I read the website but it doesn't say. But it does say that the consumer will have to check that the charger is compatible with the device so you might end up frying your device if you connect them to the wrong USB C Charger (things that were prevented because of the different connectors). I don't say that the directive is wrong but it doesn't go far enough. It should force all devices manufacturers and chargers manufacturers to use the power delivery protocol so consumers don't have to worry about power compatibility between chargers and devices.

The power delivery protocol allows for the device and the charger to negotiate a charging power.

Without delivery protocol the charger delivers as much power as it's can so it might fry the connected device.

Is it only the physical connector or also the Power Delivery protocol? Because if it's only the connector you might end up plugging 2 things that are not compatible with each other.

Management will say that they if they can offload 30% then we can increase the weight carried by the employee by 40%.

No DRM is the way to go, physical or digital. Some physical DRM can revoke the licence on the disk (like Blu-ray)

They can also revoke the licences on the disks.

The main issue with biometrics is that you can't change them. If your fingerprints or retina are compromised you're fucked.

Yeah "Open source" can be many things and the definition is often misused. I would say it's FOSS without being FLOSS. As you say "source available".

Hello et merci Camus pour cet espace. J'espère qu'il sera quand même actif vu la maigre communauté de Wallons.

This take gets colder as you get more experience.

Hello! Suivant mes observations personnelles et limitée j'ai pu constater que les belges francophones sont très peu actifs sur Reddit et le semble encore moins sur Lemmy. Je suis abonné a Belgium qui est beaucoup plus actif et multilingue (majoritairement anglais et néerlandais).

Je serai pour la migration sur jlai.lu pour regrouper les européens francophones.

Yes, it's the current thrend in software development, ship the minimal viable product and then react according to the customer complains.

Us is the first ally you can have. Before you meet Lae'zel on the ship.
