If you have a colour laser printer, not only are the tracking dots not opt in, but there is no way to opt out.

Superfest was a brand of ion-exchange toughened drinking glasses. Ion-exchange toughened glass was invented by Steven Kistler in the 1960s, and commercialised by Corning shortly after.

Gorilla Glass is essentially the same thing, and it (or similar products from other manufacturers) is on nearly every smartphone and tablet sold today, so in some sense it's more widespread than it has ever been.

Another reason it might not have caught on for drinking glasses is (aside from being much more expensive to produce), when it breaks it shatters into a huge number of _sharp_ shards, whereas tempered glass shatters into mostly blunter cubes. You can get tempered glass drinking glasses at IKEA.

10Gbps fibre uses significantly less power than 10Gbps copper ethernet.

Ford no longer makes traditional passenger cars. They now only sell SUVs, trucks, and sports cars.

You can see this if you go to https://shop.ford.com/showroom/ and select sedan or hatchback in the left filters. No results.

The approach some JS projects have taken is to use Husky, which automatically sets up the git hooks when you install the project's dependencies during development.

There seems to be some JS on the page that messes with the URL. Try this one: https://web.archive.org/web/20260421141017/https://claude.co...

No, the author is a crank named Arthur Firstenberg, one of the original "microwaves will give you cancer" people.

There are plenty of snappy examples. Off the top of my head: Discord, Netflix, Signal Desktop, WhatsApp Web.

Just because a web application uses React and is slow, it does not follow that it is slow because of React.

It's perfectly possible to write fast or slow web applications in React, same as any other framework.

Linear is one of the snappiest web applications I've ever used, and it is written in React.

No. What it can affect though is the bandwidth of the cable, meaning e.g. for HDMI cables, they might not support higher resolutions or framerates. If it's on the border you might see random disconnects or screen blanks.

The quality degrading is not something you will see, as it's a digital protocol.

"Audiophile grade" HDMI cables are likely to just be a Shenzhen bargain-bin special with some fancy looking sheathing and connectors. I would trust them less than an Amazon Basics cable.

With EVs, most of your charging should be done at home, with fast charging mostly just existing for trips.

I know not everyone can charge at home (especially if you live in an apartment), but the solution to that is pretty straightforward and a lot more convenient compared with trying to scale up fast charging to match petrol stations.

From my understanding, the new CT machines are able to characterise material composition using dual-energy X-ray, and this is how they were able to relax the rules.

Mods didn't remove it, user flags did.

There are definitely use cases. Pis have lower power consumption than NUCs. This is the main reason I went for one to run Home Assistant rather than a NUC.

I have a NAS/home server that I could put it on but I don't want my home automation going down when I tinker with it.

That is not how PKI works. Your cert provider does not have a copy of your private key to give out in the first place.

Having the private key of the root cert does not allow you to decrypt traffic either.

If you don't want anything to do with EA, Konami ain't much better. They actively sabotage their former employees job prospects.

> One employee from a staffing agency said that Konami "files complaints to gaming companies who take on its former employees," causing one game company to "warn its staff against hiring ex-Kon" - "ex-Kon" being a nickname for ex-Konami employees. "If you leave the company, you cannot rely on Konami's name to land a job," one former employee said.

Rust is already making substantial inroads in browsers, especially for things like codecs. Chrome also recently replaced FreeType with Skrifa (Rust), and the JS Temporal API in V8 is implemented in Rust.

One aspect of Transmeta not mentioned by this article is their "Code Morphing" technique used by the Crusoe and Efficeon processors. This was a low level piece of software similar to a JIT compiler that translated x86 instructions to the processor's native VLIW instruction set.

Similar technology was developed later by Nvidia, which had licensed Transmeta's IP, for the Denver CPU cores used in the HTC Nexus 9 and the Carmel CPU cores in the Magic Leap One. Denver was originally intended to target both ARM and x86 but they had to abandon the x86 support due to patent issues.

bcrypt is the industry standard.

Usually presents as a keyboard that types commands, yeah. Win-R -> powershell -> execute whatever you want.

There's no way to test on Safari without either buying Apple hardware or subscribing to services like Browserstack.

This is a problem of Apple's own making.

By "pivot into mobile" I suspect the other poster is referring to Facebook Home, an ill-fated Android skin and line of smartphones.

Amprius has released a statement:

> Amprius Technologies, Inc. has never developed or manufactured batteries for power banks. For accuracy, please attribute the certification issue to Apex (Wuxi), not Amprius. Recent reports have incorrectly linked Amprius Technologies, Inc. to a battery certification issue. The company involved is Apex (Wuxi) Co., Ltd., formerly known as Amprius (Wuxi) Co., Ltd., a Chinese lithium battery manufacturer based in Wuxi, China.

> Apex (Wuxi) was once a subsidiary of Amprius Inc. but was never part of Amprius Technologies, Inc. In early 2022, Apex was spun off, renamed, and has operated independently since, with no ties or relationships to Amprius Technologies, Inc.

You probably haven't looked at it for a while. It's a conformant OpenGL implementation. Zink is now the default for Nvidia GPUs in Mesa, replacing Nouveau.

You can also set it in the application manifest, which is recommended over setting it programmatically: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/hidpi/settin...

- Fractional scaling: That's because X11 itself does not support it. Many older Windows apps also have problems with fractional scaling.

- HDMI 2.1: The HDMI Forum blocked it, as they don't want the details of HDMI 2.1 publically available. If you can, use DisplayPort, which is an actual open standard, and is better anyway. Nvidia works because they implemented it in closed-source firmware instead. https://www.phoronix.com/news/HDMI-2.1-OSS-Rejected

Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch should be forced to open up as well.

Closed ecosystems only benefit the corporations that control them.

Apple accepts them, but Google requires a physical address.

The red colour is iron oxide (i.e. rust).
