He is stuck in Moravia right now. Don’t worry, he can handle the flood just fine, it’s just that the singular cell tower in the region no longer has power.
Trojan is any malware that pretends to be a legit program. It does not need to have backdoor or info stealing capability even though most malware (trojan or not) today does. For example, pre-Internet trojans might just invisibly install themselves along the actual program they were bundled with and then nuke the system on a certain date. Antivirus companies would even advance the date on their systems in hopes of detecting these and being the first to develop a patch.
But since this program is not malicious, it just straight up hogs system resources and/or crashes it due to a mistake, it cannot be considered malware and therefore not a trojan.
Certain Intel processors from around 2000 would crash everything when loading the 4 bytes F0 0F C7 C8
into a specific register. Would you consider this a backdoor because it allows any program to crash the system? I wouldn’t say so, crashing Windows 98 was probably not too hard anyway…
I installed FakeStore and set the app’s installed_by
* property from Package Manager to FakeStore (com.android.vending
, the same as Google Play Store), which was enough to fool the public transport app I’m using. Is this the workaround you’re talking about, or does it require MicroG too?
* Not what it’s actually called, can’t remember that
It’s the apps that prevent themselves being sideloaded. Presumably, their devs will enact similar policy on EU iOS too.
Well, then you’re going to hear
most of the time, much like Spotify.
(Last time I was in a Spotify-“enhanced” waiting room was 6 years ago so no idea if that still holds.)
The Ion launcher for TI-83 calculators has existed since 1999. Why did the Android port take so long? /s
Input devices almost never use USB 3.0. In fact, most manufacturers save money and don’t shield the cable, forcing half-speed USB 1.1, which is enough for all mice and keyboards - less than 50 kb/s of the available 6 Mb/s is required even for 240Hz polling. High-end mice might have USB 3.0 (9 pins instead of 4 in the plug) but there should be no practical difference between 3.0 and 2.0 speeds. The polling rate will most likely be identical and the microsecond difference between how long each takes to transfer the data is likely way lower than lag from the mouse’s wireless connection.
Just use any USB 2.0 hub, even $2 ones from AliExpress will work the same as high-end ones. Most are sold with 4 ports because that’s what their standard generic chip does. You probably have one lying around or built into the monitor. You’re unlikely to cause interference so just choose any spot with strong signal to the desk area, not necessarily line-of-sight: if the mouse works everywhere within 2 meters from the intended area, then the intended area will have good signal and minimal chance of dropout. The lag or polling rate does not decrease with signal strength unless you count extra nanoseconds the radio waves need to travel.
The only difference is when you need another port for high-speed applications such as mass storage devices or MTP with your phone, at which point just plug them directly into the PC for max speed.
Yes but you’ll need to intercept the HDMI cable with a beefy microcontroller to turn it back on when displaying patient data again so you don’t get fired. At this point, I’d be looking to disable the corresponding software if the computer is accessible.
Finally implementing something pirates have taken for granted since the first digital cross-platform audio file format (1983?)
…Like MS-DOS getting open sourced. It’s pretty much worthless unless you need to use some really old device.
The smart thing is to vote early and avoid the ruckus the stupider people will inevitably create around polling places on November 5.

Note that if supported by the font you use, the three symbols will usually be drawn the same way as an asterisk (*) in that font. This means a lot of variation.
Several typefaces’ rendering of Unicode U+2042 ASTERISM

I think the diversity is alright! It’s like the Fediverse: instances follow a standard to work with each other but can be heavily customized without breaking integration.
It’s in Unicode, duh… Otherwise, you’d need an image to represent it.
With some camera trickery (perhaps mounting it in a way so that it gets tilted/dollied by moving the door, plus fake camera shake to make it look less artificial), one could create a perfect loop. These do well on platforms where watch time/duration ratio is logged and videos loop unless stopped, namely TikTok.
Looks like a texture bug… Why would they bother modeling them if they’d end up using an obviously wrong texture?
In the Czech Republic, BILLA uses them and they respond to the RFID reader on my phone. It’s a different kind though, most have black-white-red displays.
Can’t wait for somebody to hack them, the displays are certainly neat. Especially if they manage to add it to an existing Home Automation network without extra hardware.
That’s why I didn’t specify which kind. I knew some laptops had a DSL or dial-up modem inside for use with any telephone sockets on the go.
