Voter here. Although I'm not totally convinced of the absolute necessity of an e-ID, and that there are a few points that I find inherently bad (mainly the necessity of using a smartphone, and possibly excluding rooted ones or those wi

True. But it doesn't _need_ to be so, it's actually a problem.

Great to see that I'm not the only one thinking that the espionage story is totally bogus.

You'd probably need thousands of residential IP addresses to pass under the radar with so many SIM cards.

Nobody will notice, because that's how it should be... personally I often notice when it's bad: blurry plots, JPEG noise that should not be there, and so on, and think "oh no, another one who has no idea about how to do image

Those phones will be long dead at that point, as well as the cloud services they depend on.

A proper SOS should be transmitted without breaks (and is therefore sometimes displayed as "SOS" with a bar on the top). ___ SOS (emergency call) = ...---... SMS = ... -- ... SOS (three letters)

For such an operation like an ownership registration for a washing machine, this is totally true. But for some things (e.g., asking details about an invoice) I need to speak to someone, not to fill a form I receive an answer to in 3 days (a

The pinout of the CPU itself might be under NDA (just speculating). Or some interconnection details, or who know what other information you might get from the schematics.

You should actually harden your browser or PC... to block any unwanted requests. Apparently some browser extensions can do that.

As far as I understand it, it is supposed to be a scan done by the browser on the user's computer, not an external scan, which a browser extension wouldn't be able to detect.

Therefore you lose any hardware acceleration I guess? I'd prefer to run an actual native ffmpeg on my machine, but of course then there's the security issue of copy-pasting a command line of "unknown" origin...

But Brave is a Chromium browser, which is out of scope according to the comment.

I don't own a Mac, so I wont use it directly, but I use Macs from time to time, and it looks great! +1 (or +10) for being native code made with Swift and not the x-th HTML/JS-based program that eats your RAM :-)

At a first glance it looks great! However, it looks like "too much" for what we're looking for. It seems to depend on too many external services. Does anyone know such a form creation system that can be self-hosted, has minim

And some only save to the cloud, whence a cloud icon with an arrow. (Not that I like that, but... that's what we get)

Same principle in the combined oven/microwave from Siemens we have at home, except the microwaves come from the top. If you look well, you can even see the thing rotating.

we do we need a web site for an ASCII art display? I just want a command I can locally can in my terminal. And if I want it online, just a telnet server ;-)

I think that opening a window and rendering something inside it using the native Win32 API from assembly code on Windows would not be so terrifyingly complex. It's just more code as it needs to call the appropriate GUI APIs (not just s

The Molotov cocktail is an example, sure, but why blurring the instructions? It's not like it's something particularly difficult to figure out, nor it's offensive content people might be shocked to read.

Not in every application -- these are two hyphens, Windows didn't touch them.

You don't need to be an AI to use em-dashes. I actually use them quite a lot (even outside of Word) and AFAIK I am not an AI. I just care about text layout and proper use of characters. — is Alt-0151 on Windows (ok you need a keyboard
