I can't speak to the bigger picture but I ordered an AMD-based laptop on Dec. 23, initial arrival date was Feb. 2, it was moved five times and is now Apr. 1. When I called I was told they (lenovo) were waiting for AMD to "make mor

Even this isn't enough anymore. About one or two years ago I was fooling around with DNS queries out of boredom and I did a simple nslookup on a domain I knew would be NX (it was a .ss address), lo and behold it returned an IP and the

Take a look at LADSPA plugins, I know pulse supports them but I don't know if anyone has made a normalizer plugin. Edit: After a quick search, this may be a bit easier than fiddling with LADSPA: https://github.com/wwmm&

You gotta put on a good show for the "tough on crime" crowd plus how do you expect them to justify funding if they aren't geared up like they are staging a raid on a terrorist stronghold to arrest some 20 year old for a coupl

Not that I was that worried that "revolution" was currently happening but when I saw nice juicy high-res face pics my first thought was 2-3 days max before HRT or the US marshals are kicking down doors. The effort was so low.

"Developers expect more than two-thirds of users will block tracking when they see a popup appear within their apps." That sounds like a pretty resounding "fuck off" to me. The lesson taken away from that is double-down,

Building a performant wifi network is a serious pain. Building material, channel congestion, network load, AP placement, other sources of RFI, etc all cause issues. Your best bet is look for APs that support 802.11r or v (also check that cl

I normally never have any RGB components in my personal builds but I was asked to build my niece a gaming rig for Christmas, figuring a kid would probably like a bit more of a blinged out system I sprung for RGB fans, RAM, water-cooler, and

Might want to look at an Amazfit bip paired with Gadgetbridge. Gadgetbridge can export sleep, heartrate, and exercise data. It exports as a db though I have yet to fool around with it or with my raw data.

I am not sure this will hurt delivery apps as much as restaurants, seems to me like it would compel resturants to enter into contract with delivery services (giving them an upper-hand) else they lose business. Maybe pre-covid that might hav

This is a genuine question (and a very tangential one that will hopefully not generate discontent): Has Microsoft ever explored the idea of open sourcing Windows? I don't know much about the propritary side of software but it seems lik

I wonder how practical it would be to add something like a limeSDR/USRP/HackRF to a tinycheck to be able to at least detect this. I doubt it would be affordable for most individuals but I could see cost justification for orgs.

Interestingly in William Gibson's novel Spook Country part of the plot involves the hand-off of several iPods to an ex-CIA agent throughout the book. Read it a while ago so I am not sure he ever elucidated what they contained.
