    THAT WAS MY PROBLEM?

    Snipping Tool used to have this "feature" whereby any drawing performed on a screenshot would be animated as an overlay (this was only visible in the UWP Photos app at the time). F…

    Still waiting for FIDO2 support on macOS, unfortunately.

    Funnily enough, I actually had issues with Coinbase today as well. All of a sudden they wanted to block me from using cards (no idea why, I've been a customer for at least two year…

    What I never end up understanding about such topics is what is truly meant by "understanding" [that we have finite lives]. Don't we all know that anyways? Are we being asked to cal…

    Just a thought, but what if all citizens over the age of 18 could use TOTP [with a randomly-assigned secret] to verify their age. If they don't have a mobile device, they could pur…

    I'd give the MSI Creator Z16 a look. Albeit, battery life is not amazing on [most] x86 platforms (compared to ARM platforms) though it should last notably longer on Linux.

    Whilst I agree people should at least have a ".com" backup domain (at least for email use), many services are supporting the less common TLDs nowadays. In particular, ".dev" seems …

    That reminds me, I recently registered to Experian only to find out ".dev" emails are considered invalid. I had to register an email on one of my ".com" domains then forward over t…

    This isn't going to be just Lenovo. Microsoft requires that the certificate in question is not part of the Secure Boot database for any device meeting/utilising the "Device Guard" …

    There's SafeSearch for that, which can be enforced at the DNS level.

    I never got round to PR'ing this (maybe I still will) but it would be great if Howdy had a feature where it could be "skipped" until the user is logged in. That would allow people …

    MSI Creator Z16[P] You should be able to disable the dGPU if you have no need for it, within the BIOS, to improve battery life. As for why I recommend it? 1) It has a thin, MacBook…

    That doesn't work here. DNS over HTTPS (DoH) uses port 443, which you probably don't want to forward to your local resolver.

    Pfft. Start Menu ads are for losers. You should advertise with File Explorer [1] to get to more people. [1] : https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/microsoft-is...

    I wonder if this was really "Anonymous" (with regards to who runs the Twitter page) or a collective effort with non-affiliated individuals. Ukraine has listed websites they asked "…

    I should've been a little clearer; by "enterprise systems" I was referring to RAID controllers and the like. Though yes, I believe enterprise SSDs/NVMes likely have a capacitor or,…

    That's the first time I've heard of batteries [for RAID controllers] having an entirely separate port than that which hooks them up to the controller. Is this a "there are some of …

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I wouldn't call the management engine (eg. HP iLO) the BIOS. Whilst those may support such warnings: 1) Not everyone wants to use iLO or whatever equiv…

    The funny thing here is that battery-backed enterprise systems are worse off in that manner, because you're much more likely to notice a dying battery that your entire device relie…
