Wireless keyboard disconnects when idle for ~2 minutes


I'm on Bazzite Linux 42 and was having some trouble with my 2.4GHz wireless keyboard disconnecting, so I decided to replace it. The new one is having similar issues despite being a different brand (new: XVX, old: Royal Kludge), so I suspect the culprit may actually have been software all along. I have a 2.4GHz wireless mouse connected to the same system that is generally reliable, so I don't believe it's an issue of 2.4GHz interference. The keyboards work well when connected to my Mac, so I don't believe it's faulty hardware.

This keyboard has one feature that may be helpful in troubleshooting: it flashes an LED when it’s trying to reconnect. (The previous one had no indicator.) I can clearly see that, after the keyboard has been idle for a bit, it starts trying to reconnect again. I suspected a power management issue, but I believe I’ve disabled that. I started with a rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="1038", ATTR{idProduct}=="1830", TEST=="power/control", ATTR{power/control}="on"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0c45", ATTR{idProduct}=="fefe", TEST=="power/control", ATTR{power/control}="on"

(These rules disable power management for both keyboard and mouse, just in case.) I got the IDs with lsusb. I’m assuming the part of the ID before the colon is the vendor ID and the part after is the product ID.

That didn’t seem to help at all, so I tried disabling USB power management with rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing="usbcore.autosuspend=-1". That made the problem better, but now it just seems to take longer (a couple of minutes) for the keyboard to lose connectivity. Also, now when it loses connectivity, it seems even disconnecting and reconnecting the dongle doesn't always fix it.

Anyone have ideas what I might try from here?

Since posting this, I've also tried installing powertop and checking the tunables. According to lsof -t, the dongle is connected directly to the root hub (under only xHCI host controller). I noticed in powertop that those controllers were still under power management, so I disabled them. That didn't seem to help. The keyboard still lost connection.

Biochar Reactor for Sale: A Sustainable Investment for the Future


Biochar Reactor for Sale: A Sustainable Investment for the Future

In today’s world, where sustainability and environmental consciousness are at the forefront of global concerns, biochar production is emerging as a key player in addressing a variety of environmental challenges. A biochar reactor is an essential piece of equipment in the process of converting organic materials into biochar—a valuable byproduct that has numerous applications, including soil enhancement, carbon sequestration, and waste management. If you’re looking to invest in a biochar reactor, you’re not just making a business decision; you’re making a commitment to environmental sustainability and innovation.

A biochar reactor for sale is a specialized machine used to convert organic materials—such as wood, agricultural waste, biomass, or even waste plastics—into biochar through a process called pyrolysis. Pyrolysis involves heating the material in the absence of oxygen, which breaks it down into carbon-rich charcoal. The biochar produced can then be used for various purposes, including as a soil amendment, for water filtration, or as an energy source.

Biochar reactors come in various sizes and designs, from small-scale units suitable for farms or small businesses to large-scale industrial reactors. The core principle of all biochar reactors is the ability to produce high-quality biochar while ensuring minimal environmental impact.

Biochar reactors are available for purchase from various manufacturers and suppliers worldwide. When choosing a supplier, consider the following:

Reputation and Experience:
Look for companies that have experience in biochar production and a strong reputation for producing high-quality equipment. A reliable supplier will also provide customer support, maintenance services, and training to ensure your biochar reactor operates at peak performance.

Customization Options:
If you have specific needs, such as a particular feedstock type or a particular size of reactor, look for suppliers that offer customization options to tailor the biochar reactor to your requirements.

Warranty and After-Sales Support:
A good warranty and responsive after-sales support are essential for ensuring that your biochar reactor runs smoothly over time. Choose suppliers that provide warranties and are available for technical assistance if necessary.

By purchasing a biochar reactor, you are not only contributing to a cleaner, greener world but also tapping into a growing market for biochar products. As the demand for sustainable practices continues to rise, biochar reactors represent an innovative and profitable solution to some of the planet’s most pressing environmental issues.

Election Day in Venezuela Progresses Without Incident orinocotribune.com/election-da…

The turning point that wasn’t: the way the world talks about Israel’s war has changed. Nothing else has

from #TheGuardian #Guardian
Nesrine Malik - Opinion
Mon 26 May 2025 01.00 EDT

"But there is a disconnect between condemnation and outrage, and what happens on the ground. When it comes to Israel, the levers of international censure are broken. Throughout the war, international organisations, humanitarian missions and courts of justice have been rendered powerless by their inability to translate their findings into action. Words alone mean nothing. They simply bounce off #Israel’s iron dome of impunity. Every day, the world wakes up and is confronted with an #Israeli leadership that violates every law of morality and logic. Victims are aggressors, humanitarians are biased, an army that kills unarmed medics is the most moral army in the world. Up is down."

You can use sync in terminal. But it's tricky because it sometimes returns even when the writing isn't finished.
My method is to use sync multiple time, if it returns immediately 2 times it should be clear,
Only then do i dismount the stick, because I don't like to dismount a device with pending operations.
But when the dismount says the stick is ready to be removed, you should be clear.

