>fell for the Wix meme
I have wix for 3 more years and I'm looking to build something like this squarespace site: https://rayintakath.com/#/elemental-series/
Basically: gallery click project detailed project view prev/next navigation + gallery clone underneath.
I got close using the wix Multi-State Boxes, but their height is fixed, so short projects leave a huge empty space before the gallery. Couldn't find a way to set the individual states height automatically.
Is there even a way to do it or should I just pay for another service?

>>109544302
I can't picture it, can you post a picture of what you're doing or something?
The main section is a bunch of boxes alternating left/right, with padding. The gallery is a masonry layout with text appearing on hover

Basically I want to make navigation easier.
My site currently has a gallery that links to new pages for each project.
I want the user to move freely from page to page, using a "clone" of the main gallery below each expanded project.
Just like in this reference: https://rayintakath.com/#/elemental-series/
I could more or less achieve that with multistate boxes on wix, but the box does not conform its height to the different contents of each project.
Looking for alternatives.

I've been having this weird problem lately on youtube and only youtube. In the middle of almost every video, mostly the newer ones, there's an artifact in the middle of the video that renders the parts near it blocky when movement happens. This problem happens when viewing on the website, when viewing through mpv and when downloading with yt-dlp. Other video websites such as dailymotion and vkvideo have no such problem.

Are you saying that if I enable my VPN to a country that has strict pro privacy laws and get movies, I won't get any letters from my ISP?
Can they still flag me for getting movies?

Best way to undo code so it doesn't get detected for plagarism or AI? I can't find a solution and needed to use AI to find the answer.

>>109546630
Privacy laws have nothing to do with anything. ISPs in the US are required by law to do the 3 strike letter faggotry when they receive copyright complaints. If you use a VPN exit node in the states, the exit node operator's entire job is to say "common carrier" and throw copyright complaints in the bin. That's literally all a VPN does. The exit node can be in another country too except there they say "good luck bringing me to America retard"

So I got a 144hz monitor
Will reducing my display to 60hz actually change performance in any way or the display somehow not use any computing power by itself?
Let's assume there's a demanding game where you aim for 60fps instead of 144, would you see any difference?

>>109549428
With Freesync/Gsync the monitors hz matches whatever fps the game is. If the game is 60fps then it automatically drops from 144hz to 60hz.

>>109549428
on a lot of monitors you actually get worse blur running at 60hz instead of running at 120hz and only rendering 60fps

YouTube is hit or miss for me in this regard. More times than not though, I can watch without signing in.

I'm assuming you're trying to visit it on old Reddit? Reddit is rolling out a log in requirement for those visiting via old Reddit (supposedly to "fighting scrappers/spammers", something along those lines. If you get that message, you can still use the site, though at the cost of being on the ugly new UI. Messing with a VPN, it seems like they're selectively applying this restriction to some areas of the US. For now.

I'm setting up dual boot between linux and windows, trying this for the first time. Is there a way to have a common or shared profile for a browser between both OSes? If it could share tabs and extensions and violentmonkey scripts going from one OS to the other. Bonus points if it can seamlessly share 4chan XT settings as well.

Never fucking mind.

>>109553649
you could try leaving the firefox directory on the windows drive and then mount it and symlink it on the linux side. depending on where on linux your profiles are (something like ~/.mozilla/profiles) you could cd in that directory and then do a `ln -s /path/to/windows/profile .` I doubt that's gonna work but it's worth a try. alternatively if you dont mind wasting space you could rsync the directory from the windows partition to the linux partition. you'd have to ask the linux thread for specifics tho

It's similar to how you can detect how somebody wrote a paper or letter without having seen them. Due to a person's inherent personality, they'll use the same linguistic mannerisms over and over again.

