I doubt it's about the cabling. It's convenient not to have to think about shifting, like an automatic transmission in a car. I sometimes wish my bike had it.

My 202x LG sound bar has 8 sound modes ("Music with MERIDIAN", or "Get in the zone during your game with vivid sound effects", ...). Who knows what any of them do, but presumably one of them corresponds to the loudness b

Fair enough -- though I'd take 720p from my DSLR over 1080p+ from my webcam every time; that's enough pixels for a meeting. And I also had to get a capture card for it, because the USB access was locked behind proprietary/shi

Evidently these cameras are capable of exporting high quality video via USB, if you pay 5 bucks a month. This doesn't sound like a hardware problem. It also has a control channel, unlike HDMI.

This is in relation to a concept of phone "body" combined with a replacable faceplate which would expose different functionality (additional buttons, slide-out keyboard). One year later they introduced "Xpress-on" cover

Most phones sold, maybe, flagship phones had USB 3.x five years ago.

It also reads hilariously like a document from the SCP wiki, blacked out passages and all.

Like the sibling, I don't think people had trouble entertaining and distracting themselves. But there was no electrical light, and much less artificial lighting overall. Evenings and nights were dark. I'm sure many a walk home aft

Just stick to a few modules, you really don't need much if all you want is to get a lot out of your photos. Here's a tutorial with a suggested list: https://luxagraf.net/essay/craft/darktable-getting-star

There's always a deselect all option (or rather, the equivalent "accept only the technically required ones"), because it's required by law. Sometimes the operator tries to hide the option. That, too, is illegal.

I think we should just tax it at 100%. Easier than banning it outright.

You make a good point, but going by some cursory research (starting with [1]), it seems to me that while initially daguerrotype portraits took 10-15 minutes to expose, several innovations had reduced the exposure time to well under a minute

Some robots support restoring map snapshots. I wonder what's stopping people from using this as a multi floor implementation?

Such an exaggeration. >92% of the area is served with 5G. Calls are available in 98%-99% of the area (though sometimes just from one of the operators). Some trains were built in a way that blocks reception, though those have had repeater

Looks to me like USB-C/HDMI cables are in the 5-20 EUR price range, about the same as USB-C/DP. I just got a new USB-C hub with HDMI port (4k@60) for about 15 EUR. Simple HDMI or DP cables (ie. same port on both ends) are availabl

Apparently they used 4.4 million cubic yards of concrete during the construction of Denver airport around 1993. That's 3.364×10^6 m3, 1 m3 of concrete weighs 2.4 tonnes (I'm sure it varies), so roughly 8 million tonnes of concrete

I'm not surprised, building a new high-speed line between the largest cities in the Netherlands must be a nightmare, that's connecting and going through some of the most densely populated areas in Europe. The German railway networ

I agree it looks nice, but dressing up an airport in sustainable materials won't materially change the fact that a flight Boston - NYC (one-way!) blasts through ~0.7t[1] of CO2eq of your yearly budget of 1-3t[2]. It won't change t

Kind of funny to see a medication that's super common in Germany, widely recommended by doctors, given to children, etc. to be discussed in those terms.
