I can now confirm that it's a Thai keyboard on qwerty. Just searched thai keyboard on ddg and they are similar to mine. Thanks for the hint.

So, does it mean that this laptop was initially sold in Thailand? I wonder who imported it.

@Hareguizer

I've applied silicone grease between nib unit and the pen. I think air was getting through that part. I don't see any more burping for now.

@janneke The anti-GNU assembly is entirely anti-GNU.

Just because you think it is not, does not mean it is. And your numbers are lottery tickets ...

Nobody is denying that there are problems, the issue is how one addresses them .. threatening people, harassing people, constantly attacking people .. which the anti-GNU assembly has been doing.

The fountain pen I've been using for months with the same ink and same paper suddenly started to burp today every 3-4 lines I write with it. This happens irrespective of the ink level in it.

I don't know what's the issue with it.

@ark74 I don't find it compelling at all.

We've had democratic governance structures such as #sociocracy that "protect" for hostile takeover of values for over 100 years now.

Using the straw man of hostile takeover to excuse authoritarianism is extremely ignorant at best.

Definitely not Bengali. বাংলা আমি খুব ভালই চিনি।😉 (TL from Bengali: I know Bengali very well)

Why?

@kskarthik

I see some south Indian scripts on the keyboard, but I don't know the exact language.

My previous laptop broke, it's currently in repair shop. I had to get a new one, so I've bought this pre-owned laptop instead of buying a new. I've updated the h-node database: https://h-node.org/notebooks/view/en/2398/HP-ProBook-650-G4/1/1/undef/undef/undef/undef/compatibility/undef/undef/undef

My family and friends are biased against pre-owned electronics devices and they tried to convince me real hard to get a new one.

I didn't want to pay that much money for a new one especially when I can't even test it for free software compatibility before buying. In the case of this pre-owned one, seller allowed me to test with #Trisquel and any other distro of my choice. They even helped me to disable the secure boot as I was unable to find the settings.

@Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com @icedquinn@blob.cat @bonifartius@qoto.org @sally@freesoftwareextremist.com I mean to be fair, before attended the GNU Boot install party at 38C3 I was still running Libreboot 2016 on my Thinkpad.

Simply because I was lazy and it just worked and I didn't have any good reason to update it to a newer version.

Today I've discovered a crack at the bottom of the barrel of my latest Click Aristocrat pen. Ink is leaking out of it. I can still use it with converter that came with the pen.

I had bought that pen less than 6 months ago.

@kskarthik

They are so shitty that they are even blocking my porting requests while I'm in that "family plan".

@shellheim

No. If you are recommending me airtel xstream, then I've had enough with postpaid plans. I'll stick with prepaid, at least I can switch anytime I want.

My Telecom Operator Vi giving me a really hard time quitting their "Family Plan".

@mcsinyx

Thanks for sharing.

Happy GNU year everyone!

Makes sense.
