I have 4 of the old ones in service and they're great. Whenever I need to remotely reboot a server those come in handy just great, no more fear of what I'm going to do if the server doesn't come back online. It also solved th

Oh man, I loved the 65t! I remember Jabra making great true wireless headphones. They were small, sounded ok, had actual buttons but operating them didn't push the earbud against the brain. Miss that a lot. Nowadays it's all touch

Good to know. I don't buy Samsung anymore anyway. I have two CRG9s and they're already showing same problems after a couple of years. Had a midrange phone from them some years ago - started dying 6mo in (battery, restarts, slownes

I mean, if you were to use that name for an IKEA product, you can do worse than wine glasses :P A bed would be a little too on the nose I think.

Couple of years ago I worked as a full stack web dev for a electronics distributor. At that time we had a couple of DB problems, it would get overwhelmed, shit itself and our page would show an error. I found some time and, instead of fixin

Isn’t it (ChatControl) also „marketed” as „safe and secure”? If they (politicians) don’t have their comms backdoored and still get their data stolen, then why would I trust them to secure (read „safely snoop on”) mine or even know what they

Same here. I recently started thinking about upgrading my Synology NAS to something newer they offered. When I read about the hard drive restrictions I thought no-one would be _that_ stupid. Imagine my surprise when it turned out to be 100%

When I read what you wrote I immediately thought of "(...) HAL was told to lie... by people who find it easy to lie. HAL doesn't know how, so he couldn't function. He became paranoid. (...)".

Great point. I think that Blindsight by Peter Watts explores the concept of alien intelligence without consciousness.

However true that might be, I’d rather try to avoid wrestling with software for my data. If that’s really the case then even if it’s free I’m pretty sure you’re not getting your money’s worth.

Yeah, I've never found XML to be easy to edit/bulk edit/edit by hand. I suppose there are tools that would allow me to do that but since I would use them sporadically, I'd need to re-learn them every use. At the same ^D&

Exactly. I can try out stupid stuff, but because it's all text files and no magic, reverting back is as easy as it gets.

I tried it years ago but finally settled on HLedger. Like GnuCash, I own and control my data, but with HLedger I have an ability to go in and correct or change something (and not in a "accounting-appropriate" way) in bulk just by

This looks awesome. I’ve been wondering if it would be practical/feasible to create something similar but portable, self-contained for quieter, „local” sounds, like for instance locating a termite-like bug(s?) that’s been terrorizing m

Had the same feeling. This had all the hallmarks of vaporware for me - something was introduced in a TED talk (that's a personal turn off). No clear definition or description. Then the fashion show, and for what? Building "buzz&

Same here. I'm really surprised that after Pebble's implosion nothing appeared to fill the void. I could've bet real money that within a couple of years we're going to see at least a couple of products at least close to

If you buy your phone from a carrier. If you buy directly from a vendor I don't see how they (carriers) would be able to inject it. Radio firmware however is, as I understand it, a completely different thing...

That always astounds me - someone expecting me to pay them for something right after I was lied to by them (the ad). Who do those ads target?

I've always thought of those compulsory military training schemes as a little silly. You have a bunch of unmotivated people that don't want to be there. You have to house them, feed them, train them for what, 3, 6, 12 months? Seem

Yeah, I hate that. It's usually easy to spot, so I click "allow" on the JS notification and then block the real one when it pops up.
