I see you link to apps.rebble.io in the blog post - will this use Rebble's web services as well?

Time to blow up a nodemcu.

That's actually really cool. I have a polk soundbar, which already does have a IR remote, but it doesn't actually do anything...

Optane was very cool, but at the same time it quickly turned into a very niche product. If I'm not mistaken, once of the primary purposes was to accelerate spinning disk drives. However, I really don't think that's needed nowadays as hard drives aren't really that horrible now and SSDs are getting cheaper and cheaper every year.

I think if Intel really focused on what they were trying to do, I really do think they would have had success in the data center for accelerating data center drives.

Lightroom user here.

It's over hyped. Yeah, it's cool and all but anything else would do the same thing. The only thing that I actually found is better in Lightroom is the AI detection features. Same can go with Photoshop and paint.net (or gimp if you're into that kinda thing.)

Yeah, this leads me to believe the other guy was right. The automated document checker probably flagged one of those domains leading to your documents getting removed.

I have a desktop PC, and I have 2 SSD's in my laptop, and I used to dual boot ESXi and windows. Worked perfectly fine, just remotes into ESXi on my desktop at home.

Now I dual boot Manjaro and a small windows partition, and just use qemu for most of my basic VMS.

Sometimes people bash companies for stupid reasons when they make mistakes.

This guy in the other hand, dives deep in why, how, and more. I like this guy.

Both of you're statements are valid. If an attacker has access to your device you are *severely* compromised and you can't do much. I am going off the idea that your password manager clears your clipboard history however, but this is a valid and true statement. The thing is: nothing will be 100% secure. Ever. But if we evolve our security at the same rate loopholes, etc are being found, we can prevent data breaches, identity theft, etc. Before it even happens.

I like password managers. It keeps people from writing them down on your desk or a notepad, so I'm all for it. I hate autofill. Any form of autofill, automated, user request, any of it. I would like people to just use a small button to open a 'mini instance' of the password manager, like an instant app (or app clips for iphones), and copy your password that way. Autofill is also a huge security risk, excluding if they use biometric authentication. If they use a pin code, forget it. If an attacker is on your device in the first place, chances are they have your pin code. Autofill needs to be deprecated.
