Well the issue with renewable power like wind and solar, is that they are not stable.

Having a battery in order to store the energy and release it when the demand is higher than production is one part of the solution.

But what happens when there wasn’t enough solar and wind to replenish the batteries if those batteries aren’t enough for the demand? Power shortages, which are pretty bad to get.

One of the solutions to this is natural gas for a simple reason : it’s very fast to start generating power or to stop. It’s also not very expensive, at least when there isn’t a war… The co2 equivalent emissions aren’t as high as coal either.

Nuclear power on the other hand is very hard to stop. Having a surplus of power on the grid is also very bad. Some of it could be used to recharge the batteries, but there would be some loss at some point.

It is, but only if you go on the main website, and not the android sub category https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete/

And what you wish to have other than that depends on your needs.

I myself have an extension to unlock Bing AI on Firefox android.

Amd and nvidia both claim to check that displays support the required features to apply the logo.

However as Monitor Unboxed (Hardware Unboxed second channel) said, there is plenty of trash monitors, freesync or gsync.

Video? Is it my app or did you share the wrong link?

It’s something else. Here it’s US antitrust monopoly.

Google made deals with games and special contracts with other apps in order to kill competition.

Drms need to be installed and enabled on the browser. Drms like widevine and others.

If the drms aren’t enabled and installed on the browser, and able to communicate to the service it’s “safe”, spoofing the user agent won’t do anything.

It’s amd’s side of Nvidia’s gsync, but with a different way of working.

Both do about the same thing : match the monitor hz to the fps, in a range of minimum and maximum hz.

So if your game is doing 103fps and monitor can do 40-144hz. The monitor will match 103hz.

It reduces tearing and can maybe reduce the perception of lag. It doesn’t remove it. If you have frame drops you will still see them.

For the ur way of working :

-Gsync uses a physical chip in the monitor to do what it has to do. In addition of beeing a paid technology, it adds to the cost, and nvidia also does a quality control check on the monitors, which also increases costs. Gsync can only be used with nvidia gpus.

• Freesync on the other hand is free (no royalties). Not sure if amd does a quality control or spec control, but they introduced some years ago freesync ranks. Where to get a higher rank of freesync the monitor has to larch or do better than some specs (https://community.amd.com/t5/gaming/introducing-amd-freesync-premium-and-amd-freesync-premium-pro/ba-p/414261). It can be used on nvidia (still called gsync in the driver) or amd gpus.

There are some limitations with these tho, they can only be used with display port 1.4+(or 1.2+, i don’t remember) or hdmi 2.1+ because of variable refresh rate support. Except for amd gpus and freesync. Amd gpus support freesync with older hdmi versions.

This meme looks ai generated.

Scam/wish text is back and some elements looks off in the picture (hand, eyes teeth…).

Another article, much better and presents in more detail that Olvid was audited on an older version and chosen because it was French and they applied for it (French) https://www.numerama.com/tech/1575168-pourquoi-les-ministres-vont-devoir-renoncer-a-whatsapp-signal-et-telegram.html

Well let’s give some counter examples in the softwares I mentioned :

• WhatsApp closed : Owned by Facebook. Well Facebook had multiple data leaks, privacy violations and nothing substantial was done about it. Definitely not trustable (also zero days are getting sold on the black market for WhatsApp (https://techcrunch.com/2023/10/05/zero-days-for-hacking-whatsapp-are-now-worth-millions-of-dollars/ ).

• Telegram closed : not end to end encrypted. Russian app. Not trustable.

• Signal open : well this one is e to e encrypted. Open source, maybe could be trusted. Seems to have passed some security audits (https://community.signalusers.org/t/overview-of-third-party-security-audits/13243), tho it’s based in the US and uses servers, maybe the US may have super computers capable of decrypting such communications. However is signal has switched their encryption to quantum computer resistance it may be too hard even for a state actor. However they also “debunked”/ignored zero-day reports which were not reported through their own tool, and by asking the US for confirmation. I am not sure if the US can be trusted to give confirmation about the existance or not of vulnerabilities when they are very likely to use them (https://thehackernews.com/2023/10/signal-debunks-zero-day-vulnerability.html?m=1).

• Olvid open (servers closed) : is French, e to e, and backed up by an encryption PhD. And why not use a local messaging app witch also is very secure and open source.

Notice how closed source is untrusted here. The economic activity of the tool changes how trustable it is. Military équipement has a huge and strict budget, it has to be secure.

Communication apps are user first. So they do what they can get away with, and that is very true for Facebook.

That is an European proposition, and not French at all. France can stand for or against that.

Because lots of people aren’t smart enough to make the link with a factory.

But the non smart people see smoke or steam and they think pollution.

Sending the entire email content to their cloud isn’t that good.

However an advantage to doing so is to be able to use push notifications on the app without having to poll continuously the email address from the device. Which in return reduces the battery usage compared to constant polling.

However, they could have done something like spark mail, only get the email subject, sender and a little bit of the content to put into the noficiation then delete after the push notificdation has been sent.

There is a way to create a Google account with an external email address. If you don’t have anything tied to your Google original account, it could be a way to access Google tools.

This looks like scam email and Aliexpress products merged together.

Red Hat enterprise Linux?

Sry did it. The apps I use seem to be smart enough to stop at html.

It was something else. Web drm : Web Integrity API.

Tho I don’t think they canceled the mobile variant of it for apps.

The article is English. Only the one in the post text for additional info is French.