I'm on linux, opensuse. AMD GPU.
For the past couple days, occasionally certain windows on my computer will flicker for a frame or two with a bar of RGB noise (picrel is roughly what it looks like). To my knowledge this bar doesn't extend across the entire screen unless it is a fullscreen application.
This usually only appears if there's a lot of movement on screen, like during a game or when switching between several images in an image viewer.
I've tried updating my drivers when I noticed this first happening, I tried toggling enable fullscreen tearing, I've tried toggling HDR, I've tried toggling 10 bit and 8 bit per pixel color, and nothing so far has fixed this.

Is this most likely to be hardware in my computer dying, my monitor dying, or me being in need of new drivers that aren't available yet?

Is there a way to spoof my firefox into acting like its chrome? I want to use some sites and stuff, but certain things only work on chrome. Like oshikoi.

Why is my wired speed specifically so shit?
I always just thought it was my internet and never thought much of it since it wasn't 'slow' just not super fast, but after seeing a phone game download 14gb in hardly any time at all over wifi I got suspicious and did some digging.

My download speed on wifi is over 5x speed I am getting (~94mbps with ethernet, to over 500 with wifi)

Quick searching all leads to the same canned reddit responses that don't seem likely - either a broken/bad cable or port. I've tested all 5 cables I could find (all cat5e or cat6), on two separate PCs as well as trying directly into the router vs the wall. The likelihood that across all those combinations is that the cable/ports are bad seems low to me. I'm sure its possible and I can order a brand new ethernet cable but there's a simpler fix I'd like to try it first.

I've also tinkered with a bunch in-windows network adapter settings that did nothing to change my speeds (some of them actually halved my upload so I reverted them). And all my other settings/limits in the hardware that I can see shouldn't be cucking me to 100mbps so I don't know why it is so slow.

where can I read about the current options for sideloading on ios?

How tf are you supposed to figure out what react hooks you're supposed to use to build what you want without AI? Like I don't have time to try every fucking combination. How tf do people figure this shit out by only looking at the official documentation without wasting your whole life by trying out everything through trial and error? Also the example are fucking outdated that I find on websites pr they just don't fit within the unique feature I'm trying to build.

>~94mbps with ethernet
Ethernet drops to 100Mbit/s when there's a pair missing. Your cable is faulty or it could be made for 100Mbit/s, one of those which have only two pairs connected.
>>109568635
Wi-Fi boxes that old couldn't in any way do 500 over Wi-Fi.

>>109568856
I think its more likely that the cables are made for 100Mbit/s since I've had them forever so they're all just pretty old but they still work so I just think its unlikely that all of them are faulty.
Is the plate thing something I need or can I just try buying a newer cable for like $10 and hope it works

If its a simple fix I'd like to do it. But if its not I'm probably better just swapping to wifi for downloads when I really benefit from the extra speed and then using a scuffed 90mbps for gaming/streaming shit

No it isn't. Cables haven't changed much since they started using catwire for Ethernet. They can all run 2.5G minimum. 100Mbit cables are ones that only use 2 pairs and have an oldschool telephone hooked up to the other 2.

for whatever reason the one feeding internet into the router was the one in the 100mbps port. Swapping those 2 ethernets fixed the whole thing

thanks for the help lads

>>109569270
Your internets come from a dumb modem with 100Mbit and 1000Mbit ports and after the modem comes a router? Post the gear.

>>109569306
I might just be using old terms I'm too stupid for this shit
there's the main gateway device from the isp (I call it the modem, it looks like a space heater) with several ports, 2 ports were in use and upon logging in one showed 100mbps the other 1000
Then there's a network switch (I call the router) that has like 10 ports that feeds internet into wall jacks in different rooms. The switch has lights that indicate if they are getting 10mbps, 100mbps, or 1000mbps and all the ports with an active ethernet were showing 100mbps light
So I just swapped the modem cables

>>109569358
Right. The thing your ISP gave is a modem+router combo, with Wi-Fi I assume. A switch is just a switch, it doesn't even speak IP nor care for it, it delivers Ethernet frames around.

