Great idea to use something like that in a tunnel or a garage. Suffocation - no breathing ... and probably some blown doors/walls from the pressure

I wonder how they will fill up the mines in the west with the current droughts and dried up rivers

Being born in Heilbronn and living in the are this was a "the what problem" moment indeed.

Sync was nice but also a pita. I remeber a sales guy having on of the first celluar cards in his notebook and he flew to a foreign country for a week. Notes sync kept the card online and we got a thank you letter from the provider. Later in my network job it was very often Notes clocking the lines, keeping dial on demand open and requiering the implementation of WAN accelarators.

You could put it another way: Every time Ray joined a new company he startet to reimplement Plato Notes/the idea of a synced database. Groove Networks did that and its a shame that all thats left at Microsoft is OneDrive. And if you look at the optic of Microsoft Teams, the small bar at the left, the tiles of the app part ... hello Notes my old friend/enemy

The law requires to mention the outstanding documentation “Office Space“ here.

Why does XTINK even bother with their own firmware. Let their developer work on Crosspoint and make great hardware.

oh, thats an awesome idea!

The current idea of passwordless seems to be "give me your email and put in the 6 digits i send you" - who ever pushes this absurdity, I hope you have an itch and short arms.

The sad part of it, way back we had to deal with icq, msn, Yahoo and then had the chance to reunite every one with XMPP. But that dream failed. Now we have a gazillion of services with anoying things like FOSS projects using closed source services like WhatsApp as their community base.

Last year ours bloomed, too. The problem is that it happens to late in the year and I can’t wrap that 5m high “tree” to protect from the cold. So the bananas were the size of your pinky. Next problem, once they bloom, they die. So yes, climate change is real. For comparison, we are located in south Germany near Stuttgart and we also have a fig tree and an olive tree in our garden.

No, bring back NetNews/NNTP. This spreading of communities over dozens of (commercial) services is annoying. And don't get me started about open source projects using WhatsApp groups as their main place to discuss things.

Whoever says this matters the most.

Thats like Microsoft saying "Don't use Linux because selling an operating system is what matters"
