Interesting point, true. These days you can control the charge direction from Android, that may work. On my phone, I can also use Acc (and AccA) to limit charge current/voltage, and possibly stop charging (I have to check whether it c

I had a 720p phone, and it was perfectly fine (I also have a 720p Steam Deck). I guess it depends on what you use it for, as it could be useful for graphics work. On the other hand, I value battery life, and increasing pixel count always ha

Same, I would like a Framework 13 with input modules (an ortholinear layout may finally be possible? Also with QMK). Also, I would rather take a r5 and have increased battery life (I bet the r7 are binned for higher perf and have higher lea

Even better, USB tethering -- no Wi-Fi needed. At least on Android, it's very easy to enable. It's also a lifesaver when Wi-Fi drivers are unavailable on Linux, as you can use USB tethering, and use your phone as a USB Wi-Fi dongl

IDK, it sounds OK to me: you make plans for meeting, you'll decide what to do on the spot, "improvising". Meeting is definitly not done spontaneously. Neither is choosing the activity. The choice, however, may be spontaneous.

Tangentially, this is directly related to the article, as x*sin(x) is the x-component of plotting (x,x) in polar coordinates: with more precision (with x a real), you'd obtain a single spiral, but with integers where 2pi≈6, they appear

Well, factor is clearly the wrong technical term here, you probably meant the last digit? Like the last digit (remainder of modulo 10 division: p%10 in C-notation) of a prime number (p>5) in base 10 can be {1,3,7,9}. And yes, in base 6 t

There's basically nothing toconfigure with IPv6. With IPv4 you need an addres, a gateway, netmasks, DNS. On v6, as long as you have a working router sending RADV packets, clients will self-configure via SLAAC. Granted, same with IPv4 a

You could also use postmarketos, mobian, etc. Have a look at the pmOS wiki for device support, most support USB OTG, and usually you don't need GPU acceleration nor screen/audio/cameras, which are usual pain points.

Running powertop --auto-tune and TLP makes a lot of difference on my server (60->30W). You can further tune CPU, disks and GPU to preserve energy. I suggest starting with a laptop or a phone (~postmarketos)instea d,as those are already t

Now, I don't know if I would rely on it, but I've certainly thought about asking a LLM to write my patent text for me, provided with a technical description.

Peertube does something similar for livestreaming, with 30s to 60s of latency. WebTorrent instead of IPFS, but the concept is similar.

It just means they are quite easy to get rid of in practice, and likely to be disposed of "naturally" eventually, unlike other substances.

Starlink dishes are heated to melt snow and maintain operating temperatures during winter. Who doesn't like to seat on a flat heated surface instead of walking in the snow during winter? Not cats. I had seen a few pictures of it in ukr

Note that approaches such as hyperdimensional computing somewhat undermine your argument. With HDC, a network learns to encode features it sees in a (many-dimensional, hence the name) hypervector. Once trained (without cats), show it a cat

Who checks the fact-checkers? More LLMs (semi-seriously). I think there is a pretty clear trend of not leveraging "trained"/"built-in" knowledge if you value accuracy, but rather use LLMs as a way to extract meaning

On one hand, that may be true. On the other hand, we may now be able to provide LLM-powered fact checkers, able to reply to every post or label them in order to slow down the dissemination of that kind of info. Of course, authoritarian regi

In theory, you may be able to ask the LLM about the person's life, as if it was the person, but you won't get more facts out than you provide as input. It may still make up credible info. Regarding your last question, it wil lack

I think the implication is that commuting longer distances (20km+) is doable on an e-bike. My commute is 10km (300m uphill) on a regular bike, but I have access to a shower. If I didn't, I don't think I could do it on a regular bi

This is also why I like the sed syntax, that allows you to pick any delimiter, though escapes are still \ for regexes.

Good idea for the laptop. You could use a smart plug (one that runs esphome, for instance, athom.tech sells pre-flashed ones) to wake the TV as well. And maybe the computer too.

I only read the article halfway through, and I am no physicist, but my understanding was that this was a new mathematical method that allowed to calculate past the divergent part. Possibly because some terms cancel out later? a bit like som
