If I see a job application with spelling or grammar mistakes in it, then it's a huge red flag; it tells me that this person does not care about accuracy or they don't check their work very well. These are very important attribute

"It’s also worth pointing out that Apple offers terrific trade-in values for its old products" Every time I look up what Apple's trade-in will be, I have to compare it to eBay to make sure I've not gone crazy.

Humans can generally tolerate skin contact up to 50C. Anything higher and you will pull your hand/finger away. Keeping with the "unconventional" theme, lips are more sensitive to temperature than fingers, but make sure you d

"Broadband" will now be 100Mbps for downloads and 20Mbps for uploads. I'm more impressed by the long-term goal of 500Mbps upload speeds.

As an alternative, I've been using an IODD 2541 for making virtual ISOs and USB sticks bootable. Put any SSD into the box, copy ISOs or other formats to the drive. Selection is from a small LCD panel on the front. I'd say it&#x2

I've used the desktop version a few times, but the GUI is now available online. It does not allow you to compile C code to assembly, but you can run example assembly code through the system and observer cache hits/misses, memory a

The article does mention the trick to right-click on the app and select "Open", but the text is greyed-out. You get a different dialog box with an option to open the file and this saves a lot of clicking.

I've not found anything better than StaxRip if you want access to the deep guts of encoder options. It can use nVidia's nvEnc API either directly, or through ffmpeg; same for Intel's QuickSync and AMD's VCEEnc. https:&

Damn, I was reading the words "Facebook Announces Meta Verified" and I took "verified" to mean you can see content that is "fact-checked" or at least filtered for some kind of accuracy. Yeah, I know. That was

Reminds me of the joke where an engineer is testing cockpit windshield resistance to bird-strike by firing dead chickens at it from a special cannon. The windshields keep shattering and they wonder why. One engineer suggests that they prob

It's also the portability with a colour-accurate HDR screen. That's a pretty huge step-up from what most laptops can do.

I had good results using Remmina ( https://remmina.org/ ) for RDP to a Windows host from a Raspberry Pi. The only thing that let it down at the time was a lack of "clean" multi-monitor support. I'm not sure i

XPRA is the GUI equivalent of the 'screen' command and it works pretty well for most tasks that I throw at it. I love that the Windows XPRA client gives you a task-bar icon for the applications menu of the Linux host that I'm

I have always found the XKCD color survey of 2010 to be a most excellent reference in color perception: https://blog.xkcd.com/2010/05/03/color-survey-results/ And still, nobody can spell fuchsia.

I start with a command-line parser which asks for a file and prints out information about the file (if it exists). Then I move on to more complex parsing of text in the file. I try to get this building cleanly and working on Windows, Mac an

This is a deep exploration of modern out-of-order computer architecture, based around the M1 chip. It's the result of a significant amount of experiments, research and knowledge from multiple people. If you want to get an idea of the
