Just another app that thinks that a few registry tweaks will make all the difference, following the lead of all the other "Windows Optimizer" apps beforehand.

There's no unique value proposition here that I can see.

> Just build a JSON API! It's not that hard!

I agree that a JSON API is a better approach, but it's possible for AAA game developers to screw that up too: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2021/03/developers-to-update-...

There was also the Timex Datalink series of watches: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timex_Datalink

Likewise, the Save to Watch Later button is also missing from lite-youtube-embed, which is a feature I use a lot.

Yes, you can get to it by playing the video, but that defeats the point. I don't want to play the video, I don't want to wait for the video to load only to pause it and click the Save to Watch Later button.

One approach is to copy the data to a location that you control first (eg: RAM) and perform both the check and the use of that data from the trusted location. That can be difficult though on embedded devices with constrained resources.

In regard to the limitations of the command line syntax, Raymond Chen discussed this recently: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20240215-00/?p=10...

No, this one had a central Play/Pause button surrounded by a D-Pad ring for prev/next track and volume. No display though.

A number of the Gmail features are unique to the web app, not standard email filters so while Mail.app will get you the core features you'll still need the ability to run the web app from time to time (eg: updating mail filters)

I don't get why WebSession proposes to use authentication headers like WWW-Authenticate, when it calls out at the start that it's not a replacement for authentication protocols. If that's the case, surely it should just be using it's own headers to avoid confusion.

Not all PCs are on the internet or have access to time.microsoft.com

That researcher was Ian Carroll, who created a new "Stripe, Inc" company in Kentucky, a clone of the one registered in Delaware, and was therefore able to get an EV certificate issued for his new company that looked very similar to one issued for the Delaware company.

His original research site appears to no longer be online (https://stripe.ian.sh/), but you can read more about it in these articles:

That's why Asahi Linux has a custom installer. Amongst other tasks, it installs a stub macOS partition that contains known supported Apple firmware versions. See "Whats with all the disk space?" under the FAQ at https://asahilinux.org/2022/03/asahi-linux-alpha-release/

You might be thinking of GREASE for TLS: https://chromestatus.com/feature/6475903378915328

Even Google Calendar does this. If I'm adding an event an hour from now, why does the Location auto-complete list show locations that are impossible to reach in time at the top of the list? Is it not more likely that I would be booking an event near to my either my current location or my home?

You can turn it off on Netflix too: https://help.netflix.com/en/node/2102

They mentioned that the display output is currently using a framebuffer provided by the boot loader. I suspect when the DCP is initialized, the screen starts displaying a different framebuffer provided by the DCP, so if it was just used for brightness the screen would go blank.

I suspect you're missing the subjectAltName field from your certificate(s).

SemanticMerge is an existing commercial product that works in a similar fashion. I've found it much nicer to use than text-based diff tools.

I'm not sure if you've seen it, but there's a game called Rolling Line that works the same way, but with a virtual model railway.

> However, perhaps surprisingly, xxd is part of Vim (but not Neovim?), which is a rather heavyweight (and odd) dependency to require just to include a binary blob

Daniel Estévez (https://destevez.net/) has lots of interesting blog posts on using tools like GNU Radio and Jupiter to decode transmissions from various objects in space. He's recently also been looking at LTE.

I would also recommend CuriousMarc who has done a lot of work with his friends on restoring some radio equipment from the Apollo missions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v49ucdZcx9s&list=PL-_93BVApb... There are lots of good explanations of the how and why in those videos.

> when normal communication systems are not available.

I think that would be the key point to the exemption. He likely could have contacted the fire service by telephone or other "normal communication systems".

You should probably be asking Intel to lobby for the inclusion of the drivers in Windows, as those drivers will be Intel's IP not Microsoft's.

There are alternative solutions available for those that don't like the Tailscale authentication model, including using Wireguard directly.

Tailscale does not need to be all things to all people, and especially not at the free tier for personal use. Adding extra complexity to the product would mean that it would no longer be the easy to use tool that it currently is.

.Net source generators can't modify existing code, they can only add additional code files, so your first example wouldn't be able to be rewritten by the source generator.

You can read the development discussion and syntax reasoning in the GitHub issue: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/44676

It's not a good idea to have the decision making happening on the outside of the door you want to protect. Ideally, the outside component should just be the antenna and the microcontroller should be on the inside of the door.

As they demonstrate in the video, you can open their example case with a screwdriver, so then you could either short some connections to release the door lock (if it's self-contained), or connect to the ESP to grab a copy of its firmware and configuration to connect directly back to whatever controller it talks to over wifi (if it's part of a larger system).

Hacking doesn't just refer to security vulnerabilities and unauthorized access.

"A hacker is a person skilled in information technology who uses their technical knowledge to achieve a goal or overcome an obstacle, within a computerized system by non-standard means."
