So I've no clue how all this recompiling works, but why does the result of this process still need hardware that is at least two decades newer in order to run?

I dont think it's that flawless. DVDs introduced some anti-consumer features to limit what you are allowed to do with your media that are now widespread, like copy-protection/drm/hdcp limiting your choice of playback devices and preventing you from creating backups, or enforced market segmentation through region-codes. Every VHS was rewritable, only special DVD were.

It's not like the preceding generations were any different, until they had to do work on a PC.

No, the regulation requires that the system can be turned off or just the warnings; however the manufacturer wants to do it.

> 3.1.2. It shall be possible for the driver to manually deactivate either the ADDW warning or the ADDW system, depending on which of the two possibilities (or both) the vehicle manufacturer chose to make possible.

The full text of the regulation is linked at the bottom of the article.

With the storage cost crisis which will make future phone more expensive I'm sure a lot of people will wish they could prolong the lifetime of theri current device with a battery swap.

With the replaceable batteries the people at least have a choice. Without the option for a battery swap you had to buy a new device and throw away a otherwise totally fine one.

Yes, please. It's a shame that privacy as a feature so often comes with a hefty price tag.

There's https://github.com/afwbkbc/glsmac but that still has a lot of work to be put into.

Afaik, at least Fedora has the privacy extensions disabled by default.

The 20 dollar minicomputer has not become the 200 dollar rgb keyboard. You can still get a ~20 dollar Raspberry Pi minicomputer that runs Linux and has low power consumption: The Pi Zero 2. They expanded their range of products on the top, both performance and price wise, but boards on the other end of the range are still on offer.

And game consoles, home computers or VCRs provided ample opportunities to experience this during setup when using the RF connector. Also, the successful 1982 Poltergeist movie had some very prominent scenes involving TV static.

Neat, but England is wrong. The area highlighted when clicking is the United Kingdom.

Neat. The printer bit made me roll my eyes, though. They could not get a printer work with the desktop OS that is Windows, and after also unsuccessfully attempting to get it to work on the OS of a _hand-held_ _gaming_ device, which they just showcased as a PC-based alternative to a living room console, their conclusion is "needs some work"? I, mean what? Would anybody expect to be able to print from a PlayStation or a Switch? What would you even want to print?

> When you create perverse incentives you attract systematic cheaters. We literally conducted this experiment in Germany. Now the government is trying to roll out a restricted benefits card instead of giving out cash, because people come from overseas just to get on the benefits system and send the cash back home.

Is this anything more than a right-wing talking point? There is no proof that this is actually happening in any meaningful scale.

Does it still work when I take a photo of the screen with a camera?

The board is powered via USB-C PD at 12V, so it might as well have a 12V rail.

But with a SATA connector they probably would have to account for power hungry devices with spinning disks, which feels a bit antithetic to having a power efficient processor.

I changed the original title from "No, Autism Is Not Caused By The Gut Microbiome", because neither to article nor the study it criticizes are about what causes autism, but about a potential technique to diagnose it.

Here's a photo of the vault as it was about to be sealed in October last year: https://www.nasa.gov/missions/europa-clipper/how-nasa-is-pro...

In the meantime NASA built a whole spacecraft around it and the craft went through numerous tests. If they'd have to undo and redo all of that, they may even miss the 2025 backup launch date. I'm sure NASA is very eager to seek other ways to deal with this problem.

Other articles[1][2] mention that the transistors came from International Rectifier which was bought by Infineon ten years ago. Maybe Infineon wasn't aware because NASA acquired the transistors through their IR subsidiary. IR provided transistors for the JWST and even for Hubble[3], so they probably were NASAs go-to supplier for this kind of hardware.

On the other hand, wouldn't people that (quite literally) live on the street have a better situational awareness regarding their urban surroundings, opposed to other pedestrians?

Why submit this outdated article?

> So essentially everyone who isn't very into law and order type politics and cares about civil rights is against this, regardless of where they are on the political spectrum.

That does not apply to the afd.

Germany has a very well established electronic cash system in the form of Girocard because the overwhelming majority has a Girokonto and thus no need for a separate payment method. So why should any business in Germany go through the trouble to offer additional payment options for the extremely few cases where a customer cannot pay via Girocard or with cash? If you are frustrated that you cannot use your card you should blame whoever issued it to you. It's their responsibility to convince businesses to offer their payment method.

Also a lot of the IR spectrum is absorbed by water, so it wouldn't pass through the eyeball.

There's also https://www.gog.com/game/sublevel_zero / https://store.steampowered.com/app/327880/Sublevel_Zero_Redu... which initially was a game jam entry I believe. Very much an homage to Descent, but with rogue-like elements and randomized levels.

Wired USB-C earbuds exist.

Imo, it's very much dependent on the intensity. I don't smoke it myself and consider a slight whiff of it quite pleasant, but I wouldn't tolerate someone smoking in my living quarters.
