Please stop wining and make progress :) Current situtation: The energy sector (in Germany) was never eager to use nuclear fission power, they were pushed into it by politics in last century. The environmentalist movement is weird - in Ger

LESSON: KISS Do never connect things to any network - and especially the internet - if it is not required for operation. What worries are people which blindly request "more digitalization". We need resilience, not digitalization!

This article seems to admire capitalism? And focus only on economics. Aside from that. It is impressive how it missed the MS-DOS deal with IBM, subsequent dropping OS/2 and finally WinNT. How Microsoft was never forced to compete with

iPhone SE 1st Gen here ^^ Handy in sense of being small enough for a pocket, I can keep it with me during sport and don't feel the need for a Smartwatch. WiFi, Bluetooth, Jack, Accelerometer and GPS. The new iPhones use the same case a

3.5 mm jack Nasty. Yes ;) I'm sorry but it solves these problems and I think most of us have more prominent issues. Bluetooth - and even overpriced Apple products - are usually working well with one connection only. And the headset pro

This solution to require the user to pick and allow screencastig is right and justified. Chromium is doing it already nicely. Bonus, you get the actual allowance and confirmation that it must work as developer. We see similar approaches on

As an aside, the Flathub package is another incredible example of how much volunteer labor Zoom benefits from, but neither takes advantage of internally or passes along back to their users. I guess they would rather continue having t

This is true. And this holds up until enemy forces have advanced electronic warfare capabilities. Radar and radio jammers are usual in modern warfare. And the worst case is an EMP. The Russians considered elctronic warfare already in the Ru

My experience with Flatpak is okay, the payload by runtimes is okay and it works. What worries me is the actual amount of files within /var/lib/flatpak, for 23 packages (apps and all depdencies) it is about a half million fil

Of course my friend :) The TouchPad is the area below the palm rest? It requires users to interrupt the workflow. Probably some sort of design element or fidget? Never used.

I also still use my ThinkPad X220 happily with Archlinux. Contrary to the author I've built in immediately an OEM IPS-Panel and a Bluetooth 4.0 chip from the next generation. I bought it very late in production cycle because I prefer

The question is appropriate. Does it use a proprietary closed-source protocol? Wouldn't be a bluetooth-Profile for Displays much better? How about a embedded-Display-Port? We've seen how well open protocals scale looking at true

If you need performance take a look at the ThinkPad X13 AMD/Intel with good 13" display and probably the best keyboard available. Linux is supported very well. Replacement parts widely available (five years). With a docking statio
