My installation process for a new mouse is as follows: 1 - Attempt to plug it in. 2 - Flip the USB connector. 3 - Plug it in. 4 - Use the mouse.
Is there anything at all to be gained from installing the software that comes with the mouse? Even with extra side buttons, I've never had anything not work out of the box.
Edit: OP is remapping buttons. Got it.
I really don't understand this. What does the Army gain by commissioning tech execs as reserve officers? Wouldn't it be far more effective to just hire their companies as contractors? Or commission high-level engineers as officers. A tech exec's skillet is running a company. Sure, offer commissions to their most skilled employees, but to the execs themselves, why?
Not really. While I don't have the exact numbers, the output of an infrared LED is no higher (usually) than an LED in the visible range. My security cameras have an array of 10 or so LEDs.
So looking at a security camera would be roughly equivalent to staring at a light bulb.
Why? If everyone does poorly, everyone should fail, provided the opportunity to learn was there.
This has always seemed overblown to me. If students want to cheat on their coursework, who cares? As long as exams are given in a controlled environment, it's going to be painfully obvious who actually studied the material and who had ChatGPT do it for them. Re-taking a course is not going to be fun or cheap.
Maybe I'm oversimplifying this, but it feels like proctored testing solves the entire problem.
I'll pay for good software. Developers deserve a decent wage, too. I'll pay a lot for really good software. I'll buy new versions of the tools I use often.
What I will never ever do is subscribe to software, no matter how good it is. Software is not a service and should not ever be sold as such.
Mathematically, I think it's hard for people to truly understand the obscene wealth that some people have accumulated. 100 billion doesn't sound that different than 100 million.
100 million is magnitudes closer to ZERO than it is to 100 billion.
If you don't want offline maps, and you don't want to use data, what exactly are you looking for? The map has to come from somewhere.
As the article mentions, this isn't a security "feature," it's anti-competetive. The worst part is that Nextcloud isn't even really in competition with Google. Setting up a Nextcloud server isn't hard, but it's not a trivial task. Sharing it outside your local network also requires a bit of skill, especially if done securely. That is to say, Nextcloud users probably tend to be more tech-savvy.
The people using Nextcloud aren't going to suddenly decide to switch over to Google Drive. I'll get it from FDroid before I downgrade to Google Drive. If that wasn't an option, I'd set up an FTP server or even WebDAV.
I'm not even sure what that could mean. Maybe using chopsticks instead of a fork? I've always just eaten food with whatever utensil is typically used for that type of cuisine. I think most people, Chinese or otherwise, eat Chinese food with chopsticks, don't they?
Gas turbines produce a lot of power, as in 1MW or more per turbine. Is this a backup system, or is the facility using so much power that they literally need their own electric plant to sustain it?
"Start a business" almost certainly means "Buy into an MLM scam."
