in effetti ho provato un po' la versione presa dal repo di DivestOS, e non ho avuto problemi... direi che diventa il mio default :)

Avevo notato, sto usando Fennec, ma potrebbe essere l'occasione per ri-provare Mull. L'avevo provato tempo fa ma avevo problemi su troppi siti, qualcuno lo usa regolarmente qui?

yeah, baking soda works but you have to be careful with the amount you put in them or they'll taste very bland after...

no I can confirm that it work without gapps on Lineage... probably something else...

No. Windows ships already well compressed. There's no way it'll compress further by 50%.

I've been getting about that rate of compression consistently with Clonezilla on windows 10. I also didn't have any problems relocating it... it just start a driver update step and then reboots normally, but idk about how licensing work for this cases.

Invidious public instances have been completely blocked by this, it's no longer AB testing. IDK exactly what triggers it but, too many requests from the same ip is going to show this now... maybe OP vpn exits with an ip shared by too many...

non ho controllato, ma se leggi la discussione su github, in pratica lo sviluppatore l'ha ritirato, perche' non aveva tempo di stare dietro a questi problemi :D .... :(

Sarebbe da aggiungere che alla fine Mozilla ha risposto scusandosi per l'errore e ripristinando l'estensione, ma sono d'accordo con lo sviluppatore che commenta che non poteva essere un'errore in buona fede... mossa molto bizzarra da parte loro...

Thanks for the interesting write-up!

Thanks, I'll have a look. It's an universal mains power supply with no voltage switch.

How were you measuring the current in the power cable? Is this with a Kill-o-watt device or perhaps with a clamp meter and a line splitter?

For the current both with a line-splitter+clamp and checked with an in-line meter. For the power factor, since I don't have any actual instrument to measure It, and I just needed a ball-park figure to discern actual consumption from a capacitor, I used this diy method: https://www.giangrandi.org/electronics/cosphi/cosphi.shtml , which measured 0.04 ( with great approximation ).

As for why there is a capacitor across the mains input [...]

I have the basic on how a switching power supply work, but I was asking because it seemed weird to me that commercial appliances didn't take any stand-by meaures to avoid "keeping the wires warm"... is this the norm?

Bought a new PC, and I was measuring its consumption out of curiosity. I noticed something weird (to me): when the PC is off (in fact, I completely disconnected the PSU and did the same test), there is quite some current running in the power cable to the PSU (0.15A).

Further measures showed a power factor of (almost) zero, and I can actually measure a capacity of 2uF across the PSU ac input.

I did the same thing on an older PC I have, and there is no current / capacity. So what would the reason of a capacitor across the mains on the input be in a PSU?

PS: the PSU is a Thermaltake Toughpower GF A3 1050W

Edit: I found some official measurements for this specific PSU: https://www.cybenetics.com/evaluations/psus/2249/ that have 40W standby apparent-power by design

Hi! I'm relatively new to mechanical keyboards and I need some help.

I need a 60% that will allow to toggle between two mode, one for writing and one for cursor movement with arrows (possibly on IJKL).

From what I found most of the 60% use the Fn button for arrows, but you have to keep it pressed, which will not work for me... I need to actually toggle the alternative layout. Some 60% have a "Fn lock" to support this, but it's hard to tell by just looking at their specs...

Do you know any model with a similar feature?
