    Yes, if it only contains files then it won't do anything.

    So this utility given a directory or path, will move randomly files in subdirectories and will move subdirectories randomly too. CAREFUL, if given system directory it will probably trash the system, equivalent of doing `rm -rf /`, except all the files are still there! :) I don't know why I came up with this idea nor if its original but its mine. You might ask, whats the use case, well that's an interesting question, you know why? Because... 🏃 (Of course, I'm open to feedback.)

    Rule 4: No association with or reference to crypto“currencies” because these are greed incentivizing pyramid schemes.

    Aurora accepts cryptocurrencies as donations. And F-Droid also did but apparently its on hold.

    Web solutions allow you to have an account and can keep track of those things. There are Android apps like Clipious that connect to the web instsnces so it keeps in sync with what you watch on your browser.

    RE: Help with old camera battery

    What I ended up doing was making my own battery by using 2x18650 connected in series to get the 6V the camcorder needed and a buck converter and worked like charm. I didn't want to end up buying already "built" batteries from a seller in Aliexpress. Here I wrote a little more about it with images. https://0x00.cl/blog/2023/making-my-own-battery/

    Help with old camera battery

    Hello, I have an old sony camera that has an old Ni-Cd battery (6V 3000mAh) and of course now the charge doesn't last long. They do sell "new" batteries for it but its from Aliexpress and I don't want to rely on 1 not so reputable seller incase I need a new one. So I wanted to repair it and "upgrade" it myself, but im no electrician or anything I just like to tinker with electronics so I had a few questions. The battery and camera only have 2 connections, positive (+) and negative (-). I saw on aliexpress that they sell a [6V 4200mAh battery pack](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004745627376.html), which is made of 5xAA (1.2V) Ni-Mh rechargable batteries. Would it be as simple as that, if I connect the positive and negative to the corresponding ones on the old camera it should work? Is there anything else I should take into consideration? EDIT: The camera Is a Sony CCD-TR403 EDIT2: or would it be better to build my own battery pack with 18650

    Well, the tab key was created to avoid repeatedly having to press space to create an indentation, but that was on typewritters, so either way, you can use spaces or tab key to indent text.

    Now text editors can transform tab character ('\t') to desired amount of spaces, and I think the problem with using tab characters in code ('\t') is that system may have different configurations for the amount of space a tab char takes, making it look inconsistent on different systems, while space char is pretty much standard on every system.

    Entertainment. Just like movies tell you a story and you can put in a sentence the plot of the movie.

    By that logic, Why even make a video if you can write it in a sentence.

    I skimmed through the article and I'm surprised the author at no point mentions the "drama" or the discussion the founder of privacytoolsio had with the mantainers of the website when they decided to move to privacyguides. To me it lost reputation after that.

    Why not use a more "generic" extension, a redirector. You can redirect anything to anywhere.

    How about https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/redirector/

    I haven't vetted it, but looks good

    Servers. There's going to be more people, more people that have access to technology and internet and a lot of services are online.

    Not only that, but look at how big data centers, how much cooling they need (They need a LOT of water), it could make it more efficient.

    But to be fair this article writes very little about something that is just a proof of concept.

    Why do you need this when you can use simple wired headphones?

    Clearly because of wires and just about why wireless options exist about anything... It's not like wireless headphones are something new, there is clearly people buying them and cheaper options have appeared than when they first came out.