>>109569392
Makes sense, if it works it works I guess. I never really had an issue like I said at the very start I didn't even notice it until I randomly saw how fast something downloaded on my phone compared to what I was getting on steam.
I'm guessing that the other port the 1000mbps was initially feeding is for the TV stuff (since my wifi/phone still gets the same good rates it was before I swapped them). And I don't really use that very often outside of sports but I can always swap it back if its an issue

>explain passkeys like I'm a drooling retard
Your phone's PIN is something you know
Your phone is something you have
A passkey satisfies these two factors by making your use your pin (or fingerprint) with your phone at the time of login to prove you are you

Someone far away can know your phones PIN but they don't have your phone with them, so they don't authenticate
someone can steal your phone but that doesn't mean they know your pin so they can't authenticate
>do I need a physical yubikey or whatever
no, you can use one but you can also use a phone, or a laptop, or a password manager
>what happens if I lose the yubikey or the device on which I first set the passkey up
passkey is never the only way in, you still have multiple backup options depending on the site, they will have you set up backup options before they allow you to login with a passkey
>why is it more secure than me using a password manager and TOTP 2FA on a different device
it is equivalent security but isn't vulnerable to phishing like TOTP, some people still give out their TOTP over the phone when talking to what they think is a support rep
>I'm not retarded and never fell for a phising attempt
You can keep using TOTP, but passkeys do have the small advantage of not having to type your password

Case you want your mail client to render HTML isn't big and fat the necessary evil?
>>109577761
Haven't used VPNs lately but back in the day I created separate routing table entries just for 4chins.
The thing is when your VPN is on you still got connectivity to your usual internet gateway (home router), it's just that only the VPN endpoint is routed thru it. Then the so called default gateway is set to whatever the virtual VPN endpoint is. Now what I did was I added the two (AFAIK there was only 2) 4channel IPs to also go thru the usual internet gateway.
How to do all that is highly OS specific, I was using Linux and I did some configuration with systemd-networkd.

>>109578140
>Case you want your mail client to render HTML isn't big and fat the necessary evil?
claws-mail has three options for html rendering, well four if you count "none". dillo, litehtml, and webkit. webkit is a full-featured html renderer so you can use that plugin if you want full html support. i don't use any of them since i don't care for html support

>>109577761
Split tunneling just means they created a separate network namespace for the VPN connection. You can do that yourself. Or get a different provider client that does it for you. Using VPN for everything by default is dumb anyway unless you're stuck on super sketchy dorm wifi or something.

>>109578140

Doesn't strictly prevent normal and VPN traffic from mixing.

Does picrel look like an elephant to you?
>>109579957
Who are you quoting?
Anyway, that's what I said, you can throw in any arbitrary IP blocks and tell them to go thru any arbitrary gateway.
Another example: I had a beefy 4G and super slow DSL but the DSL had much better ping. What I did I took both in use, used the 4G router as my default gateway (0.0.0.0/0) but routed my DNS (a specific block) thru the DSL router. (also I threw in 4channel thru the DSL as posting pics was denied from mobile internets)
Moral of the story is it's completely irrelevant which connection or adapter is "real" or not. You can mix VPN or multiple real gateways, OS just reads the table and makes a routing decision based on it.

>>109580004
It's kind of a bullshit field. You're basically manufacturing excuses for bad security practice by performing rituals and reciting cybersec liturgy when anyone asks questions.
>can't someone in the 3rd world do this over the internet
A lot of times, yes.

>>109580031
If you're using a VPN presumably you have a reason. Like you want to guarantee bittorrent traffic won't leak onto your normal internet connection. Default routes won't do this because your OS will start looking at non-default routes when the default connection becomes unresponsive.
>but i have a kill swi-
That shit doesn't work either.

>>109580127
Right. The problem is the VPN software tends to revert back to the "normal" routes after the VPN disconnects which is kinda bad IMO. If the connectivity stayed broken there would be no leakage.

