Bei der Lufthansa dürfen Powerbanks mit bis zu 100 Watt im Handgepäck transportiert werden.

Was für ein konfuser Artikel. Über die Leistung der Powerbanks wird in den Regeln überhaupt nichts gesagt. Was begrenzt wird, ist die erlaubte Kapazität. Dort sind 100 Wh das erlaubte Maximum.

If you plan on running the laptop all the time on wall power, make sure to limit the battery charge to 80 % or less, otherwise the battery will die pretty quickly.

The worst part is that Nextcloud isn’t even really in competition with Google. Setting up a Nextcloud server isn’t hard, but it’s not a trivial task. Sharing it outside your local network also requires a bit of skill, especially if done securely. That is to say, Nextcloud users probably tend to be more tech-savvy.

That's only true for those who self-host this. There are lots of companies offering Nextcloud hosting. That's probably why Google doesn't like Nextcloud. I'm not saying Google is right. Actually what Google is doing here is quite pathetic.

Yes, using uuidgen should work fine.

Thanks for pointing this out. I thought this had to be an actual UUID. Generating a unique string of arbitrary format manually is certainly much easier to do manually without additional tools.

This is not quite true. As I mentioned in my other comment already, each feed entry needs its own unique UUID. You have to generate such a UUID for every entry.

How do people subscribe to them?

Subscribing to an RSS feed really is nothing more than telling your RSS client about the URL to that RSS XML file. The RSS client then regularily checks the URL for changes.

If your site is hand-made as you say, you would have to manually create and update the RSS file also. This is quite a nuisance, not only because it is XML, but also because every feed entry needs its own unique UUID, which you need to create. Perhaps you could create a script that does it for you. Static site generators are usually able to automatically create an RSS feed for you.

Correct, you summarized that well.

The easiest way to do it is by running a Kiwix server and hosting a copy of Wikipedia with that.

I am not sure which CPUs exactly the article is refering to with those early i586 CPUs, but I do remember those Cyrix 6x86/6x86MX CPUs. When it comes to Linux, they were always treated as 486-class CPUs because they were missing some instructions required to be considered 586-class. On the other hand their architecture was actually quite modern, like a 686 CPU with out-of-order execution. The 6x86MX also supported the CMOV instruction which is usually associated with 686-class CPU. Quite strange CPUs from today's perspective.

VIA also had some CPUs (certain VIA C3 CPUs) that the Linux kernel always treated as 486-class CPUs due to some missing 586 instructions.

AMD's Am5x86 CPUs were rebranded 486 CPUs, while AMD's K5 was an early 586 CPU that might fall into that early 586 category due to missing instructions. AMD's later K6 CPUs should support all Pentium instructions afaik (but not CMOV like the Cyrix CPUs did).

I've subscribed to their RSS feed, but their server is so unreliable, my feed reader complains all the time that it is unreachable. When I manually retry it mostly works, only to fail again later. I'm wondering what's going on there. I never have this problem with any other feed…

That is awesome!

It's World Backup Day again. Good opportunity to check if your backup mechanisms work as intended.

Bitwarden introduced a non-free dependency to their clients. The Bitwarden CTO tried to frame this as a bug but his explanation does not really make it any less concerning.

Perhaps it is time for alternative Bitwarden-compatible clients. An open source client that's not based on Electron would be nice. Or move to something else entirely? Are there any other client-server open source password managers?
