You can get a small Bluetooth keyboard. They make them really tiny, for this exact use case (smartphones and tablets).

Since this is a Surface you can probably find one that's been specifically designed to integrate with it (act as a cover).

glib2-devel is available in Manjaro.

glib2-devel is present on all Manjaro branches.

glib2-devel is a core package and pacman should be able to install it directly. Have you updated your package mirrors and upgraded the system since you installed the machine?

Alright, have fun with that. 🙂

It will go through Google servers if you want to talk to an Android user... If Apple implemented RCS only for its own users there wouldn't be much point to it. 🙂

You just need an app that does this transparently.

Oh wait, that's why Google isn't letting anybody else use RCS. 😄

I'd be more interested to know what they think iMessage is, if not a messaging app...

I'm fairly sure the only reason for which Apple is using RCS is to circumvent the EU DSA, which requires them to make iMessage interoperable with other chat systems. So instead of opening access to iMessage they're using a completely different system as a distraction.

I mean, they could've said that iMessage is already interoperable via SMS but the feature disparity is too large. RCS will serve nicely to confuse the issue.

There's otherwise nothing to gain for Apple by adopting RCS. iMessage already does everything RCS does and more.

They could also kill RCS tomorrow if they wanted to, by simply releasing iMessage for Android. But then they wouldn't have a red herring to show the EU — if anything they'd be in an even worse position as per DSA. It would also antagonize Google although I'm not sure how much they care about that.

He's not suggesting to replace timestamps (nor database sequences). They're unique identifiers, and they happen to include a timestamp.

I really don't see the issue. If the work account uses Google or Microsoft I use their respective web apps and export an ICS link to see the blocked slots in my own personal calendar.

For my own personal calendar I use CalDAV, which is widely supported, and an app that can import ICS links. (Self-hosted Radicale server and the Calengoo app for mobile and desktop, for the curious.)

I can't give specifics because it will depend on the version you play and also it's been a while and I don't remember all mods by heart. So it's just gonna be suggestions; in no particular order:

• First of all you'll need the fundamental bug fixes. There's (still) lots of bugs in vanilla Skyrim.
• You will need the new improved menus, most mods rely on them.
• Personally I can't play without improving the aspect of PC and NPCs, so improvements to bodies, faces and hair are a must for me. If you get down the rabbit hole there's things like mustaches, beards, tattoos, eyes etc.
• Armor and weapons is a close second for good looking stuff.
• You will want a mod that improves polygons as well as something that enhances vegetation, skyboxes, water and weather.
• There are mods that fill the cities and villages with a lot more... stuff. Things like decorative vegetation, benches etc. You will not be able to play without it once you've tried it.
• The skill trees and the professions all need specific mods that apply balances and fixes. You can also go one step further and apply mods that actually make them interesting.
• If you can find one for your version of Skyrim, I strongly recommend a mod that improves dragon AI and makes the fights actually challenging. It always seemed ridiculous to me how easy they are by default.
• Better horses is a good idea, lots of convenience there.
• Smithing improvements. Nuff said.
• Personally I can't stand the default fighting in all aspects of it. I must have didn't roll and some extra brains for the enemies. Some mods the spruce up the dungeons aren't bad either.
• You can get lots of extra quests and NPCs with Interesting NPCs.
• I typically avoid shaders and ENBs in favor of simpler mods that let you adjust the game colors (contrast, saturation etc.) They have very low impact on performance and give you that color jolt that's 90% of why people use ENBs anyway.

On an even more personal note, I like to play like a classic RPG. I get mods that allow multiple companions and interesting NPCs and when I met somebody interesting I take them into my party. There are also mods that let you order them better, you can adjust their flags to set what armor and weapons they prefer, how they level up, and whether they have "plot armor" so they can die for reals. I usually end the game with a party of 4-6 people and it's a blast. But you may want to adjust the difficulty accordingly as you go out you will start rolling everything.

Another very interesting approach I've tried a couple of times is mods that remove all identification clues (no town names, no directions, maximum map fog of war) and start you in some random point of the map. Add some difficulty mods so you have to be really careful who you meet, perhaps some survival mods, and it's a real blast. You can also use rogue rules and restart when you die (and not save scum).
