If I'm not mistaken: The two projects were started by the people that founded Element. When they founded Element, they transferred the projects to the Foundation, to make them more independent. Now, they're taking them back and re

From how I understand this: Synapse and Dendrite were Foundation projects, but the contributions came almost exclusively from Element. Element is forking the two projects, and is redirecting their maintenance efforts towards their own forks

SQLite is great, but the article misses the greatest weakness: It is almost entirely untyped. Feel free to specify fancy types for your columns. But SQLite doesn't care in the least. You can create an INTEGER column and write text to i

How is the KiCAD format more open than LibrePCB? Both are custom formats using S-expressions. The thing is that while the files look similar superficially, LibrePCB has a lot of differing library concepts: https://librepcb.org&#x

I assume you're talking about https://librepcb.org/donate/ ? Probably GitHub Sponsors (no fees at all) or OpenCollective (fees depend on the payment method, a "platform tip" is optional).

LibrePCB is not developed by PCBWay. They started supporting the project last year: https://librepcb.org/blog/2022-09-08_partnership_with_pcbway... Other fabs support it too (namely Aisler) by donating a share of the i

That's not the case (anymore). I run a NixOS based router with nftables (no iptables installed at all), and podman works just fine. It simply adds its NAT rules to nftables (unless you tell it not to). As far as I know, this was introd

I think you're mixing up some things. If you run the image "docker.io/wordpress:6.3.1", then the container will be updated when the image with that tag (6.3.1) is being re-built (which is a best practice, because that&#x

If you get a Pixel phone and put GrapheneOS on it, you're actually ahead on OS updates compared to vanilla AOSP. For example, the webp vulnerability was backported 4 days ago, while regular Android users will have to wait until Octob

Informing people only helps if they have a choice whether or not to use the app/service. In many cases, people are tracked by services they cannot really avoid. One example is the German "Deutsche Bahn" app, which is full of

At least on 868 MHz, if you stick to the 1% duty cycle limitations that the ISM band allows, I doubt that you'll be happy with the web surfing performance. (For those that don't know duty cycle limitations: https://www.

Could the signal bounce off airplanes as well, or is that effect not relevant in practice? (I think I've heard such stories before from radio amateurs...)

Organic Maps is less powerful than OSMAnd (on Android), but it's much more straightforward and easy to use. It's the go-to app I recommend to all casual map users that want offline maps.
