Yeah, I remember when Chrome was first released, I was already on Firefox, and I downloaded and tried Chrome…

I absolutely hated the UI, and kept on using Firefox.

Over the years, I have seen many articles about how Chrome is better because it is faster, I never had an issue with Firefox, so I kept using it.

The only time I swiched from Firefox since version 1.0 was when they launched the Australis redesign as it made it look like a boring chrome copy.

I swiched to Pale Moon, a Fitefox fork which kept the old UI, then when they released the Quantum redesign, I switched back.

Since the scammers spoofed the ID numbers of real phones, it is quite possible that real customers wilö be affected bu this, so I wonder what will happen if a real customer who has issues with their real phone that had it’s ID stolen and needs help…

Ah, nice, I did not know that!

Thank you for sharing the video, cool!

That being said, it is one failsafe, for normal drones, but after looking further at the image of the Toyota concept, I can sort of see what you mean, as it is a different construction to that of a normal drone.

Sigh, with regards to drones, they use the torque from the motor to steer, they are also very finely balanced, so a motor dying in flight will make it fall from the sky.

Now, this is clearly different from this device as it has (small) wings and the engines in the picture are all pointing diagonally in the same way, meaning that some lift is generated by the wings.

It might be enough to land in an emergency if an engine quits.

But a normal quad or even a hexa drone will just crash or start spinning if one engine quits.

But I am man enough to be swayed by evidence, so show me a drone with one engine quitting mid flight that doesn’t just crash.

Following your logic, a motorcycle is more safe than a car, because it has only 2 wheels

What?

That isn’t my logic at all.

I simply stated that six enginges in this configuration does not mean that is is failsafe.

Lol, if one enginge fails, it needs to compensate for not only the lack of lift, but also the loss of tourqe for steering.

So no, you don’t have six failsafes, you have 6 possible points of failure

Soooooo…

The price of computer memory is likely to crash?

Ok, I mean, I won’t be pissed if it happens…

Nah, I host it on a web hotel.

I am using a very generic ISP and they tend to have a dim view of running servers on their network.

I did have an RPi running SSH and a Mumble server directly connected to the internet years ago, but after a few years I realized that I was bringing needless attention to my network when I found my server on Shodan.

So I took it down…

Slight correction, internet connected devices without an open firmware are a misstake.

Yeah, see!

An RTG could power my phone!

Sigh, let me spell my point out for you…

What I mean is that I can absolutely believe that a solid state battery could power the next gen smart watch, I doubt it will.

Just as an RTG could power my phone, but I doubt that it will be powered by it.

If the mars rovers can function on a fraction of a watt, then I don’t know why my phone can’t…

This is kinda like saying that a radio thermal generator could power next gen’s phones.

I am sure it could, that doesn’t mean that it will.

So they are using the information they have in Azure/Entra about where you login from and presenting it to other users through Outlook/Teams?

Seems fine as long as they don’t include your exact address.

I am a big fan of Ducky, and I’d recommend you to look at their popular One 3, or Shine series.

I have not used a Shine in many years, but I am daily driving the One 2 series, the One 3 has replacable switches, RGB and a good design.

As for what switch you should get…

MX Brown are tactile, so no deliberate click, but just about any mechanical keyboard will make some noise depending on how you type.

With replacable switches you can get other switches if you find the default not to be to your liking.

Eh, I get what you mean but I disagree.

That is sort of saying that if someone want to learn Swedish, but since they don’t know any Swedish, it is better to start them on Norweigan first.

If UFW had used a similar syntax to that of iptables, then it would be a decent way of doing it, but in this example I disagree with you

I just hate the comic style that is used in presentations like this, it is just too cutsey, and I can’t take it seriously

UFW

This is just my personal computer and I’m a newbie to configure firewalls

Leave it alone.

If you want to experiment, set up a VM and experiment there.

Also, if you want to learn about Linux firewalls, go for iptables instead. UFW is easier, yes, but you won’t get the standard way of configuring a Linux firewall, though to be honest, unless you are directly connecting the computer to the internet, you probably won’t need to bother.

And if you are working in an environment where you are dealing with a segmented network with limited access between segments, they will probably already use a separate firewall that is easier to manage centrally than induvidual firewalls running on individual computers

I am an IT technician working in Microsoft 365 / Azure, Microsoft makes changes so often that their own documentation hasn’t even been updated with the proper new name of the product in the product’s own documentation, oh and the name change took place several months if not a year ago.

I feel like I belong to one of the last generations that had to figure stuff out on our own when it came to computers back when I was a kid.

I was born in 87, my first computer ran Windows 3.11, I remember installing Windows 95 from floppy disks.

The whole “it just works” part of tech is both fantastic and horrible, fantastic in that it works, horrible in that when it doesn’t you get way fewer tools to work with.
