Looking for a 2-in-1 with good linux compatibility to daily drive, should I avoid OLED displays? - sh.itjust.works

I’m looking for such a device: - 2-in-1 laptop, or at least a laptop with a touchscreen (optimally also with a stylus) - 14 or 15 inch screen - Good battery life (thus probably intel CPU/GPU) and lightweight - Optimally not a thinkpad because I don’t use the trackpoint and I prefer to tap the touchpad instead of clicking physical keys. The candidates I’m currently interested in are lenovo yoga 7i 14/15 and asus zenbook 2-in-1s, but they all use OLED displays (I heard that yoga 7i has IPS versions but they are not available in my region). For these devices is OLED a problem with linux? Mostly, does linux’s software-only dimming make battery life worse? And are there ways to avoid burn-in risks? (I’m using wayland compositor niri) If OLED is a true concern, are there relatively new LCD 2-in-1 models with good linux support and battery life?

Interal microphone "unplugged" and not working on Dell Inspiron 14 7440 running newest ubuntu desktop - sh.itjust.works

The internal microphone doesn’t work on my Dell Inspiron 14 7440 running ubuntu, though it is recognized on windows and I remember it working before I reinstalled the ubuntu system. When I open sound settings, the app doesn’t recognize the internal microphone: Screenshot [https://i.imgur.com/0XjM3wr.png] I ran alsamixer (newest version) in the terminal and didn’t see the internal microphone, this is what it looked like: This screenshot shows all devices listed in alsamixer. [https://i.imgur.com/R2IsDMJ.png]) I also looked at pavucontrol and the app shows the internal microphone as “unplugged”: Screenshot [https://i.imgur.com/W2UDMEi.png] How can I get the microphone working?

Does the NPU in Dell's "AI PC"s work on Linux? - sh.itjust.works

I’m planning to buy an Inspiron or XPS model and install Linux on it, and I’d like to run neural networks accelerated by its NPU. Are there available drivers for the NPU in these models that supports debian or ubuntu-based systems?

Any recommendations for FOSS alternatives to notability? (for intel mac) - sh.itjust.works

The main features I want are: - Import PDFs and annotate them in the app’s native format (so that I’ll still be able to remove previous changes after I save and re-open it) - Quickly add text boxes anywhere on the PDF - Draw some basic shapes and lines with different colors (can either be notability-style “draw and hold to make shape” or just a classic “insert shapes” option from the toolbar) - Have a page thumbnail option and can search text in the PDF file and quickly go there

I made an anarchychess bot based on claude-instant - sh.itjust.works

Bot link: https://poe.com/Anarchychess-bot [https://poe.com/Anarchychess-bot] This bot is made to talk in anarchychess-style, which makes it great at generating memes and copypastas. It can also give humorous comments on chess gameplay (though it sometimes hallucinates). I made it based on claude-instant because claude is better than ChatGPT at creative writing. Some screenshots: Asking bot to google en passant: [https://i.imgur.com/180H2BX.png] Bot’s reaction to “literally 1984” (couldn’t think of other memes at the time): [https://i.imgur.com/wGbXpXK.png] Bot’s reaction to a copypasta: [https://i.imgur.com/S55A3mj.png] The first four moves of a chess game against the bot: [https://i.imgur.com/3kvif7P.png] [https://i.imgur.com/AciAEVN.png] [https://i.imgur.com/0mReEUg.png]

Password autofill not working on librewolf

Password autofill not working on librewolf - sh.itjust.works

I just switched from firefox to librewolf and I imported the autofill passwords through a csv file, but autofill isn’t working when I log into websites (the autofill option doesn’t show up when I click into “enter password”) and I have to manually copy the passwords from about:logins. How do I fix that?
