You can easily set up "custom alarms" - meaning tell alexa to either "remind me at XXX time to do YYY" it will speak to you remind you twice. Or you can set actually alarms (you can choose different alarm tunes but its common for all) by saying "alexa wake me up at XXX time" but it just rings...

Mainly to use with the ventoy.net tool (for superfast OS installs) - need to plug in and out between my desktop and laptop - both of which have USB4/thunderbolt - though not sure of what kind of compatibility to expect between the three. I have a gen5 ssd in the mobo (about 11-12 GBps...

Yep was looking at https://amzn.in/d/c68hzkl which is 10k - I can wait. It needs to work as a ventoy.net boot drive on the USB-C port(s) (the USB4/thunderbolt one) on my AMD AM5 X670E mobo (Asus) with an SSD like a Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2TB which I have. Hopefully get the full 3 GBps transfer...

Try running the full dbus command as part of the runuser command in your service file Exec param like the following? runuser -l myusername -c 'dbus-send --session --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.SessionManager /org/gnome/SessionManager org.gnome.SessionManager.Shutdown' ...

@Party Monger can you link to that high-speed USB4/Thunderbolt enclosure you recently mentioned you got?

Sure, you're welcome - this also helps me learn this stuff haha. For some reason I couldn't find the actual GNOME wiki or link where the actual docs for this DBUS API, just when I searched I got some random posts (like on stackexchange) that pointed to similar solutions. Remember, for...

I loved this old CGI sci-fi flick called "Final Fantasy - The Spirits Within"... with characters voiced by the likes of Alec Baldwin etc.

I wish India also gets some good deals if not BF then some year-end and/or diwali next year. So were the slow motion (high fps) video clips that I posted not showing the flicker properly on my oled monitor?

It's actually sitting idle mostly - not enough spare time to fully experiment with it o_O

I guess it seems okay to me... what about you? The flicker behind the monitor is the fan and light. It was 8x so I guess around 200 fps - does it specifically need to be 240 fps videos??? See: and

Anyone using corporate edition of Warp? Not necessarily phone app but desktop app? Is it still working for you?

I believe those are word for the letters in the level A=Apprentice, yours F=follower, mine J=Journeyman etc...

Yayyy my monitor FTW!

Ah ok yeah it would be the same as shutdown now command... Perhaps there is a different DBus service like org.gnome.SessionManager.xxx that will prompt in the UI...? . Something like this? (If it doesn't work, ensure wherever you call this, it's in the same user's context) dbus-send --session...

Not facing any issues, just thought if it helps "clean" the power incoming to the PC, monitor etc. then I might try it. But it seems it doesn't work that way - just reduces the external magnetic field / interference - so not really any kind of "protection" for appliances - so dropped the idea...

Welcome! I'm supposedly a developer too. Tried learning Rust but it just makes my head ache o_O will maybe try again some day. Go is another lang on my bucket list. Cheers.

I respectfully beg to differ. Yes, it perhaps reduces the level of security but not defeats it. If your laptop is lost/stolen your data is still encrypted.

This is the product page -> https://in.msi.com/Monitor/MAG-321UP-QD-OLED You need to call/email gtek.in contact details - they're not online store. I couldn't find the product listed on other online places like amazon, (yet) - you can also try contacting via MSI "where to buy" page...

Will something like this work for power cables of PC, monitor and other gadgets/appliances? See https://amzn.in/d/eEJVaYk
