This may be anecdotal but I visited Christchurch NZ last year and walked around the whole city. I don’t believe I saw a single person begging / sleeping on the street.
Compared to my small rust belt city in the US where there’s homeless at every busy intersection begging and pop-up tent settlements that will frequently be destroyed by cops. Bigger cities and/or the West Coast ones like Portland have way more of this type of thing.
Hello fellow pittsburgher. Same thing happened to me. We were only out of power for about a day because we’re in the city limits I guess, by the zoo.
Worst part was showing up and working in the dark because we have a bunch of skylights in our shop.
Some of my coworkers that live more rural were told may 6
My fiance triggers his all the time by air drumming or throwing his phone around haha.
It’ll be like “were you in a crash?? Do you wanna call 911??”
It’s actually very simple:
monitors-on:
#! /bin/bash
hyprctl keyword monitor DP-1, 2560x1440@144, 0x0, 1
hyprctl keyword monitor DP-3, 2560x1440@144, 2560x0, 1
hyprctl keyword monitor HDMI-A-1, disable
monitors-off is basically same thing but reversed:
#! /bin/bash
hyprctl keyword monitor DP-1, disable
hyprctl keyword monitor DP-3, disable
hyprctl keyword monitor HDMI-A-1, 0x0@60, 1
es-de
I’m still working out some kinks with audio so I don’t wanna go down the rabbit hole hell that is pactl and pavucontrol in this post. But that’s more of a universal Linux gripe I have than distro specific.
Obviously you’ll need to tweak the script to what your specific setup is. The first numbers are x & y axis and the second is refresh rate. This is just an example. It’s also Wayland only but you can do this in x11 no problem
As far as “remotely” switching, I just assigned the scripts to keybinds in the hyprland config file. Super easy.
Adding onto this a bit as I also use a KVM to stream games from my bedroom PC to the living room 4k TV.
Hyprland has been great for this. I used to use KDE, then i3. KDE was a PITA for this setup, no fault of their own it is just fundamentally a different one, and i3 worked to some extent but I was still constantly fiddling with stuff to get audio and video exactly how I wanted to (and to do it easily).
Hyprland just works for me and I love it. I press a keybind and run a script I wrote to turn off my desk monitors, set audio, and launch the emulator front end (emulationstation-DE). Which can also launch all my steam and lutris games, as well as emulators all the way up to PS3 and switch games.
I even mounted a remote start button on the wall and turn my PC on from the other room
Usually something hyper specific. This was a few years ago but I found a very bustling community forum for appliance repair. I posted a question on how to fix my oven and got very detailed answers and technical info involving the circuit board and heating element and troubleshooting steps. Unfortunately the general consensus on there is that for a lot of appliances, the board needs replaced which may or may not be available, and if it is, costs damn near what a new appliance does. Which is obviously done on purpose to drive sales.
The other one I know is my friend will participate on one for modding Toyota Yaris cars.
Bodybuilding / fitness forums are still pretty active.
All of these tend to have subreddit or Lemmy equivalents however.
Either kalamata or green olives. I like green olives with pepperoni, kalamata usually by themselves.
Another all-timer is anchovies + mushroom. It’s basically a fish stew if done the right way
My home is from the 1890s and has a sandstone foundation with no footer. It leaks ground water, but only after a torrential downpour or when a lot of snow melts. Sandstone was not designed to ever be completely watertight. Leaks are incredibly common due to it just being a stack of rocks in the ground.
Luckily it all leaks right into an old grey water line in the floor. It tends to slowly fill up, then makes its way back into the earth either through that or my brick floor.
It can be a little gross and stressful at times but I’m waiting til spring to install a sump pump
One board? Hell no. Circular saw it. If you don’t own a circ saw, buy that instead

I actually made a great setup for retro gaming at home. I have my Linux PC connected to a KVM over LAN to the living room TV. Hyprland lets me set keybinds to run scripts to turn off my computer monitors, turn on the TV, switch audio (still working out a few kinda with audio actually), and then launch emulationstation-DE which is a front end for launching the games on each emulator.
It’s great running everything on a PC with decent specs, I have a 5800x and 6700 XT. It can do all the old games obviously, and up to PS3 and switch games, upscaled to 4K and with a bangin audio system.
Surprisingly, there’s very little latency issues or lag over the kvm. Or if there are I can’t notice them.
It might be worth a go to play the handheld ones on my phone however. Playing GBA and DS games on my big living room TV seems a bit silly haha
Not gonna lie, I struggle to remember to even respond to all my texts

3·1 year agoI played through MGS4 recently on Arch Linux. Lots of community patches, and tinkering with settings. But it was mostly playable. Textures on any kind of screen in-game (like when a character is video chatting you), some of the flashback sequences, and a few random times the NV mode in south America went completely out of whack. But it was enough to look past the issues and enjoy the story and gameplay after playing MGS1-3
I’ve never once heard anyone call it tomato sauce in my neck of the woods in america. It’s always been ketchup.
I live in Pittsburgh however, Heinz is headquartered here and the factory is still operational downtown. Hell, the Steelers football field was called Heinz Field and had giant ketchup bottles by the scoreboards up until a couple years ago.
Must be a regional thing.
