  • How do you indicate going right with your left hand? Here you extend your arm in the direction you want to go.

    Just looked it up to check and it's in the "wegcode" (traffic law), artikel 12.4 and 13.

  • If you weren’t wondering about the method of obtaining the data in the meme, you might want to reflect on why.

    Literally what started this chain of replies, me asking how one gets these numbers. I learned how Americans come to these numbers now, I just feel there's some hostility in some of the replies simply for not knowing how something works but wanting to learn. It was simply the comment where I again saw someone mention numbers and now I really wanted to know where the numbers originated. I could have asked the same question in a top comment but I think the place where I asked is kinda irrelevant.

  • In my country voting is anonymous, how would anyone know based on their sex or color or whatever how anyone voted. Here, your vote is considered private so asking a person how they voted as they walk out the polling station is just a foreign concept to me.

    What's even weirder is how you came to your conclusions. You really have to explain the mental gymnastics you used, because you're really coming out of nowhere.

  • Can I fix an AUR package myself?
  • How are you installing this package?

    I download the PKGBUILD and run makepkg on it. In this case I would edit the PKGBUILD and run makepkg again.

    Seems trivial, but I understand there's an error in the PKGBUILD that should be fixed on the AUR so others don't have to manually fix it, too.

  • Need to clone 16GB partition on 128GB disk to 32GB disk

    I'm not coming up with a lot of useful (clear) results when searching for a solution to this issue.

    Is it OK to simply dd the 128GB disk to the 32GB disk using count to stop after the 16GB partition was cloned?

    A bit more context: I had to clone a 16GB eMMC and only had a 128GB SD around. Now I purchased a 32GB eMMC and want to clone it again. The partition holds a root filesystem for an ARMv8 device. I don't have the 16GB eMMC anymore, that would have been the easy way out.

    DNS (systemd-resolved) not working on Arch Linux ARM

    I'm trying to troubleshoot this DNS I have on a small old Odroid C1 board.

    I have set up a static IP, but cannot get DNS to work. The image comes with systemd-resolved by default. I have notes that said to set a static IP, then disable systemd-resolved, and after a reboot the DNS would work, but that didn't work. I've looked into systemd-resolved a little bit, and have configured the DNS servers manually, which is required when using a static address.

    My gateway is also my DNS.

    Here is what I believe to be relevant output:

    /etc/systemd/network/eth0.network: ``` [Match] Name=eth0

    [Network] Address=192.168.10.44/24 Gateway=192.168.10.254 DNS=192.168.10.254 DNS=1.1.1.1 ```

    Output of resolvectl status and some pings: ``` [root@alarm alarm]# resolvectl status Global LLMNR setting: yes MulticastDNS setting: yes DNSOverTLS setting: no DNSSEC setting: allow-downgrade DNSSEC supported: yes Current DNS Server: 1.1.1.1 DNS Servers: 192.168.10.254 1.1.1.1 Fallback DNS Servers: 1.1.1.1 9.9.9.10 8.8.8.8 2606:4700:4700::1111 2620:fe::10 2001:4860:4860::8888 DNSSEC NTA: 10.in-addr.arpa 16.172.in-addr.arpa 168.192.in-addr.arpa 17.172.in-addr.arpa 18.172.in-addr.arpa 19.172.in-addr.arpa 20.172.in-addr.arpa 21.172.in-addr.arpa 22.172.in-addr.arpa 23.172.in-addr.arpa 24.172.in-addr.arpa 25.172.in-addr.arpa 26.172.in-addr.arpa 27.172.in-addr.arpa 28.172.in-addr.arpa 29.172.in-addr.arpa 30.172.in-addr.arpa 31.172.in-addr.arpa corp d.f.ip6.arpa home internal intranet lan local private test

    Alternatives to systemd-resolved welcome, just need it to work.

    edit:

    The solution was to add DNSSEC=no in /etc/systemd/resolved.conf. I learned this by running journalctl -u systemd-resolved -f, which said DNSSEC validation failed for question google.com IN A: failed-auxiliary.

    Help troubleshooting issue with Mega Drive controller

    I have a "Professional control pad PRO-2" (this one https://segaretro.org/Konix_Power_Pad), but unfortunately it does not work.

    When I open it up and toy with the contacts I can get all the buttons to work at the same time, and indefinitely, by bridging the start button contact with a single piece of metal. The 3 lights will go on and stay on, and the game will keep receiving start repeatedly. I have tested this with Virtua Racing, it will start the game, go through all menus and then when the race starts it will pause and continue repeatedly. When I touch both sides of the start button contact with a multimeter it does nothing.

    I don't know much about electronics, but I would like to repair this controller.

    Here are pictures of the inside of the controllers.

    I'm not seeing anything wrong, and the capacitors don't look leaky, but I could replace them. How can I best proceed?

    Sega "Gold Cartridge" in Master System

    Hi, I'm looking for info on the compatibility of the "Gold Cartridge" with regards to the Master System. I was looking at one of these and it says on the box that it's made for the Mark III and Master System. However, the form factor is different than other Master System cartridges, and it's also nothing like a Sega Card. I've been looking for information online, but to my surprise I'm not coming up with any answers.

    Are the Gold Cartridges compatible with (EU) Master System consoles? Do they fit in the cartridge slot?

    What kind of switch is similar to my current keyboard

    I have an old Logitech UltraX Premium low-profile scissor switch keyboard. Unfortunately this one's dieing, as one of the keys is now broken.

    I'm not well versed in mechanical switches and I'm not native English, so some of the explained terminology is a bit harder to understand when I'm looking for the subtle differences in the switches.

    I'm looking for the right switch that is somewhat similar to my current keyboard. On any given key I can apply some pressure, but the key will not press down. When I push a little harder, the key goes down to the bottom. What kind of switch am I looking for in this case? Linear, clicky, "tactile bump", ...?

    I'm currently interested in the Keychron K5. It has similar dimensions with regards to height of the keys (around 2cm) and is a full layout.

    Thanks in advance.

    Software management for Windows Server

    I have 15 VM's running for clients and I'm looking for a way to keep the tools up to date without having to connect to each server and do it manually. A few examples are WinDirStat, Firefox, SSMS, Filelocator, etc.

    We have expanded recently and I'm at the limits of doing this manually. These servers are not domain joined and are in separate virtual networks.

    Where are the PINE64 monthly community updates?

    It's been a while since they've made one.

    I have a PineTime and my wife wants one too, so I was looking to see if there's any mention of a PT2 on the horizon, as well as catch up on all the hardware news, but to my surprise there hasn't been any news since april. Not a big deal, it's only a few months, but still, they used to provide monthly updates. Skipping an update can happen, but they basically skipped 3 months since the last one. What's going on?
