depending on what you see as "relatively modern", you can check out "project sandcastle" which lets you run postmarketOS (and thus linux) on the iPhone. Kinda tethered but it runs


Well, technically it can!

> tmux -c $DOOM


Try right clicking on the .app file/folder and click on "Open" in the context menu, this normally skips the trip to the preferences and offers you the "Open anyway" option


I got a slight feeling that most equipment runs on windows. Could also be wrong.


From what I know in the industry, Windows for the UI and some real time OS for control like VxWorks.

But things are changing and linux is getting some traction.

The healthcare industry is very slow moving (as it should be).


All this stuff is constantly moving, but I bet things in the future will be RT Linux plus some RTOS-drive microcontrollers for specific hardware and safety stuff. That's where everyone is heading to.


Windows is common from what I've seen. When I did a brief interview with Abbott Medical Devices in the 2010s, Windows experience was mentioned.


sadly there's also a lot of QNX :(


Ah QNX, one of the few remaining vestiges of the microkernel.

I know it's not foss, and I'm aware of mach, but QNX still holds a place in my heart.


get a zigbee stick and set an old PC/server up with home-assistant.io (i use conbee 2 stick)


Hardtechno, Schranz and German Hardtekk. Always makes me feel like I'm a superhuman and can power through the Pull Requests


Just reading the page provoked me to think about the way I work with the terminal. I'm definitely going to try it out later


I just tried it with a local newspaper, it did remove the floating pane but didn't unblur and the text is also scrambled (used to be way worse protected, firefox reader mode could easily bypass it)

Oh yeah, used this method to bypass a regional paywalled news site until they fixed it by sending out scrambled text that seems random enough to not be a cipher ("Zc xjixc Axiäclxiqcil jcqlxi ljx Zxcxqjxiqxi cc")


Yeah, colleagues have happened once, then never again. I use a Laptop with a Dockingstation for work and take the Laptop home with me every time I leave so I would have noticed if this would have happened.

When home, I always have to lock or my cat would typeeeeeeeeawww
