Some devices can also be more efficient when using 230V. Eg: PSUs

Aaaand the issues turned into a shitpost

My Client didn't receive the update even after refreshing the repository.

I was able to get the new version by searching for F-Droid and going to the "versions" section and click update on the latest version

Not sure if it's based on this, but Ken also talked about a similar, but multiplayer game, to play with random people at Bell Labs which sounded fun.

I wonder if the source code for that exists too.

I absolutely love Berkeley Mono and the author’s efforts into perfecting the font. It has been my favorite font since it was first released. Some fonts don’t go beyond the initial release for fixing minor issues, so I appreciate these updates. While I understand that Ligatures are controversial, it’s still good to add the option for people who likes it.

In another note, I really enjoy the simplicity in the website design.

The two most accurate keyboards i used were the old Fleksy before it was bought and the BlackBerry Virtual Keyboard on Android. The Blackberry had the most interesting autocomplete / suggestion feature by putting the words on top of each letter. Typing “Example” can be as simple as typing “e” “x” then swiping up on the “a” if it had the word example on it. This allows more room for suggestions. Wish there were apps like that on IOS

There is also the problem with display settings. HiDPI option on higher resolutions is no longer available after upgrade.

In my opinion, 1password is definitely more secure. 1password generates a key when registering which you cannot restore. So not only an attacker need to know your password, they also have to know the generated sequence. This is helpful for people who tend to use easy to break passwords.

1pasaword is not perfect, but it’s far better than lastpass

To add to that, it annoys me that it's still not possible (I know an extension exists) to change the default terminal on the right click menu "Open in Terminal"

“The changes will mirror the same requirements Microsoft originally added to Windows 11 Home last year, meaning you won’t be able to avoid Microsoft Accounts by creating a local user account during setup.”

If I remember correctly, when you install Win11 Home, it forces you to login with a Microsoft account. But the easy workaround is to unplug the ethernet cable, windows will realize it can’t connect and the local account option should appear.

Nevertheless, It’s stupid that MS wants this behavior by default

One less popular extension to add to others list: ublacklist

Helps you exclude any site from your search engine easily.

Interestingly, the first two registry steps are actually the same as the previous windows. Having it behind a hash seems way too user hostile though.

The only thing i really hated is how they pushed their new right click menu.

they still don’t want to pick between their UI. Using the new unfinished UI content to navigate to the old one is just stupid.

To be fair, python way of handling versions is the worst and that even goes to the package maintainers. Especially what happened to python 2 -> python3. I don’t like the logic of no version specified = python 2. I have made the mistake of thinking i have the right python binary only to realize it gives syntax error for being python 2

Wow, probably one of the best guides i have seen for git. Wish i knew this existed when i was a beginner

I don’t know what counts as high severity if that’s considered low.

I use IVPN. While it’s pricey, the company cares about security and privacy. They publish a third party security audits frequently. I haven’t had any issue using their service. They also support wireguard, which is a plus.

People really make it as if it’s a better solution. there are multiple reasons why apple still doesn’t like allowing third party to take control. One reason means that trusting the third party applications means trusting privacy on the sub applications and apple have been trying to be more transparent on every app in their store. Another is how the payment system works. Yes, apple takes a big chunk of money and it may be absurd, but I wouldn’t want applications to end up being like google play apps, where i have to trust the company for not stealing my payments info or using their own payment method to track costumers without apple knowledge. not to mention if the company got cyber attacked and they store my payment information. Opening things up for third party may make things better if you read privacy policies and trust companies that you know are trustworthy, but it takes the privacy and security out of apple hands. Add to that how certain companies will definitely exploit that system, Facebook would probably hide their app inside an appstore to avoid privacy policy being transparent. Apple acting as a middleman for every app in the store isn’t that bad if you consider all that, and i am sure we would see many articles blaming apple if things go bad in a third party app.

To me, i think C is a powerful language that is weakened by 2 things:

1- Trying to find the proper style and methods to write few lines of code. The reason for this is because C is an old language that kept changing. Thus, you can read a book, yet find someone to tell you “you shouldn’t do it that way”.

2- compilers made C into different flavors. Microsoft C compiler provides scanf_s with the old scanf being deprecated. In the other hand, gcc has different approaches without the scanf_s that Microsoft has. This can be so annoying to use.

The full readme is worth the read about chromium/chrome. But this highlights edge differences. No browser is perfect, but you can always be able to restrict things or use GPo baselines to limit browser use.

Out of all Google projects that they put to the grave, they commit to this stupid service.
