    Use sidecar files instead. I believe the professional tools all use them as well.

    I think it was 3.3x where things started working. I don't recall 4.x being around much. I do remember 5 and 6. For some reason 4 never made a splash in my circle of friends.

    In my market you can’t plug into the ONT because it still requires authentication. The modem the ISP provides has hard coded settings to limit connection counts as well as rate lim…

    I don't think I've ever seen so many positive comments. It must be Christmas. What really amazed me was the Command-Tab icon. My brain registers what it is faster than all the othe…

    IT can screen capture you computer without you knowing so this isn't new. Furthermore they can also see what application is in the foreground and OCR the captured image for more in…

    A few years back CA had serious wild fire issues. PG&E was just the scapegoat. There are multiple factors but the main issue is that it's nearly impossible to get the environmental…

    I bet it was a fun project, but in reality backups using rsync vs restic, borg, etc., are very inefficient in speed, performance, storage, and likely other ways. After discovering …

    I worked with a friend competing for a 0.5M prize to build a robot to collect material on the moon. The project was sponsored by NASA. After that experience, I would be hesitant to…

    Will you be able to make computer network diagrams? None of the existing open source programs are very useful for this mostly because you can’t put text at the beginning, middle, a…

    It does seem like a great solution but we've shied away from it because the price. For an enterprise you need the business license. Something like OpenVPN Cloud I think is 1/3 the …

    I think the thing we need to watch out for is using LoraWan in devices. It's basically a free low bandwidth network. Amazon has already included a gateway in some of their devices.…

    One of the best air filters is your furnace + good air filter. No need for additional products. But if you go with a Merv 14 filter (which is amazing by the way), you will spend so…
