Adobe provides PDF viewer that is embedded in Edge...

Microsoft leaves mitigation of this known and quite powerful phishing vector behind additional licensing requirements. You cannot reliably block Microsoft Entra device code flow without Entra ID Premium P1.

Password managers, FIDO keys will not help you as the authentication flow is happening in Microsoft servers.

In EU:

Violators of GDPR (personal data) may be fined up to €20 million, or up to 4% of the annual worldwide turnover of the preceding financial year, whichever is greater.

Under NIS2 (cybersecurity), financial penalties may be up to either €10 million or 2% of the global yearly revenue, again, whichever is the greater amount.

Teams works similarly in browser tab and "natively". Slack was similar if I remember correctly.

You should try MS Copilot which uses open source Python libraries to interact with Office file formats.

The libraries themselves are OK, but MS uses them stupidly. If you want to fill out some form in DOCX or XSLX format you will get broken formatting. And this is from Office company.

Well there is https://www.crowdsupply.com/eevengers/thunderscope

With USB4/TB you can get quite far in both latency and throughput. Actually there are network adapters with TB connection that are just TB to PCIe adapters and PCIe network card.

You should not have to hack Explorer to make it usable.

Now you have "rounded edges" in Edge that add a content area limiting margins to all sides. Also, they took an open source browser and do not provide the source for Edge. So much for love of open source.

One shop network used blue paper here but changed to white some time ago.

Contrast was not great but I guess the price was the reason for the change.

I'm trying paid tier Gemini and it doesn't allow to keep have personal chat history when you disable training on your data, on reload of the page your chat is gone. Even free tier of ChatGPT allows disabling training on your data while allowing to keep such basic functionality.

Some technical advancements are not worth it if you do not respect your users.

Without unofficial bypasses of MS online account requirements you would not come to a point where activation is a concern. No internet access is not enough of a reason for MS let you use your device.

Still in some cases you have to wait a few minutes to get working Start menu search or menu itself on a new not low-end device.

You ran unverified debloat scripts (that could break in unexpected ways) on a clean "Pro" system to make it usable. It is and should be unacceptable.

By the way, Home version does not differ in annoyances from Pro version in any significant way in my experience.

Olimex does provide both open source hardware and open source software for example: https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/STMP1/STMP157-OLin...

Speaking of online use please see: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-online/ https://www.collaboraonline.com/collabora-online/ https://www.onlyoffice.com/docs

I really wish the people who put so much effort into software like OpenWRT would put some of that effort into managing multiple devices in a nice, unified manner. The tooling could be so much better.

There is OpenWISP: Leveraging Linux OpenWrt, OpenWISP is an open-source solution for efficient IT network deployment, monitoring & management.

For me real grain looks much better than digital smoothness. That is important for big prints.

It does support calculation: https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/swriter/guide...

240V AC and 5V DC manage to live close in a charger without problems. Problems with quality does not depend on voltage. I love the concept of PoE with one exception that it requires constant 1W or similar load to work even if it is not needed for low power device.

* A microsoft account is only needed for Windows 11 Home. A "semi-power user" is hopefully not using that edition of Windows...

Both Home and Pro require Microsoft account to install and start using. Then you can create local only users in both editions and delete user joined to Microsoft account. This is standard operation even in OEM installs.

What should be noted, a cost effective M365 backup solution "Synology Active Backup for Microsoft 365" has an external server requirement for OAUTH: https://kb.synology.com/en-af/DSM/help/ActiveBackup-Office36... That seems to have created possibility for quite serious exploit: https://modzero.com/en/blog/when-backups-open-backdoors-syno...

Yes it is not perfect. At least in Lithuania you can use government issued personal ID to sign PDFs that pass Adobe/Foxit checks of signature authenticity. Trusted timestamp is part of a valid signature as it allows to check validity of signee certificate at the time of signing.

Adobe says: Source of Trust obtained from European Union Trusted Lists (EUTL). This is a Qualified Electronic Signature according to EU Regulation 910/2014.

Foxit says: Source of Trust obtained from European Union Trusted Lists (EUTL). This is a Qualified Electronic Signature according to EU Regulation 910/2014.

You can try using DP adapter/cable: https://web.archive.org/web/20160708162656/https://support.a...

Ubiquiti NVR does not support ONVIF on-camera detected motion events.

Zyxel GS1900 are quite nice managed switches for reasonable money.

Actually, in most situations with this problem it is possible to solder 2 additional resistors inside the offending USB-C device. I have done that on a flashlight and can confirm that it fixed the problem.

"Odometer" for HDDs and SSDs are already provided in SMART data that is more or less standatized and accessible using many tools. The data is not resettable by mortals similarly to car odometers.

If you use it or have it installed after 30 days without a buying, your company has violated the terms of the license.

If you disable watch history in Youtube it conveniently disables all front page suggestions and you can also disable autoplay: https://www.theverge.com/2023/8/8/23824672/youtube-blank-hom...

Many Asus Expertbook laptops support RAM replacement, has multiple storage slots, ethernet and other ports.
