Apps need to adhere to some new conditions to contribute items to the Win 11 context menu. The 7-zip creator has been unable or unwilling to make these changes[1]. There are other open source projects which do display…
Not paying full price is not a "lost sale". People unwilling to pay full price wait for a discount or price reduction. Look at how popular the seasonal Steam sales are. Pirating the game very likely means they never…
Isn't that exactly what companies use as justification for DMCA and DRM protection? Without those, you'd have sites full of pirated game downloads easily found through search engines. DMCA takedowns force those sites…
They might spend $600 on 10 of those games, though. It's not all-or-nothing.
If you're running a media server (like Plex or Jellyfin) you can do hardware accelerated transcoding on the GPU.
There was a long period (15-20 years) where LCDs were quite a downgrade from CRTs. Poor contrast ratio (gray blacks), backlight bleed, low resolution, poor color gamut (they're still putting 45% NTSC screens in budget…
Might depend on location but I've always had Express packages delivered by a dedicated Express truck. Which feels wasteful sometimes when both a Ground and Express truck come down my street within the same hour.
Good point. I should have clarified that I'm referring specifically to PayPal in the US, which themselves state that "PayPal is not a bank, does not take deposits and is not FDIC insured".…
Fair enough, maybe "outsourced" would be a better way to put it. Basically they want support to cost them as little as possible and do not particularly care whether it actually offers any useful help to customers. More…
Holding money (or crypto) in PayPal is a terrible idea. They are not a bank, they do not abide by banking regulations. They can lock you out of your account and your money at any time and leave you going in circles with…

For a limited set of DoH providers. It does not let you enter a custom DoH URL, only a DoT hostname.
The governor is a Democrat, though. I imagine this is punishment/retribution similar to cutting Maine's federal school funding after its Democrat governor publicly confronted Trump.
This is about sunsetting the WHOIS protocol in favor of RDAP, not doing away with domain owner registration data.
Also false, you can build a custom configuration of the gen12 with the 165U cpu and 64 GB of ram.
120Hz on Snapdragon/Mediatek Android phones works great with little impact to battery life. Pixels are hobbled by the poor power efficiency of their Tensor chips.
Check out the Auto Tab Discard extension for Firefox. It removes the contents of tabs from memory after a period of time, but keeps the tab icon/title around. Next time you click the tab, it acts like a bookmark and…
OP was suggesting an outright block of traffic from ad providers. I don't believe any US ISPs have gone to that extreme, at least not yet. They allowed peering points to become congested which affected Netflix traffic,…
That sets a terrible precedent. You do not want ISPs picking and choosing what content to deliver, or forcing content providers to pay extra to deliver content to their customers.
I don't usually snoop around other people's bedrooms when visiting.
Thanks to DFS restrictions in the US, there are effectively only two 80 MHz channels that can reliably be used in the 5GHz band. 2.4GHz only has three non-overlapping 20MHz channels, and those can only do ~286 Mbps…
I think you're underestimating how important the out-of-the-box experience is to casual users. Having Steam games "just work" and being able to do the familiar double-click of an exe file to install a Windows app in…
Aren't Chrome tabs supposed to be isolated processes? That seems like quite the vulnerability if it can crash the entire browser.
None of that is required to compromise SMS. A SIM swap is much easier to accomplish because the cellular carriers have historically had woefully insecure policies and their support agents could easily be socially…