If you have to decide between using a credit card directly or through paypal, is there an obviously worst option privacy-wise?
Theoretically I think paypal would be better if you could trust it, but its hardly trust worthy.
In the end both could be linked to your identity, so maybe this is a toss-up, but I wonder if there's a clearly better and worse option.

How risky is it to dl movies directly? There are certain pages on twitter that share dl links to really high quality stuff.
I'm less concerned about malware because I've heard it's impossible to hide in video files. But my country is notoriously harsh on consuming pirated media, which is why I avoided torrenting so far. Can dl links get you in trouble aswell?

>>109580517
You don't have any privacy in either scenario. You shouldn't use PayPal because it's a shit company.

>>109580523
You should learn about your local laws. DDL is popular in America because downloaders can't be held liable.
>I'm less concerned about malware because I've heard it's impossible to hide in video files
Not impossible but rare. DDL users are who gets hit when there is an exploit.

>>109580523
Probably not. I'd suggest learning more about XDCC. It's an old fashioned way to pirate. I was doing it before torrents ever existed. But there are XDCC bots with high quality movies out there and since it's one way it's pretty safe. I had a friend in Germany who was really into it and I was surprised he was doing it instead of torrenting but it makes sense with their cucked laws.

>>109580528
I know, but I reckon there's a chance for one being much worse than the other. I just didn't know if that was the case and if so, which one.

That's the name they gave to the specific kind of bots, what's really happening is just file sending on IRC. Then there was the "fileserver" way of getting files, it's technically all the same.

>>109580517
A credit card is better if paypal is the other option. Paypal can close your account anytime without good reason and they have strict rules against all sorts of purchases. Both are linked to your identity and everything is traced but it's doubled if you go with paypal.

>>109580786
Well XDCC has it's own set of commands and everything, yeah it's just a bot sending you files over DCC on IRC though. Usually running on iroffer. In the old days this was because bandwidth was so scarce so hacked machines were needed to distribute warez. Now you can rent servers cheap so they're usually legit.

I don't know shit about technology so I'm not quite sure how to word this question; please be patient with me and answer it like I'm borderline tech illiterate.

From what I understand, hardware requirements for software standards have been gradually increasing since forever. 4GB RAM was monstrous for a computer in 2000. By 2010, it was pretty standard. Nowadays it's not enough even for a cellphone.
Storage capacity works the same way. 512GB of storage space would've been ridiculous in 2000. By 2010 it was merely 'pretty solid.' Nowadays it's just considered the bare minimum for a laptop depending on the use case. I assume that in 10 years it will be laughable.
So on and so forth. Processing power, battery capacity, camera specs, it's all the same behavior. Electronics seem to observe a kind of inflation the way currency does.

What happens when we reach the upper limits of density with these types of components? Like what happens when it becomes physically impossible, not just prohibitively difficult or expensive, to build parts that can outperform generations prior in the same footprint or smaller? What do we do then? I hope I'm making sense here

The sound disappears if I set it to high RPM for a short time and doesn't return for hours/days. I cleaned the fan, nothing is touching its blades and outside the occasional chirping it seems to be working just fine. Any ideas what it could be or what else I could check?

I'm about to start making a pi hole. I got everything ready but read that it eats through sd cards eventually. So I randomly found an sd card in an old phone and it made me wonder. Can I somehow use the storage space or the phone itself even for a pi hole...or any other cool projects? It just lays there doing nothing anyway

>>109585739
I think if you don't have root you might struggle to bind to port 53 and even using termux wouldn't help. But you could have some ultra dumb and jank setup where you have a TCP proxy on the pi going to a DNS server running on some other port on the phone.

Probably the smarter thing is to look into setting up a ramdisk, doing most of the read/write operations for your pi hole there, and doing periodic backups to the SD card.

