On macOS, you can actually raise just the window you want but its more key presses. Cmd+Tab until the application you want is highlighted, then keep holding Cmd and press 1, you'll then be shown all open windows for that application (y

The cynics among us in Victoria believe the bid was just a state election stunt to woo rural voters that the government never intended to follow through with.

This https://krisp.ai/ works well to overcome background noise and conversations during meetings. It cleans up the audio you send and also the audio you receive. Not affiliated with them at all, just a satisfied customer.

OK upon actually reading the article it looks like they didn't include a timestamp - ouch.

An expired certificate should not cause that. I'd be very surprised if they did not have a cryptographic timestamp [1] on the driver signature. The presence of the timestamp allows the signature to be verified after the signing certi

The Ethernet port on my Thinkpad workstation thunderbolt 3 dock simply stopped working after upgrading to Windows 11. From reading online its a known issue without any obvious fix. Killed the port so bad that it stopped working in Linux a

This is a good win for Microsoft. Think of all the extra Windows ARM QA telemetry they will get which will improve the platform in the long run.

To see if ECC is working try overclocking the RAM if possible and looking for EDAC errors (they'll show up in dmesg) or from running edac-util. Eventually you should see something reported.

I have no idea why the Linux Teams application is so limited. Instead on Linux to get the missing features you can run browser based teams in Chrome or Edge. It supports window specific sharing. Can also do blurred and virtual webcam bac

Sure is. On the top of the installation guide page you are directed to if you sign up for the beta: "Chrome OS Flex is currently released for early access testing and is not suitable for production use. CloudReady is available for imm

True. For a Hack as with Linux, using compatible hardware is the key. However once that configuration process is done (and done right) from then on its typically a rock solid experience until the next major Mac OS version upgrade. In some

Have also had a cooked laptop in the past (in my case it was a Mac). A few years later when using a Linux laptop I decided to disabled sleep entirely but left hibernation available instead [1]. This means that desktop environments will not

Weird, I've worked with a few of them and found Z440s to be pretty much silent. OP must have been unlucky.

Yes that is what saddens me. I haven't seen those pole vault videos and find it disappointing that people would go to the trouble of making them. Anyway, the fact these athletes have the choice to wear a competition uniform they find

If the team likes the new outfits (which look good) and are more comfortable in them, that's great. Likewise I see some other athletes have specified a preference for leotards which is also fine. All good as long as the athletes have

Not the OP but I've been using various Thinkpads running Ubuntu since 2010. Been using Linux for many years prior to that on desktops. Also have my family kitted out with them (again on Ubuntu). It is possible to use just fine from

MATE 1.16.1 on Mint 18.1 (and more than likely the many previous versions going back to the GNOME 2 days) remembers the resolution and positioning of any attached monitors. At home I use a Thinkpad and a 30" 2560x1600. At work the sa
