I find it quite surprising that Danish high school students (the article isn't about university) apparently did write digital exams with internet access until now, so basically ope…

The analogy is a bit shaky IMO, as you can certify individual, heavily modified, foreign or even self-built cars in EU member states. For cars, the local certification authority th…

You cannot prove the absence of e.g. a Veracrypt hidden volume or similar, though. Even if you honestly give up your key, you could still be either A) held in contempt of court, if…

Because what is the alternative, with the same level of convenience and support by (online) shops? Genuine question, because I do not know any and would be happy to. Wero is not su…

The problem in Munich is that everything must go through a single two-track part underneath the city center, which is at absolute capacity. If anything breaks down there (and it do…

I think they mean the actual posts on tea itself, not the leaked ID photos.

The "poisoning the data supply" angle seems to be a common motive, similar to tools like nightshade[1] (for actual images and not just garbage data). [1] https://nightshade.cs.uchi…

IMO "not ideal" is still a euphemism. Even if you do this, often throwing away decades of branding, there is a high chance that Lieferando aka Just Eat Takeaway.com will still not …

Right, fair enough :D

IMO, Framework fits. It's very repairable, and it's kinda easy to do. Not having to work with clips of any kind is great, it's all screws and magnets. At least the 13" one has the …

The US Air Force bombed a local underground fuel storage facility, one of the biggest in Germany at the time, with quite a lot of heavy bombers in April 1945 with mixed success - o…

It is way more democracy and freedom than living in a state with an entity like the Stasi, a mixture between the NSA and the Gestapo, which is used to curb any opposition, at least…

Until they need new hardware, for which there will (and can) be no drivers anymore, as Microsoft stops crosssigning them in the Hardware Dev Center after a while for old Windows ve…
