Exactly the other way around for me! I've been using screen since forever, and had no idea it could do that. Minicom I still know from the dialup dark ages.

C-o here. And C-x or C-p on a few rare nested screens in one particular screen session that I always have open. Those are identified by differently colored tabs in the hardstatus bar which is always visible.

Nice! Watching this. I started something myself but don't move quite as fast.

So, essentially, you have to disable mobile data as well as wifi calling, thus disabling the ability to be called entirely until they release the march patch. Nice..

Double rot13 just to be sure.

You might not hear it anymore by now if you are still of a CRT generation since that tone is 16kHz and you quickly lose the ability to hear it.

The immune system in the elderly also deteriorates with age, so it's not as effective.

I'm a power user and have been using linux since the early days. Support has actually never been this good. Mostly due to standards in buses and hardware. Even GPU support is relatively good despite the closed-natured mindset.

I'd still never recommend it to anyone who wants something that "just works" though. It will never be on the same level as that needs a ginormous organisation to provide testing, support, documentation. Especially if you follow the Windows model with all the hardware support vs the Mac model.

I like how most of the configuration in this setup is very similar to how I configured systems as far back as mid-nineties. Most applications have a simple single config file, and a single responsibility, true to Unix' philosophy. My window manager needs haven't really changed during all this time. Add a nice launcher that indexes your system and you have most of everything you will need.

I think many New Yorkers realize how bad it is in the rest of the US. HOWEVER! In NYC, the subway is essential, and many people don't realistically have any other option. Especially if you're in the outer boroughs. Even worse, there you also don't have the luxury of walking over to another line if yours is heavily delayed. Walking is too far, and biking is only recently slowly becoming a reasonable alternative.

Yup. Any delay in Manhattan during rush hour, and the trains just pile up waiting to get into Manhattan in the outer boroughs. And in the outer boroughs, you often don't have the luxury of being able to choose from multiple lines. So all in all this means that your morning commute could last anywhere from X ('scheduled' commute time) to X + 45 minutes, occasionally even worse. And you'll probably be packed like sardines inside the cars as well, hopefully with a working AC if it's not freezing outside.
