  • Windows 11’s 2025 problems are getting impossible to ignore

    Jump

  • I have 2 computers connected to an USB switch (not a port replicator but one that let switch the host of your USB switch) and the dock attached to this USB switch. This allows me to quickly switch all of my desk devices (multiple monitors, webcam, microphone, gigabit network, etc...) with one click. Also both computer just require 2 cables for everything: USB and power cord. It took some time to put it all together but it is now my definitive battle station.

    Unfortunately the dock does not work well with Linux and I am not able to find a non displaylink dock that enables me to achieve all of this. It is just a driver problem, but still...

  • For me it is the displaylink dock driver which consume all the CPU in Ubuntu and Fedora. When that will get sorted out, but I doubt it will happen anytime soon, I will finally ditch Windows.

    I thought this was already settled down long ago, at least in Europe.

    I would love to play this new incarnation if it does not get too repetitive and exploration is rewarding in some way.

  • Are there any examples of a religion giving scientific knowledge that could not have been known to people at the time?

    Jump

  • You are perfectly right, so a little research brought up the following:

    The Hebrew word chûg in Isaiah 40:22 often referred to three-dimensional celestial or vaulted forms rather than a flat circle, a usage also found in nearby cultures. Moreover, the Dead Sea Scrolls, especially the Great Isaiah Scroll (1QIsaᵃ) dating from the second century BC, include the entire chapter 40 of Isaiah, confirming the stability of this wording over more than two millennia.

    It is still a stretch, but not so big IMHO.

  • I know many will not like what I am going to say but still ...

    The Bible mentioned scientific facts long before they were discovered. For example, around 3,000 years ago, Job 26:7 said that God “hangs the earth on nothing,” describing the earth suspended in space—centuries before scientists understood this. Over 2,700 years ago, Isaiah 40:22 said that God “sits above the circle of the earth,” indicating its round shape, long before it was widely accepted.

    Later, in the mid-19th century (around 1851–1852), the physicist Lord Kelvin (William Thomson) helped formulate the Second Law of Thermodynamics. As part of his theological reflections, he cited Psalm 111:2—“Great are the works of the Lord, studied by all who delight in them”—to affirm that scientific inquiry only deepens reverence for a Creator.

    There are few other similar examples like these in the Bible.

  • Imapsync - Installation and use

    Jump

  • You can remap IMAP source folder to destination folder. It's very likely that sent folder needs to be remapped between different hosts. I suggest you to use the dry-run option and examine the log to see if the folders are correctly mapped.

    More in detail, I created an user just to run imapsync as a good practice in Linux. Then downloaded imapsync in a subfolder of the user home directory, created two very simple scripts, one with the imapsync command with all the parameters I needed and one for the token. Lastly, using crontab -e, I added two entry one for each script.

    You don't need to put imapsync into etc, it is not a binary and, as far as I know, there is no package that you can install with a package manager, it's just a script that you download and execute. Anyway, where you put that, its up to you.

  • Imapsync is a (PERL?) script you download, and then run it passing parameters.

    If you need OAuth, and it seems so since you want to sync a Google account, you have to download some more files that help you obtain an access token for Gmail.

    But as far as I remember, there are no config files needed to run it. Infact I am cron running it every 5 minutes to one way sync an IMAP account to Office365 (needs an OAuth token too, and a second script to refresh the token every hour)

    Feel free to ask for more, but I cannot guarantee a timely response.

  • From relevant Wikipedia page in Chinese: "因为最流行的版本用红色封面包装，文化大革命中通称「红宝书」

    Which translates to: "Because the most popular version had a red cover, it was commonly known as the "Little Red Book" during the Cultural Revolution."
