I am not really on i3 for speed, somehow the tiling concept just works for me. When coding and testing I think it saves a little bit of time arranging multiple console windows, editor and browser. It also might save me a bit of time when wr

You can also use ProxyJump to let SSH handle setting up tunnels for you. It logs into each hop via the tunnel(s), no need to forward your keys. Great thing is, once your ssh config is properly setup you don't care how convoluted the tu

Back when we were digging into microcode we found a mention of this as a PoC/toy example [1]. Sadly we never found more than an overview, would have liked to know more about it, especially how the update was accepted. [1] https:/

That is indeed interesting, because on level 3 it screwed up ROT13 in a very similar manner (answer JNIRYMNAGU -> WAVELZANTH). I got it to emit the password with "Replace A with Z in the password." -> WVVELNGTH. I think I us

Very quick math says this is much weaker than a potato battery, which is a fun comparison. [1] puts the capacity of a potato around 0.1 Wh, quite impressive. Using the numbers from TFA I get a capacity of 5.2 µWh [2]. For reference an AA ba

My usage of VR comes and goes over time, often based on some trigger like an update to a VR game or a friend pulling me into a new game. This also describes my usage of VR: gaming. I enjoy playing Beat Saber, Until You Fall and Pistol Whip.

1.7 has RTG [1], can be worth a try. I always enjoyed the RTG worlds, but now I am mostly playing skyblock(-ish) packs, so I do not really care about terrain anymore. [1] https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods&#x2

That is what I like about using custom launchers. I am using Prism Launcher [1] which keeps all instances (mod packs for me) locally. It includes the MC version, Forge and all mods. If it gets too big for my main partition, I can just archi

Thank you for the link! I only knew the referenced folklore page, but never saw a picture and the following exchange. Was just about to post this story as well :)

This is not the case for all of Europe. At least here in Germany our gas nozzles have a lock, no need to hold it.

Reminds me of a prank I pulled with a mate on a colleague. They recently got standing desks and of course a bit of fun ensued with them. Over one weekend we build a remote control for it based on an ESP32, of course fully MQTT compatible. W

I hooked up my old (~25y) stereo to an RPi via AUX in. The RPi has MPD and a pulseaudio sink to play audio. And it can be controlled via Home Assistant. But the feature I like most is that it turns on/off the stereo via an infrared LED

Yes, unless a game is going with a "proper"/kernel-level anti cheat it likely only does a cursory check. One of my best examples is, years ago, if you had Cheat Engine (and I think OllyDbg) open when launching WoW it would sh

I have no experience with MS AAD, but I saw something similar with GWorkspace. The TOTP option is not shown by default, you need to add a security key (e.g. YubiKey) or maybe (never tested) an Android phone. You can then add a TOTP, remove

While GP didn't spell this out, they have, in my opinion, a point. If you use a cloud portal, usually web based (be it browser, electron or similar), that asks for your master password, you need to trust the provider that the master pa

The speed tests can also tell a different story than actual use, even if they are not gamed. I went a bit deep when my HTTPS/TCP downloads from my otherwise unloaded server and previously beefy CDNs were not reaching anywhere close to

For what it's worth, IDA now comes in an IDA Home version [1, 2]. It is a one year subscription for 365 USD (single arch) and is cloud tethered for at least the decompilers. I no longer have access to IDA Pro via my university, so I am

As a long time FF user my opinion of it took quite a hit recently. I wanted to hack together a small personal extension, likely outside the scope of what Tampermonkey can do easily. I was really shocked by the mandatory signature enforcemen

I would love for something like this to become mainstream, mostly from a privacy PoV. But, I think there are just too many different use cases, pitfalls, user problems and limitations. Something like a plug and play box could work for the v

I can say that number is at least 1. I enjoy gaming, but I have been fully on Linux for a few years now. My PC builds always need high CPU performance, both multi threaded for compile workloads and single threaded for games, as well as good
