leap. It's an actively maintained fork of Barrier (Barrier isn't maintained), and it has Wayland support.

    Most of what you said applies to the Linux kernel too. It's good to have other options, but being popular does not mean something is bad.

    My CPU is only a single core, so while it's really fast for single-threaded workloads, heavily multi-threaded applications like that are really a struggle. This gets especially bad when you need a translation layer for emulation of a different architecture.

    Kindles are really hard to root. Use XDA Developers forum for this kind of thing. https://xdaforums.com/t/fire-hd-8-2018-only-unbrick-downgrade-unlock-root.3894256/, which is what that guide is based on, looks like it only works for the 2018 version and seems way more difficult and risky than most ROM installations. Also, that won't install Linux, just a different Android version.

    You can't do that. Installing custom ROMs on Android devices is very different than installing an OS on a desktop/laptop. Most devices don't allow changing the OS at all, most of the ones that do don't have any Linux builds, and then you'll be stuck with whatever distro you're given (probably UBPorts or maybe PostmarketOS) rather than choosing your own.

    What do you think an API is? They have reverse engineered the iMessage API and are using that to connect to the iMessage servers. It is literally impossible to do as you suggest (use entirely their own resources) because iMessage is centralized and cannot federate with any other server, even if one did exist.

    How? It's not a MitM or anything like that, it's connecting exactly how an Apple device would connect. Everything is still E2EE, just one of the ends can now be an Android device.

  • Let's assume a Feruchemist has access to some other form of Investiture, maybe with a Perpendicularity, liquid Dor, becoming a Radiant, getting Breaths, or maybe even tapping Connection to become Elantrian or something. We've seen from TLM that Allomancers can use Investiture from a Perpendicularity instead of metals, so can Feruchemists do the same? If so, how would something like a coppermind work, where the attribute has data stored rather than just an amount? There's probably a WoB explaining this somewhere, but I can't find it.

    My Matrix server is on Oracle Cloud. At one point, while messing with something on it, I accidentally enabled the firewall for port 22, so I can no longer access it via SSH. I think I also disabled password login, as I cannot log in over Oracle's remote terminal service. Also, the backups had filled up the drive space without me noticing, so it hadn't made backups in six months. Yes, I'm dumb. At this point, I've given up hope for recovering the data on the server, but I would prefer to keep as much as I can when making a new server. The information online about making a new server on the same domain all involves copying over some data from the old server, so is it possible to keep the domain name when making a new server? It seems that it is not possible to make a new account with the same name on the same domain because it messes with federation, so I will need a new account name. Is that all correct? My current plan is this: - use [Matrix migration](https://ems.element.io/tools/matrix-migration) to transfer my rooms to a temporary account - delete the server - make a new server with the same domain - make an account with a different name on the new server - use [Matrix migration](https://ems.element.io/tools/matrix-migration) again to transfer the rooms from the temporary account to the new account Does this all seem like it would work, and is there a better solution? Thank you for the help. Edit: What I ended up doing was this: 1. Upgrade to a paid account (my account was previously free)—this can't be reverted, but you won't get charged if you're always below the limit 2. Export the boot drive to a bucket 3. Download the bucket 4. Extract the downloaded bucket and take whatever data you need from it 5. Delete the bucket 6. Replace the boot drive (or create a new server and delete the old one). You may be able to fix the issue then upload the image again, but I just applied the vital details (signing key, primarily, but you can also use the database) to a new image.
