Not a specialist, but it doesn't look like a traditional fire battery to me. Also, was that fireworks after the explosion?

And to those who ignore any warnings. After all, there's a middle ground between ignoring it completely and complete panic.

The problem is that Ukraine has been trying to join NATO since the early 2000s. The answer was always the same: "we'll consider it". This wasn't going to change in 2014, when Ukraine had no working government and Russia

Telegram doesn't use end-to-end encryption by default, so it would be a bad alternative to WhatsApp even if it was owned by Mother Teresa. At least if you care about privacy.

Neither you nor me speak for "the whole Eastern Europe" or the "slavic people". I'll ask again: why did the countries in the east tried to join NATO? Why join if there's no threat? It's not Estonia or Lith

Care to explain why countries are willing to give up some of the control over their own military and risk being dragged to other wars just to join NATO? And what caused Finland and Sweden join after 2022 even though historically they were f

Apple specifically mentioned CSAM when announcing the system. I don't understand why you find it weird that people refer to it as the system that detected CSAM when that's essentially what Apple was calling it. The scanning Apple

The feature wasn't introduced because of public backlash. It had problems and could be tricked, which at the very least should make you stop accepting everything Apple says about security and privacy at face value. On top of this, whil

Russia broke their own agreements (eg: 1994 Budapest Memorandum), invaded and is waging war on Ukraine, and you are here blaming the US for the loss of Ukrainian lives. You say that you hate Russian imperialism, but then start making excuse

You keep moving the goal posts with these replies. Hetzner isn't the best provider in the world, but it's also not as bad as you say they are. They're not just renting old servers.

On softer plastic bags, stretching the plastic near the opening usually allows you to open it. Does a little bit of damage though.

The Pixel 7 series has an optical sensor under the display. I wonder how some oil/cream/etc helps? The newer ones have ultrasonic sensors, so that should be better.

Apple Weather isn't as accurate as DarkSky used to be for me here in Europe, especially rain prediction.

Why would you stop reading there? Because the content in question is an image with text instead of a video or a short article?

The part of the comment I meant to reply to was this: "[...] and stolen what they had previously provided". You're right about the reviews, users, url, etc, but what was "previously provided" was code with a GPL lic

I don't disagree with that, but the comment I've replied to said they were stealing "what they had previously provided". The stuff "provided" was code shared under a GPL license. Maybe it's a technicality,

The code was shared under a GPL license. If the license allows you to reuse, fork, etc, then it makes no sense to accuse you of "stealing". Obviously there's more to it here as they've also taken over the plugin's r

Aren't these v2 extensions being removed from Chrome's store? If so, are the alternatives based on Chromium running their own store?

You ask why do this when data is cheap. The problem is that data isn't cheap for everyone. You have access to a nice plan - and that's good - but not all EU countries have nice plans and cheap prices. Someone in, say, Portugal doe

You'll need a travelling eSIM for that as plans from regular providers usually have restrictions on how long you can use them in roaming. The downside to this is that travelling eSIMs usually don't give you as much data as some lo

One of my VPS was lost in that fire, but since my backups where somewhere else, I didn't lose much. The trick is not to put all eggs in the same basket and it's easier to do that when you're paying much less than you'd p

Your comments here seem to be based on the assumption every country in Europe has plans like the one you have (€20/100GB). Those plans don't exist everywhere.
