Biking or swimming

It’s a Stargate Universe plot, even

Just give it a grill faceplate

Yup, FEX to translate x86 to ARM.

Unless your models have weird drivers you absolutely can have multiple disc drives

It’s definitely not fast, but at 10 minutes per spot it’s still plausible to set up some kind of sweep to slowly cover an entire item and let it run for a while. But you’ll absolutely need a stronger source than a flashlight, unless you’re only targeting small spots. 200 W seems plausible, which gives you ~20x the surface area (50 cm^2 every 10 minutes)

Most of those things would only be possible by hiding them in a system update

It’s possible but complicated.

Since apps have access to the TPM API they can encrypt their own data in such a way that only the app’s own authorized processes can retrieve the decryption key from the TPM chip

There’s measures they could use in theory, but if you switch keyboard app away from Google’s and set private text mode, enable screenshot protection, etc, then you should be good.

Do you want to keep the original file size or reduce it?

It’s possible to compress with minimal quality loss by transcoding (since you can switch from the old inefficient DVD codec to a modern one). But just ripping the ISO image of the disc is the easiest thing you can do and it preserves the original perfectly, so if you have enough disc space you could start with that and maybe compress later if you start to run out of space

That works well if you’re OK with using default options, not very user friendly the second you want to tweak stuff.

Surprise trinary!

For sites you visit occasionally, it’s better to enable tab isolation (use the containers feature) and then enable JS only for that domain (note the difference between allowing JS from that domain in any tab, vs only allowing that tab with that domain to use JS, you should do the latter)

If you’re switching to a different browser you may as well use the same browser but a second clean profile and use private tabs so it doesn’t retain history. Using private tabs in your main browser profile does also help but isn’t perfect because there’s still some metadata leaks occasionally.

Using a different browser could ironically make you easier to track - how unique you are is the main signal used to track you (user agent, OS, language, etc), and going for an even more rare config will help their tracking even if you delete session cookies. Especially if they have a tracker across multiple domains you visit from different browsers from the same IP, with similar device fingerprinting results across browsers. That’s a strong signal those sessions are linked. You want to NOT stand out to maintain your privacy.

Probably the combination of having a controller and touchscreen but NOT having a keyboard. Or recognizing the CPU series (SoC type). Or both.

You can either follow the instructions or spend one of your 9 lives

Took a look, and there’s some neat new stuff there but it’s really just the LEP lights and some of the new keychain lights (like the rotating head ones) that are noticably different, many of the rest feel like more of the same (quite literally just more features in the same old flashlights, USB and side lights and display in everything now, even a few more with integrated fans).

The Loop Gear does seem like it has an interesting combination of features, though (especially that batteries still are replacable). And might get a Zebralight headlight this time around (are they still the most efficient?) and the Wuben G5 looks neat too, alternatively that new Nitecore flat penlight…

And for that matter, are there any more new lights with sliders/rings for control besides that Nitecore pen light?

Hi again.

Natanael_L at reddit, haven’t been active for years, but there’s a chance one or two of you might remember me. Finally have a budget for flashlights again, and being here at Lemmy feels refreshing too.

Looking for new EDC lights now. Some good keychain / pocket clip light, and something powerful that’s like the Nitecore EC4 but more modern (efficient, high sustained output). Maybe also a new right angle flashlight with magnet (lost my old one years ago)

Blinkenlights

[Windows subsystem] for [executable environment] is the naming scheme. The default is Win32, there’s one for POSIX (practically never used), and Linux runs in another.

Malicious compliance is when you follow a order or law knowing that it will backfire on those who issued it.

“Lawfare” is a comparable term but not quite it (basically legal harassment campaigns).
