Finally watched it with sound. Oh well, it's kind of funny, and probably was really funny back then. But think of the time: This video predates Android 1.0 by over one year. Touchscreens were certainly not mainstream back then. Even

Nice work! There's no filter for hot-swap sockets and none for the various types of light, though. Maybe also add firmware options? Not that I need all that from your site, it's just an idea for improvement.

Don't have sound right now, sorry. But that thing cost about 10kUS$ (and even more early on), that's nearly 14kUS$ inflation corrected. Might be the reason people didn't buy them for home use ;)

I think that's a misconception. For context: I have a strong preference for keyboard use, mouse is only an optional accessory that's sometimes useful. I already use touch on my XPS 13 and it's just another nice accessory, whi

I never said I wanted to do that ;) I was just really into the NUI/TUI hype back in the early 2010s. (I still like proper buttons, especially in my car) I wouldn't hang a screen like that on a wall, but put it in/on a table

I'm still looking forward to the UI revolution due to touch screens on computers becoming mainstream. Too bad the big PixelSense screens never took off in the mass market. But bendable screens... meh. I wanted a flat screen, only got a

Or it's just a cheap ad or for the user to show off; after all they bought an expensive iDevice and not sime cheap Android. Or a little bit of everything's. Sent from my Oh-MeGaphone SE with the official Firefox app

As a contractor or manufacturing company that's not what you're investing into. You build the machines and process and design the house. So in one case you get 200k out of the invest, and in the other 1000k. At least that's h

My Unifi U6 APs draws 4.2W from the PoE switch as of writing this (light traffic, but 5-10 IoT devices connected). I'd guess add 10% PSU inefficiency and 10% margin for error, and you're looking at 5W. A full router obviously draw

I had good success with this flow for major changes (both in-house as well as contributing to FOSS). The target was clear & discussed upfront (sans details that pop up during the actual work), and achieved by a series of consecutive PRs

I think "Sneakers" from 1992 is also a popular hacker movie. However, the aesthetics are very much unlike Hackers; it's much more realistic, though (not 100%, but a lot). If you're interested in the "hacker genre&qu

(edited after 2m, added the first paragraph) You gave an example the OS theory would only be good when writing an OS. But the (valid) counter point was that it also becomes relevant when interfacing with an OS. JavaScript first and foremo

I wonder how well these work compared to the real thing? A 150W light bulb shining through holes in a rotating piece of wood produce beams flashing over the eyes. This exact method to produce the effect is difficult (impossible?) to replica

Is Spotify connect still working [will it keep on working]? I thought they'd have [were about to] drop the old API implemented by librespot (et al.) in favor of a pure web API?

I was in no position to make any decisions related to energy politics (except voting), and energy politics isn't my strong suit either, but I always thought that the "mutual dependency" sounded like a good argument against a

I tend to use something like this rule, too. Except that I don't like having an IP in the domain part (it's valid, but screams spam), and a FQDN instead of a (possibly local/internal) hostname. So /.+@.+\..+/ it is

Ah, that's a better choice then. If they have no idea about security, both opsec and product, they should get someone who can help them get better (or take the risk and take no systematic approach to security). You're right, full

Not GP, but I'd assume they talked about the root cert? You don't want to roll out a new one every other week ;-)

I think this is very important: The poll is intended to be able to claim that their users want as little cooperation as possible. And giving the "((1+2)/2). any serious crime but WITH a warrant" option would have undermined t

I couldn't find info on a ban. It was heavily/absurdly redacted due to the Nazi topics (1966 was two decades after the war), but some of those changes were promptly reverted. Can't say if that was due to the censor bureau, or

I know the LED matrix displays you linked mostly from Festivals and from a few (3-5 I'm aware of) largish (<= 4m wide, I suspect) outdoor signs in our city. (Edit) Surprised they're more common around your place. But might just

It's also important to consider the type of company and the type of work done: A single person or small team doing contracting work will have a different (likely smaller) overhead than larger companies. OTOH having more people allows f
