Dark mode allows you to use a high brightness and contrast setup in more lighting scenarios, you can't use high brightness in the darkness if 99% of the screen is white. Something could be said for appropriate lighting, but in the real

Android has a feature that lets you limit time in specific apps to X minutes, you can set these and the app will go black and white when you approach the limit and just close when the time is up. I found that's a good compromise to ou

Typically a vulnerability is found on an older version of the software that can be used to attain kernel level access, and a very simple hack is needed in later versions to force an upgrade to an older version of the software. To prevent th

Correct, but if the lock is trivial to defeat, you can assume people will be carrying screwdrivers / shims and whatever else is necessary to break locks. If you need to spend 5 minutes carefully setting pins then yeah it's probabl

Hey I'm really happy that you've provided an option for people to upgrade their OG arduboys with the new FX chip, but it seems I'm being charged $15 USD (same as the cost of the chip) to have it shipped to me, is there any ch

I miss how it was prior to the pandemic, and would happily office 5 days a week if I could get that back. However knowing that it's never likely to be the same, as people get used to WFH and companies realise they can save a load of mo

If I'm trying to find a subreddit for my niche, I will instantly find it by searching for [niche topic] + "subreddit" on a search engine. This on the other hand is useful for finding a subreddit for literally anything else, t

My favourite aspect of sublime is that the "sessions" are so reliable. I often just open it to jot something down, and before I know it I have 15-20 notes on separate pages, I'll consolidate and save them to a file somewhere

I have a feeling this kind of legal attack is usually the result of someone misusing a company trademark. If he called it anything else they would never have noticed or cared. They risk drawing attention to their non-existent competition by

Discord took the concept of "voice-only" communication software and extended it to a full integrated solution. This is just, yet another "voice-only" communication app, except it's iOS exclusive, invite only and see

This is awesome, but I can't imagine how much trouble you'd run into with emoji's being different on different devices, plenty of input methods / printers without support let alone writing your email down on a printed fo

The primary purpose of a Yubikey is the physical possession of said device is a mandatory factor of authentication, I don't think adding biometric auth is a good excuse for reducing that factor considerably.

I would guess that having a "baseline" pair of headphones would make this "as easy as possible". I wouldn't be surprised if there were headphones that didn't meet that requirement.

You could use a trusted / centralised source to produce a TOTP or some equivalent code, and generate some code alongside a timestamp, which would be verifiable. (You can't get the code ahead of time from the service, but can later

I assume that's why they restrict its use now, because the overhead of repair/stress isn't worth the 2% thrust. During WW2 there's a good chance they had no idea what they'd be up against whilst they were developing
