Convenient to leave out Apple it's working on AI (Apple Intelligence) too. I don't think any big company is safe from the hype train.

Cookies! by InFerNo in c/lemmybewholesome@lemmy.world

[-] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 36 points 1 year ago

Brandname "Biscoff" is a disgrace in its home country. The type of cookie is called speculoos, pairs well with coffee (and black tea!). Lotus, the manufacurer, decided to market the cookie outside of its home country by changing the name to Biscoff, a portmanteau of biscuit and coffee. Eventually they changed the name here too, which led to some backlash, but they stuck with the name.

If you really like Biscoff, they also produce a paste similar to peanut butter, but speculoos taste.

Now that you know the actual original name of the cookie, you can look for other brands, too.

Also, check out speculaas, which was the inspiration for speculoos. Speculaas requires a specific blend of spices, which speculoos lacks. "Loos" in Dutch is a suffix meaning without, like "less" in English (e.g. penniless), so it was a clever way to differentiate between speculaas and speculoos.

GM blocks dealership from installing Apple CarPlay retrofit kits in EVs by InFerNo in c/technology@lemmy.world

Why can't it just work like a dock for any device? Why does it have to be carplay or android auto with locked down protocols?

I always thought it had to do with avoiding ambiguity. By using a specific word with a specific meaning, you don't need to expand on the context. I think I read that somewhere a long time ago and just accepted it.

Microsoft says it won't let you use Mail & Calendar app on Windows 11 by InFerNo in c/technology@lemmy.ml

It works better for searching, it works offline, catch-all addresses just work with correct from address when replying, backup and archiving, can move mails from box to box without sending.

I also use roundcube, but only to read mails. If I want to reply to a catch-all mail I have to create an alias which is super tedious.

Sega "Gold Cartridge" in Master System (lemmy.ml)

Hi, I'm looking for info on the compatibility of the "Gold Cartridge" with regards to the Master System. I was looking at one of these and it says on the box that it's made for the Mark III and Master System. However, the form factor is different than other Master System cartridges, and it's also nothing like a Sega Card. I've been looking for information online, but to my surprise I'm not coming up with any answers.

Are the Gold Cartridges compatible with (EU) Master System consoles? Do they fit in the cartridge slot?

What kind of switch is similar to my current keyboard (lemmy.ml)

I have an old Logitech UltraX Premium low-profile scissor switch keyboard. Unfortunately this one's dieing, as one of the keys is now broken.

I'm not well versed in mechanical switches and I'm not native English, so some of the explained terminology is a bit harder to understand when I'm looking for the subtle differences in the switches.

I'm looking for the right switch that is somewhat similar to my current keyboard. On any given key I can apply some pressure, but the key will not press down. When I push a little harder, the key goes down to the bottom. What kind of switch am I looking for in this case? Linear, clicky, "tactile bump", ...?

I'm currently interested in the Keychron K5. It has similar dimensions with regards to height of the keys (around 2cm) and is a full layout.

Thanks in advance.

I have 15 VM's running for clients and I'm looking for a way to keep the tools up to date without having to connect to each server and do it manually. A few examples are WinDirStat, Firefox, SSMS, Filelocator, etc.

We have expanded recently and I'm at the limits of doing this manually. These servers are not domain joined and are in separate virtual networks.

Where are the PINE64 monthly community updates? (lemmy.ml)

It's been a while since they've made one.

I have a PineTime and my wife wants one too, so I was looking to see if there's any mention of a PT2 on the horizon, as well as catch up on all the hardware news, but to my surprise there hasn't been any news since april. Not a big deal, it's only a few months, but still, they used to provide monthly updates. Skipping an update can happen, but they basically skipped 3 months since the last one. What's going on?

I actually go there more often now that I try to avoid reddit in my search results. Sometimes valuable posts have been edited or deleted.

What is the most opinionated linux distro? by InFerNo in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 35 points 2 years ago

Offtopic, but I'd steer clear of brave. They feel scammy, have crypto built in and replace ads with their own. Since it's built on chromium it just adds to the market share of chromium and towards a Google controlled internet.
