Hit and miss I would say. Budget Sony headphones I bought last year work great with my iPhone. No complaints at all. The Bluetooth stack on my iMac has a bug where it will crash hard after around two weeks of uptime. Very annoying, because

Do you happen to have a source for this comparison? I'm curious to know what the economics of grid scale electricity storage are.

All three networks have disabled 3G access in 2021, as far as I know.

I was mistaken about this apparently. There are tools though, that can discover subdomains using long lists of commonly used names and patterns. Anyways thanks for the correction.

Thanks for submitting this article. I wasn't aware it's so easy to misconfigure the TLS settings of web servers. It might also explain some TLS errors I have encountered in the past in Firefox. It would be super helpful if someone

I was wondering recently if it's better to use wildcard certs because of this. On the other hand, all sub-domains are discoverable through DNS anyways. Does it then make a difference if the sub-domains are logged in the certificate tra

You can check the rated cycle counts for most Macbooks on the following Apple Support page: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102888 Most recent Macbooks should last for 1000 full cycles. Though I'm pretty sure you

You can check the cycle count using the System Information app in the power section. Option-click on the Apple logo is a convenient shortcut to open System Information. There is also the third-party Coconut Battery app that gives you other

Neat. A tool like this but for VPN profiles would be nice. I had to manually create them to connect to my internet router. The number of available options is quite intimidating.

Add to that, that you can't upgrade RAM in most Desktop Macs anymore. I want to buy a Mac soon, and I'm really struggling to decide how much RAM I should order. Unfortunately, my budget is limited. If it wasn't, I would proba

This is an important consideration. Thanks for mentioning it.

I have the same tool and charger and only noticed the out-of-spec voltage after trying to charge the tool with a regular USB-C cable and charger. It's really disappointing someone thought this is a good design. Newer revisions of the t

Ok, sorry. I did not understand that you just mentioned that to give more context. Totally makes sense.

Thank you (and all the adjacent comments). I don't really need so much RAM for my regular work. Running the llms locally would only be for fun and experiments. I think 32GB might be the best middle ground for my needs and budget constr

Thank you for this detailed response. I'm not sure if it was clear, but I was going to use just the Apple Silicon CPU/GPU, not an external one from Nvidia. Is there anything useful you can do with 24 or 32GB of RAM with llms? Regu

This is a bit off-topic and probably a noob question. But maybe someone with experience could help me. I'm about to buy a M2 or M3 Mac to replace my Intel Mac, and would like to play around with locally run LLMs in the future. How much

Sales have decreased from 565,000 to 485,000 or 14% in "Europe" YoY in the third quarter 2023. I would not call that a collapse.

A doubling of travel time is harsh. But I'm wondering how you managed to charge so inefficiently (time wise). Could it be, that you traveled with the smallest Škoda Enyaq which only supports up to 50kW of charging rate? I checked your

They are cheaper built because of the high share of R&D cost each car has to contribute.

I don't think we will increasy taxes for electricity. How do you even to that, when most cars are charged at home. The more likely scenario is that governments will impose higher road use charges. That has been a trend anyway in most o

Rare earths are not a major component in car batteries. They are mostly used in the electric motors for the magnets and it's acutally quite easy to replace them. Mining of lithium, copper, nickel, will have to expand in the future. But

Right now, electric cars are still at a disadvantage because of lower production volumes. It's not only the material cost of the battery and the motor that makes them more expensive, but also the share of the development costs that eac

This seems to be good advice for single cells. But what about packs with cells wired in series and parallel? My understanding is, that packs always come with a battery management system (BMS) that will balance the cell voltages and therefor

They are cooked by the hot butter and you can also put the siphon into a hot water bath for a short amount of time. To be fair, the texture is not exactly the same as traditional hollandaise. But it's much easier to get it right.

I bought a siphon to make whipped cream (and other recipes) a couple of weeks ago. Fresh cream from it tastes a lot better than from the store bought canisters. Not sure what the reason is, but I'm guessing the store bought canisters c

Thank you for this explanation! I had a hunch that this is how it works. But it seemed to simplistic for it to be true.
