I didn't know this existed. I had claude put this together for me from scratch a week ago. Tmux and claude and telegram is a really powerful combo!

I rooted my phone for years but the lack of contactless and trying to stay one step ahead of Google trying to stop you using it (frequent messing with shamiko, lsposed and all the rest, delicately doing updates, only for it to eventually fail randomly).

Being able to pay with your phone is just too useful.

Unfortunately not every country in Europe. Zero banks in Ireland have implemented SEPA Instant and transfers still take at least a day. Thankfully though they have a deadline to implement this that's coming up soon and will be forced to comply.

How many of these variants or noteworthy viruses kill as many people? Genuine question, because covid has been on a different scale to SARS, MERS or any of the various animal flu pandemics, in terms of R number and how difficult it is to control.

What about their covid measures put you off? When for so much of the pandemic they were seen as absolute world leaders and were living as normal when the rest of us were in lockdowns?

I tried to do a college end of year project in Symbian, and couldn't get anything to work for months. This was likely a combination of lack of ability as much as the SDKs problem, but it definitely was not novice friendly.

I pivoted to J2ME with about a week to go in the project and managed to get an MVP working in time, after 3 months of wrestling with Symbian.

You can create your own DSM powered NAS using Xpenology to load the DSM software on normal hardware.

It's more fiddling but you can get a very powerful NAS very cheaply this way.

Definitely get a cheap sim card wherever he lands. The EU abolished all roaming charges for data and calls so he'll be able to use whatever data and calls he has in all EU countries.

Some countries have extremely good value pre paid sim cards with 20 gigs of data often coming in under €20 a month.

You don't understand. They mean the laptop literally called just the Macbook. It's a 12 inch fanless laptop.

This is why these 'simple' naming schemes are confusing.

Given its an open source app, it should be reasonably easy for the censor to reverse engineer the algorithmically generated domains. Frequent tiny updates would be an interesting solution though. Now that most mobile apps can deliver just deltas to save bandwidth it'd be viable.

I've read that they won't be using them, because they generally have professional setups with proper lighting and DSLRs. They also then edit photos before posting them.

I got asked some of these questions literally yesterday by Google and you're right. The wording was how you've presented it, not how he did.

You're exactly right. I was asked some of these exact questions yesterday. The guy should have realised what he was dealing with, the recruiters don't claim to be technical, and the questions are flagged as being straight forward pre screen questions.

The lack of a Linux client really really pisses me off.

Could you elaborate on what you mean here?

Another potential revenue generator for Magic, partner with large organisations so they can offer the service to their employees. If the global corporation where I work can trust files of thousands of employees to a third party cloud sync service, I'm sure this can be done.

While I agree that it's ridiculous that this is the case, I side with the students who were given a choice and chose the physical calculator. The thought of doing Numerical Analysis problems and long calculations on an app sounds excruciating, and I know that Accounting classes would have taken an order of magnitude longer without tactile feedback.

The replacement for a $100 problem is to buy students iPads and use an app and touchscreen? That's not a viable solution whatsoever for the vast majority of schools. The real solution is for schools to simply advocate using a cheaper and similarly functioned calculator. I used a Casio EL531 all through school and college and while it didn't graph, it covered me for everything in an Engineering degree.

There's almost no hack needed here, as the article says, they basically opened up remote code execution to anyone. That's shockingly bad.

They use 'barebones' Clevo shells, which are then configured by different vendors.

I have a laptop based on W230SD and I'm very happy with it. It contains a proper i7, not the underpowered U model and also has a 3k screen, 2x mSATA slots and is easily upgradable in a 13.3" chassis.

Not may people realise just how underpowered the U processors are for any real CPU intensive work. 4xxxU i7 processors are on a par with 2xxxx mobile processors.

You sacrafice ultrabook thinness and some battery life, but the return is a very powerful, cheap, upgradable laptop.

I don't understand why they put the FN on the left. Maybe it's because Ctrl+Shift isn't that common a gesture for the general population, but switching them in the BIOS is the first thing I do.

They could though, your subscription is tied to a viewing card, which should be tied to your address. They could use firmware on the box to generate a modified pint glass based on that. It'd be a fun game of cat and mouse.

Nothing, but that's the risk of crowdfunding. At least in this case it was someone quite well known in the community with some sort of track record (flattr). Projects fail, and to be honest, it was always a possibility here with his legal problems.

It'd probably be much easier to just blur the area of the image where they put it to be honest, I've seen this on streams before, they just blur the bottom corner where the number would show up.

Not really true, Ireland has a large concentration of 'tech giants'. They may be setting up because of tax regulations but they pretty much all have sizeable engineering workforces in Ireland. Google Ireland for example employs more than 2,500 people.

If you instead mean homegrown tech giants then you have a definite point. The only European giants I can think of are Telefonica, Vodafone, Deutsche Telekom, Nokia and SAP. It would be interesting to see the research on if the reason for that has much to do with the horrible work expectations in the US.

I disagree with you. The problem of autonomous vehicles is yes, a very difficult one, but steps are being taken towards it at a rapid rate. I work in the area, and parking and standard autonomous motorway driving, where the main required algorithms are lane departure, vehicle detection and adaptive cruise control are pretty much considered 'solved' in the research community.

I absolutely agree that there are plenty of aspects that are not solved, and possibly this is my passion for the domain shining through, but I would be much more optimistic for the future, and the near future at that.

I love mine too, but this makes me pause. If they were willing to do something like this in software, what's to say they wouldn't do something that you couldn't just flash away? Like an 'enhanced user experience' BIOS. or hardware component? You can't just reformat those.

The, it didn't effect me because I reformatted is kind of a "First they came for the communists..." argument.

It's extremely unlikely that the two are related. Account access attempts from Chinese IP addresses are common for almost everyone on Gmail.

Same. I love these giant ships, there's something just incredibly interesting about the technical challenge they solve.

I like small laptops and this is the bane of my life, there are so few powerful small laptops out there with good screen resolutions.

2012? They were notorious for that kind of slow down. Something to do with the chips they used.
