It's funny because I was reading about Cherenkov radiation just yesterday and the same statement was made (although with a proper clarification afterwards).

I'm glad I've already done that! I haven't seen any difference in performance like others mention though. Weird. The only override I've made is for a website which needs to run some client-side cryptography code and it w

The article doesn't give much more information than the title. Almost zero details.

> The requirement `1.0.107` is a caret range, and with only `1.0.106` and `1.0.107` ever published it resolves to the malicious `1.0.107`. Uhh no it isn't? This seems to be a pretty low quality article

I'd say Canon and Scratch are different tools with different purposes. Both are simple and interactive enough for children to love. The main difference I see is that Canon abstracts away a lot of the game state management logic and you

One man's trash is another man's treasure. The mistake is being absolute and ignoring this fact. This post reminded me of Engineering for Slow Internet ( https://brr.fyi/posts/engineering-for-slow-internet ), a

Not sure Jolla deserves to be trusted, you'd be much better off with GrapheneOS. In any case, try out SimpleX for a messenger. You can also take a look at https://xn--gckvb8fzb.com/an-overview-of-privacy-focused-dec...

I agree, it's by far the best mobile keyboard I've ever tried. I especially love the shortcuts for copy/paste/select all/cut which send the actual Ctrl-C. I can finally use terminals! :-P

I can't see what's wrong with that (you choose whether to accept suggestions or not), but you can always blacklist predictions by long-pressing on them.

FUTO keyboard actually has an option for this (enabled by default) called "Smart key-hit detection". It adjusts hitboxes based on dictionary predictions for what you just typed.

Back when I was using QWERTY with Microsoft SwiftKey, I used to swipe a bit, but it never really felt comfortable for me. I've tried swiping again after switching to Colemak on my phone and everything is so close together that the accu

I'm Greek too and I got 81 (well technically I misclicked one in a hurry, would've been 82). It did help a bit though. Surprisingly enough I've learnt many of the more advanced words from technical blogs!

Yep, I've used both. Desktop mode isn't exactly there yet, but hopefully with the general availability it will get with Android 17, it'll smoothen out. As for the Linux terminal I ended up sticking with a fork which provides

Depends. One of the reasons I stopped using Spotify was because its offline mode refused to work when my device had all radios off (who even thought of this?). Once I turned on Wi-Fi, even without connecting to a network, it would load imme

Yes IPC is definitely a security hole, but because the two apps communicating need to both explicitly support it (I really doubt there'd be an exploitable vulnerability here of all places), it's a much smaller concern. Here I'

Funnily enough, the Huawei P30 Pro I was using previously (back when these things could run Android with GMS) had network toggles for all apps. They weren't in the permissions menu, as they were meant for data saving purposes but you h

I guess that makes sense, since it's pretty new. OpenSnitch is great software in terms of functionality but I find the UI lacking. If LittleSnitch can keep the same functionality, while improving the UI, I'm switching. My other cu

This is excellent, both educationally and from a UX standpoint! I've tried multiple times to read explanations on how transistors work and bounced off, but this time I think I've finally understood how to use them, at least practi

The same argument could be said for other age verification methods. Nothing stops a kid from getting their older cousin to verify their identity for something and it will never be possible to prevent this.

Owned by Russia? How'd you reach that conclusion? Just take a look at the sanctions imposed on them and the US support for Ukraine in the war. Also: it seems you've fallen into the "Russia is our enemy" propaganda trap.

IMO ever since the EV3, LEGO's robotics hardware has been on a downfall, being much less open and more focused on "connect it to your tablet with Bluetooth to do some basic programming". They also offer less ports and sensors

As someone who has been learning robotics as a hobby for a decade, my advice is: forget all the buzzwords and what the industry is using and start small instead. I started robotics at a young age and began with small builds with LEGO motors

I agree. I've seen quite a few AUR packages built that way and I'm using a few myself too. The end user shouldn't be expected to do this though! :D

Guess what people usually use to cool water vapor... It does make sense that datacenters would be cooled just like your water-cooled PC but that's probably not very sustainable given the fact that they don't do so.
