If 200ppi is your spot you have to go back another decade to hit the IBM T220 (2001-2005): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_T220/T221_LCD_monitors

Those notches are about to turn 50! There's a lot of patents out there for various hand alignment helpers but the one that is closest to what everyone is used to is 3848723 [1] filed 23 July 1973.

I've been pretty happy with mailbox.org, German based and has support for various keys to use with custom domains (SPF/DKIM) including the ability to have the same custom domain used across multiple accounts (nice for extended family domains and the like, safe as you still need to make the DNS changes on that provider).

Pricing is reasonable and the limited support interaction I've had has been good.

The webmail seems to be OX [1].

Plenty of other people addressed the hex driver options - but if you mean the other way around (a drill bit with a hex base) those are also an option:

The blog post is... lacking but they have some half-decent technical reasons at [1] if you're interested.

Holy crap you weren't kidding!

The blog post needs to be shelved and redone as every listed reason feels post hoc while the reasons listed at that link ([1] for anyone who dislikes friction) are grounded in reality and show Signal being proactive.

He was definitely against the encryption-over-SMS feature of TextSecure as Android and smartphones more broadly grew in marketshare. He also wrote the blog post on how it doesn't matter if you have multiple messaging apps (or federation between them) because the notification area of your phone is the modern federation engine. I may be paraphrasing a bit heavily but the post is at [1].

I agree I can see him being at least OK with removing SMS but it seems at odds with what I felt was his overall view of "get the most people the most security we can" and by extension increasing the number of people using secure messaging services to normalize it so simply using encryption isn't seen as an outlier. The latter part is closer to moot now more than ever before with WhatsApp being E2E by default and Apple having huge marketshare in some markets with iMessage.

If you aren't already familiar with the concept of the 'third place' [1] it might be an interesting thing to learn more about.

There has been for a while (20+ years) a decline in enforced third places (e.g. declining religiosity/church attendance) in many parts of the Western world with little else taking that space. I know Sunday Assembly [2] exists in some places and I hope works for the communities it supports.

If you have a safe area it's worth testing how your car works, usually push-to-start is actually a multi-state button between Ignition & Accessory On, Ignition Off & Accessory On, and All Off.

Having a VPN back to your home IP really helps with the overseas logins in my experience. If it doesn't work turn on the VPN and it sees you coming from a 'trusted' IP and you're set.

The fact that I've had to learn this through trial & error and spend time & money setting up a personal VPN host is crazy.

The only alternative I found to Fastmail that was somewhat competitive in terms of tech & security features and not one of those countries was mailbox.org but their webmail is not Fastmail's and Germany isn't far behind those 5.

I wonder if FaceTime web [1] actually will work on Firefox or Chromium on Linux.

I agree on PM2.5 but gas is clearly worse from a CO2 (and other combustion byproducts) point of view compared to induction which is limited to 'just' the food items and the containers they're in.

Almost certainly designed to ASHRAE 62.2's specs so that you get enough ventilation through a combination of infiltration (leakage) and additional mechanical ventilation. It's certainly worth it and if designed as a continuous ventilation fan should be one of the lower (~15W) draw units. Not sure how to really measure effectiveness other than by trusting in the experts who came up with the spec and air quality as an indirect measure.

Is this because Betamax recorders and/or tapes had the same sort of 29:59 limit that some cameras have today (e.g. cheaper Canons)?

That reminds me of the slashdot moderation system - when a user gets modpoints they get to spend them on posts as they browse and indicate why they spent that modpoint that way (e.g. 'Troll' or 'Flamebait').

I've used Total Commander's Send to Wifi [1] before and found it workable for that use case (where both are on the same WiFi network; presumably you could use a hotspot for a place without WiFi at all).

I can't speak for lmilcin, but wide open is also critical in low light to minimize ISO noise or to even have a stop or 2 down from the widest to have a little width in the focal plane while still capturing action.

Agreed on the shots where you're at 1.4 and pushing the limits of your shutter speed.

I remember reading about being able to pull a fuse to disable cellular connectivity on Teslas a few years back and you could also opt-out of data collection but it was apparently an involved process over email.

Has anyone been through going 'radio silent' in a Tesla more recently?