I booted clonezilla and the cloning process wouldn't even start displaying a message about mismatched GPT and MBR data, so I go and double-check on Windows what partition layout it is using, it's MBR. Then I launch clonezillas command line, run

get

other utilities.
Blank out MBR? (Y/N): n
MBR is unchanged. You may need to delete an EFI GPT (0xEE) partition
with fdisk or another tool. 

After doing this, I reboot to confirm everythings working before proceeding with the cloning process. Windows 10 doesn't boot anymore (just black screen with blinking prompt but doesn't register input). However the partitions on the disk remain unchanged and I can pull data out of it. The PC is really old it's a 2008~ HP mini desktop with a Pentium Dual-Core E5300 (it is a relatives PC) so I am almost sure this is not an EFI/UEFI issue because this computer is too old for that. Also W10 was installed/upgraded on top of W7 that originally came with the computer.

How do I fix this /g/? I'll say that my pc skills are pretty damn rusty, on my personal computers I have w7, w10 and debian that I installed a looong time ago. Something I noticed was that my unc pc would boot up in seconds despite the oldass e5300, I know Windows 10 can use some sort of rapid/hyprid sleep booting process so I am almost sure I somehow messed up with it, or Windows say the GUID-partitions change and refuses to boot.

If other audio files not from your CDs are fine try using https://github.com/cyanreg/cyanrip or as a last resort EAC in wine

>>109587334
It is a job primed for outsourcing. Unless you get picked up by some government contractor that can't hire foreigners.

On the other PC I used the same audio player, in this case Strawberry and MPV, with no crackling.

Just tried playing a DVD and it works and rips completely fine. The problem is just with CDs

Why doesn't this shit just work?
The only demos where I've seen it work properly is HDR photos like the link below and videos in YouTube:
https://www.wide-gamut.com/test/image-hdr

But when I enable it it washes out all SDR content making it look unusable, when I try it in a game the game at best looks exactly the same as in SDR.
Even on my PS5 which should be as plug-and-play as possible I calibrate the screen and the UI looks dark and games look worse than SDR.

>>109588637
Again, try using software that can actually rip a CD accurately. See if it verifies with accuraterip or the cuetools db.

>>109588664
When it's done ripping this dvd I'll try with Whipper.

Insane demand for more compute, storage and RAM from consumers leads to coping by trying to shove as much of it into a box as you can I guess. Or trying to convince them to rent it once the AI shit tapers off from the hype cycle and hyperscaler capacity lays dormant.

I'm trying Whipper but it's taking ages just to rip a single song and read the table of contents. I don't think this is how it's supposed to go.

Dumbass, there is nothing wrong with the concept of HDR and having more than 256 steps of brightness, I'm asking why the implementation is so shit.

>>109589016
Are you sure your display even supports HDR? Because what you are describing sounds like HDR content when viewed on a non-HDR display.

Will AI-Powered Quantum Computers ever be capable of Artificial Quantum Intelligence?

>>109589016
there's nothing wrong with the concept of 3D either but in practice it still ends up being a stupid gimmick you've literally proved this with HDR yourself for yourself with your own testing at best it it ends up looking about the same as SDR 99% of the time only time it ends up being even remotely impressive is when used with content tailor made purely for HDR like the demo images

It's an OLED TV, it supports HDR, and youtube demos and HDR images such as those on the website I linked work fine.
But SDR content looks like shit and games look at best the same as on SDR, that's the part I don't understand, obviously the tech can work.

i need a rec for a ground loop isolator/hum eliminator. there's a lot of these on the market and they look like garbage.

if i plug my amp and speakers into the same outlet as my PC i get horrible ground noise through the speakers. the only solution i have was to run a cable around the room to a different outlet specifically for my amp/speakers. the PC soundcard output is a standard 3.5mm to RCA on my amp.

i'm curious specifically how these affect sound quality and volume. i wouldn't want something that simply acts like a noise filter.

on the market i see a difference in quality for these things, the lower end seem to be for car stereos and basic bitch TV setups, but i'm more concerned about protecting the quality of my stereo audio, without any interest in paying for audiophile snake oil.

