📰 I started my home lab with a mini PC instead of a Raspberry Pi, and the difference was massive

Back when I started my home lab, it consisted of a compact mini PC. It evolved over the years, taking the form of multiple used enterprise rack servers, finally ending up as a few small business desktop PCs with low-power CPUs. But it all started with a Minisforum U850 with an Intel Core i5-10210U processor, Windows 10 Pro, and 16GB of DDR4 RAM. The chip had integrated graphics powered by Intel UHD 630. In terms of specs at the time of release,...

Smartphones and tablets are basically little computers with touchscreen displays. But since most ship with mobile operating systems like Android or iPadOS, they’re often tightly tied to Google or Apple for support, services, and app stores, among other things.

Firefox 151 refreshes New Tab page, supports PDF merging + more

The new tab page has a (slightly) new look and a new name in Firefox 151, the latest update to Mozilla’s famous open-source web browser that rolls out this week (May 18).

It’s not quite that dramatic, but the rounded search bar (no longer sticky on scroll) draws from the upcoming Nova redesign. You can now also choose to show more shortcuts, up to a maximum of 4 rows. Stories stay put, but the button to follow a topic moves to the left-hand […]
