OP mixed up accuracy and resolution.
If this is confirmed, it looks like no *signed* app or installer distributed outside the Microsoft Store gets instant SmartScreen reputation anymore. This effectively kills the entire EV code‑signing certificate value proposition. Over the past few weeks, we've been seeing inconsistent SmartScreen warnings for our apps that previously had stable reputation via Azure Artifact Signing certificates. Nothing changed on our side. This would also neatly explain why Microsoft support has been oddly silent and unhelpful on our tickets. If instant reputation is now Store‑only, that’s a pretty major platform shift that doesn't seem to have been clearly communicated.

RF is basically black magic but I believe it’s the harmonics of lower frequencies that are in GHz range (and very noisy and weak)

Thank you for this beautiful language construct: sentence as verb.

One example is Ulam spiral: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulam_spiral
They mixed up Garching with Jülich.
It's like using flash when photographing, with these ultra short pulses one could see how electrons move inside atoms and molecules.

L’Huillier, who became the fifth woman to win the physics prize, was teaching when she received the call from the committee, having the advantage of being in the same time zone as the committee.

(On a side note, Bing chat already knows now that she won the prize. Color me impressed.)

There is also Piwigo which is open-source and can be self hosted.

I had the same reaction upon learning that curl can talk LDAP.
