What I meant is that if they don’t feel the need tp redo it again after the same amount of time, it must mean there was a good reason to do it before, and they probably addressed all the problems they wanted (mainly about security). Also I don’t feel like the iconic look changed that much. The format is the same, the color is the same, and the buldings are similar

I think the new series also has some tactile strips on the side which should also help

A reminder that the “new” 5€ note is as old as the old one was when the new was released. First series was 11 years old (2002-2013), new is also 11 years old (2013-2024). Higher value notes were introduced later though

How would random laywers have access to your number?

If I recall, Kurzon was pressured into leaving the station because she had too many ties to Jadzia’s friends and even her husband.

Considering how much money a salary is, it’s easy to see how 30/40€ of license (or whatever that is) is a negiglible sum to save on potentially enormous legal troubles.

Also, depending how big the company is, automatic installation and deployment systems might be in place, and changing that also has a cost.

That’s exactly how it feels: a more modern and more powerful notepad++, with lots of syntax support and easier to add new languages (even better than code in my opinion). Code seems to try and be an ide for everything, but if I’m doing a complex project, I’ll be getting a specific ide, for everything else a good text editor and a Makefil is all I need

Microsoft website does this (especially their useless answer), I guess it’s malice

I think they are dependant, but they don’t want to be brought down to mud. That’s why they try everything to not actively participating in the conflict, limiting to let russian troops pass trought but bot sending belarusian troops. If they attacked, the people would burn Lukaschenko alive

That’s weird, I don’t have it

That’s why we need to fight against chromium monopoly

aoe2 works fine under wine, but the definitive edition does not. In my opinion proton pretty much almost works better for games than simple wine

Fallout 3, but especially New Vegas have great stories and hundreds of hours of gameplay, and work fenomenally on proton (I mean, they are equally buggy as in other versions). Fallout 4 is good as well, but I have never tested it on linux

Unfortunately last time I checked, aoe2:de does not run on Proton (but aoe2:hd does), maybe things changed

Laminated paper qr codes for long-term storage could last centuries, possibly much more than an hard drive or a flash drive. That would probably outlive any computer it couls be used on, but it’s an interesting solution.

That is the reason why identification documents are needed. How can they hire people without knowing who they are?

If you use a strong password and 2fa, there’s no way to prevent login attempts, and a strong enough authentication will make random login attempts just a nuicance. You can set up a recovery address (that must be equally safe). If you are using an online password manager, check there was no known leak

Open source software in general is getting incredibly complex. While big companies mopolized the software industry at the end of the century, now the most widely used technologies are completely open source (kvm, linux, docker, apache, ssh, c++, rust), which means that everyone has access to it and can use it for personal or light commercial use without too much cost and hassle. Sure, companies still monopolize, but only because they offer hardware and services at a big scale, if you want to have an indipendent space on the internet, this would be the perfect time

(Assuming you are using your smartphone) check your battery saving options. Sometimea battery saving for the entire phone or for the clock app can make it less “respondent” to times

That’s right. They are not glorified as being enlightened or particularly great at things in general. Those figures are idolized because of the power they managed to obtain and their skill in military tactis and strategy.
