What if the Realtek RTL8821CE WIFI module is not recognized under the Ubuntu system? (www.hystou.com)

Overview:Most linux operating systems (such as Ubuntu) do not integrate Realtek RTL8821CE driver in the system library, so you can't use WIFI in the operating system, and if you want to use WIFI networking, you need to install the driver manually. Here is how to install the driver:...

The housing mar(ule)ket

Most of you probably know the memes about homes not being affordable to younger generations. It is true, that they are, at least, less affordable as illustrated by Figure 4-1. The reasons for that however aren't evil Landlords, who want to leech as much as possible. It is more a combination of several factors:...

$10,000 connection fee plus $3/ft for the line last time I tried getting fibre into a rural area. They also wanted a 5 year commitment. 🤮

It's been awhile since I used an Apple device. Do they still forbid people from using bluetooth to send stuff to android phones?

Guess it's time to create an issue on your display manager's github. And pray to the penguin gods they resolve it.

  • Telnyx for personal VoIP use?

    Hi! I'm just looking for a SIP provider so I can hook my phone to. Ideally with servers located in SE Asia for lower latency. Telnyx seems to have servers in Singapore, which seems convenient. Is it possible to prepay credit for SIP calls for a single account, then hook your phone with Linphone/Zoiper or similar and just use it...

    I was using http://VoIP.ms worked fairly well as a sip service, and I believe it works the way you're hoping for. I'm unfamiliar with the provider you mentioned.

    I struggled with getting a reliable sip service on my cellphone because of unreliable network conditions. What did help was connecting to a TCP VPN.

    In the enterprise I found zoiper worked fairly well.

    Linphone worked fine as well for my hobby projects but my roommate at the time didn't like the interface.

    Some phones have their own sip client deep in the settings too, that is the ideal method.

    Edit: a potential solution if you're looking to just use it for international calls. You could configure the sip service to take calls from your number exclusively and call the number you're wishing to dial. And have inbound calls to that number connect to you.

    Fun fact, there's only 3 real choices.

    There's Firefox, Chromium and Safari.

    Every other browser is essentially a skin of one of those.

    I would suggest using Firefox or one of its spin off versions.

    Personally, I use the ESR version of Firefox so I don't regularly get unneeded updates.

    Sure, let me know if I'm following this train of thought by drawing a parallel.

    If we swapped out rendering engine with game engines. It would be best if we kept to a few game engines and focused on the game mechanics and story?

    In that spirit, I would agree with you. Much like the examples you provided, its more about who or what controls the full stack of experience. It's just, quickly thinking about this I'm struggling to find a compelling reason to use a browser beyond the basics. Since the core features I seem to require are satisfied in any browser that isn't provided by an entity that puts capital interests before the user too harshly. Plus the addition of an adblocker and custom theming.

    Ultimately, it just needs to show the webpage safely and precisely how it was intended to be seen, without ads. Through the support of extensions, I suspect that would satisfy any additional requirement someone could desire or imagine without the need to delve much deeper into custom browsers. At least, a browser for general use without a specific purpose. But perhaps I'm misjudging the capacity of those potential extensions in the face of a customized browser?

    I suspect, how opera paints a bunch of features down the left side may be hard to replicate on another?

    I'm surprised that the service works at all in Russia. Isn't there some sort of sanction that disallows that? I think it's time for someone to look into that.

    Opinion: It's Time To Ditch 2.4GHz WI-FI

    2.4GHz wifi is not suitable for two big reasons, interference and low bandwidth. 2.4GHz wifi in any kind of suburban or city environment and sometimes even in rural will be congested with other networks, microwaves, other appliances, etc causing massive speed degradation or fluctuations. The range of 2.4GHz is just too large for...

    @Toes@ani.social avatar

    I get this opinion quite well.

    The problem I've observed are devices that foolishly switch to 2.4ghz in a crowded space, such as the Nintendo switch. There really needs to be an extra check for devices sensitive to latency to never connect to a 2.4ghz network on a crowded channel unless it's the only option.

    yeah, if USB 5 isn't all optional features are now mandatory. They need to fire everyone who has touched that project.

    Toes ,
    @Toes@ani.social avatar

    We're already there, since you can't trust if a usb-c device will work with a usb-c port.

    They had an opportunity to resolve this with usb4, it's practically a worthless feature set because things remained optional. The U is for universal and they forgot that, there's no excuses it's just gross incompetence.

    Toes ,
    @Toes@ani.social avatar

    I believe you're not understanding my point, as I never suggested usb4 to be mandatory. Perhaps you're not familiar with the problem at hand?

    Here's the problem.

    Try to place yourself in the mindset of someone frustrated by potentially wasting thousands of dollars because the equipment you bought, despite the same connector and matching version just won't work by design. As there's not always a clear or trustworthy way to confirm it without just trying it.

    You can have 3 computers with 3 USBC ports among them and a USBC device that only works in one of those computers. Even though each of these computers have a USB3 usbc port. And the device is marketed as USB3.

    This is because the device manufacturer opted to use an optional feature of USB3 that the computer manufacturer elected to opt out of.
    Additionally the standards body that dictates this, changed the names of the subversions several times. To accurately know if something will work you need to compare the technical specifications of the usb chipset against the device you're using and keep in mind that the names of features could be inaccurate or outdated. Wow right?

    Now this problem is further compounded because we have a new USB4 standard that still continues to not support some of these USB3 devices because a required feature is still optional to implement.

    Now we have multiple generations of electronics that we cannot trust will work reliably with one another, even with a connector that is marketed as being universal. This is a major design regression.

    Historically a great deal of effort went into insuring compatibility to create a connector you can trust. Devices that do not use the USBC connector but instead use the traditional USBA connector can be trusted to work in some capacity in any configuration of USB 1, 2 and 3 in circumstances that don't exceed the power limitations of the chipset.

    Do note that USB1 and 2 are almost nothing alike and it was quite a feat to keep interoperability between them. It's senseless that they push a newer standard that still falls short of rectifying this problem in its entirety.

    This video also explores this problem better than I've described it.
