No, but it is super easy to just not connect your TV to the internet, which is basically the same thing. I've recently bought 2 new Samsung TVs and just pressed the SKIP button on the setup wifi screen. Then I disabled the home screen

demijohn are a bottle in a wicker wrapping. Once you get to large glass bottles like this breakage is real issue so it makes sense to wrap them so they can be moved with less chance of breakage. Note that if you do build one of these, be V

White rice is pretty much the definition of "white carbs". Its glycemic index is only just behind white bread and brown rice isn't far behind it.

Same here. I have a gas truck but the Model 3 is much nicer on long trips. This wouldn't be possible without the charging network. Last weekend I forgot to throw the charger in the trunk for 2 hour drive to my parents with 240V@30A.

I'm guessing the definition of "last" in the US is different. Pretty much any car will last 200k with enough maintenance but historically cars would have quite a bit of down time for repairs after the first 100k. When drivi

I'm guessing it is due to the temperature the oven can reach. A normal oven can only hit 500F but once you get much higher than that the steel works too well, casing the crust to burn before the toppings (or top crust) are properly coo

Part of this is the regulation in the US around refrigerant reclamation. Once a gas is used as a refrigerant, it has be reclaimed/recycled or large fines can be assessed, even though the rules do not apply when the same gas is used in

Not at all. The only place they ever "veer" is when the lane markings are lacking, which isn't very common. It is especially uncommon on the long, boring stretches of interstate that seem to drag on forever when driving.

All ODM needs is a centroid Lat/Lon from the EXIF tags on each photo. You can optionally add a text file that gives a pixel an exact Lat/Lon. From this it matches features from the photos to calculate the exact pitch, yaw, direc

FWIW, ODM was slightly better quality than Photoscan in our tests. We only tested orthomosaics but ODM had less error to our ground control points (note we didn't feed the givens into these tests) and less aberrations.

We are using ODM for generating orthomosaic photos and it produced better results than the commercial offerings we have seen (In some cases MUCH better). Note this did require us to tweak the settings some but overall it was pretty easy pr

I'm in the midwest and pretty much every dev group that is cloud focused based is Mac based. The transitions from onsite to cloud and the switch to mac seem to go hand and hand. Doing lots of web work with open source software is pain

The price is high but they are really nice. I bought Pixel 1 on launch day and still have no desire to upgrade. (To be fair I have replaced the device a few times due to cracked glass but still a Pixel 1). This could just be a slowdown in

In warm climates, yes. AWD is important anywhere where it snows.

My main issue with Java is all the annotation based programming. Some of these are nice and can make the easy case super easy but if you need go even slightly off the easy path you seem to quickly loose all the time gained on the easy path

Actually, it doubles your area of risk. Now you have 2 companies to worry about per device.

Every time I'm seen a layoff in tech it is always the lower performing employees first out the door. Round 1 is normally just letting people go who should have been fired years before. Of course this is often when the good employees s

That should have been: At some point you get tried of trying to find an underutilized box to launch a new docker container. At this point any service should just be a docker container but you still have to find a home with enough memory, cp

This. At some point you get tried of trying to find an underutilized box to launch a new service. This is when you should start looking for something more complicated.

In a perfect world, requiring reclamation would help. In the real world it just pushes this off to gray market recycler. They will come by and pick up your broken fridge for free for the recycle value but most will just vent the refrigeran

Yes. One candidate remembered to do it that way after some searching, the other never did. Both started out by looping over the items in the dict and stopping at the correct one. Asking if there was a simpler way to get values out of dict

Ok, now that refrigerates are ozone safe can we get all the regulations removed from them? At least for the safe ones? Right now if you don't reclaim the R-134A from your car AC or fridge it is a $27k fine while you can buy cans of it

It doesn't really matter that Google does. Sure it might be cheaper to use a competitor but if it will cost us 10M to migrate and test the working production workflow then it would have to be 10M cheaper to switch. This gives our curre

Where I work the answer is most certainly a YES. We have so much stuff using non-portable cloud offerings that switching would be a nightmare. (Step Functions, Lambda, SQS) Sure we could switch to replacements but the cost and time would

But the journeys you need a quick charger for are. For normal usage you charge at home.

by mohaine 8y ago
Destination chargers are normally much slower charging and are not really usable for a long trip. Good for overnight but nobody wants to charge a half hour for every hour on the road.
