How handle two speakers in dwm?
Hello, firstly I would separate all these non wm related keybindings to a program like sxhkd (https://github.com/baskerville/sxhkd) it's config is easier to modify on the fly and less bloat/unrelated stuff in window managers codebase is always better.

whkd: A simple hotkey daemon for Windows
After getting frustrated trying to update the library generation code to conform to the AHK2 syntax changes, I decided to run with an idea that I've had for a while now: writing my own simple hotkey daemon for windows based on skhd and sxhkd.

What's the closest equivalent of AHK for LINUX?
For GUI automation and the like, I would recommend checking out xdotool and maybe sxhkd for keybinds -- though, each DE/WM tends to have some method of handling keybindings in its own way.

shod: an acme-like window manager that tile windows inside floating containers
You control shod via a remote controller, called shodc. You map shodc calls to keybindings using a third application (a keybinder like sxhkd).

Chromebook
That said, if you enable linux app support, you can use something like sxhkd for hotkey definitions in combination with bash scripting.

Volume Control Works on MATE but not BSPWM
Not that I know, at least the general syntax is said to work with KEYSYMs only. However! I've been reading some more about it and you can try this: if you're not using a US layout keyboard, start sxhkd -m 1 as described here https://github.com/baskerville/sxhkd/issues/249. And just out of curiosity, maybe you can check if you have the proper drivers installed (again, sorry I don't know the details) but at least I have xf86-input-libinput installed.

Getting keyboard to work....
Because we specify super/ctrl/alt as modifiers x11 doesn't distinguish between left and right. See https://github.com/baskerville/sxhkd/issues/89

Best way to insert the ñ character.
Now I have an script that copy the char to the clipboard when I press that shortcut. This is archived using [sxhkd](https://github.com/baskerville/sxhkd). Is there a better way?

Show HN: A tiling window manager like i3wm written in C#
komorebi dev here. I can't tell you the number of times I've wanted to just write my own take on sxhkd[1] for Windows and use that to manage my own keybindings for komorebi instead of ahk.
You can just as easily write your own/use another hotkey daemon or PowerShell scripts to handle komorebi's configuration and keybindings, in that sense there is no dependency on ahk at all. However, the inertia around ahk in the Windows ecosystem is undeniable and it's in the interests of making adoption and onboarding easier that the project provides example ahk files and has invested in an ahk code generation library.
My thoughts on the dominant hotkey daemon in the Windows ecosystem aside, I remain convinced that the famous bspwm socket communication architecture[2] is the best way to handle both configuration and keybindings for a tiling window manager that has been proposed to this today.
Unfortunately I have to concede that there is a certain configuration burden that comes with komorebi, which is amplified in some cases by having to write/maintain ahk. This configuration burden is largely due to the highly fragmented nature of Windows application development that is discussed often on HN and it is inescapable.
With this in mind, the next release of komorebi (currently available on master) will invest even more heavily in automatic configuration generation.
A separate repository of common application-specific configuration tweaks[3] (in YAML!) has been created which I and others from the komorebi Discord server are contributing to, with the goal of having the edge cases for as many applications as possible fully documented so that a comprehensive configuration file can be generated[4] for the user which ensures that every (major) Windows application behaves as expected under a tiling window manager.
I hope that other Windows tiling window manager developers can use these YAML definitions in the future to handle the same edge cases in their projects so that eventually there will be a tiling window manager of every flavour (bspwm, i3wm etc.) available for Windows users where having to manually accommodate and compensate for the non-standard behaviour of individual applications is a thing of the past.

Damn Small Linux 2024
I was looking for a lightweight OS to run on old Asus Eee PC 1005 HA, which uses a 32-bit Intel Atom N270 processor. I installed Void Linux (https://voidlinux.org/).
I may give DSL 2024 a try and see how it compares.

How do I update one of these premade ESP32 boards?
My computer is running Void Linux and it has only a wired network connection. I can hook up my phone for USB tethering if I need to connect to the WiFi of the ESP32. How do I update the software without downloading some shady programs from filesharing site links on my system? I have the Arduino IDE and the esptool.py script installed.

Hyphens, minus, and dashes in Debian man pages
Classic "everyone is using the software wrong, but it's the fault of everyone, and not the software".
Some distros like Void seem to patch this out.[1]
From mandoc/mdocml's mandoc_char(7) [2]
In roff(7) documents, the minus sign is normally written as ‘\-’. In manual pages, some style guides recommend to also use ‘\-’ if an ASCII 0x2d “hyphen-minus” output glyph that can be copied and pasted is desired in output modes supporting it, for example in -T utf8 and -T html. But currently, no practically relevant manual page formatter requires that subtlety, so in manual pages, it is sufficient to write plain ‘-’ to represent hyphen, minus, and hyphen-minus.
Which is the common-sense thing to do.
Meanwhile, GNU projects become increasingly less relevant due to obnoxiousness like this.
In general the amount of wankery of "the correct hyphen" is staggering.

Thoughts on Void Linux?
So I was about to configure a new Archlinux build on my PC and came across Void Linux. I had already read about it a year ago but never researched it in depth. I know that is a Linux distribution made from scratch, with a different package manager and so on. Void Linux users or people who have tried it, what are your thoughts on it? Do you think the PM is easy to use? what about updates and bugs? what desktop or Tilling Window Manager do you use? could you tell me about it?
