I happily used my Unicomps for more than 15 years. They're still fine but I got a Model F reproduction a couple of years ago. It's much more expensive but the feel is even better!

I'm pretty sure my 2017 Macbook Pro (Intel, no Touch Bar) doesn't have a Secure Enclave chip, yet it supports Passkeys.

You'd save the QR code at the time you first used it on the old phone, and not wait for when you needed to transfer it. For me, I'd usually be on the desktop when setting up 2FA an…

MythTV was the reason I bought and assembled my first x86 PC. I even bought a copy of Red Hat Linux 8 Personal (before Fedora) to run on it. That system became my main desktop PC a…

Unlike the CPUs, I think the AMD APUs that support ECC (the "Pro" versions) aren't available through normal retail channels.

I waited four years for a reproduction (from https://www.modelfkeyboards.com/ ) plus another year to complete the keycaps. Worth the wait. Expensive and it has an oddball layout, b…

I avoid reinstalls as well and one of my systems hasn't had a reinstall since Fedora Core 4. This system actually started on Red Hat Linux 8 (the precursor to Fedora, not RHEL). It…

Yeah, I've been using Gnus for more than 25 years, although I now use mbsync to download e-mail first. Before that, I used the original GNUS for Usenet and VM for e-mail.

A Bolt capped at 80% still has way more range than a Leaf and not much less range than a Leaf Plus.

Some TVs deliver features they've promised through updates. My 2018 Sony needed an update to support Dolby Vision. More recent models needed updates for HDMI 2.1 support. There are…

I switched from Dyn to Namecheap (who is the registrar for my family domain) for their free DNS service. No issues but we really only use it for e-mail.