>>109588965
It still hasn't finished ripping one song so I just stopped the thing. There's something wrong with CD reading and only CD reading.

>>109589298
If the CD is not badly damaged and you're not getting at least 0.5x something is definitely wrong.

>>109589326
I tried multiple CDs, both brand new and old. It's so weird because DVDs play perfectly fine, it's just CD playback that's crackly and fucked, and ripping is slow.

I've been using sxiv for like a decade now, and it's basically perfect. But I just got a high-DPI laptop for the first time, and sxiv's thumbnails are tiny and cannot zoom in properly, so it's not really usable anymore.
I might just fork/patch it to fix this, but while I'm at it, is there anything strictly better I should consider switching to instead?

My bitch of a sister dropped the aging laptop I let her borrow and I'm in the market. Mostly looking for a general purpose machine with some gaming. Mostly FFXIV, perhaps some Helldivers 2, LoL when I fall off the wagon, and any random cheap indie shit that my friends want to try out. Maybe a bitch of video editing but nothing in 4k. Pound for pound is this a good buy? Smells right at a glance but I'm not terribly knowledgeable about laptop complications. Mostly a desktop guy.

PC kept BSOD'ing for nvlddmkm.sys, I tried booting into safe mode to uninstall nvidia drivers and reinstall latest driver via usb but it BSOD in the middle of install. I don't know what to do at this point, computer seems fubar. Ideas or recommendations?

My laptop has a smart card reader. Is there anything interesting I could do with it besides using it for its intended purpose (not quite sure what exactly is the intended purpose desu. Scanning physical passkey)?

Click and drag for importing downloaders doesn't work from my experience as well. Copy and paste is a hit or miss. I just file browsed to import most of them.

>>109591425
The Radeon 780M is integrated graphics, which will barely do lowest for helldivers 2 even with upscaling enabled

>>109591434
Check Windows event viewer for any errors and see if they are related to anything.

Could be bad memory - install memtest86 to a usb and run it for a while

>>109591776
if it is the ram you could try to reduce the memory clock speeds and see if that fixes it instead of buying more

I'll give it a shot next round in safemode (this shit takes like 40 minutes going through reboots fml)

>>109591799
Is it on a hard drive? You could try a disk check too

>>109591839
Yeah, old shitty 500gb seagate. I tried to clone it to a 1TB hdd I had laying around temporarily while I waited for an SSD to arrive but these BSOD problems happened right at the same time that the clone attempt failed and I had to go back to the OG drive.

No problem. Got a Hydrus question myself, hopefully another anon can answer. Is there a way to bulk download images? I use the Firefox extension to download from Danbooru, but it's limited to 24 images at a time, which the default amount of images displayed per page. I tried changing the settings on Danbooru to 200 images displayed per page, but the extension still downloaded 24. There has to be a way to download more than 25 at a time, I don't want to manually go through each page and clicking the extension for each one.

You can scan cards and maybe even pull some info from them. My debit card for example tells my name, currency, expiration date among other things.
There's this (outdated) Linux program called CardPeek, idk about else. It basically comes with a bunch of scripts meant for communicating with various type of cards. You can try SIM cards for example if you glue them back into the full frame. (note that the frame shouldn't have the gap between the full size and mini/micro/nano, it can break your card reader by bending the contact pads!)
>not quite sure what exactly is the intended purpose desu. Scanning physical passkey
>physical passkey
It's a standard card form which all cards use. In my country I can log into some (most) government services with my ID card. You configure your browser for a security device and then enter the ID card's PIN when asked.

why do appimage, exe, etc icons show up on dolphin, but not thunar? how can i get them to show up? running xfce on debian

>>109591368
Yes, +6. EAC doesn't even recognize the key disk for accuraterip with a cd i know works.

