Sorry but I have to nitpick here. Nobody was ever able to verify the fingerprint was the same as the German defence ministers. What the attacker was able to do was take a high resolution photo of the defence ministers thumb and then produce

You can still get a TOTP code from Apple via SMS to your trusted phone numbers. When it prompts you for the TOTP code select “Didn’t get a verification code?” and you can pick one of your trusted phone numbers no problem. I have had to use

I have an old SFF Dell OptiPlex at my mothers house in another country. It isn't on 24/7 as I have it set to power on automagically weekly so it is up during my scheduled backup window. If I need it any other time a simple phone c

I saw the stories about Bionic Reading a few days ago and ended up going down the rabbit hole for a bit. What interested me was that it wasn't the weight of the letters that helped me read quicker but the shorter lines . The example

I used a Dell Precision running Linux and it was a very good experience with a lot of power. It is essentially an XPS 15 but you can opt-out of the dGPU and just have Intel Xe graphics which makes life easier with Linux if you don't ne

I totally agree. Not just iPhones either but the Mac too. I have a Dell Latitude laptop with a 3rd gen Intel i5, 8GB RAM and a 500GB SATA SSD that runs Fedora (any other other Linux) perfectly as well as Windows 10 (and 11 even though it

God damn that M1 ULTRA is a beast on paper for the power consumption. It’s what we expected but still I can’t wait to see real world numbers. Edit: and god damn again at it being in something as small as the new Mac Studio. Interested in pr

You would think so but in my personal experience people massively over estimate how competent they are in a language. Even more so when they haven't actually used it in a while (let's say >1 year). IMHO blindly asking for N+ ye

Agreed ‘years of experience’ is a crap measure. I’ve interviewed people that put 20+ years Linux experience on their C.V. yet knew nothing about grub or systemd (as examples). When pressed just a little bit turns out they installed Debian o

Indeed the newer Switch OLED model does have better battery life albeit still around the max 5 hour mark for most games apparently edging up to 7 hours for less demanding games (according to a brief search anyway).

The funny thing is the Game Gear and Switch battery life are actually very similar at 3-5 hours. It varies a little with the Switch as with lighter games and low screen brightness you can get 6 or so hours but playing something like Zelda B
