It depends on the building use. In residential buildings, people do tend to go to / from ground but in my building the parking garage has entrances on levels 1-4, the gym on 3-4 an…

I have been using the feature for ages, and it really does work, but it is by no means 'hidden'. It's just an iOS feature.

Yes I use an Elgato deck with my Mac but this specific tool showed as Windows-only when I tried to install it.

That's my experience too. I mostly don't pick up calls from numbers that I don't recognize. On the very rare occasion that I am expecting such a call, I always stay silent after pi…

Yuk. Windows only and closed source. Pass.

There was a window between the early 2000s and the late 2010s when self-hosted telephony made sense. But these days, there are so many cheap commercial services that it is almost i…

I don't believe Namecheap ever did that, unless that was in the distant past. Never had a problem with them.

Wasn't there a recent discussion here, where it was pointed out that leap seconds are about to be phased out in less than 10 years' time? I would be extremely surprised if a negati…

Anything can happen of course, but my actuarial life expectancy is at least 30 years from now. I am 95% certain that my safe deposit box in my bank (where my info is currently stor…

It is not a disaster. It is a part of carefully orchestrated attack on Western democracies by enemy states.

0db is usually defined as the loudest sound that the audio system can produce. Hence, everything else must be negative.

Same here. I work with a lot of startups, some of them very prominent and none of them are listed.

I was watching the video the other day, and my jaw dropped. Wenting is a display-technology beast. Watch his other videos too; he seems to be able to squeeze every last bit of poss…

This story falls in the completely false camp. What restaurant can afford an entire reservations team? Why did they feel the need to do anything regarding reservations if they were…

That is an utterly meaningless statistic. Canada, with four times the population, ranks #233, because most of the country is uninhabited / uninhabitable.

Neat, but this feels to me like buying a single-use kitchen gadget. Yes, the console does not have everything neatly together like this, but it can manage everything across all AWS…

We used landlines of course, and it was an utter pain in the behind. There was no way of letting anyone know that you were running late once they were already underway to pick you …

Please leave the fat shaming for Reddit. And if you are going to do it anyway, at least make sure your facts are correct. Lots of thin people suffer form sleep apnea.

CPAP reduces my AHI from 55-60 down to less than 0.5. For people with severe sleep apnea, an 'improvement' of 4 events per hour does absolutely nothing for their health and provide…

Yes! It is a shame that this kind of nonsense gets upvoted. Pure snake oil.

The dot-com era called. They want ClearCase back.

Call me cynical, but pretty much 100% if the time when there is an article about "teen accomplishes almost impossible scientific feat" or "group of teens design world-saving produc…

Another allrounder and close cousin in time and but with much more functionality is the 4046 CMOS Phase Locked Loop. It can be configured as a versatile oscillator like the 555, bu…

A Mercedes Benz 770K would have been even more appropriate.

I used to think that working from home was the best thing since sliced bread, when I got to stop going to the office due to COVID. But during the five years that I worked from home…
