I need to come up with an idea for a school project.
The requirements are:
1) Technology related
2) Includes software and/or sensors (preferably both)
3) It will be executed by a group of 5 second year CS students for a time-period of 4 months (as an orientation for the difficulty)
4) We are allowed to use everything done before us, but we have to add value in a way.
An example project: Smart mirror
Help out with creative ideas, please !

Hey /g/entiles,
Is Signal safe as a messenger? Is there any good messenger for communication between androids and iOS?

The situation with Signal is weird. Yes, it is potentially the most secure chat client normal people can use. But...there's a problem. It uses Google Cloud Messaging. There was a fork called LibreSignal which used Websockets, but the dev didn't approve of it, since they were using the Signal name, and HIS servers. Also, F-Droid isn't the most secure thing out there, so the dev pulled it out of there, too.
The fork is still out there, and it's actively updated, by the way.

Any reason my computer isn't connecting to the internet, even with the Ethernet cable plugged in and the network status saying connected?
Also every other device in the house is working fine.

>Apple today announced the release of a new hardbound book chronicling 20 years of Apple’s design, expressed through 450 photographs of past and current Apple products. “Designed by Apple in California,” which covers products from 1998’s iMac to 2015’s Apple Pencil, also documents the materials and techniques used by Apple’s design team over two decades of innovation.
>The book, like so many other Apple products, is available in two sizes: a 10.20" by 12.75" "Small" version that sells for $199 and a 13" by 16.25" "Large" version that costs $300.

So from Steve Jobs era good stuff, to post-Jobs era trash?
Why purchase a design book that's only about decline in design?

People like to shit on ipads but desu senpai these are absolutely fantastic. Barely using any of that 6000mAh + battery while offering me a truly high res screen and full browsing capabilities. I thought about taking my T61 or T420 with me but I can browse more comfortably with this ipad mini. As a package this thing is very well optimized.
Thank you based Jobs for making those nameless engineers make this thing

The battery life is awesome. I feel it lacks functionality vs a surface or even a surface knockoff that can be brought for less than half the price.
iOS has some serious design flaws in button placement and hot linking area sizes.

I'm going to microwave a liter of water for 1min, 2min, etc... and calculate the efficiency of my microwave.
How do I meassure the amount of electrical power that was used up by the microwave?
I got one voltagemeter but I don't want to mess it up :/

>one voltagemeter
you're gonna need two:
one in series for current, one in parallel for voltage.
or you could just trust that the voltage will be 110/230
or you could just trust the watt dial (lol)
>>
>>57526004
Hmm, yeah i kinda figured it would be the only way.
I'm pretty nervous about messing up either the microwave or the meter.
But I can't really find a way around it. But yeah the specs are an option :p

No. TVs have terrible input lag, to the point where even moving the mouse on the desktop feels awful.

Do they use GNU/Linux in Europe? Do they even use Apple computing devices?

I'm from fucking roman(ia), and no. People here, and in our neighbour Bulgaria, are using Windows 7, sometimes 8,1, and some 10, because it updated by itself. Hell, I'm personally running XP right now.
Never seen somebody using apple computers - iPhones do enjoy some popularity, but the rest of the apple products? No.
Apparently GNU/Linux enjoys more popularity in Switzerland, Germany, the baltic states and the nordic countries. I don't know why it is so popular with people in those countries - but I'm glad.

Frenchfag reporting.
As I suppose it is the case in the US, *nix is used by hacktivist teenagers and that's about it (except obviously for sysadmins)
Macs are used by the technology-impaired, the clueless, show-offs and the LGBT community in general (including designers, artists, etc)
Windows is used by normal people with normal jobs

Mac are hipster thing in Poland
iPhones are more popular as in Romania, but still it's considered to be for rich
Aaaaand Linux (oh sorry GNU/LINUX) is not very popular. I can say it's not very liked though.
Everyone works on bangblows 7, 8.1 or 10 or even XP or Shitvista
NOBODY EVEN KNOWS WHO RICHARDO EVEN IS
Oh, and they hate anime
