It might be worth to switch to GrapheneOS if you have Pixel phones: https://grapheneos.org/ It is a more serious project than LineageOS in the sense that they take security very seriously and they take their development…
Not to mention that they keep investing in things that people don't necessarily care about (like the crypto currency embedded in the app). It is kind of beyond me why people would submit to monthly donations to a…
I don't understand these kind of posts. Can't people just use a regular smartphone phone and _not_ install Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.?
There was a point in time (10 to 15 years ago) in which HN was actually a good forum to check out, you could learn a lot from the discussions here. But then it grew massively. Nowadays, it is no better than classic…
At this point, we are talking about a really high education of a certain language on a thread about a tool to help people going from zero to say basic sentences on another language. They are two different things. I…
A 16 month course of 6 to 7 hours per day with a lot of exercise and you didn't learn the language at all? I don't think Duolingo is a good solution but in your case you had all the opportunity to become fully fluent…
Absolutely, there has been a dramatic shift in the type of people who visit HN in the past years. I used to think that Reddit was bad in this regard but to be honest it mostly affects the big subreddits, the niche and…
I know this is completely unrelated to the discussion but why is this not a blog post on their actual blog (https://en.cdprojektred.com/news/) instead of a print screen of a bunch of text?
But this doesn't grant remote access to your system, and it's not like Microsoft will start shipping replacements of core packages over this repo.
This feels like a huge overreaction. "(...) every time an install of Raspberry Pi OS is updated it will ping a Microsoft server. Microsoft will know you're using Raspberry Pi OS/likely Raspberry Pi owner and your IP…
The upvoted answer didn't really answer the OP. I get that level 3 means that the device is able to detect physical tampering. But why would I need this if anyone can just plug the USB stick into any PC?
The amount of FUD that goes on HN related to hardware never ceases to amaze me. Sometimes I find myself double checking if I am really on HN and not on Facebook.
This is slightly disappointing, I was expecting it to be some kind of case for the the Compute Module (or at least for the RPi4. I don't know if it's unrealistic, but it would be nice to have some sort of upgrade or…
Not to mention it is terrible for searching.
Honestly, I wouldn't trust the numbers reported by the Portugal, in particular the reported number of daily COVID-19 deaths, I feel the numbers are being misreported. I have been closely following the progress of the…
DDG results are okay until you need to look up something non computer science related, like results for your local country.

I know that people will frown at this for being Chinese but I really recommend Seafile: - https://www.seafile.com/en/home/ It's pretty much an open-source version of Dropbox. It works incredibly well, you can host it…
I have the same problem, DDG seems to be sufficient but only for a niche of search results: mostly related to technology or technical searches or searches related to the US/websites in English. As soon as you try to…

Seafile is a wonderful Dropbox replacement: - https://www.seafile.com/en/home/ Open-source and all. :)
The Tesla batteries installed in South Australia are not used for keeping the city running just with solar, they are there to optimize the load and routing of energy through the entire region, to avoid outages when…
It's kind of ridiculous that Google is very active in shutting down legitimate apps like KDE Connect but paid clones of open source apps, or apps that promise to upgrade Android the version [1], are still happily up for…
Why are people so attached to XMPP? There was no entity preventing XMPP from thriving, if the community really wanted XMPP, we would have had XMPP everywhere. But honestly, as someone who ran and tried to use XMPP for…
But hosting full games is a different story than hosting apps. Not to mention that Steam offers more features, such as cloud saves and an entire social network.
