apparently you can break the screen on the latest macbooks just by putting a piece of paper on the keyboard and closing it.
Given they previously invented a keyboard that would break if it got dust under the key caps, this does not surprise me in the least. Apple hardware peaked in 2009.
I actually had a 2015 Macbook Pro back in the day and the only problem I ever had with the keyboard (besides being really shitty) was that a keycap came loose, so they weren't as flimsy as people say. Used it heavily for years and only replaced it after the battery died, although it became very aggravating to use for various reasons.
Is it possible to set up a shortcut in Cinnamon that runs that command, and otherwise is like a normal app in the app menu?
I did it last week. Needed to quickly run VS Code from my desktop on my Pi semi-dumb-terminal in the garage to recompile some code with Platform IO. "ssh -X desktop code" and done. And way faster than recompiling on the pi.
I wonder if that would be a good way of turning something like that shitty Microsoft computer from the MattKC video I posted into a real monitor or if it would be too laggy.
Thin clients have been a thing for... well, 30 years. Originally direct X11, then some custom protocols, now still X11 or VNC or RDP depending on your needs. 3d accel still requires more custom solutions but the simple solutions works well for most things.
It's a shell command, but you could stuff it into an desktop icon easily enough and I believe there's a menu editor for cinnamon... As I said, it been a while since I did it so you'd need to google the incantations (you also need to set it up on the server end) but it shouldn't be a major job.
There's waypipe to do that, but I don't use wayland, so I have no idea how well it works.
Tiling Window Manager
. Tried lxqt/hyprland with a global float rule when it got wayland support but it's still terrible and you have to write to a seperate hyprland config that doesn't automatically refresh. Maybe once wayland actually gets removed from RedHats pajewt fingers ill move back, but like thats ever going to happen.NO! We absolutely MUST fragment the already small amount of volunteer programers to become even more fragmented so no work gets done outside of corporations forcing them to finally work on a common goal!
Doesn't waypipe just splurge out compressed video? Hardly appropriate for a graphics package.
use debian. mx is a meme distro
MX. It has a more user friendly install and comes with a bunch of tools ootb that a newbie would find useful.
