@RcrdSgrd Could you tell more details about the device, name / type and hardware configuration (CPU, RAM, GPU, Screen Size).

I had simply more luck 😉 or did something different. Installation and running debian on different machines, new and old ones, from Dell (Desktops and Laptops), Lenovo (Desktops and Laptops), intel nuc (Desktop) and Terra (Laptop), Razer (Laptop) was without any problems.

A pack of fresh nipples arrived.

Which means its time to install a desktop on this nice old Latitude.

After fixing the Intel Wifi not working because somehow I always have the exact hardware with the bug and not any of the others that don't have a typo in the firmware package filename 👼

#FreeBSD #Laptop #Dell #Latitude #Trackpoint #Bug #Nipple

Skelbiu find. A Dell Latitude E7470 in great condition (trackpoint nipple needs replacing but they cost under €1).

I5-6300 2.4 GHz, 8 GB RAM (plus free socket awaiting the AI bubble bursting), Intel Wifi+Ethernet, matte 14" FHD display, nice keyboard, trackpoint, even the battery has some life left in it and isn't trying to bust out.

Came with a sad story though - sold in a hurry to finance someones hospital stay 😞

Surprisingly, Dell has the nicest and most complete UEFI implementation I've ever seen.

And a clever solution for how to put a proper RJ45 port on a slim computer without having to resort to flimsy folding contraptions.

Habe soeben meinem guten alten #DELL #Latitude E6230 (Bj. 2012) wieder mal aktualisiert.
Ich habe schon seit Erscheinen #Sparky #Linux V8 (Debian Trixie, semirolling) ohne jegliche Probleme auf dem alten Hündchen laufen.
Okay, Prozessorgrafik, nur für Büro, Medien, Kommunikation und Shisen Sho in Gebrauch.
(freue mich schon auf die nächste #Debian #Beta)
Heute habe ich ihm auch den #Kernel 6.14.2 spendiert.
Läuft stabil.
Man gönnt sich ja sonst nix.

Starting in 📆 2025, at least two #European 🇪🇺 launch startups (#IsarAerospace and #RocketFactory Augsburg) expect to offer more choices for both institutional and commercial customers. The field will continue to widen toward the close of the decade, with #MaiaSpace, #Latitude, #HyImpulse, #HyPrSpace, #Orbex, #PLDSpace, and #Skyrora all working toward an inaugural flight of their respective vehicles. https://europeanspaceflight.com/arianegroup-already-working-to-secure-iris2-launch-contract

Dell is rebranding its XPS, Inspiron, and Latitude lines as Dell, Dell Pro, and Dell Pro Max, along with Plus and/or Premium tiers within some of those lines.

#EuropeanSpaceflight 📆 Oct 11, 2023 What could #IsarAerospace, #RocketFactory Augsburg, and #Latitude do with €1.8 billion 💰💰 in funding split three ways over the same period ?

#Ariane 6 is a pill that we’re just going to have to swallow. We cannot cancel the programme and any new development would take several years to mature. What we can do, however, is make sure that #ArianeGroup is not involved 🚫 in the future of European 🇪🇺 #launch https://europeanspaceflight.substack.com/p/arianegroup-wants-210m-per-year-more

I’ve done a couple of #AnimatedGifs of #sunsets before and the conditions seemed right today. The program I used was the #Unix commands #convert and #gifsicle to reduce the image size which produces no #aliasing artefacts that you can get with something like #Gimp. Still, you can see how the #Sun sets at an oblique angle at this #latitude.

One of the most error prone things is that (lat, lon) == (y, x).

The one invented to do it in this particular order is the most evil person in the entire Earth existence. Or the funniest one...

Finally: an article that looks at how the moon and other celestial objects appear when seen from the equator. By the Planetary Society.

"Which way up does the Moon face? Where is its top and bottom? The answer to these questions depends on your latitude."
