I was saying that their are more honest ways of presenting these women’s accomplishments rather than saying the web wouldn’t exist.

Yes, I see your point. But despite me being a non native English speaker I figure (And I could be totally wrong) the "No web without women" can be interpreted in more than one way. It could also mean that in computer history women deserve to have their place be known to the public rather than forgotten or completely ignored or downplayed.

Guess you are booting from USB stick or SD card, and then want to use the NVMe drive with LUKS ? I have a pi4 here which works fine with FreeBSD booting from USB stick, and then I've attached a USB drive and have Geli disk encryption on that which I am quite happy with. I don't know how things are with FreeBSD and a pi5 though.Maybe it needs some time.

Amarok has been around for a long time. I've never used it much but I remember the name.

The road to 3.0 has not been a short one. Much of the Qt5/KF5 porting was done in 2015 already, but finishing and polishing everything up has been a slow, sometimes ongoing and sometimes stalled process ever since.

Wow. Almost 10 years for the polishing porting to Qt5, and now KDE based on Qt6 has just been released. I didn't know that Amarok supported scripting, interesting (Imagine having a cronjob or systemd timer to slowly fade away the music).

I don’t mind as much when supporting equitable efforts but it always bugs me when anyone claims something wouldn’t exist without X like nobody else contributed and/or advancements wouldn’t have been made without a specific individual

Well, you know. Few months ago I read an interview with a classical music performer.This woman wanted to perform some music by Alma Mahler. The organizing concert hall directors replied with : "Why don't play some music of her husband ?" (??????). When reading some more about the Mahler couple I read that the later famous Gustav Mahler demanded that his wife (Alma) would give up all musical aspirations. In that time that was not such an unusual thing but it did break her mentally. Still Alma Mahler has imho composed some beautiful music. My point is that it can be tempting in a male dominated world to be silent and hold back and "normalize" the male domination. Have a look at classical music and see the famous names : Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, Bach, Ravell, Satie, and the list can go on and on. Think of a famous female in classical music ? Clara Wieck-Schumann is the only name I can think of right now, and when listening to music streams on the Internet or the radio, Clara's music will not be heard very often. There's stereotypes playing a role, even in our "modern" times. Someone wrote "How come that harp players are always women ?" If you search on YouTube it is obvious that not many men play the harp. A bit similar is with electric guitars. Decades ago a female playing guitar was pretty uncommon. What does that have to do with women and technology. For example, the TCP protocol is from ages ago. I can imagine that women were not encouraged or even stopped from being in the spotlight when it comes to technology. Male domination should be acknowledged, especially in history. After all, history is still taught at school, isn't it ? (This is my "rambling" to all readers, not just a reply to the previous comment)

Oh, I see, t y!

No problem at all. I can try to measure this with a socket wattmeter I have lying around.

The power implications aren’t likely to he a deal breaker, but I do love the idea of operating an application server at approx 7W (that said, the same power envelope is also achievable on certain x86-64 home server platforms now).

Right.Meanwhile the on-board Ethernet port could become more reliable with newer software or some tweaks ?

😀

I’m guessing the power implications here are minimal as well?

That's an interesting point I didn't think about.I don't know and I have no gadget to test that.

Actually once I've left the USB Ethernet adapter in a smart phone and forgot to take it out (but I did take the Ethernet cable out). The next day I saw that the phone had used a lot of battery power.I guess the phone kept talking to the adapter and the build in small light.I have one adapter without a light so I can test how much battery that would roughly consume, just out of curiosity.

I thought I'd put some image here for fun (where sign at a car parking place is taken over) , after all the comments about bigger and smaller cars (I thought I would see bikers and bike friendly people here but there's all kind of car owners!). No problem to remove my post if more people dislike it.

I see, t y.Now I understand the previous comment about Spider Man.

I remember I had a 386 with or without co-processor.Later upgraded to a luxury 486!Wow.That brings back a lot of memories.Floppy disks, text consoles. 🙂
