Ur Vi Bilägare 16/22; långtest. Jag not 2 saker om : "Alla tänkbara säkerhetssystem erbjuds, på papperet.

Which you can then rip to FLAC, store on your computer or DAP.

And owning a copy on optical disc -- with artwork! -- isn't bad either!

Omslaget på min nästa bok. Intervjupersonerna är i huvudsak internflyktingar, många bor på en fotbollsarena i Lviv. Men boken handlar inte bara om kriget, utan minst lika mycket om Ukrainas utveckling under 30 år av självständighet. Varför är Ukraina inte som Ryssland?

The keyboard on my Lenovo ThinkPad T430s gives a better typing experience than my T460p (but it is ok).

You know everything we're supposed to do with passwords.

Most people don't do it. It's not your fault. The system is broken.

Kill passwords. New "passkeys" tech can help. washingtonpost.com/technology/

Of unknown reason, I waited a month to upgrade my software to the new 7.9.0 release. I am still happy I moved over to digiKam, primarily as photo catalog manager, but I can also use it for editing etcetera. I intend to use eg and in addition, maybe more (now also ).
