Living Room / Fingerprint sensor under screen: does it work well?
« Last post by kalos on July 03, 2019, 03:26 AM »
Hello!

I like the idea of the whole mobile phone screen to be a fingerprint sensor.

However, I read somewhere that you need to click on specific area of the screen and you need to wait for a percentage to go to 100% before you lift your finger.

Is that the case for every such phone?

I want it to work really fast.

Thanks!

Living Room / Re: Is it possible to change the buttons in Motorola G7?
« Last post by kalos on June 28, 2019, 10:47 AM »
An option that might be of interest:
the G7 also has one button navigation, not sure how it works, you could let is know if you try it.

Yes I tried it, I don't like it. It's slower to slide to go back when you can just tap.

I used to have PowerCalc but it seems is no longer available.
I would like it to be fully scientific and to show parentheses.

Any idea?

Living Room / Monitor Web Usage
« Last post by kalos on June 06, 2019, 09:47 AM »
Hello!

A department at work has several employees and they work on processing files on a sharepoint website.

I want to track how long they take viewing/working on a specific webpage to measure productivity.

Do you know an easy IE plugin to log webpages/urls and time spent on them?

Or could I do that at the network level e.g. with a sniffer or something (I do not have such access though)?

Thanks!

Are you actually asking about a phone-screen, pc-screen or screens in general?
-Ath (May 19, 2019, 08:09 AM)

Phone screen and reading texts mainly or websites (not sure if it makes a difference)

« Last post by kalos on May 19, 2019, 06:43 AM »
Hello!

Which screen spec is the most important for less eye tiring viewing?

A phone has high contrast but low pixel density and I wonder which is more important given that I read alot on the screen and my eyes get tired. Or anything else I should look for?

Thanks!

If you get a high-speed SD card, it's pretty good.  I use one in my surface and XPS, as on both of those I can't upgrade the hard drive or it's the largest capacity.  I don't notice a difference in most day to day tasks.

Which you consider high speed?

Living Room / How to expand laptop storage?
« Last post by kalos on May 06, 2019, 06:55 AM »
Hello!

I want to expand my medicre 128GB laptop storage.
I bought a 128GB USB but I need more and I don't find cheap USB that are compact so that I have them always connected.

My next guess is an SD card.

I found some reasonable deals:
https://www.amazon.c...Memory/dp/B07FBB8K9N
https://www.amazon.c...dapter/dp/B07N31KRZL
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07F2D15MK
https://www.amazon.c...dapter/dp/B00V62XBQQ
https://www.amazon.c...rmance/dp/B073JY5T7T
https://www.amazon.c...dapter/dp/B012PKVLJQ

Are they reliable? Can they stay connected for years and act like a hard drive?
Should I go for a microSD with adapter or an SD?

thanks!

I see my Google backup is ON and there is a gmail account of mine as a backup account.

Shall I assume that if I login to my new phone with that gmail account, it will restore everything?

Can I check that?

Unfortunately I use apps that don't work if the phone is rooted.

Is there any other solution?

By the way, I cannot find this Google function?

Hello!

I log in to a remote desktop via Citrix and after some inactivity it locks itself.

Is there a way to auto-ping regularly it so that it stays active?

Living Room / How to calculate the area of a graph?
« Last post by kalos on March 05, 2019, 05:51 PM »
Hello

I have this graph and I want to calculate the amount in grams of glucose that is above the straight line of 100mg/dl for the whole period of about 5h.

https://img.medscape...s/gavin/slide021.gif

I think I need to calculate the area of the triangle, but this will give me a unit of mg/dL x hours which does not make sense.

Can anyone advise me please?

Thanks!

Hello!

Shall I assume that Powershell is the best tool to do the above?

I want to copy specific cells from specific sheet in a specific excel document, into a word document, format it properly and email the formatted text to a specific email address at specific time every day.

Is it going to be huge coding to do that?

Can I do all these within MS Office?

Any hints?
