Great, thanks! Tried it and works like a charm.

This probably is a simple question, but I would like to know if this works before I try. I have very simple script to update (Debian, apt and Rust toolchain) my system using a touchscreen. But when apt wants to update I have to agree with a "Y" and a password. Now I remember from ms-dos times...

As a newbie myself, I dare say: welcome!

I bet this isn't exactly what the OP had in mind, but yes, you can have a Linux tablet. This one is a Raspberry Pi 4B, 8GB, a SSD as (system) drive, external battery pack able to support for about 8 hours. A small touchscreen and you have a working tablet. In my case I have added a mouse for...

My employer has made Co-pilot available (the "ask questions" variant) to experiment and see if it may be useful in our work. I must say I am impressed by ChatGPT 4, and equally disappointed by Co-pilot. So, no, I will not move to Windows 11 for it :)

Ran NewDos/80 on my 48K machine yesterday. But I bet that doesn't count :)

Open, accessible for the user/programmer, I could do anything with it. You could do calls via int 21h to the O/S but if you wanted you could also access the...

I think the more knowledgable people have already given their suggestions, so I will only say what I know from my limited experience: I started with Pi OS, which is Debian for the Raspberry Pi. I like it, but probably one reason is that I know it by now, more or less. On my eeePC (an old mini...

Thank you!

Not yet, I did get around Asylum though

I straten with dBase III, but I didn't think anyone would know the difference anyway :D

I do believe it should, but it doesn't

I tried both Scrot and import, the first creates a picture that is completely black, the second doesn't seem to do anything

Unfortunately we will have to call it a typing error. I forgot the "not" :D
