Your product looks amazing but I see no use of encryption with the cloud sync? Unfortunately that's a dealbreaker for me :(

The solution you propose requires 2-way communication with the car. Virtually no cars do this (in their OEM configuration anyway.) Without 2-way communication, the remote has no way of knowing if the vehicle acted on the signal.

A huge amount of vintage electronic music gear, from multiple manufacturers, receive firmware updates via MIDI. Keyboards, synths, even electronic drum systems. It is extremely common, though not so much anymore thanks to USB.

Re: your article - there are no Thunderbolt monitors with an integrated GPU. There were rumors about this happening some day, but it hasn’t yet. Also, your review omits battery life... Why? It’s one of the most important considerations.

Anecdote: My instagram ads also consist of uncommonly thin, scantily clad women, and I'm male, and do not do yoga (though I am considering it.) I don't think it has as much to do with your gender as it does with instagram doubling

It's best not to take your own experiences with acceptance about literally any matter whatsoever and use it as a lens to fathom what it's like for other people.

BMW's latest rev of this tech (they call it 'active cruise control') has an adjustable sensitivity for brake response. Default setting is very good; it only slams on the brakes if it absolutely has to, otherwise it's a g

Your link is broken - I think it's because their TLS configuration doesn't support the non-www hostname. This link works though: https://www.armscontrolwonk.com/

CRTs can quite capably emit daylight blue. People used to use them for photography, video games, etc. Just not typically in bed.

Instead of downvoting cryptoz, I encourage people to counter what he said with their own replies. The majority of his statements in this post are verifiable facts. (I do not know this person, fwiw).

Perhaps, but if poor UX prevents a user from using an ostensibly more secure platform, then security of said platform doesn’t enter into the consideration at all.

After reading my post, I am surprised you fail to imagine a lifestyle different than your own where, for example, your time at home and away from home is unpredictable, and so a timer would not be helpful, but a geofencing system is.

Perhaps, but it’s a network services bot, which is very much a part of most IRC networks. Did you know they connect to the network as a server, not as a regular client like most irc bots?

Easily. The Roadster will have far fewer customers than the Model 3. They just won't have to build as many. Sure, the Roadster probably takes a bit more labor to build than a Model 3, but probably not by much.

There are indeed several major differences. The first one that comes to mind is to get the most cycles out of a lead acid battery, they recommend not discharging it below 50% capacity. Lithium ion batteries are usually good to 85% - 90% dis

You are correct, as the size of infrared waves is much too big to resolve the same level of detail that the smaller waves of visible light can. But even beyond that, water vapor is opaque to most IR frequencies. So a cloudy day would be eno
