My example: I installed Debian 13 recently. I installed on the second SSD of my laptop, so I can dual boot and keep working with Debian 11 on the first SSD. I encrypt my disks. Debian 13 can use the hardware encryption of my Samsung SSD, 11

Yes, if they do it for fun. If they do it for money they will install something else and run it in parallel with the blog of the owner of the server. If they are good they'll be lean with resources and not get noticed for months or yea

Maybe you can automatically forward mails from that domain to Gmail and find a way to label them. At worst you can write a mail client to do that by logging in, listing mails, mailing them to you and keeping track of what it already sent (s

I've got a laptop of the times when you switched to a Mac. It's warm in winter, which is nice, but not so warm to be a problem in summer. My workloads are mild, Django and Rails. Even the test suites are not CPU bound. Linux, not

Most laptops sit on a desk and never see a lap, even Macs. Benchmarking how long people could sit with a laptop on their lap while running Geekbench could be an interesting metric though.

IANAL but that could mean that if I take the code of EUPL project Work and I fork it as Libre Work and add a very minor and useless feature that uses another work licensed with some GPL license (not difficult because I can pick the dependen

In my case yes, because back in the 90s I had to write Word files at work, when I had to write something. More recently because I write inside any tool my customers are using and in md files for myself. Obviously none of my customers nor my

Samsung and Chinese phone makers will happily sell their phones to former Apple customers. Are Macs next in the line?

Italy has got an ID card since forever. Of course it was a piece of paper, it's a piece of plastic with a chip now. There is some experimentation to move that into the state app. Everything accelerates when it becomes digital, for the

The caption of the last diagram is "Legal but non-reachable position with 271 moves for White. Corner queens can be replaced with bishops." There are 24 white queens.

How can a position with more than 9 white queens be legal? The limit seems to be one queen plus 8 promoted pawns.

I guess that one needs some help to transfer "swiftly" 8000 Terabytes of data. At 1 Terabit per second it would take about 18 hours. 8000*8 Tb / 60s / 60 / 24 = .740740... 24 h *.740 = 17.76 h But is 1 Tb&#

Yes, we know. Internet does not work in Spain when there are football matches. It would be more interesting to know if something is getting done about this. Other businesses must work, people must communicate, the very same Spanish state mu

You probably launch and land on a floating platform nearby. Nobody on Earth launches from a city. They launch and land in remote areas. Safety and noise. Lot of noise. Then you fly to the colony balloon.

Those humans saw the debris. What happens next when a human is actively at the wheel is that the driver should look at all mirrors, decide whether to change lane or brake, execute. Or anything else that could lead to a movie like multiple c

My complaint is also, why do they weight so much? Even phones with the same dimensions of an older one keep increasing their weight. This phone is 201 g, which has become the new normal so I can't complain really much but it's sti

Well, I never wanted something standard so I always configured my desktop. My current GNOME desktop looks more like KDE than GNOME. I gave a try to KDE in 2014. It seems that it has been the wrong time to be there. I switched to GNOME Flash

If anybody implements that to antiscrenshot some sensitive data, somebody else will use another phone, a tablet or a camera to record a video of it. Nice idea though.
