I guess you could use OCR and object detection to identify books from their spines and link to Google Books or Goodreads.

Or you could just ignore social norms? Nowadays, every pub/bar has alcohol-free beers or cocktails.

But it could be an opportunity to improve, as well. I would start by investigating how customer segments are converting. One hypothesis could be that you have more annual subscribers because more uncertain users are not signing up at all. M

As most things in life, the perception of someone's actions are dictated by the outcome. If you succeed, your decisions might be considered bold and daring, but if you fail, they make you look arrogant or pretentious.

You could use Whonix instead and run the Whonix-Gateway on a different machine (e.g., Rasperry Pi).

Would you mind sharing your reasons for getting a magnetic implant? According the the wiki article, it's mainly used for "feeling" magnetic fields?

I guess it's a "cool" gadget for a very niche group of people. Maybe it's just me, but getting a large RFID chip injected seems like a fairly invasive procedure.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get internet-only appliances soon, which charge customers on a pay-per-use basis. Considering the low margins on the average whitegoods, it could be an attractive business model to bundle the consumables w

My concern is more about being associated with a fetish site. If someone would republish pictures of my feet anonymously I could laugh about it, but I would be pretty upset if they post it with my name and birthday. I wouldn't want a W

This, plus using a higher quality microphone than the ones that are integrated in webcams and notebooks. Since last year, I'm using a Snowball iCE that is mounted fairly close to my mouth. This not only improved sound quality but also

But all those competitors are based on Chromium and therefore not really independent. Not sure if this matters in a potential antitrust suit?

I wonder if it would be worth for Google to finance Mozilla regardless of its user base. Just to keep it around as a competitor to Chrome to avoid monopoly issues with regulators.

My knowledge about networking is fairly limited, but from a consumer perspective it works really well with seamless roaming, especially compared to old wifi repeaters. The Orbi system uses a dedicated backhaul to connect the nodes. Since by

Last year, I installed an Orbi Wifi 6 system in my parent's three-storey house. And I'm using the older RBK50 version myself with an ethernet backhaul. For consumer products, both are pretty good and offer fast and stable wifi. I&

Sure it's not great and the incident needs to be investigated but mistakes happen. We shouldn't expect perfection as a baseline. If nobody is willing to take risks, we wouldn't have any vaccines right now.

How has the industry given up on encryption? In recent years, HTTPS became the new standard and most apps are forced to use encrypted connections as well. Just because VPN ads are calling local networks "unsecure" doesn't mea

Those companies only want to offer BTC as a payment option but don't want to hold crypto themselves. So they didn't really choose BTC to start with. Which makes sense since most companies need to pay their costs in fiat money.

Even if they only advertise their own products, they will probably become interested in conversion rates and customer segmentation at some point. Or they want to advertise on other sites as well. One way to do this, would be to include trac

You can only do this if you have the name recogition and compensation to attract enough candidates who are willing to take this risk. Plus, if you have long on-boarding processes this could become quite expensive.

I guess you cannot expect from such a niche phone to compete with mass market products on price. That said, it's obviously a very individual decision if there's even a practical need for it.

My broker asks for 4-5 random letters of my password each time, making password managers unusable as well. Thinking about it now, how would you encrypt a password using this method? Create hashes of every combination?
