Just because the US changing its mind about Russia changes NATO's dynamic as a whole does not mean that the Baltic states are immediately in danger. Poland and Finland are both nearby NATO countries that have experienced Russia's

Thing that's hard to communicate is that Vista was moving away from how older versions of Windows rendered their desktop and past art styles. With Pinball originally from Windows 95, porting it to leverage Vista's new graphics par

That model of Surface is nearing almost 8 years old by now. Not current by my standards. I'm thinking about the chance of existing tooling still being around to make a screen and slap into a laptop rather than if it existed at one poin

It's likely chosen for cost. There's a couple of brand new fairly cheap laptops with exactly the same screens on paper and a few other similar sized laptops that are in the ballpark. Skimming Google, there are pretty much are no l

Issue is that for domestication to be possible, there has to be a preexisting social structure like herding, colonies, or packs. If it's too weak or non existent, there's no chance that domestication is possible. Having docile exa

Word is that China makes getting a license plate for an ICE extremely hard to get, while EVs get basically a free pass. I don't know about any direct subsidies but I wouldn't doubt that there's something there.

This is real. There's a bunch of federal vehicles that don't have cats in them, or the equivalent systems for diesel from the factory. They are exempt from emissions standards.

They would likely have to be modified to meet new safety, emissions, anti theft, etc standards to be able to sell them in the US... In other words, it would be a completely new car. Even old designs with a new date of manufacture have to me

Considering that Source is ancient and likely hasn't gotten an update from at least 2013 for TF2, the bar is low for how complete an engine needs to be for level comparisons.

I've used Limine on one of my machines for a good while now. It is quite simply, a UEFI executable where you can point to something bigger, be it another bootloader or a kernel. Removing filesystem support is more or less an inconvenie

NAT was invented to connect entire businesses to the internet that would otherwise have to manually reconfigure every single device for the internet. Keeping IPv4 going amidst address exhaustion going was a lucky coincidence of it.

Serious questions: why and what's the point? You can pretty much mold Linux into whatever you want.

Problem is that from what I've read, the system firmware is embedded in a module that also serves as WiFi. There is a chance that the firmware could be hacked to enable WPA2, but probably not WPA3.

My theory is that a lot of auto mechanics are very mechanically minded, so if the problems start being electrical they don't have the equipment or the skill set to solve the issue beyond simple power. I saw a video the other day where

Nobody thought that they could push 50A at 12V through half the connector. It's management wanting to push industrial design as opposed to safety. They made a new connector borrowing from an already existing design, pushed up the on pa

IIRC my X13s has experimental right next to booting Linux, and I doubt any of the newer models are better. Honestly not a great sign even though Windows forced the use of UEFI.

Very much true. A higher switching frequency means that a smaller transformer is needed for a given power load. In reference to consumer power supplies, only reason why GaN power bricks are any smaller than normal is because GaN can be run

If a 64 bit ARM/x86 hegemony is a big concern, then why not drop i386 and go with RISC-V? There's both a 32 and 64 bit variants, and a free emulator. Also, it's more useful academically and practically.
