Only downside I've encountered using W10 IoT LTSC is that I had the temporarily change the currentbuild key (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion) in registry to 19045 to be able to install docker and WSL2.

I'd change mine so that the portrait and landscape button layout were separately configurable.

Focal length wouldn't even be an issue if the photographer was taking the photos from the same position. The fish-eye effect is literally because the photographer is closer. Cropping a photo with a different focal length will give the same composition and difference will be the distortion introduced by the camera and the image processing.

Neat. I usually just use 7zip to open .exe and .msi files.

A game such as Turing Complete will give the same sort of understanding of the fundamentals of computing, although not a physical learning experience.

Assuming that they're capable of changing the wing angle of attack, they seem to be doing the same motions that dragonfly wings make during flight, including take-off. Here is a slow motion video of one taking off (note the vertical motion of the wings): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOc8WTzMljw

IzzyOnDroid F-Droid Repo has Protonmail. Proton has a mail bridge application which let's you use desktop mail clients.

You'd be better off with an engine specifically designed to be efficient. Turbines are great at many things, but they are complex and don't scale down very well. They were primarily used where high torque and power is required, and they just aren't practical outside of that.

A better option would be a constant speed ICE engine running at it's peak efficiency (like a diesel-electric train).

Seems pretty self-explanatory:

Or you know you could just try to work it out for yourself.

Whole thing screams scam or April Fools joke. There's one commit to the source code repository.

Anyone want to try it on a VM and report back?

The only thing that I could find was from 2017, where phonearena were apparently re-injecting ads using WebRTC to bypass adblocking. So perhaps you are using an old blocklist such as this: https://s3.amazonaws.com/lists.disconnect.me/simple_ad.txt.

This article makes one assumption without justification and then follows it to a wrong conclusion.

When bees sting other insects they can sting them multiple times, like a wasp. If you give them time a bee will usually be able to work it's stinger out of you and go on it's merry way. Their stingers just happen to get stuck in skin.

Here's a basic video discussing the topic: https://youtu.be/nTVsqc2CCGo

The article says that they're biconcave, which means that the thinnest part of the lens is in the centre (similar to a red blood cell). For high-myopia lenses, they often remove the lens material away from the centre to limit the maximum thickness at the expense of reducing the field of view. The resulting surface is usually left unpolished, but the lens underneath will still bend light, resulting in the circular patterns you mentioned. In this case a very large amount of material is removed as they would be impossible to use with a conventional frame otherwise. The alternative would be to use glasses with very small lenses.

Inline whitespace summation at the same time as mathematical operations seems like a problem. I don't think that there's a standard order of operation for that sort of thing.

Would it still be a bicycle if the pedals aren't connected to the drive? This configuration would make it more like a scooter with a pedal generator.

I just put onion2k's version as a script in violent monkey, set to run only on NH.

If you want to store you passwords locally, then at least use something like Keepass or KeepassXC. It's far from a perfect solution as it's still vulnerable to targeted attacks when it's being used if your computer is compromised. But at least they're not store in plain text. Also password auto-typing and generation are nice to have.

You can sync the encrypted files to your phone or other computers.

I just wish that they'd add a text or symbol in the top of the global and local dynamic filtering boxes. Every single time that I use it I have to look up which one's which, because it isn't obvious and I can't remember.

That reminds me of a quote about chlorine trifluoride:

"...It can be kept in some of the ordinary structural metals—steel, copper, aluminum, etc.—because of the formation of a thin film of insoluble metal fluoride that protects the bulk of the metal ... If, however, this coat is melted or scrubbed off, and has no chance to reform, the operator is confronted with the problem of coping with a metal-fluorine fire. For dealing with this situation, I have always recommended a good pair of running shoes."

The mechanical keyboard is a 61 keys Chinese bootleg.

This guy obviously doesn't know anything about keyboards.

Why is no-one commenting that nearly half their expenses are in salaries and wages. They have 354 staff. That's ~130 000 USD per person.

