I keep hearing this vague claim that the cars can be started with a usb key. How does this work? Is there a usb port that reads some secret file off the USB key? Is it just the USB plug shape that fits somewhere in the car that forces it to

I bought a 5 packs of wired earbuds for 6 bucks and they work just fine. I expected them to crumble to dust in a few weeks but I'm still on my first one several months later. Sound quality is fine for YouTube (main thing I use them for

Notifications are rare because you need to be far enough from the epicenter that the difference between the speed of the earthquake (speed of sound in rock) and the speed of the notification (speed of light through the internet) is great en

Airguard can still see devices with rotating MACs. They just pollute the detection list a bit and draw attention to themselves.

There are third party apps that will see right through your "secret stalking mode". Basically, since apple doesn't give a damn about android users, they just unleashed airtags on the world with no way to be alerted you are be

Why would anyone want to use a grungy, slow charging public usb port and be stuck in some place for however long it takes to get frustrated that it isn't filling your phone fast enough? Get a power bank. They are cheap and even the lar

People have been burned enough times by now that any fly-by-night that shows up promising free storage gets taken with a huge grain of salt. Why would I upload my data for you to hold for free if history shows you are going to be gone in 6

The very idea that a device in my pocket can make noise without my direct interaction is absurd. I haven't had an acoustic ringtone in over 20 years.

Hardware is just a thing for software to run on. These aren't computers where you can just run your own stuff (hopefully). These are phones with embedded firmware and an OS that almost no consumer will change. We can call it hardware b

How long does that trip take in a tesla? Charging included. When I need to make that trip (with more than one person. If just one traveler it's cheaper to fly) I just rent a gas car and can make the trip in just over 5 hours. I'd

Ah yes, in contrast to the Florida swamps with their famously deep water tables... /s NASA in Florida builds a hill to house the flame trench and puts the launch pad on top. Same should be done in Texas.

You are mixing several unrelated concepts. The cryptography export restriction was a US initiative with obvious reasons. The software bans I am talking about are from the Chinese side. For example China's bans on sites like google. Wha

Iraqis were murdered by other Arabs under cover of the chaos kicked off by Americans being there. Being murdered proximally to Americans is very different from being murdered BY Americans (but still bad).