>Different virus sizes, different mask effectiveness.

Not necessarily - when speaking and otherwise spreading aerosols they start out much larger than any virus particles contained within them and quickly dry out and shrink if in air (i.e. not caught in a mask) [1, 1um - 500um, between Table I & Fig 11].

If they were on their own, the small 'nanoparticle' regime (1-100nm) shows fairly good filtration in a variety of media [1st image in 3] thanks at least in part to the diffusion of particles through filter media. It's not the same by size by any means (with smaller often being the most passed particle size) but it varies with filter construction and treatment [3].

It's the grave accent - pretty rare in English outside of loan words from other languages.

Currently using it with maildir on Windows 10.

Reading through the GFiber TOS it's not clear that you must use a Google account - they refer often to "the email address used to setup your account" but you can have a Google account with an email address not serviced at Google.

So if you're willing to have multiple accounts it seems doable.

I agree. It might depend on where you start the 'netbook' definition and how you count 'most'.

The EeePC was x86, the Chromebook Pixel was x86 along with many that followed with balance being ARM variants.

More recently you have convertibles/ultrabooks and their stripped down cousins (e.g. Microsoft Surface Pro vs. Surface 3/Go/Go 2 and Surface 2, Surface RT, and Surface Pro X the latter 3 being ARM).

Ultimately the netbook niche has been squeeze by ultrabooks and tablets to few offerings if anyone is even bothering to market computers that way anymore.

It is possible if a bit convoluted [1, 2]. When I looked into it last year it seemed the good guides were focused on Clevis & Tang with a separate server (i.e. your PC at home on your network would boot but if away from the Tang server the PC would fall back to password). In a quick look it seems they may simply support TPM2 now although I haven't looked into how/if this is different to the article.

[1]: This is older with TPM1.2, but is the 'autoboot' similar to Windows BitLocker, https://ranzbak.nl/tpmluks/ [2]: https://blog.dowhile0.org/2017/10/18/automatic-luks-volumes-... [3]: https://redhat.slides.com/pladd/securing-automated-decryptio...

Back in the XP days it was a veneer on GIANT AntiSpyware which as I recall was viewed as a separate component to anti-virus back then. As things evolved you saw combined firewall/anti-spyware/virus/adware from companies like Norton/Symantec and as you note MSE was really MS's anti-virus entry in Vista & 7.

Nowadays 'anti-virus' subsumes all those products into one unified thing.

This is beautifully written; I stepped away from keeping up an in-depth understanding of silicon processing a bit before FinFETs took over and this feels like one of the best introductions to the basics of gate geometry of FETs.

The issue comes when an auto update regresses something that the user relied upon. As long as the automatic update has a 'downgrade' option that's tenable but most of the solutions out there make downgrading difficult.

I prefer automatic updates that are presented to the user for action, sadly feature update/release notes are often hidden or content-free (cf. Google's apps' updates on the Play Store) and downgrading path varies heavily with OS (easy on Linux, impossible on iOS).

And it seems reasonable for an employer. What about banks? The argument I'm coming up with just isn't as compelling for no other reason than I'm 'only' risking my money, not corporate access.

Copenhagen (among other places) has a pretty convenient app-based model for parking. You use one of a few competing apps on your phone and enter your car's registration plate. When you park you open the app and it pulls location and starts a timer. You pick an amount of time you'll be parked but the apps I've used have reminders and you can trivially extend parking as you feel appropriate.

When you get back in your car you open the app and 'stop parking' and the app calculates the cost of the time you were parked (taking into account varying overnight and congestion zone rates). At the end of the month you get billed for that month's charges. You can also have multiple personas if you have a work vehicle/card.

In parts of south Florida there's a somewhat similar system where there's only one app you can use and money is taken immediately for the duration of the time you choose (with a small service fee included, of course). If you move your car before the expiration of your purchased time, you lose that value unless you repark in the same area [1]. The similarity is that the app will remind you that your parking is going to expire soon and you can simply extend (and pay that small service fee again, of course). I've seen this prepay-via-app model at various private parking facilities in other US cities as well.

[1]: The system uses number codes for what area you're parked in so you don't need to have location services necessarily (e.g. parking garage) with the code changing every couple streets.
