The spec is not liberal. See Section 7.2.1 for power delivery information. "A unit load is defined to be 100 mA. The number of unit loads a device can draw is an absolute maximum, not an average over time. A device may be either low-

Amazon has had this policy for years but unfortunately enforcement is a complete joke and they remain full of noncompliant hardware. I do find it interesting that they ban noncompliant Type C devices but not noncompliant Type A devices. Pro

99% of people do not care what the USB spec says is allowed, if the thing works they will buy and use it. See: every phone charger that outputs more than 500mA over a USB-A port. Doesn't comply with the spec, nobody cares, everyone doe

Apple always claims their issues affect a small number of units. I have seen zero people that tested the i9 MBP and did not see major throttling. The issue is clearly the result of a fundamental defect in how they were managing power and th

You can buy USB3 M.2 SSD enclosures for ~$20. They are larger than normal flash drives at about 5" long but still reasonably pocketable and much higher performance than normal flash drives. Drop in a 1TB SSD for ~$200 and you're g

I upgraded my 2500k last year (to a Ryzen system) and the extra cores are very nice sometimes but honestly the biggest improvement was the fact that I also went from 8GB RAM to 16GB. There were a couple of games that benefited substantially

I don't have a Macbook? I have a Thinkpad that remains at 100% of the 2.6Ghz max turbo clock indefinitely at ~60C because it has a good cooling solution. Notebookcheck reviewed the i7 version which is clocked higher than mine. Max boos

What makes you think this? Lots of laptops have severe throttling issues and the thin-and-light trend of the last few years has not really helped the situation but there are certainly laptops out there that have adequate cooling systems and

It's really annoying that Microsoft's precision drivers work with the vast majority of recent Synaptics touchpads and yet vendors keep shipping this hardware with the terrible Synaptics drivers. You can manually install the precis

Android has supported apps on SD cards for ages. First with Apps2SD then since 6.0 Adoptable Storage which just treats internal+SD as one big storage pool. A lot of higher end phones have disabled the UI for Adoptable Storage due to perform

Yes, the census "80% of people live in cities" thing really just means "incorporated areas". In reality ~2/3 of housing stock in the US is detached[1]. Traditional detached houses and mobile homes combined are aroun

People in Venezuela certainly do send and receive USD from abroad, it is obviously the only way it gets into the country. You can go to a grocery store and buy food with USD. This is what people are actually doing . I suppose you can try t

Bitcoin is a solution to unstable currencies in the same way that gasoline is a fire extinguisher. People in Venezuela that want to actually eat are using USD.
