I don’t know this specific brand but because of this quote in the article I assumed it’d not be automatically registered:
“If you do choose to register a Peak Design product, and it is lost or stolen, you can reach out to our customer service team and have your registration erased, so the bag is not traceable back to you.”
Why do they say “if you do choose to register” if you don’t have a choice?
I don’t think that ‘tracing’ here means something like ‘there’s a GPS tracker in every backpack’.
You could see this type of backpack in a CCTV shot. Later the police recovered a backpack - that they thought was the one on CCTV - and now need to find the owner. If it was registered at the company by the owner, they may have been able to say “oh yes, that serial number is registered to a customer. Here’s their name and address they told us when registering at $date”. If the customer never registered their bag, the only piece of information they could give out would (maybe) be something like “This bag was sent to an Amazon warehouse at $date, ask them if they know who bought these bags around $date”
Yeah, I’m also using a local resolver. But since I had some problems using another DHCP server (which was probably a problem on my end), so I’m current setting some devices in my FRITZ!box to a fixed IP and then enter that in my DNS server. If I could just skip the second part and tell the FRITZ!Box to just resolve printserver.example.com instead of printserver.fritz.box - that’d be nice. Maybe I should do another try with a DHCP server soon.

I really like them but they do have two downsides for “more advanced” users (or at least for me) - it is a home device as after all.
If you’re an advanced user, there’s plenty of ways around that, though. I just wished that these two thing were to exist in the firmware to have less work with my home infrastructure.
Same, I needed to expand my Wi-Fi and was to lazy to run an Ethernet and a power cable across the attic. I settled for two TP-Link EAP and a TP-Link managed switch that also provides PoE. You can run all three devices stand alone, but Omada is also quite nice - you can run it without using their cloud on your home server and even connect their app to your local controller.
No, everyone knows we’re gonna do gardening or woodworking or something like that when we stop our programming career. Main thing is: something that’s as far as possible from a computer.
Your top song was $songThatIReallyListenedToAFewTimes. You had a streak of two days listening to it and your play count was 4.
Ok, the genre is right. The band is a band I know and sometimes listen to, but I dislike their newer songs (which the above is an example of). The start might be right, but it’s definitely not my top listened song 2024

A friend of mine just messaged me, that we cannot play a few selected games anymore, as his notebook was acting up. Upon further investigation I found out, that he is still running Windows 8.1 and cannot use Steam anymore, since Steam support on Windows 8.1 ended about a year ago and a Chrome update “finally” broke Steam on windows 8.1 a few weeks ago.

I do have Google Messages on my phone, as the pre-installed SMS app doesn’t support RCS (or maybe just doesnt want to talk to the RCS implementation of my mobile network). I tried a few alternatives, but all didn’t want to enable RCS on the mobile network that I’m on or had some other major problems. Google Messages just worked.
Since today, I cannot access the app without a login. I cannot proceed and access my messages unless I login. It’s not just the Google features as you state, the whole app is now useless.
What’s he gonna do about it?

I don’t know the Immich API, but I’ve seen several REST APIs that used the usual pattern of
GET /api/v1/user/<id> - read user
POST /api/v1/user/ - create user
...
but also allowed
GET /api/v1/user/<id> - read user
GET /api/v1/user/?action=create - create user
...

Hey, uhm… Also I heard, that there’s oil to be found below Putin’s secret bunker.
It’s not only the frequencies, but also the modulation and the protocol (“how devices talk to each other”). Your phone may support all needed frequencies and might still not be able to “talk” to the network.
Depends, I’m from Europe and there are many local sites that allow that. You might need to search for a bit (e.g. not a button but a link in some fine print). But yes, there are many sites that just don’t have a “decline all” button and that ask you to deny every one of their 937.726.193.372.129 partners (most of them double, as you need to deselect the partner and their “legitimate interests” separately…
I just host my own searxng instance. Bonus: I get to tweak the config to my liking.
