[KDE] Oxygen desktop while my ThinkPad is out of action in c/unixporn@lemmy.ml
[–] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought it was just the Qt theme, but I could be wrong.

I'll give it a go! Is there a GTK theme that goes well with it?

Aw, seriously? I'm getting worse at spotting that.

Linux phones are cool, but not ready for general use yet... unless that's changed recently, in which case I'll look into buying a PinePhone.

On desktop, I use Debian and FreeBSD.

[T400] Not booting, lights flickering in c/thinkpad@lemmy.ml
[–] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah, I've talked it over with a friend and (of all people) the school librarian. Here's my plan:

  1. Wait a week and see if the T400 (hostname Amethyst) fixes itself, which is how I managed to resurrect my Acer (hostname LapisLazuli) last year.
  2. Transplant the RAM and SSD into LapisLazuli, which should be compatible and will receive a massive performance boost from it.
  3. Once I have enough saved up, buy an old ThinkPad to replace it. This will become Amethyst-II, and could be obtained second-hand from my institution.

You'll be able to sideload. The mandate includes the EEA (which includes Switzerland), as well as the EU.

We had some heavy rain yesterday and my bag (containing my T400) got soaked. I tried to turn it on just now, and it appeared to boot at first.

I entered my geli(8) password and FreeBSD began to load, then the screen and status LEDs began to flicker rapidly. I tried holding the power button, but for the first time it didn't do anything, so I removed the battery.

When I turned it back on again, it didn't even show the ThinkPad boot screen; it just sat there flickering.

I have opened the case up and looked inside. I hve checked the RAM, the CPU, the SSD: even the DVD drive; and everything seems fine, yet the problem still persists.

Does anyone have any idea what's wrong and how I can fix it? Or is my laptop now borked? Thanks!

Which Nuclear war movie is better, Testament, the Day after, Threads, or The War game? in c/collapse@lemmy.ml

Thanks! The last one won't work, since it'll be all MicroG'ed, but those are still some great counterarguments.

Securing Bluetooth Headphones (sopuli.xyz)
 

cross-posted from: https://sopuli.xyz/post/8117983

I have a pair of Bluetooth headphones, which I have been using since 2022. Today, I was sitting on the bus when some random person connected to them and started playing Free Bird.

It was a bit funny, but I don't want this to become a regular thing. Is there a way of locking the headphones to certain Bluetooth addresses? Or a way of making it not show up automatically on phones (similar to a hidden WiFi network)?

The headphones in question are the JBL Tune 510, which have a USB-C port. However, I don't know if this can be used to flash firmware.

If there's already a comment telling me to "just use wired" or something, please don't tell me again. It's the best solution, but my phone doesn't have a headphone jack (fuck you, Apple).

Thanks!