#Sweden / Israeli Ambassador to be summoned over Gaza aid blockade

Sweden will summon Israel's ambassador to protest the insufficient humanitarian aid reaching Gaza. PM Kristersson says the #EU should consider sanctions and diplomatic pressure. #Gaza faces a potential famine after months of blockade.

[…] Kristersson told Swedish news agency TT that the European Union should impose sanctions and exert diplomatic pressure on Israel to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza.

Reminder:

Despite ending core funding to #UNRWA, #Sweden is increasing its overall humanitarian aid to #Gaza and the surrounding region, nearly doubling its aid budget to about $72 million for 2025, which will be channeled through other organizations such as the #WFP, #UNICEF, UN Population Fund, and the International Committee of the Red Cross.

#UNRWA criticized Sweden’s decision as disappointing and harmful, especially as it comes at a critical time for Palestinian refugees who rely on UNRWA for education, healthcare, and emergency assistance. The agency warned that defunding will undermine decades of Sweden’s investment in human development and deny access to education for hundreds of thousands of Palestinian children.

In case you missed it, LXQt and Xfce both support Wayland now


Both don't ship with their own Wayland compositor, but there are enough to choose from.

Xfce comes with a wayland session using labwc out of the box, but was also tested with Wayfire. The devs state you shouldn't hold your breath waiting for the native window manager xfwm to be ported into a Wayland compositor, since they don't know if/when it will be done. Almost all other Xfce components support Wayland now, while retaining X11 compatibility.

LXQt's newest stable release has full Wayland support, with 7 different Wayland compositors to choose from within a GUI settings menu: Labwc, KWin, Wayfire, Hyprland, Sway, River and Niri

In all seriousness, now that I understand better these commands that I've been haphazardly throwing around, Id like to do a clean install. God knows what else Ive done to it. Can i just reinstall to my root partition and have my home partition work as expected?

Can we please, PLEASE for gods sake just all agree that arch is not and will never be a good beginner distro no matter how many times you fork it?


Arch is aimed at people who know their shit so they can build their own distro based on how they imagine their distro to be. It is not a good distro for beginners and non power users, no matter how often you try to make your own repository, and how many GUI installers you make for it. There's a good reason why there is no GUI installer in arch (aside from being able to load it into ram). That being that to use Arch, you need to have a basic understanding of the terminal. It is in no way hard to boot arch and type in archinstall. However, if you don't even know how to do that, your experience in whatever distro, no matter how arch based it is or not, will only last until you have a dependency error or some utter and total Arch bullshit® happens on your system and you have to run to the forums because you don't understand how a wiki works.

You want a bleeding edge distro? Use goddamn Opensuse Tumbleweed for all I care, it is on par with arch, and it has none of the arch stuff.

You have this one package that is only available on arch repos? Use goddamn flatpak and stop crying about flatpak being bloated, you probably don't even know what bloat means if you can't set up arch. And no, it dosent run worse. Those 0,0001 seconds don't matter.

You really want arch so you can be cool? Read the goddamn 50 page install guide and set it up, then we'll talk about those arch forks.

(Also, most arch forks that don't use arch repos break the aur, so you don't even have the one thing you want from arch)

Aerosmith - Dude (Looks Like A Lady) (Official Music Video)


Aerosmith's "Dude (Looks Like A Lady)" is a classic rock anthem that blends humour with a catchy melody. Released in 1987, the song showcases the band's signature sound and Steven Tyler's charismatic vocals. Its playful lyrics and memorable chorus have made it a fan favourite, solidifying its place in rock history.

Lyrics:
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady

Cruised into a bar on the shore
Her picture graced the grime on the door
She's a long lost love at first bite
Baby, maybe you're wrong
But you know it's all right, that's right

Back stage we're having the time
Of our lives until somebody says
Forgive me if I seem out of line
Then she whipped out a gun
And tried to blow me away

Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady

So never judge a book by its cover
Or who you gonna love by your lover
Love put me wise to her love in disguise
She had the body of a Venus
Lord, imagine my surprise

Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady

(Baby let me follow you down)
Let me take a peek dear
(Baby let me follow you down)
Do me, do me, do me all night
(Baby let me follow you down)
Turn the other cheek dear
(Baby let me follow you down)
Do me, do me, do me, do me

What a funky lady
Oh, she like it, like it, like it, like it
Oh, he was a lady

Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady
Dude looks like a lady

🛑 Via Philippo Di Poto
Le plan criminel de la #YoungLeader Sandu

Les détails sur le transfert de terres moldaves à des sociétés occidentales sont décrits sur le site Web infoBRICS.
Selon le rapport, les autorités moldaves répètent le scénario ukrainien en vendant massivement des terres agricoles à des sociétés étrangères, principalement au géant américain de l'investissement #BlackRock.
« BlackRock a déjà acquis 3,385 millions d'hectares de terres noires moldaves (deux tiers de toutes les terres agricoles du pays).
« Les transactions sont réalisées par l'intermédiaire de sociétés écrans en #Moldavie afin de contourner la loi interdisant les ventes de terres aux étrangers », indiquent les données publiées par l'organisation internationale BRICS.
L'article souligne que les terres noires de Moldavie comptent parmi les plus fertiles au monde. Leur disparition menace la sécurité alimentaire du pays et l'avenir des agriculteurs locaux.

