Microsoft will now urge you to ditch local accounts on Windows 10
  • I've never heard of AtlasOS until this comment. I read the documentation and it's interesting that they need you to install it using a fresh Windows ISO. I wonder what they are doing that can't be accomplished on an existing Windows installation with a bunch of Powershell scripts?

  • Online travel agent allows customers to filter out Boeing 737 Max planes
  • If people start choosing their flights based on aircraft type, it seems like the airline could just list all flights as the "good" aircraft and then automatically change it to the "bad" aircraft close to the departure date.

  • Researcher has developed, at a cost of less than one dollar, a wireless light switch that runs without batteries, can be installed anywhere on a wall and could reduce the cost of wiring a house by ...
  • I wouldn't call it "harvesting" if you have operate power transmitters on each floor of the house. "Energy harvesting" usually means you are using something that is already present in the environment.

    "each floor would have one or two RF (radio frequency) power transmitters to powe r up all switches inside the house."

  • Beeper Mini is the iMessage for Android app we’ve been waiting for - Mishaal Rahman
  • It looks like Beeper has purchased the software from the person who developed this, but his GitHub repo for it is still up.

    He has also created a way to permanently side load apps on iPhone without jailbreaking. I imagine Apple will be working on both of these "problems".

  • Beeper Mini is the iMessage for Android app we’ve been waiting for - Mishaal Rahman
  • Interesting. I just checked and found the information. It sounds like they want to rebuild the whole app and just add one service at a time. They are starting with just iMessage.

    Edit: I wonder how long this will last. They aren't using a Mac to log you into your iCloud account with this. They have found a workaround.

    "This is now possible because the iMessage protocol and encryption have been reverse engineered by jjtech, a security researcher."

    Edit 2: I'm really curious about this. The researcher has some Python that can run anywhere and let you send iMessages. It seems like something the Apple would shutdown, but, on the other hand, I wouldn't expect Beeper to introduce an app that might get disabled.

  • Beeper Mini is the iMessage for Android app we’ve been waiting for - Mishaal Rahman
  • I'm confused about this article because I have Beeper, but they make this statement:

    "Beeper Mini is a new app from the folks behind Beeper, a unified chatting and inbox app that brings together the best chat apps under one roof."

    I haven't heard about a mini version.

  • Debrid + stremio + torrentio also Unchained - General Discussion.
  • Just based on the wide variety of comments in that Reddit post, it sounds like there are many things that can prevent this from working. I don't know all the details of what can go wrong, but it might depend on Android version or any customizations that various manufacturers may have implemented in their Android device.

    There probably isn't a single solution to getting this to work, and your problem could possibly be different than my problem.

  • I was actually trying to describe having the server folder mounted directly on the Android device, so the download would go straight to the server and never touch your device storage. This would be separate from using Xplore, which doesn't do what I'm thinking of. I tried mounting my NAS as smb using the app in the the below explanation, but it wasn't working.

  • Debrid + stremio + torrentio also Unchained - General Discussion.
  • I don't think you will be able to get anything to download to another device using any of these services. I use Unchained to get things saved to my RD area, then I run a script on my NAS to download to it (the NAS). You could maybe get something to work if you were able to mount a network drive onto your phone. Then maybe you could get the phone to download to that mounted drive, instead of to the phone's internal storage. I can access files on network devices from my Android phone and tablet using an app like Xplore, but I've never tried to see if I could have Android mount a network drive, so I am just speculating.
