But spam is mostly from GMail nowadays. In the last seven days, 8 out of 10 spam mails I received (that didn’t get rejected outright) came from GMail.

I like touchscreens. They’re great for some types of operation, like selecting a destination from the map (not by entering an address). Or for entering text using an on-screen keyboard (when a physical keyboard is not available). So yes, ca

I would certainly think so? The PWA currently does not contain anything about notifications. Even on your run-off-the-mill desktop web browser, push notifications do not come “for free”. You need a service worker. You need a specific server

Just some anecdata: I use the Outlook PWA (on an iPhone!) to access my work mail and calendar. It does not have notifications, which I really liked for calendar events (because I’m forgetful), so that’s a bit sad. However, there is a decisi

I mean, certainly. Well, maybe not the answer, but whatever. However, are we actually capable of building new reactors and managing their operation in the private sector? I’m not talking about possibly maybe here. Are we actually ready,

But then, why not just use an ESP32 which can replace the Pi entirely in the proposed setup. ;-) I would have an ESP32 impersonate the MAC address of the server passively (ie. only in the Wi-Fi association), then “push the wake button” if i

I think it’s not too bad. Of course, I knew most of the ingredients before reading this article. I think my Router OS router can also do the ARP thing.

It’s super convenient though! Snapshots, clones, compression, encryption, differential backups and whatnot. Though much of it can be had with btrfs, too, these days. Repairing many boot issues is highly trivial. Just chroot in, fix whatev

If you're running Linux with ZFS, make sure to have a ZFS-enabled live medium available. The Arch ISO is easy to modify. Various variants with ZFS exist around the net. I believe Ubuntu also ships with ZFS nowadays. I think NixOS too?

This can work with MAC address translation (NAT, but on a lower level) and connection tracking. Not exactly a great solution. Alternatively, you can have one association with the access point per device, which is what some off-the-shelf rep

Docker layers are content-addressable. So the hashes are not entirely opaque. They are a direct result of what’s inside. Two images (mostly) share the same layers? No disk space wasted whatsoever. Sure you could implement a finer-grained de

At tremendously steep premiums – RAID1 (or equivalent) is a must, after all. Some combinations are confusingly not possible (adding two NVMe SSDs – gotta select “Datacenter Edition” SSDs). Might as well get a bigger server for the higher pr

Too bad the entry-level offers still have such small SSDs. My EX41 from 2017(!) has SSDs that size. It’s high time to up the minimum size. I don’t need 64 GiB of RAM or a gazillion CPU cores or whatever, I just need reasonably-sized (1 TB+)

That’s something slightly different though. Microsoft had this crappy idea that drivers are no longer just drivers but instead you’ll also get all the usermode software you never wanted automatically. IIRC you cannot disable this behavior

Sure the OS handles drivers. However, nearly all USB peripherals we use every day are 100% standardized – or at least their core functions. USB HID Class, USB Audio Class, USB Video Class. Three things have special drivers (on Windows) in m

Yes and no. Yes that's possible but no, this is no longer (full) TypeScript. Check AssemblyScript on that topic, it's TS to WASM. Most of the dynamic code stuff isn’t allowed and, of course, there’s a different standard library un

Not really surprising. JavaScript-the-language is missing lots of features that could be useful, like operator overloading. Or any overloading, really. Nothing is stopping you from compiling JavaScript though, browsers do it. The lack of st

Most spam I receive (and that continues to somehow bypass my spam filters) originates from Gmail. So no, spam is not solved, not at all. Spam is only “solved” on big providers because they mostly accept mails only from other big providers.

by fuzzy2 4y ago
I think you misunderstand. You cannot have a mail service on shared webhosting. It’s like 1999: Upload PHP using FTP, the end. Instead, the hosting provider will operate a mail service for you, much like Microsoft 365, G Suite and the like.

Sorry, I cannot, due to a confidentiality clause. Most of my employer’s clients use Angular though, some exclusively. They’re mostly machine tool builders from Germany. Also, as someone else already guessed, they also all use .NET. This is

I believe this is best explained with the saying “if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail”. Say you came into tech after jQuery and the like. You know your SPA frameworks/libraries. Maybe you are somewhat lazy at snif

I don’t think so. GRUB still retains its boot loader capabilities for Linux and others. It can also be a pure boot manager, using chainloading. Simply put: It can boot Linux on EFI without EFISTUB.

by fuzzy2 4y ago
IIRC, systemd-boot relies on EFISTUB. It's just a boot manager, not a boot loader. One EFI application calling another. For trivial setups (one kernel that keeps getting updated in-place), a boot manager is not required. For more sophi

Not sure how this is about democracy or otherwise. Regulation exists in various countries, for example regarding internet plan speeds. In Germany, ISPs can’t just slap on “up to 300 Mbit/s” on the plan and then say “oh it’s only 50 Mbi

And now for the comparison on 96(-ish) PPI screens…! I find that many more recent fonts simply do not look good on those. Some are even outright terrible, glitching all over the place with subpixel rendering.
