Cool! Didn’t know that one, thanks!

I really like the Dymaxion projection.

Yeah, the choosing when to see them is the most difficult part. I don’t see that happening in the near future.

So basically all ads… I agree

The thing is that USB type C is only about the physical plug/socket, and the USB standard and version that uses it is a separate thing.
In this case it’s probably a PD only charger and the device only supports plain old 5v 500mA USB power

I really really like my Garmin Instinct 2. It a kind of hybrid but between old digital clock and smartwatch, instead of analog.
It has strong Casio Pro Trek vibes. One color, no touch LCD screen. Solar charging, more than 3 weeks battery life, GPS, all health sensors and smart stuff.

I think you are referring to GNU Taler.

It recently started operating in a kind of open beta in Switzerland https://news.itsfoss.com/gnu-taler-swiss-operations/

Unless I missed that feature, no, you only have one version.
But it creates a link to archive.org so you can see if there’s older versions there.

You have two things, the application and the libraries.
The libraries are files with the data you want to host (wikipedia, stack overflow, etc).
There’s a lot of applications for different platforms. Some allow to download the libraries directly, otherwise you can download them manually into a folder and tell the app where to find them.

Yes! It saves it as HTML, readable HTML, PDF and image.
Results can vary a lot depending on how the page is implemented. Sometimes most of the formats are empty or broken, but I always got at least one that’s usable.

The official website has a lot of good resources. You can burn the firmware into the devices directly from there.

I have Kiwix (offline versions of Wikipedia and other online resources) and Linkwarden (preserve specific websites in multiple formats) running on my home server.

I think BLE is only required for the initial compromise (extracting the pairing key). After that the attack can be performed over classic BT, and can impersonate either part (headphones or phone) to the other.
It’s still very targeted and sophisticated, so no reason to panic unless you have reasons to think someone with the resources could target you.
Regarding the attacks, they go way beyond eavesdropping calls, since BT headphones usually have access to contacts and smart assistants, that you can use to extract a lot more information

Every frickin day… at least once, I read a post’s title and start looking around for clues that it’s not real… My mind goes: “is it the onion? Is it April’s fools again already? This can’t be true…”

They also want billionaires to know that is a bad idea to turn against them.

This is the way… You can build one with an ESP dev board and a couple of components. M5 stack has a couple of different ones that already come with IR and the firmware is pretty easy to download and install.

I’ve seen them in Germany, but between relatively small cities and towns.
Not Just Bikes made a video about Trams not long ago.

In some countries, you need to declare expensive items when you are leaving the country, otherwise you pay the tariff when you return.

2005

I knew a guy from the US that was also interviewed by some 3 letter agency because his girlfriend was Russian. This was like 20 years ago.
