It’s lile 5 years and I still have not seen one good use case for blockchain except cryptocurrencies.

Ryzen 2000 and 3000 are still fairly recent and were announced 5-6 years ago.

Oh, Microsoft Active Directory does this, when you log in via a method that doesn’t allow changing the passwords (e.g. VPN login over RADIUS).

Absolutely true from a technical perspective. But if you’re shopping for used devices, the price difference can be quite relevant. I’ve seen 7th gen PCs at ~100€, while 8th gen PCs are sold for littpe under 200€.

I bought such an old computer. 6th gen i3 Intel CPU, upgraded the memory to 16G and added more storage. For me, it works well.

However, I recommend checking the power usage of the system. Some older PCs might be very piwer hungry, which makes them expensive in the long run.

Edit: 6th gen and 7th gen Intel CPUs are not compatible with windows 11. The market is full of these old PCs and they are cheam. I personally would not buy anything older.

That’s true for AMD/Intel comparisons. It doesn’t really matter when comparing one vendor.

But you’re right, it is not really trustworthy

I’d rather have a great documentation than five different blog posts, where some of them might be outdated, wrong or insecure (and you only find out later).

But yes, they are helpful and easily available for popular software.

At least for me, I’ve solved quite a lot of problems on my way home from work.

That’s a truely unusual way. Why not set it up on a raspberry pi?

Ok, makes sense

Why not? There are some popular examples, like mysql --> mariadb or elasticsearch --> opensearch

Sure. But you could also just not turn off the mail server for a start ;)

I just hope they don’t destroy this beautiful product.

For me, the license stuff is odd. They offer a license model with two tiers (user / server), yet the license seems to do nothing (except showing a little badge). Also, it is a one time payment which will likely not be substantial in the future.

Why not create a “supporter” tier for maybe $2 per month or so, this would bring some recurring income without the fears of paywalling the product.

Correct. But at least for me, even the low risk of some e-mails getting lost is pretty substantial.

Some things to consider:

• It is typical for mail servers to retry a couple of times for maybe a day or two. The exact values can differ a lot.
• After this time, the message bounces and the sender (sometimes) gets notified.
• This bounce might get your address removed from newsletters.

I just tried this exact prompt with bing image creator.

The result looks like my first tries with photoshop:

Isn’t this something like 10 years old? If not, what has changed now?

Edit: German technews website heise says that libreoffice for android was released in 2015.

Whenever YouTube changes something, newpipe adapts to it within one or two days. Thanks to the devs!
