  • Is it some kind of historical elective course

    No, there was a poster showing correspondence with Latin on the wall, somewhere. The symbols are almost 1-1 with modern orthography, so it takes only about a week of practice. And I was really bored.

    never seen Glagolic in the wild

    It’s about as distant from modern use as runes are for germanic speakers, but maybe with different connotations. Decorative nonsense.

    But I did submit essays written with that when I wanted to fail with style. :)

    I also met a guy in college who used it to keep notes. That guy was also bored.




  • Yo, setup hibernation and use hybrid sleep as your default sleep.

    ln -s /etc/systemd/system/suspend.target ../../../usr/lib/systemd/system/suspend-then-hibernate.target

    Now any sleep is hybrid. The machine suspends, then wakes up after a timeout, and enters hibernation. The timeout is configurable in systemd-sleep.conf(5).

    With this combo I find that I prefer S0 to S3. S0 drains the battery about twice as fast, sure, but it resumes instantaneously, while S3 takes about 30 seconds (!) to resume on this machine. And the thing hibernates and powers off if I leave it for an hour anyway.


  • I have a fist-gen Framework 13 (Intel 11). If I want to upgrade to fully match the new gear, what needs upgrading…?

    Off the top of my head:

    • display,
    • mobo,
    • my 64GB of DDR4 must be swapped for DDR5 IIUC,
    • camera,
    • the new 61Wh battery, and
    • there were these new speakers, I think.

    I should probably get a new keyboard as well, as I’m one of the people with the DEL key randomly going dead.

    I already replaced:

    • hinges, and
    • the top cover.

    I can hold on to the £10 wireless card, the PCIe3 SSD that I bought after WD just died one day, and the compressed alufoil that is the main body.

    Well fuck me.
