Wondering this also. Could be that the modes we see are all that's currently available.

Looks like the 4K streams won't be available for another 24+ hours:

> The BBC plans to release the special edition of Blue Planet II immediately after the final episode is broadcast on BBC One on Sunday.

Wendell, from the YouTube channel Level1techs, has worked with a Chinese(?) OEM on custom firmware for Displayport KVMs and is selling them:

Still more expensive than a 4k monitor, but heading in the right direction.

For certain definitions of 'high-end', maybe. You've been able to configure workstation-class laptops with 64 gb for a few years now.

And most mid- high-end laptops will happily accept 32GB, again going back a few years.

(Broadwell removed the density limitation that made 16GB DIMMs a no-go; anything that takes DDR4 should support 16GB SODIMMs, excepting the very low end Atom, Celeron etc.)

Not really sure about the headphone jack blocker; I'm not aware of an OS where the sound source can't be trivially switched in software, even when headphones are plugged in.

The likelihood is that if an attacker has the ability to record audio, they also have the ability to bypass this device.

And here I was thinking these would be questions about the moral / ethical / social implications of the ways in which many companies use these technologies..

I find tables far easier in md than anywhere else. You can distill them down to:

    Head | Head
    ---|---
    Row | row
    Row | row

Etc.

Where is Bret Victor?

> Here are year-end reports from HARC’s six Principal Investigators.

Only 5 are listed...

It is. I'm referring to:

- A running gag that, iirc, covered multiple seasons, about the 'indestructibility' of a red 90s Toyota Hilux. Performing destructive stunts and then driving away with minimal/no repairs. No other cars were involved in this segment.

- A special, hour-long episode involving a grueling trip to the pole in a fleet of brand new, red Toyota Hiluxes.

Whichever way you look at it, this was fantastic advertising and brand reinforcement for Toyota.

It's a shame this is so selectively applied.

See, for example:

- The constant mention of speaking to people 'over Skype' on the News

- Publicization of Twitter hashtags on Questiontime and other programs

- Hours worth of Top Gear footage (and the entire Arctic Special) that were effectively Toyota Hilux advertisements

"...pursuing and obtaining..."

There's an extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/u2f-support-a...

Works perfectly for me.

Does it support the Exchange protocol?

First time I've heard of B2. Makes you wonder why it's not S3-compatible in the first place...

'perhaps'

Even 50 Billys comes to just £1750 here in the UK.

(More if you want colour, of course...)

How do you manage to spend 3k in IKEA?

And even moreso, the new 'macbook'

Is this an official GNU project?

I think the assumption is that any onboard life would be destroyed by the descent into Saturn.

His address is also interesting:

   The Road
   6th of October City, Giza
   Egypt

Some people want to know how the nuts & bolts work as opposed to putting together borrowed Lego blocks. Linux has more than proven the utility of diversely-sourced development, and Kubernetes benefits from the same right now. I'd be worried if that changed.

Also, there are (and will continute to be) plenty of companies/projects that can't use public clouds for a variety of security, compliance, performance and business inertia concerns ('concerns', not necessarily 'reasons').

Was client-side Exchange sync ever released?

Tried N1/Nylas Mail a few times in hope of this killer feature... But was put off first by having to give Nylas credentials, and then by the fact the new local sync engine didn't support Exchange.

It boils down to what is I think it's one of McLaren's major roadblocks right now - lack of integration with the engine supplier.

Alonso (or others in the team) had likely run Pouhon flat in a simulator. He, and his engineers, knew it was within the realm of possibility for the car. But, to what level of detail do McLaren's simulations model the energy system? Do they run real ECU code/parameters? Probably not.

I have a HyperFIDO Mini and a Key-ID and have had no problems with them across at least 3 machines.

Very surprised about them causing reboots (I assume this means hard resets?) on the reviewer's computer.

I know this is written in jest, but it kind of makes me want to buy one of those MMO mice with 12+ buttons on the side, to try it.

I'm not sure about the rest of Europe, but in the UK most credit cards don't cost money.

Unless you don't pay your bills, of course. But direct debit takes care of that.

Paternosters. You say terrifying, I say fun.

There's one in Leicester University (not the only one in the UK, I'm sure).

Really not that dangerous, with a cable near the top of each aperture that triggers a stop if it's touched.

> 10.2.2 Layer 1: Integrity (optional)8 > This layer uses a to-be-developed DM target that allows the detection of incorrect data as it is read, by using extra space to record the results of checksum/hash functions on the data blocks, and then compare the results with what the blockdev actually returned. This will enable Stratis to detect data corruption when the pool is non-redundant, and to repair the corruption when the pool is redundant. Such a DM target could use DIF information if present.

This (and other aspects of Strasis) seem like sensible solutions, especially in Linux-land[1]. Implementing this (and I assume dedupe, which is penned for v3 but on which no information is yet provided) at the DM layer means that other FSs can also benefit from this work.

[1] By this I mean that Linux, both as a dev community and as an OS, seems much more comfortable with individual, composable components that can be tied together in different configurations, than monolithic one-size-fits-many solutions like ZFS (and... systemd).

> two of which appear to be unused (I'm not sure how they reached that conclusion, I can't see the video).

Have seen the video. Der8auer planned a test to ascertain this, but was unable. AMD later confirmed it to him.

It's been removed.

Seems AMD retracted permission: https://youtu.be/JbffGyrkjMM

Managed to see it before it was taken away. I wonder why AMD changed their mind on this... Could Threadripper and EPYC be cross-compatible after all?
