This command ("Combination Stick Command") is also useful in other situations: the same command can both start and stop the motors. It is exactly what you are going to use when launching and landing in your hand; once you are hold

Put the left stick down right (4-5 o'clock) and the right stick down left (7-8 o'clock). It will turn off the motors instantly.

Use DJI RC/RC Pro. Still based on Android, but standalone device. DJI Fly is fine there.

I meant the UI; NT4 and 2000 were the nice and clean ones, for enterprise and professionals; ME had already first signs of the cartoon world, that XP continued on. Looking back at the comment, yes, you are right. Both lines could share unde

MacOS breaks compatibility much faster than Linux. New features or APIs in MacOS are adopted much faster than in Linux world, too (see also: Wayland. Or, on similar complexity level, global dark mode).

I don't understand your comment. The original poster asked about _fine-grained permissions_. Not about _runtime permissions_. Details matter. Android did have very fine-grained permissions since first betas. Yes, they were install-time

Since start. Originally, they were too fine-grained though.

How come? Gtk1 is historic, Gtk2 has been obsolete for a decade, Gtk3 has been the thing since 2011 and Gtk4 is a brand-new thing, where they finally were able to make some changes that were on hold for a decade, since they would break the

Because "mobile". Tables/grids do not work with mobile, so they are often skipped entirely. Annoying, I agree.

There are still some people salty, that Gtk3 was breaking themes (not API or ABI, but themes). It was communicated explicitly that themes are going to break, the theme engine implementation was not fully ready when Gtk3 was originally relea

No, you don't really need a smartphone. You want one. Slightly different thing. Nuance, you know. Sure, you can have it, nobody is going to tell you that you can't. But be honest to yourself; nobody ever died of hunger for not

Electron apps are not exactly lightweight either; it is about first time that someone uses them in an argument. Query Analyzer was written with win32-api. No electron, no java, no c#, nothing (thought it might used MFC, not sure about that)

Dbeaver is many things, but I would not call it lightweight. It is written in Java, after all. It is great, but Query Analyzer-alike it is not.

Randomly as in any dnf update can bring the breakage that you might not know upfront. With minor releases you would read release notes, check your modules and knew, whether you can update or not.

Not really; ABI and kABI breaks came only with minor releases. With Stream, they come randomly. Also, Stream support period is much shorter than the corresponding major release (e.g. Stream 8 till May 2024, RHEL 8 till 2029).

You would be surprised. Alpine as a base image is perfectly fine; it is a tiny base system after all. RH base image is also relatively small (compared to full RHEL system). It is also completely useless, as you cannot dnf install anything w

And this is something that CentOS Stream breaks and that makes it not an alternative anymore. RHEL did ABI or kABI breaks only with minor releases. CentOS Stream can do them randomly, just like any other distribution.

Not necessarily, might be just an observer. You would be shocked, but it is very similar in EU countries too.

Air polution != "toxic gases from cars, taxis and motorbikes". That's only subset. Cities were dirty holes (including bad air) centuries before invention of cars. Continuing, they didn't measure anything. They estimated.
