I don’t care if someone leaks my fake DOB in a Dropbox hack and then tries to reset my Netflix password. Websites that use my real DOB are usually linked to my identity, so I’m much more concerned with protecting them from, eg social engine

Interesting, there’s absolutely no difference between justify and align left on iOS Safari. I wouldn’t have guessed that’s an unsupported feature. I guess it’s not common enough for me to notice throughout the web.

For me, that moment was uninstalling an app. I had to Google it. “Drag the app to the trash bin.” Remember how hard it is to uninstall stuff on Windows? Especially if you’re doing more than one?

My house similarly has two post codes. Only one is official, though. Google Maps lists the incorrect value, so it’s easy to see who simply googled the street address, eg the real estate agent who listed it. Both post codes are fine for deli

I think seeing all the random items is collateral damage. It can possibly be fixed (only show purchases in the category that you referred?). As the affiliate, the insights are invaluable. Imagine you hosted a sleep blog and directed people

What CO2 is a Game Boy producing? You could maybe argue that mining Bitcoin using power hungry hardware in a country with a poor track record of green energy (eg USA) isn’t great for the planet. But a Game Boy? More energy is wasted doing j

One reason I’m opposed to adware on desktop is because it often leaks into the entire computer. If I install FileZilla and is has ads only in the application, I would probably consider that acceptable. But instead, ads show up in my web b

Mostly static a screen recordings are pretty much the ideal content to show off H.265. The screen would be broken down into blocks, and ones that don’t contain much motion or complexity would use nearly no bandwidth. This image should demon

I would do a hybrid approach. Buy tickets on your phone and they’re linked to both your photo ID AND that exact specific device you purchased them on and can’t be transferred. On the day of you can scan the unique code on your phone (genera

Any sources on that? I’m guessing the 90% is hyperbole, but I still wonder how much spam the average user actually gets. (For me, close to absolute zero)

There’s a whole economy around buying and selling carbon footprints. If you run a factory that does nothing but release CO2 into the atmosphere, you can legally be “carbon neutral” as long as you give enough money to green companies who do

What does the Internet Archive back up that isn’t represented by 1s and 0s?

Not really, but perhaps someone could make one based on a cheap Nordic NRF51823 or NRF5832. Actually, a quick search shows that you can already buy exactly that (even with Apple compatibility built in).

The AI tool told me I could get a 5.2ghz overclock on my 10700k. It recommended 1.6V — which is WAY too high. I suspect many inexperienced users will trust the AI tool and unknowingly shorten their computer’s lifespan.

Off the top of my head, I think you could do ‘-f bestaudio’ with ‘—output-format m4a’ to automatically get the best audio and convert to m4a format.

I train ML models on my Macbook (Intel GPU) by SSHing into a machine with a Tesla A100. In this case it really is more than thousands of times more powerful.

I’m not surprised a company that consistently sells out within seconds is making money. What is surprising is their claim that mining only accounts for 6% of sales — though that seems difficult to verify (the cards used for mining and gamin

Raspberry Pi can be frustrating that way. Their product lines vary so wildly in performance that it can be confusing and misleading for new or inexperienced users. Often I’ll see people praise the Pi for being “a $5 computer”, then go on to

My understanding is that it’s heavily controlled by E-Ink (the company). When only 1 company can make the displays and they charge quite a bit of money for them, adoption will always be difficult. Once the patent expires I expect these to b

The repository[0] for J is just as unreadable (albeit with slightly more white space). I don’t know how a project is managed like this. Even the file names look obfuscated. [0]: https://github.com/tavmem/j
