  • And Adobe could make you pay that because they had enough money before, to do the lobbying required to make sure the institutions don’t go FOSS.

    Perhaps, would be a nice idea to have some uni that gives both, artistic and programming courses, have the art people interact with software being worked on by the programming people. And they could use any FOSS project for that.
    That way everyone gets lots of code to look at and play with, learn skills that otherwise freshers would gravely lack (looking at other’s code) and maybe also get some upstream commits [1]. while greatly reducing school fees


    1. as a result of the art people (real users) interacting with programmers who are now also interacting with industry people (upstream maintainers) ↩︎















  • It was completely unusable. Everyone was jamming everyone else.

    The companies deserve all the flak they get in this case. They know it is congested because they are the ones who did it, but don’t care to think about it.

    The least they could do is to let the user change the settings, but “oooh nooo PICNIC!”
    Ideally they should use a WiFi analyser while setting up the device and if there are too many APs of their own company, send a report to their nearby office so that it can be rectified.





  • Yes!

    The one I bought, doesn’t overheat even at 100%, but the ISP one used to overheat even with the WiFi off.

    On the other hand, I recently tried connecting my router directly to the ISPs network (trying to lose the NAT) and it was hanging every few minutes. I was running Wireshark and unable to configure it to get internet access.

    I would consider the main reason for overheating to be internet traffic, but in some models, the WiFi makes the difference to.
