I don't have those on my Dell XPS13 Developer Edition 9370 either. Would be interesting to know which chipsets support it.

Reminds me of childhood holidays in county Wexford. We’d always be told it’d been constant sunshine the week before… as we stared out the window at the driving rain. Wexford’s ace though so we never really minded. ;)

I notice that macOS optimises charging for this scenario. Keeping the battery under 80% charge if you rarely disconnect it. I’m surprised that the Linux distributions I use don’t do this automatically but I bet it could be configured.

Great name. I take it it’s a play on the word endurance and the name of the great Spanish cycling champion Miguel Induráin. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miguel_Indur%C3%A1in

This is yet another attack on civilians by Russia. The problem for Russia is that no matter how bad they try to make life for civilians, Ukraine will never surrender because they've already seen the torture chambers, rapes, castrations

According to their docs, the NodeJS and Python libraries seem to be wrappers around the Rust implementation. In the case of NodeJS they're using WebAssembly to run the compiled Rust code, which is an interesting approach. If they'

I don't wish to be tracked by Google. If I paid for YouTube Premium then I voluntarily provide even more tracking data to Google. If they offered an ad free tier where you weren't tracked then I would pay for it. Since Google don

This kind of behaviour is why I would never pay for YouTube premium. Google are relentless with their surveillance and are always looking for sneaky new ways to track people.

I can't help but think that we need is for a class action suit to impose strong enough penalties that insurance companies to insist on proper audits of what data is actually needed and what is just a financial loss waiting to happen.

Something that really blew my mind is how far mechanical accuracy can be taken when money is no object. It's said that George Daniels could make mechanical watches that were more accurate than the quartz watches of his day[1], 0.4 seco

I wonder, how does orientation affect a watch with a Coaxial escapement? Since they're a relatively modern innovation I'd guess they were never really used in commercial applications like marine chronometers. https://en

Bollocks it was! Hampstead Heath was in private ownership from before 986, before the Doomsday Book even. Then it was purchased for public use in 1870 odd. The name Van Allen implies Dutch ancestry and, according to the article, he has a
