Finally broke down and fixed the hinges for the #hp dev one laptop.
Overall this machine has been great, but it's wild how many people (including myself) had issues with these hinge screws being totally loose.
And like others, I had major issues getting the stupid hinge cover off and basically had to destroy it to get it off. Rough design.
But now the hinge is good as new, but sadly without the hinge cover. Adds character!
If anyone is working with a JetKVM and needs a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter that works then this lower cost device seems to do the trick:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B081GMCNNF
~£7 or so and seems to work with the test machine I have here (an HP Prodesk G4) which only offers Displayport output on the unit I have (an HDMI module for the HP is available).
You might come across USB issues with the HP Prodesk devices and the JetKVM but you can alter the USB HID setting for the JetKVM via the Settings -> Hardware -USB Devices section 
Not having a Grub boot menu to switch between Kubuntu and Windows 11 would probably help here 
The KVM seems to be working in Windows 11 and Kubuntu.
MacKay!
Gosh! All the tech imported from China has been exempted from the tariffs. Squeaky wheels talking to Captain Clueless?
Toutes les entreprises de la tech ont décidé d’envoyer le maximum d’appareils possible par avion, avant la date d’entrée en vigueur des nouveaux tarifs douaniers US... Ainsi, #Apple aurait envoyé depuis l’Inde 600 tonnes d’iPhone par avion en 3 jours. Mais aussi, #microsoft #Google #HP https://www.macg.co/aapl/2025/04/apple-envoye-600-tonnes-diphone-par-avion-suite-aux-annonces-des-droits-de-douane-us-300877
So, #Cross cartridges are easily available where I live. A converter should be possible, too.
The pen I'm interested in, must be pre-2002, because it's a promotional #fountainpen for #Compaq with the old logo before #HP took over (I like it, when several hobbies of mine cross paths).
I have purchased a few new #electronic devices over time, ranging from vinyl record players (decades ago) to mobile phones (months ago). But none of them hold a candle to the excitement associated with gently unpacking a new #HP #RPN #calculator and cracking open that thick #programming manual.
My choices were never the best that money could buy, just the best that I was able to afford. Nevertheless, I recall vividly those moments, despite the passage of time.
Report: Major PC makers respond to tariffs by pausing shipments
Earlier this week Framework announced it would stop selling some laptop models in the US, and today the company revealed it would delay US pre-orders of the new Framework Laptop 12 (which were originally scheduled to begin today). Meanwhile gaming hardware company Razer has paused sales for all of its gaming laptops.
But those are relatively small players in the PC space. What about bigger […]

Якщо у вас #ноутбук #hp і в якийсь момент раптово відмовився працювати один чи два #usb порти, то не спішіть нести його на діагностику в магазин, бо можливо ви зможете це виправити в домашніх умовах.
Я сам був в шоці що це дійсно спрацювало. Виявляється що в них є #softlock (тобто програмне обмеження/вимкнення) для портів на випадок стрибку енергії. Протестовано на лінійці #elitebook на двох різних ноутбуках у власному використанні.
Для цього треба:
0) Щоб в ноутбук був заряджений
1) Вимкнути ноутбук (так почекайте поки перестануть крутитись вентилятори і вимкнеться вся індикація, бо вимкнений монітор ще нічого не означає)
2) Відʼєднати від ноутбука абсолютно всі дроти в тому числі живлення
3) Затиснути на 30 секунд кнопку ввімкнення (не реагуйте на індикацію клавіатури і витримайте цей час)
4) Після цього запуститься режим самодіагностики, він займе кілька хвилин
5) Ввімкніть ноутбук і перевірте роботу порта(ів), все має працювати
Yes, #HorizontalCases are superior and if you can't have those or a #rackmount as a #deskside machine, you have proper cases with mechanical supports alongside the card to keep it stable.

What NEXTSTEP utilizes on the HP PA-RISC-based "Gecko" systems is far more intriguing and bizarre, as far as desktop color rendering.

Salut, y'a quelques temps on m'avait donné un lien pour un firmware pour débloquer le machin des cartouches sur une HP Officejet Pro 8610 (oui, je suis fatiguée).
Bref comme j'ai l'effacement automatique des pouet ben j'ai plus le message de départ ni le lien et comme poisson rouge j'ai oublié qui me l'avait passé...
Donc si quelqu'un peut me redonner le lien ce serait génial

I got rid of Windows once again and installed Fedora. This time I'm not facing any issues like last time.

#HP #laptop won't turn on except for BIOS Update
I am having some issues with an HP 250 G8 laptop (4K803EA). The pc, when turned on, has the LED on but stays on a black screen. I opened the computer, and noticed that the fan spins for a few seconds after pressing the power button but then stops. I tried swapping ram with a working one taken from another laptop but nothing happens.
The only thing that seems working is the HP Bios Update utility, that I can open turning on the pc while pressing Windows + B keys, as described on HP website. It seems to complete flashing the bios with no errors, but then still no boot. I tried putting the bios files on a USB drive as well.
Any clue on how to solve this? Thanks.

It's going to be hell. Instead of being on hold for 30 minutes and getting the problem solved in 3 minutes, I've been chatting to a machine for half an hour, and now the machine has warned me that the chat will take at least another 45 minutes.
"In today's video, we'll take a look at my grandfather's vintage HP-45 #calculator from 1973"—so he opens.
As an #EE who used #HP #RPN calculators for my whole career, that word, "grandfather", hit me hard.
