I just stripped half the screw head in my steam deck because none of my bits would fit just exactly right. I'd have been thrilled about finding torx there.

We already have regulations about spare parts availability and pricing for some devices (mainly household appliances) - and it is planned to slowly enforce regulation for other device types over time. They'll watch the market, and if apple decides to be stupid that'll come pretty quickly.
Just like with the appliances where some vendors had their shops ready way before regulation we already have some phone vendors prepare for that - like Nokia selling some spares via ifixit. So if apple decides to play stupid games it'll be up against vendors that'll be completely fine pushing regulation through quickly as hurting apple will only benefit them.
For non-gnome-users none of that matters. Only thing I ever touched from that was upower, but not even using that.
emacs lisp already lets you use the full range of unicode.
I also was almost dismissing it as "who let raddle out of the box again", but this is indeed a valid complaint, which even is easy enough for kbin to become compliant - so I also don't see why they didn't do it immediately when it was pointed out.
The majority of bots doesn't even show up in the logs if you disable password auth in the server config, as you typically should.
But will that kind of person really carry trash until a resting place, or maybe just dispose of it where they open stuff?
I personally always found trash cans in areas not commly frequented by cars rather odd - I got tought in the 80s and 90s that we are careful how we pack things we take with us when hiking, and take everything back.
It is a conecpt a 3 year old can understand (I see that now with my own kids), so you'd expect an adult not to have a hard time with that.
Ich hab gerade lange ueberlegt - aber hier genau so.
Wir wurden zwar durchaus beim Wandern davon ueberrascht dass ein Gewitter aufzog - aber da sieht man die Warnungen am Himmel schon lange genug dass man entweder abbrechen/verkuerzen kann, oder planen kann Schutz zu finden.
If I understand the article correctly they're trying to say it's a workplace injury to cap the payout to something lower than she was trying to get.
I find it quite useful as warning that you'll now hear about the opinion of a moron which you can safely ignore.
Agile, their team delivered a Minimum Viable Product
I guess that's kind of what got me into this mess.
They have some shitty web application where you're supposed to log times your kids will be in daycare. I logged in, looked around - and told the wife she can chose to log times herself, or tell daycare to do it themselves. I'm paid to deal with broken shit in my main job, I'm not doing that for free in my spare time.
At that point I assumed the web app was some prototype their intern had thrown together for the sales pitch, and they were now desperately trying to get it functional - to my surprise I later learned that it was an older product, with quite a few customers already.
Few weeks later wife came back upset from kindergarten over an argument about missing times - which forced me to actually deal with that dungheap, and prompted me to have a closer look at other components, like the android app they're using on their phones as well. There's a lot of stupid beginners mistakes in all components - not necessarily exploitable, but I also didn't really check as in my opinion the tag thing would be sufficient to have this taken out of use.
A lot of energy and water savings in modern machines are due to the electronics used. Also, replacement of weight to keep the machine from wandering around during spin cycles with sensors and attempts to rebalance laundry, if necessary.
The EU commission is aware of that, though for now hopes their ecodesign initiative for repairable products will be enough to push vendors in the right direction. Given that all of this is pretty new it's quite impressive to see how some vendors are embracing it already - I first noticed it when replacing an ancient kitchen oven, and in the shop next to spare sheets I could get all electronic components used in that thing.
I imagine they'll monitor the situation, and will have a chat with problematic companies based on that, or consumer protection complaints - like they did with the switch joycon drift thing, which I think was one of the first instances where eco design was referenced as reason for taking action.
