Matrix let-down
I’ve been trying to use Matrix to replace sites like Discord or Slack. But it seems that if a user creates an invitation-only room in a server, then invited users who are registered on other servers get errors when trying to join. Not very useful error messages either: “Failed to join room”. (In my case, I tried creating...
What gamepad?
So for the past couple of years (… coming on a decade?) I’ve liked the 8bitdo controllers a lot. Build consistency is a bit of a shitshow but you can tell almost instantly if you have one of the bad ones (and it is usually a matter of just loosening one screw unless the PCB itself is cracked).

Solved: It’s used by members and/or supporters of Les Soulèvements de la Terre, a French radical ecologist movement disbanded by Macron’s right-wing government.
If the US stayed out of other countries politics and there were no coups or installation of people favorable to the US what would the world look like?

[discussion] DC (direct current) power network
As we all know, AC won the “War of the Currents”. The reasoning behind this is that AC voltage is easy to convert up/down with just a ring of iron and two coils. And high voltage allows us to transport current over longer distances, with less loss....

Closure of exponentiation of real algebraic numbers.
Given two real, nonzero algebraic numbers a and b, with a > 0 (so that it excludes complex numbers), is there any named subset of the reals S such that (a^b) belongs to S forall a,b? I know it’s not all the reals since there should be countably many a^b’s, since a,b are also countable.
Is WattOS open source?
I’m incredibly close to pulling the trigger to make WattOS my new distro for my netbook. I’ve been using antiX for a while and it’s really great overall but the lack of systemd has worn me down I feel.