Modern MS documents files are zipped XML. To do this comparison they would need to unzip each file, run it through a rendering engine and hold it in memory, and then do version comparison. For this to be feasible you would need to use a file format that supports this sort of comparison in a way that isn't very resource intensive.

Sed looks like someone decided to make regex into a programming language.

No, the step that converts the aluminium hydroxide into aluminium metal is an extremely energy intensive step. You won't be saving energy unless you use solar thermal to heat the kiln. And you'd have to do this if you wanted to use the batteries again as the batteries are single use.

This was from a letter from the Department of Homeland Affairs in regards to the Assistance and Access Act. Notice that they cite terrorism as necessitating the Act, but in actuality they just abuse it.

"Encryption is a vital security measure for digital data and the Australian Government is committed to strong protections for personal and commercial information. It makes the communications and devices of all people more secure. While encryption is an important aspect of modern communications it is routinely employed by terrorists, child sex offenders and criminal organisations to mask illegal conduct. This is an impediment to our agencies’ ability to detect and disrupt serious threats to the public.

Rapid technological change means that valuable sources of evidence and intelligence are diminishing; 95 per cent of the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation’s (ASIO) most dangerous counter-terrorism targets and 90 per cent of communications lawfully intercepted by the Australian Federal Police (AFP) are encrypted and unreadable. By 2020, it is expected that all communications among terrorists and organised crime groups will be encrypted. The Assistance and Access Act was introduced as a direct response to this challenge. The legislation passed both Houses on 6 December 2018 and received Royal Assent on 8 December 2018.

The need for a modern and fit-for-purpose legal framework was highlighted by the fatal terrorist attack in Melbourne in November 2018, and the subsequent disruption of alleged planning for a mass casualty attack by three individuals. Encrypted communications commonly facilitate the planning and execution of such attacks and it is the Government’s duty to ensure that Australia’s law enforcement and security agencies have the requisite tools to protect the Australian public.

The Assistance and Access Act balances the needs of investigators with important limitations and safeguards that protect the privacy of Australians, maintain the security of digital systems and ensures law enforcement’s powers are used appropriately. Robust transparency, oversight and independent scrutiny measures ensure that industry and the public can maintain confidence in the products and services that allow them to communicate securely online. The new laws are not about breaking encryption. It is paramount that the services and devices that Australians rely on remain secure. Through the provisions of the Assistance and Access Act, Government can partner with industry to modernise investigations and prosecute criminals that hide in online spaces while ensuring their assistance does not make the communications of innocent parties vulnerable. That is why the Assistance and Access Act clearly prohibits law enforcement from requiring a communications or device provider to build systemic weaknesses or backdoors into their systems (so called ‘back doors’). The Assistance and Access Act also states a provider cannot be prevented from fixing known weaknesses.

Australian agencies are committed to working collaboratively with industry. The regime sets out how this collaboration will occur and builds greater partnerships between providers and Australia’s key law enforcement and security agencies. This is a framework for assistance and does not allow for unwarranted access to communications content or data. Access to this material remains subject to an underlying warrant or authorisation and strong oversight.

The Government undertook an extensive three-stage consultation process to develop and consult on these measures, engaging with industry and the public on the entirety of the Act. Significant changes were made in response to feedback from the technology community and civil society – this consultation process improved the legislation, and ensures a more robust response to the challenges posed by a rapidly evolving communications environment."

It looks like you can use EncFS and TrueCrypt now on Android, with a few different apps. But I'm not sure how good the implementation is, or if you need to be rooted.

Shouldn't '<-' be used instead of '=' for variable assignments, as they aren't the same thing in R.

I have Ice Caps - they sure are warped. Personally I'm looking forward to KAT profile, as well as MDA (with readable the legends) and MT3.

I would expect you to be interested in DSS and the new SA-P from SP.

Haven't you heard about the new low-profile cherry MX switches? Also Kailh choc switches are much better than Cherry ML.