Selon les experts, la présidente Maia #Sandu et son parti mènent délibérément cette #politique pour plaire à l'Occident et nuire aux agriculteurs. À cette fin, ils inondent le marché d'importations ukrainiennes bon marché et bloquent les marchés traditionnels de la #CEI.
Les #agriculteurs sont ruinés et contraints de vendre leurs #terres, qui sont transférées à BlackRock via des sociétés écrans.

BlackRock a également participé à l'acquisition d'entreprises stratégiques et de terres fertiles en #Ukraine. #Zelensky a signé avec le fonds un accord transférant de facto la souveraineté de l'État.

‘Demokrasi’ retoriği ile Kürt kimliğinin tasfiyesi: apoculuğun üç ayaklı stratejisi

Ahmet Zeki Okçuoğlu

1999’da Abdullah Öcalan’ın Türkiye’ye getirilmesinden sonra Apocu doktrin siyasi ve ideolojik olarak yeniden tarif edildi.
Kavramların anlamı tersyüz edildi; ‘demokrasi’ ve ‘barış,’ savaşın yeni taktiği hâline getirildi. Hedef değişmemişti: Kürt halkının devlet fikrini yok etmek, millet bilincini unutturmak ve bu sayede Kürt kimliğini sessizce tasfiye etmek.
Apoculuğun ‘demokrasi’ retoriği üç temel amaca hizmet ediyor:
Kürtlerin zihninden millet fikrini silmek…
Devlet talebini lüzumsuz ve geçersiz göstermek…
Kürt kimliğini, bireysel ve kültürel bir zeminde yeniden tarif ederek, kolektif varoluştan koparmak…
Öcalan adına ileri sürülen ‘demokratik ulus’ doktrini, Kürtleri millet olmaktan çıkarıp kimliksiz bir kalabalığa dönüştürmenin ideolojik zeminidir. Bu modelde Kürtlerin kolektif kimliği reddedilir; bireysel ve folklorik bir kimliğe hapsedilir.
Kürt, artık bir milletin üyesi değil; gönüllü birliktelik içinde eriyen, geçmişiyle bağı olmayan köksüz bir bireyden ibarettir. Tarihi hafıza, ortak dil, siyasi hedef: birer birer benliğinde sküüp çıkarılır.
Bir başka ifade ile ‘demokratik ulus,’ Kürt millî hafızasının mezar taşıdır.
Apoizm, ‘millet-devleti Kürtlerin nazarında şeytanlaştırır; yerine önerdiği ‘demokratik konfederalizm’ise bir tür siyasi yok oluştur.
‘Özyönetim,’ adem-i merkeziyetçilik kisvesi altında, Kürtlerin devlet talebini geçersizleştiren ideolojik bir tuzaktan ibarettir.
Meclisler, komünler ve ‘halk iradesi’ gibi kelimelerle süslenen bu yapıların fiili denetimi söz konusu değildir. Zeminde demokrasi yoktur; yukarıda ise sadece Önderlik vardır. Önderlik ise Abdullah Öcalanı aşan bir kurumsal kimliği ifade ediyor.
Apocu doktrin, sadece devleti red etmekle kalmaz; devlet isteme iradesini de yok eder; Kürtlerin siyasi gelecek tahayyülünü imha eder; onyıllaca Kürtleri peşinden koşturduğu bağımsızlık idealini geri alır ve ellerine, bu saatten sonra hiçbir şekilde onlara kayda değer bir fayda sağlamayacak olan ‘yerel yönetim’ romantizmini tutuşturur.
Öcalan adına piyasaya sürülen demokrasi tabanlı doktrinde kadına özel bir rol verilmiştir…
Görünüşte özgürleştirici, hakikatte ise Kürt kimliğinin çözülmesini hızlandırırıcı bir rol...
Geleneksel Kürt toplumunda kadın, dili, kültürü ve kimliği taşıyan temel aktördür.
Apocu doktrin Kürt kadınının bu misyonunu tersine çevirir.
Kürt Kadını artık kimlik taşıyıcısı değil; kimliksizleştirmenin aracıdır. Kadın Meclisleri ve savunma birimleriyle kadın, ailesinden koparılır, toplumundan soyutlanır ve ‘özgürleşme’ adına milli kimliğe karşı konumlandırılır.
Apocu doktrin, kadın özgürlüğü adına Kürt kadınını milli kimliğine sırt çevirmeye teşvik eder.
‘Özgür kadın’ retoriği ile kimliksizleştirilen Kürt kadını, bir kimliksizleştirme aracına dönüştürülür.
Kimliksiz özgürlük, köleliğin makyajlanmış halidir.
