I find it kinda funny that the 2020 MacBook Air—my work machine (albeit with 16 GB of RAM)—is now described as being “still capable at handling basic tasks like a champ, including streaming video, browsing, and dealing with documents.”
I haven’t noticed #Emacs slowing down, so what do people do that needs so much more computing power!?

Now that the school year is coming to an end in many European countries, many children are receiving their school reports. | Jaap Burger
Now that the school year is coming to an end in many European countries, many children are receiving their school reports. What are they doing well and where can they improve? Have they learned from the curriculum and have they acted on previous recommendations? How are they doing compared to their peers? EU Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) does something similar for countries, their retail energy markets and the level of consumer participation. It's time for their annual …

Hybrid Dielectric-Graphene SERS Metasurfaces for Antibody Sensing
We present a hybrid surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) platform based on dielectric silicon metasurfaces integrated with functionalized graphene for the selective detection of biomolecules such as prolactin and SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. The metasurface comprises subwavelength silicon nanopillars that support Mie-type optical resonances, enabling strong electromagnetic field confinement with minimal heating and optical losses. Graphene monolayers are transferred onto the dielectric metasurf…

Direction Estimation of Sound Sources Using Microphone Arrays and Signal Strength
Sound-tracking refers to the process of determining the direction from which a sound originates, making it a fundamental component of sound source localization. This capability is essential in a variety of applications, including security systems, acoustic monitoring, and speaker tracking, where accurately identifying the direction of a sound source enables real-time responses, efficient resource allocation, and improved situational awareness. While sound-tracking is closely related to localiza…

Nach dem Ende von Windows Mixed Reality sind alte VR-Brillen bald wieder nutzbar

Damn it... Arch has detected each and every component of my Acer laptop, but it seems to be unsupported by tlp and I can't configure its battery usage.
I guess I have no choice but to use some script to do it manually. Let's see how I get out of this.
