there is no setup and the instructions for a manual install keep getting me weird complaints from systemd about dependancies. It occurs to me that tackling this is error doesn't make sense because it requires systemd to work and ultimately I want to run this on a diskless alpine linux install which doesnt use systemd.
It’s not that we can’t do this that has kept it from happening yet. It’s that it’s never been practical.
I wish Ginsburg were still around. She was old and weak but I don’t think she would turn down the opportunity to shank this fucker. And the mental image of it brings me perverse pleasure.
Hasn’t Kohl’s done this for years?
Honestly it’s just an idea to suck up time at this point. I do NOT have the skills for this shit, as we can see here. I can correct what ChatGPT gets wrong though and just run with that.
Once I crack this, I think it could be fun to create a script that could spoof devices plugged into it with the gadget framework. Could save me a lot of trouble creating known-working usb configs down the road. Instead of starting from scratch each time, I would just have to tweak an existing profile.
It will be interesting to see the long term of the asahi linux project. They are doing some absolutely incredible work without apple's help.
Oof, I forgot about the damn butterfly keyboards. Apple really shit the bed with those.
To be fair, a lot of those are counterfeit.
Looking at those units I noticed something... ExecStart=/usr/bin/ln -s ${GADGET}/functions/uvc.0 ${GADGET}/configs/a.1/
It's an a.1 instead of a c.1. Surely it couldn't be as simple as just using a different letter, could it?
A scam
