Laptop with good webcam
  • I'm using an app to use my Android phone as a webcam, which works great (good low light performance!) provided I can stand it up somewhere above my laptop screen (finicky). You can accidentally knock it over. Might be worth considering if you don't use the camera much - otherwise an external one will probably attach better and he more stable

  • RustDesk (FOSS easy to use TeamViewer alternative) has experimental Wayland support that needs testing!
  • Not recommending against RustDesk - it is a very cool project - but regarding the "Why?", you could use a VPN or something like Tailscale which has MagicDNS that'll resolve hostnames of computers to their local IP address. You can use this with GNOME's RDP server to remote in from another device pretty easily.

  • The Dangerous Rise of GPS Attacks
  • I believe they're available as backup but re-calibrate themselves with GPS coordinates if available. This is not a problem when GPS jamming is used but becomes an issue with spoofing - the pilots need to monitor for it.

    I think they talk about it in this video by flightradar24 somewhere: https://youtu.be/4dG_Whxzdkk

  • Dell laptops have mostly just worked on Linux quite well, but you may run into issues with the camera, however this hack(?) has worked for me: https://github.com/stefanpartheym/archlinux-ipu6-webcam.

    I believe Dell has a catch for the camera saying that it may use more CPU when in use. Whilst the laptop is Ubuntu Certified, the camera only works if you select the Ubuntu option instead of Windows, and use the install they give you.

    Some other nice things to have:

  • It's official: Evernote will restrict free users to 50 notes | TechCrunch
  • re: OneNote

    Although not a replacement for OneNote on Windows 10/OneNote in Microsoft 365, you can get Waydroid and run OneNote's Android app with it.

    I don't have a stylus so I'm not able to check if everything works, but if it does, it'll hopefully feel better than the web client, which wasn't able to keep up with stylus strokes last time I checked. The number of pens is lacking though, even the iPadOS version is better...
