These little ejector tools are useful for more than just SIM cards. CD/DVD ROM drives have force eject buttons inside tiny little holes that these can reach and push. Many hardware reset buttons are also hidden inside tiny holes.
You could use an unfolded paperclip in a pinch. One of my air purifiers has a reset button inside a hole that is slightly too thin for the paper lips I have on hand. But the SIM ejector tool I keep around fits perfectly.
Long story short, I have a desktop with Fedora, lovely, fast, sleek and surprisingly reliable for a near rolling distro (it failed me only once back around Fedora 34 or something where it nuked Grub). Tried to install on a 2012 i7 MacBook Air… what a slog!!! Surprisingly Ubuntu runs very smooth on it. I have been bothering all...
Flatpaks can also be used to run CLI programs, but it requires using flatpak run <package.name> instead of using the apps standard CLI command. But you can create an alias and should work mostly the same way.
For example, I have neovim on my Debian laptop via flatpak. So in order to run it, you have to do
<span style="color:#323232;">flatpak run io.neovim.nvim
</span>
You can create an alias for that command
<span style="color:#323232;">alias nvim='flatpak run io.neovim.nvim'
</span>
What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?
I’ve been using Linux Mint since forever. I’ve never felt a reason to change. But I’m interested in what persuaded others to move.
I lose mine last month :( (telegra.ph)
What's your automatic vacuum's name? (lemmy.world)
I saw a couple of fun ones somewhere else, and it got me interested. My mom calls her’s: Mr de Vries...
Is Ubuntu deserving the hate? (lemmy.ml)
