In theory, it works to bridge the gap between an in-person visit to a clothes store and an online shopping experience like Amazon. When you buy clothes online, you can only see images of the clothes and see them on other people. You can

I get the decision but I think it misses part of the problem: how do you convince people like your mum and dad to start paying for backups and how do you convince them to pay extra for privacy? I suspect the way it usually happens is that s

The monthly storage costs are too high. For the price of 1TB from you (15€), I can buy more than 2 TB just about anywhere else. Commercially, Apple and Google are both 2TB for 10 CHF and Amazon gives you unlimited as part of a Prime members

I believe section 317ZK, subsection (3) of the act [0] prohibits a provider from bearing the costs of compliance. If I read correctly, the cost is negotiated between the provider and the government and the government bears the cost. And sec

Binary options shouldn't be compared to Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency and largely looks like a currency. You can buy it, own it, sell it and exchange it freely for other things. The same is mostly true for proper regulated optio

I've just recently been combining Photolab with Darktable. DeepPRIME really is a killer feature. It produces images that are basically noise-free without turning the whole image into a smooth featureless blob. But I also really like Da

If you want the kernel implementation of WireGuard instead, or you can't use the official packages for some reason, there's an unofficial CLI on GitHub [0] that just spits out a standard wg-quick configuration file for you to use.

While I won't debate the facutal differences between the Model 3 and the Mirai, I don't think it's right to judge the potential of FCEV vs. BEV based on the cars on the market today. BEVs are a relatively mature technology at

The Mirai has an EPA range of 402mi [0] and the Model 3 long-range has 353mi [1], so it isn't a straight comparison. And FCEVs are still in their infancy. There are only 6 production FCEVs so far [2] with very few charging stations bui

There are criteria other than efficiency though. What's the environmenal impact of a hydrogen fuel cell versus a rechargeable battery with a comparable range? Doesn't making a battery require mining a ton of metals? How efficient

The very topic of this thread is about how Australia is quarantining a _city_ from the rest of the country. Australia quarantines internally, which is comparable, if not more difficult, than countries that close their international borders.