>>109594073
it might need a different thumbnailer plugin compatible with thunar. the one dolphin uses is probably something designed for kde/qt programs instead of gtk ones

>>109591590
smartcards are often used for security stuff, like logging into a machine or providing an encrypted volume key

>>109594097
I also tried changing power supply cables. Nothing.
I'm thinking it has something to do with the decoding itself.

Firefox is bugging out on me. I use 89, because they completely fucked the browser after this point.

It now uses 100% CPU when open, often can't even load any pages, and I can't even run the built in refresh because it won't close by itself and will stay running until I kill it with task manager.

I have completely given up. I tried every possible troubleshooting to pinpoint the cause (sata cable, power supply, disk, operating system) and the only plausible one is motherboard sata controller or the cpu (which is a Ryzen 5 9600X), but it's still so bizarre. I'll just suck it up and not use CDs i guess. Maybe i'll buy one of those usb drives and if that doesn't work i'll kill myself.

>>109595453
Or just find some alternative machine to rip them with? My "home server" is a $20 e-waste HP Thin Client and I have a very minimal XFCE setup on it that I only bring up when I want to rip CDs with EAC in wine using an external drive.

I have a domain I'm using to connect to my home server when I'm not at home, self hosted through caddy for which I have several subdomains for the various services, so like jellyfin.server.com, radarr.server.com and so on. It works just fine, except for the fact I can't connect to it when I'm within my home network (unless I'm using a vpn), and I have to use the local ip instead. Is there anything I can do to always connect with the website name, rather than to use the local ip of the machine? Of course I have a static ip

>>109595645
Self hosted home DNS server (use DNS over HTTPS) that always returns the private IP for those domains to be used on your home network.

>>109595694
Basically something like AdGuard home?

>>109595706
If blocking ads is something you want to do yes. I'm not doing that so I think I just use https://docs.pi-hole.net/guides/dns/cloudflared/ plus a setup with dnsmasq to cache lookups and I just manually edit /etc/hosts for anything I want to override. The pi-hole guide says cloudflared is deprecated so you might want to find something else that proxies DoH to regular DNS.

They are mainly an older form of picrel. A device that holds private keys and never share them but does various tasks with them.
Although picrels have universal use cases while smart cards don't.

Does it do it if you use another profile? (about:profiles or the top right user menu)

Smart cards are more or less special snowflake proprietary hardware while USB security keys are universal. While only government web services support the national ID cards, private sector services support USB keys. Roughly speaking.

>>109596290
i see, i don't even know the name of the thing you pictured.
from your post am i to assume smartcards are proprietary while what you posted are an open standard that does the same or very similar thing?

you say /the/ national id cards but i don't know what that refers to, maybe that means something to anyone in another nation than me. i'm not so oblivious to think that it's assumed people here are from the USA, but since i'm not from the usa, a usa national id card is not something i've heard of.

Again, the idea is the same: you got a device that holds private keys and does cryptography with it, mostly authentication. Phone's SIM does this to authenticate to a cell tower and a credit card does this by authenticating to the bank.
Then there's the USB security key that can be used to authenticate to a web service that supports it. Also some operating systems have support for authenticating the user to administrative privileges via the USB key. (with Linux I can "sudo" with the key)
>you say /the/ national id cards but i don't know what that refers to, maybe that means something to anyone in another nation than me
Not sure how many countries do it but there are various European countries with chip IDs. It's not very popular though as ID'ing with online baking has been the thing since smartphones got popular.

Why is it so hard to find wireless headphones with audio mixing from dongle + bluetooth? there doesn't seem to be a term for it, closest I can think of is multipoint but that's for multibluetooth connection. I want headphones that I can hear stuff from my computer and phone simultaneously, a lot of things that has a dongle has more of a hotswap where you hear either one or another.
