The Age of Bronze and Steel

The age of bronze and steel Here's a story I heard last night about 3D printing. (I'm not in the 3D-printing scene. I know people who are, though. And it's an interesting story, what the hell. If I can blog about dirty sea shanties, I can blog about the additive manufacturing industry.) A couple of months ago I retwooted this message about the end of a particular 3D-printed-metal process: Binder jetted steel with bronze infiltration is no more: the last source has discontinued the technology

With iOS 26, Safari will counter one of the web’s most invasive tracking methods

You Can Recycle Your Old Computers and Printers for Free. Here's Where to Take Them

It's somehow really hard to get rid of your old laptops, desktops and printers, even when it's been over a decade since you last plugged them in. But recycling old tech is easier than you think and can free up a lot of space in your home.

Android 15 is bricking some Fairphone 5 devices, and here’s how you can avoid it

Damien Wilde / Android Authority TL;DR The Android 15 update is causing some Fairphone 5 phones to become bricked, but only if the fingerprint sensor is broken. A Fairphone rep confirmed stricter hardware checks in Android 15 are to blame. A fix is in the works, but for now, users with faulty sensors should avoid the update. For phone geeks like us, an OS update is usually exciting, but it doesn’t always go smoothly. Multiple reports suggest that the Android 15 update is causing some Fairpho

Web fingerprinting is worse than I thought (2023)

If you are reading this article, you are most likely using a web browser, and you have some expectations or beliefs about online privacy and security. For example, I do not know what you are reading on other tabs on your web browser, and you would like to keep it that way.
