"this will force the average user to upgrade their phones" A lot of phones don't receive any upgrades after 1 or 2 years... I wish that Google would have forced vendors to implemen…

2 questions : * How can it can do 2-side printing ? (on a normal printer, you may print all the odd pages, turn the whole thing, and print all the even pages) * Won't the cutter ex…

You might want to bring a 100 $ old Lenovo such as x200 (ideally with Libreboot, to justify youself) Or you may go further and bring a 30 $ used/old laptop with 1G ram and a stippe…

Can anyone explain me what went wrong with http://www.cacert.org/ and why they are not supported by any major browser ?

The algorithm/method of vote determines a large part of the political landscape (and in the US, only 2 significant political parties can realistically exist. People have to choose …

You can connect to 4G with your root-enabled Linux PC and a USB dongle or minipci module. Carriers don't care about your application processor, they only care about the baseband. I…

IMO code generated by AI (which was trained on a lot of copyleft codebases) ought to be systematically on an open-source copyleft license.

It's not only the issue of SoC modems but about the whole integration (RFIC, LNA/PA, RF switches, antennas...). The more bands you integrate, the more difficult it becomes (or with…

I am not native english so maybe it's just me, but I think the title is misleading because it suggests that Debian could be struggling with a situation where developers would massi…

720p is OK for me and I also almost don't notice. 480p is really noticeable (and totally unacceptable when you pay for a subscription...).

> All major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Brave) have native Linux builds. Full support. No compromises. Full support ? I thought that the DRM were not the same (e.g. Disney+ an…

That's great ! FWIW I generated a small web app (I am just starting to experiment with Claude and Devstral and that seemed a good exercise :), and put it online in case it would be…

Possibly, but I don't see why those people would buy a new MacBook rather than a used 100$ laptop (which would be both better for their finances but also for the planet...)

I have happily used nanokvm ( https://wiki.sipeed.com/hardware/en/kvm/NanoKVM_Pro/introduc... ). (N.b. unfortunately the ATX board cannot be ordered independently, so be sure to or…
