I recently created a handful of scripts for polybar, to add some missing functionality that I wanted.

• VPN status
• dual battery info
• connected bluetooth devices
• available package updates

Thought I might share, in case anyone finds them useful or wants to modify them for other use cases.

Cheers!

WASHINGTON—Warning that interior defenses were spread too thin, experts confirmed this week that Team USA’s arrival in France for the Olympics had left America’s own basketball rims largely unguarded. “In a strategic blunder of historic proportions, the U.S. men’s national basketball team landing in Paris has left an uncontested path to the basket,” said national security expert Emmett Stein, explaining that Americans lacked the necessary shot blockers and bigs to protect the paint on courts at home. “At the current moment, our nation is woefully vulnerable to foreign threats against basketball rims on its own shores. A foreign player with a basketball at the top of the key could drive for an easy layup with little resistance.” At press time, America was devastated after foreign basketball adversaries attacked a domestic rim with a tomahawk dunk.

I was reading about Dungeon Meshi and Kuro, the "kobold".

Kobolds are usually depicted as canine humanoids in Japanese media compared to the more reptilian humanoids that kobolds are depicted as in western media[4] such as Dungeons and Dragons. The reason for this is credited as either a mistranslation of the first Dungeons and Dragons Monster Manual[5] or because of the lack of reference art in said Monster Manual, but a picture of a jackalwere being present on the opposite page[6], which was then used as reference art for the anime, The Record of the Lodoss War. That anime is credited for solidifying the trope of canine kobolds in Japanese media.

How to update BIOS on a system that only use Linux as OS.

Asking this because some clowns at Acer decided that they will only provide BIOS updates through Windows Update.

Edit: I'm not talking about installing the BIOS file. They don't even provide BIOS file in the first place.

Da sottolineare la stima di Francesco Biamonti per Jean Giono, questo grande scrittore della Provenza, tanto é vero che nel 2010 ci fu a San Biagio della Cima (IM) un convegno dal titolo "Gli amici di Francesco Biamonti incontrano Les Amis de Jean Giono". Certe luci, certi colori, certe montagne di Manosque (dove dimorava stabilmente Giono, che però ambientava le sue opere di autentico grande livello in altre parti della Provenza e non solo) che ricordano il nostro entroterra: e quella posizione geografica (solo per citare, la montagna della Lure, la Durance, la Bleone) trova a mio avviso in Pierre Magnan (forse per i più non eccelso autore, ma pur sempre amico di Giono) un sincero e convincente cantore. Di Giono dirò, infine, che con "L'affare Dominici" seppe condurre una coraggiosa inchiesta giornalistica dai toni elegiaci - purtroppo non coronata da successo - contro storture poliziesche e giudiziarie che si esercitavano proprio dalle sue parti. E mi preme ricordare ancora per contrappasso l'umanità di certi suoi gendarmi di metà Ottocento, che si muovevano a cavallo in notti di tregenda a ponente del Rodano.

As far as I can tell, the only platform that I found with medium level of reliability is metacritic.

I tried Letterboxd, Serializd, IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes, all of them tend to be very unreliable.

Is there is any other platform that has reliable ratings/reviews?
