So late last night (local time about 1 A.M.) I finally updated my own Autorotate-S.A.M.ΒΉ

If you're "stuck" on a #Linux #X11 DE, have hardware that you'd like to rotate the screen and align the touchpad when you physically rotate it (or with a keyboard combo), then have a look at my project.

It consists of 3 components, which rotate it all, automate that process, or disables that automation. With every insight I get I try to improve the project (even after 3 years!)

nostr:npub1hte85nxymfyez0nlmmxf287nh9cujfuetxhk9vptwcdqg0pn8pxqxasw3d be sure to get a good night sleep and no excessive partying tonight. I need you sharp for our panel tomorrow morning at 10am.

P.S. It may also be hilarious if you are hungover. Who knows?

Lol, I'm already up. Just ~75 from now (or which timezone are you talking about ✌️😎)

And that's why I prefer to use NewPipe and see just the updates that I subscribe to, instead of the YouTube algorithm πŸ€”

Oké, even gewoon in het Nederlands; ik zit lekker de #MaskedSingerNL te kijken, maar als de #IJsbeer niet #EdsonDaGraça is begrijp ik er niets meer van 🀯

Oh, en kwam stem moet ik nu bij de #Stier aan #LeeTowers denken πŸ€”

#TIL that nostr:npub13hfv0rxyy6er553akhuc4cjxdc478m2p4jls2wmcjwegj52d9gcsq9dhhp has a ton of locations in its $PATH and some that aren't even created for new systems.

Long story short; I've `mkdir`-ed /nix/profile/bin into existence, copied two files to it and now they are in my $PATH. One is autostarted and uses the second to control the orientation of the screen and alters the pointer matrices to align them when I rotate my laptop. Aka `autorotate-sam 2.0`.

I can use just the second script on distros that don't have iio-sensor-proxy functioning. Just add some keybindings and Bob's your uncle.

In the coming days I'll probably update the nostr:npub1cujzmpp2d3ldueuk2wx3mqruvyfehr64rmh245t4qs2eux83arzsdjktrl repo ( https://codeberg.org/RyuKurisu/autorotate-sam )

Hmm, I'm uncertain if I find this a noble cause πŸ€”

So after reading up on #filesystems, I've attempted to put UDF on my microSD. Whilst it is best known as the filesystem on CDs/DVDs, you can put it on USB storage devices as well. It does have some caveats when you do (you have to jump through some hoops to have the best compatibilityΒΉ).

I've tried to do it manually, but tomorrow I'll see if I can get thisΒΉ script to work;

I would be melting away in 30Β°C, especially with that hat on!

But those are some nice colours! πŸ––πŸ˜Ž

Are you certain you mean G4OS, not Q4OS?

A parliamentary search didn't yield anything, but it does surface Q4OS πŸ€”
