Depends, every tech company I've worked at has had Windows machines for project managers, account managers etc, and Mac for developers and designers. So it is possible to support two OSs as standard. I've always just picked the Mac but when my next laptop is due I may ask if anyone uses Linux

As time goes on you'll be exposed to more and more security vulnerabilities with no patches.

Nothing wrong with running an old phone but you should unlock it and put Lineage OS on or similar.

Authy is trash anyway.

Ah, my girlfriend's approach. No matter how much I show her a pwned password or set her up on my Vaultwarden, she's not interested

Then they enforce the chipmakers to put backdoors in the chips themselves

Google absolutely update most roads every year or so. Busy roads multiple times a year. Even my cul de sac in a minor town has photos every 5 years

Wonder if this can be used to power ZigBee smart sensors. My current battery ones last about 2 years on a coin cell

Works fine on an 11th Gen i5. Not fast but not slow

Crazy. There are already millions of Bitcoin wallet apps for small amounts and quick transfers. And anyone smart is storing significant amounts on hardware wallets.

Release the Linux Drive app please

As a web dev we do try to accommodate userCSS for accessibility reasons but often font sizes are tuned to what they are for a reason. I'd guess there's a line height issue here.

I had a 2023 hire VW Caddy while mine was getting repaired and it had real buttons on the steering wheel thankfully. The climate control was all on a touchscreen though which was awful. At least they had a button next to the wheel that would set it to demist the windscreen (change the blowers, heat and fan to Max) so you could do that without crashing.

Was so glad to get mine back with actual controls.

There are some data centres in the UK that use the waste heat to heat the local swimming pool. Seems a good idea, we need compute and we need heat, why not do both at once?

Surely it's not too much of a stretch to have datacentres contributing to local district heating systems either?
