Use APs that are designed for group deployment. Deploying Ubiquiti's APs in managed (as opposed to standalone) mode makes this easy; even iPhones will transparently be passed from one AP to the next. I agree, though, the OSX/iOS r

It's actually because of ClearType that I hate screwing with layout. This doesn't really effect the iPhone, but a lot of apps completely ignore your intended subpixel layout . Windows or X/Wayland can be set correctly, and

Neat, but I kinda wish manufacturers would quit making cursed displays like this. Either follow the existing convention, or try your best to hide the subpixels entirely.

Yes, 802.11ax added all the technology required to allow subchannel slicing in both the time and frequency domains. Lets say you had a 5ghz 8x8 160mhz AP (maximum allowable by spec): if all you had were 1x1 20mhz clients, you could theoreti

Bootcamp is a joke. Every Intel Mac runs a complete EFI impl based on the stock Intel one, and can just boot Windows without Bootcamp. Also the only way to install using GPT, as Bootcamp's bootloader hides the GPT header (and OSX uses

Is every NYC mayor an outright criminal, trying to transfer the wealth from Americans to their rich real estate buddies? Adams is doing it right now. de Blasio did it. Bloomberg was a Bloomberg, and did it. Giuliani is so crooked that pos

I was using that for years. Apple hates their own customers for not having written that themselves, and forcing us to use some half-assed driver included in Bootcamp that made the whole thing seem state-of-the-art circa Windows 98. That s

People who use Chrome, or any Chrome-based browser, are inherently self-destructive and greatly confused. Chrome, and Chrome-based browsers, perform worse, are buggier on; especially on non-Nvidia drivers and especially on OSes other than W

It's even neck in neck in titles where Nvidia paid the developers to trash the console optimized path (which would have been ported as an identical DX12 path), and write an entirely new, much slower, DX11 path. Why? Because Nvidia'

Honestly, I'm not surprised. Bluetooth is an unsecured microcontroller that does not run an open source firmware (and yes, I'm aware, the CVE is partially enabled by the software stack as well). By definition, that is a security n

Qualcomm owns patents on an international standard. They sued Apple and arguably won, although they settled out of court. Apple had bought Intel's LTE unit and the patents that came with it, and Qualcomm and Intel both licensed patents

Arguably, any system that uses a Qualcomm SoC is not secure: either they do it on purpose, or they truly are incompetent, or it is a mix of both. No Qualcomm phone I've ever owned I've been truly happy with from the SoC SDK perspe

It isn't about "sufficient contact". Google knows exactly who to call at any of these companies, and those people will pick up the phone when they see Google is the one calling. Qualcomm actively botches the security of their

You mean Vega. Volta is a Nvidia arch. Vega's marketing pushed Nvidia to make what is ending up to be the best product series they will ever make: series 10. That isn't much of a joke, it scared the shit out of Nvidia, and they bl
