The Xbox One S for example has two separate Mediatek radios. One for networking the other for the controller. There's another option: Buy and hook up a dumb hdmi converter to the panel. Taobao has these (low latency, niche gamer market

There's another catch: What if you keep jump starting another car with leads directly attached until the LA battery is depleted? That is a very common scenario and Tesla should size the electronics correctly or make it resilient for th

Depends on where the 12v was drawn from. If it was connected to the 12V cigarette lighter port (that thing has a 15A or 30A fuse in my car) that should be expected load, but maybe not 2+kW drawn constantly for hours directly from the batter

As a german that enjoys all of it (Threema, OSM editing, linux, etc) my points for contributing are: Pedantry (maybe the wrong term but): Things must be in order. It's really nice to see white areas vanish on the map (I started ten yea

Check out Facebook Analytics. It's used in many smartphone apps, on websites etc. It is an analytics platform free of charge for the website/app operators (and gives FB a huge insight into non-FB users on the side)

You can write down the code for all authenticator entries upon scanning the installation code with a barcode reader app for later reuse :) (I suggest to use fdroid versions for both barcode reader and authenticator anyway to mitigate the is

You maybe can replace the coin cell lithium batteries. The sensors are not built to be servicable but I got it done by scratching off the rubber/glue/expoxy stuff and soldering in replacement cr2025's + sealing it afterwards

The new phone lock du jour is the manufacturer's anti theft mechanism. I recently got two iphones from their owners, pulled out of the drawer to monetize them on classifieds. Both locked and unresettable without the previous owners hel

Thats happening a lot, switching your bank wont help at least not for long. I guess "[x] force smartphone users to use the app" is part of some security checklist now. I got a workaround by switching to desktop mode, when that did

I trust the F-Droid store more due to its curated (FOSS-software-only/no-trackers) maintainer based model and default to them if there's an app that I need, especially simple stuff that tends to mostly be adware on the playstore

Ok thanks. Somehow must have missed that one - I guess it's voluntary unless you install some work related app where company security policies pretty much default to switching off any possible loophole. I don't like where this pat

Well, same pitfall: if someone is nearby is determined by the client and can be spoofed. Technically you could check a GeoIP database and also usecell phone + wifi information to make it harder. All of which can be chosen by the client (apa
