Can't install any virtualization software besides docker - corporate policy ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

OK, I just realised you've already done something similar. Scratch what I wrote.

Have you tried putting the display to sleep from the CLI and see if there's any meaningful output?

I'm not at my desk but something like: https://askubuntu.com/questions/62858/turn-off-monitor-using-command-line

In the same vein, often times changing the port the mouse is connected to fixes it for me.

I literally live inside the combo of

  • #Firefox
  • #Evolution
  • #Emacs
  • #Alacritty
  • #GIMP

And very rarely leave the comfort of my cozy habitat ๐Ÿ˜

At work, I'm "forced" to use a Mac but thanks to #FOSS I've got the whole combo setup on my work laptop too except Evolution sadly.

Effective method...so long as your kid doesn't hate you ๐Ÿ˜‚ in which case, IMHO, it should be a favourite aunt/uncle/teacher/... who introduces them to the topic while the parents try to stay quite on the topic as much as possible.

Side note: do try out Firefox sync. It will only take a minute to setup, is pretty secure and most importantly saves your bookmarks, history, passwords, ... so you don't end up where you are today again. HTH

Ah...this explains why it works: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?712#comment16

It's a new feature \o/

Oh, it works ๐ŸŽ‰ Thank you!

For posterity here's a complete example:

foo\:bar :
	@echo $(@)

and then

$ make foo:bar
foo:bar

Though, TBH, I don't understand how this works ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ I need to look into Make docs.

Unfortunately didn't work. I got the same *** target pattern contains no โ€˜%โ€™ error.

I installed it. Definitely very different! I'll give it a fair shot though - looks like there's been plenty of thought behind its design.
