Author here. My problem is related. However, I have a IMAP/CardDAV open-standards setup instead of ActiveSync/Exchange.

Person/author here. Yes, I have considered other email clients. Evolution is the least bad of the available options and still sees active development. Most other clients don’t support CardDAV or LDAP so I can’t sync my address book. A

I’m mad about the pasta too. Price gouging is usually regulated internationally, though. E.g. groceries in India are labeled with a maximum retail price set by the manufacturer to avoid problems like this.

The Apple Maps service doesn’t have a web presence, so they’re not even trying to compete with Google Maps on the web. A map service is objectively more useful than a promotional page trying to sell iOS devices with a built-in Maps app.

They’re often cheaper because the store increases the price of the competitors’ wares to make their own store-product more appealing. It increases the price to consumers. Can’t both practices be wrong? Grocery stores shouldn’t be allowed to

Some of their success can be explained by the tyranny of the default. Some browsers use these search engine by default in some regions, and people don’t tend to change the defaults. I don’t know for sure, but I’d be surprised if Verizon don

A simple light sensor would also get the job done. However, this would increase the price and complexity of the project. There’s a risk the electronics might be damaged by the cool moist environment, so starting out with as little stuff as

Maybe? Most foods are labeled that they should be stored somewhere between 4-8C. I store insulin in the fridge so that would be too cold.

The article discusses an internal fan in the cooling box to circulate the air inside the fridge.

The fan does generate some heat, yes. It should be no more than 15 kW/year (it uses well under 2W but the converter is a bit inefficient). The savings are expected to be around 226 kW/year (including the added heat from the fan.)

I'm the author. I've updated the article to clarify. It's powered by a 220/110V USB power supply outside the fridge, USB micro cable in through the door seal, and then the 5V/12V-converter lives inside the fridge. T

If you’re interested in this, make sure to check out Flattr and install their extension. It tracks your browsing over the course of a month, splits your monthly contribution among participating creators you’ve visited, and then deletes the

Yes, actually it does. So does AU, US, and CA laws. Or, not expressly, but it does say a caching service must respect recognized industry standards for updating, removing, and excluding content from being cached. That covers HTML meta eleme

This is where the caching exceptions in copyright laws comes into play. A service can automatically cache content passing through it and not be held liable. Caching is really broadly defined so just about anything can be considered caching.

The new EU copyright directive expressly excludes caching services from the new publishers' rights (the "link tax").

As discussed in the article, some content management systems (like hosted WordPress.com instances) produce AMP variants of each published page. The author/rightsholder may not be aware of this and thus has neither expressly or implicit
