(self-promotion ahead) Since the Microsoft Teams client is well known for being quite frankly, terrible, as many have pointed out in this thread, I am working on my own, alternative Teams client: OperCom. I'm building it as a simple, v

I agree that the client's performance is important. I'm hoping to avoid frameworks so that any issues will be as clear as possible, but maintenance will tell if that's a good decision.

(bit of self-promotion) They do have a React version on WebView2 that is (supposedly) much better, but it's only for personal accounts right now, though that could change [1]. Thankfully their internal API is fairly self-documenting, s

I haven't had issues with let's encrypt with them in the last 2 years, though I do recall seeing free SSL promotions and never a certificate.

An alternative Microsoft Teams client. It's cool because it doesn't warm your computer as the official client does. ( https://www.opercom.co.uk/ ) the website needs a complete revamping and the UI is being changed t

I second this, primarily because I was chuckling the entire time there. Czech is quite funny to Polish speakers [1]. [1] http://wiedza-jest-super.blogspot.com/2018/10/smieszne-czesk...

This certainly looks scary, but it's a bit difficult to understand right now even with their explanations, hopefully this bill will have more attention.

Avoid buying a GrapheneOS phone being advertised specifically for privacy with encrypted chat. They are specifically for selling to criminals, be it from a government or an enterprising young adult. Many people have tried to pay me to make

I'm surprised at how many browsers there once was. Were they all custom or did many share the same base, like the current situation with Chromium and Firefox?

My downloads folder is /tmp. If it's needed, I'll move the file to an appropriate location in Documents.

Demo-first looks good, it certainly tracks with my experience that building something needs to be shown off at every step to catch issues and get people excited. I'm not sure how this includes fixing bugs and general maintenance though

Many hobbyist drones are flying Linux computers [1], so it's not a stretch that an autonomous drone could be constructed. [1] https://youtu.be/5CzURm7OpAA

Old people need a pension, which is paid by the workers through taxes.

The process of shrinking to fewer humans is painful however: less people working, more people old and unable to work.

Brilliant, much better than having to use heavy and clunky tools like recaf or jbytemod, or one-off java projects with ow2 ASM to create custom classes.

If a design includes many analog components then it is effectively required to fab a prototype. Analog simulation is very imperfect, and the analog equivalent of an FPGA, Field-Programmable Analog Array (FPAA), are very limited in resources

The courses look brilliant, definitely a strong advantage to gain a reference from a Cambridge postdoc. I'd take part if the £2.5k for online or £5k for residential was much lower, but it's understandable why the fees are so high.

An interesting point from the LockPickingLawyer that I'd like to point out is that while many, many locks are easy to break if you're interested, it's still effort. Your average locker or bike thief isn't picking locks,

My engineering teacher showed us last year how to use dowsing rods, it was very odd watching the rods cross over a puddle. The article focuses heavily on the historical "witching" use case for these, which is of course nonsense, b

The surgery was done by an ENT (ear, nose, throat) surgeon. I'm not sure if it was within the ear or not, as the device was "skin coloured", though that may be because of how thin the ear's skin is.

Based on the certificate authorities linked to by Microsoft [1], around $400 to $700 a year, depending on the type of certificate. Extended validation certificates grant the software a better reputation with antivirus products, but I don&#x

On the off chance that's not sarcastic, I doubt we have.
