Reply to Got a tech question or want to discuss tech? Bi-Weekly /r/Technology Tech Support / General Discussion Thread by veritanuda

Ok at work the other day, I went into a meeting room and someone had left a single apple earbug in there. I figured they forgot it, and placed it in a visible place at the office.

Weirdly the next day I overheard a colleague saying he found an earbud in the same meeting room and wondering what to do with it.

This is a room typically used to discuss different company aspects that are not knowledge to most employees.

Question 1: can someone put an earbud in a meeting room and listen to conversations from outside?

Question 2: if yes, and if it I find this earbud there again, is there a way to locate the owner can be identified?

Reply to comment by informallory in Reddit cracked down on revenge porn, creepshots with twofold spike in permabans by thawingSumTendies

Is fake rape porn illegal if its acting? And not actually real rape? Because there's movies out there where people get killed but that's acting and it's not illegal to show a movie which depicts illegal acts.

I understand it won't be to most peoples tastes but of those you mention jailbait is the only one I can see that should be banned because it's of minors. The rest is perhaps morally iffy but not legally

Reply to comment by open_door_policy in Microsoft still doesn't know what to do with its messaging apps. Just look at Skype and Teams. by redhatGizmo

Teams is much better than it used to be. Yeah it's a resource hog and some of its features are odd (like the notifications for reactions) but on the whole I actually quite like it. I remember back when you could only have one window at a time and when you couldn't pop out content--those additions have been great. Overall, 7.5/10. Its deficiencies are greatly exaggerated.

Reply to $39 Cooler Master case turns your old Framework Laptop parts into a tiny PC by TradingAllIn

I think it would be better if we had a trade-in option. You trade in your old motherboard for a xx% off of your new motherboard, then the company could use those boards on refurbished products or sold them in their store as second-hand items. If the board is broken beyond repair, the company could send them to professional companies that deal with e-waste.

The old boards simply would do more in their hands compared to ordinary users.
