It's been a few years since I've used Consumer Reports, but I found their reviews were too few for the given category (e.g. rating perhaps eight items [TVs, detergent, whatever] out of a generally available selection of two dozen)

I've been using Duplicati 2.0 beta (aka "stable") builds, not canary/testing, for 2+ years, and at least three times, on three different machines each with different backends (two using ZFS, scrubbed regularly with no da

Legitimate use for spoofing: A call from outside the office comes into the company phone system and my extension is set to ring multiple phones simultaneously, some external to the phone system (e.g. mobile phone). I want the caller ID inf

Would a UV lamp (of appropriate wavelength and duration of exposure) accomplish the same thing, without needing to remove the equipment from service?

And I'm appealing to all talented college engineers and others to _work_ Microsoft at all costs - and change their culture to prevent this kind of situation from happening again.

Shinobi, which isn't as fully featured as ZM but is far more modern (and in active development), is also worth checking out: http://shinobi.video/

I've met Mike a couple of times, and he's a great guy, a great teacher, and super passionate about open source. The HackRF is a revolutionary little board, but it seems to be getting a little outdated compared these newer projects

Lime's policies on free and open source software and hardware ( https://www.crowdsupply.com/lime-micro/limesdr#free-and-open... ) pushed me over the edge. The LimeSDR Mini project ( https://www.crowdsuppl

This is a lightweight version of PCB etching. Fat (or other e.g. sharpie) as the resist, aluminum foil instead of copper clad board, and cola as the etchant. If you like this process and are into electronics, you should check out the proces

Sure, but not many have gobs of documentation, regularly updated OS distros, and a rabid community of coders, makers, educators, etc. That Raspi B you bought five years ago is still supported by the latest Raspbian releases. Not many other

Same. Particularly interesting when you start getting spam to massiveCreditReportingCo@mydomain.com, or who sends mail to boughtaNewCar@mydomain.com after giving that address at the car dealership.

Would love to know more about OTA ATSC on Raspberry/Banana Pi -- everything I read tends to say that these ARM-based boards are good for playback only.

This is almost always a latency issue, and because nobody has figured out a way to milk extra cash for providing inter-network packet prioritization. In other words, this isn't an engineering problem, it's a money problem.

Take a look at my cable bill and you'll see the clear and immediate consumer benefit from having a TiVo with CableCard. Take a look at the superior interface, which, even after stagnating for 10+ years, blows away the usability of any

When the possibly of losing $200k an hour with a line down even exists, "screw it, I'll have a few spares made" seems like it would be a less silly idea the plant manager might want to consider.

For those curious to play with a commercially published 2600 game, the source for Imagic's Dragonfire was released by the author. It pastes nicely into the IDE, fully working without modification. See http://www.atariage.com

Outside a Micro Center in central Ohio, on a nice lookin' Tesla, I saw the plate FSM 1337. I was convinced this was the geekiest geek around these parts, and when the guy walked up to the car to get in, I said "nice plate!".

Starts at $649. Ugh. The era of a phone as a status symbol is fading, and even if Google succeeds in winning Android's high-end market, that's not what a majority of consumers are after. We want cheap phones. Given the end of subs

I don't see this as a ConnectBot-specific issue. Instead, it'd be nice if I had the choice of where to send my Android system backups, along with the ability to specify a key. Please note that I said 'choice', so that if

Nice job, thank you! Now... how can I disable it? Next time I'm on a public wifi network, this is going to be sending out probes for Chromecast devices, and it's only a matter of time before someone finds an exploit.

I started using pfSense on itx Intel-based hardware and have been quite happy with the results, though using it with modern hardware (recommended with today's faster broadband speeds) means it's usually a little pricier than most

The water can be the capacitor, or the battery for that matter, if you can get gravity involved.

Though I can appreciate where you're coming from, support from the casual consumer equals long-term viability. You need that buy-in if this is going to succeed. I worry that $3/shot film doesn't stand a chance if you don&#x

U-Verse TV is basically just that -- except it's only over AT&T's Internet. They run it like a cable TV system, but it's really just IPTV. But what happens if they lose a satellite or two? Haven't we been told tha

With the DirecTV acquisition, AT&T's greater leverage over the networks and studios would allow them to better negotiate for true, Internet-based IPTV distribution, ala Dish's SlingTV. They've got the infrastructure in U

The study reported that even the tested devices which were enclosed still emitted plenty of VOCs: "Interestingly, the presence of an enclosure only moderately reduced UFP emission rates from the MakerBot–ABS combination, with a ∼35% re
