Why are the only two options to let ads through or reject them? How about, fact check them and visibly mark them as being potentially false and a link to more details. This should make both sides happy: Zuck who believes the public should d

%99.999 of people aren't going to look up the legitimacy of this. Why spend development effort where the likelihood of getting caught is so low. And even when "getting caught" isn't that big a deal.

This board can only consume power. ST sells chips which act as USB PD supply but they're only interface chips. You'll need a DC-DC converter and charger circuit as well which is usually complicated with dozens of components and tr

Had never heard of GaN. Googled and they are amazing! Thank you.

Most cars provide >120watt power through the cigarette lighter socket. It's just that no one has yet made a USB charger with that output power presumably because no single device requires it yet.

Yes, it can be reprogrammed and yes, it works between power cycles.

Yes! Exactly what happened with my Pixel phone. The cable would fall out after a minute. Took a toothpick and a few minutes to get the dirt out and now it's as good as new.

I knew about the cables on eBay but wow, didn't know about Lenovo's official one. Thanks!! Also the other project is pretty cool as well. Will check out the components there too.

Yes, just sign up and create a project and enter some parts. It tells you instantly the cost of each.

There definitely could be one out there, but given the size of the Apple charger, power output performance, build quality and ubiquity, I think it'll be hard to find an alternative that costs less. A lot of expensive components goes in

I had a similar issue with my Pixel Phone's USB-C socket. The Apple's USB-C cable would fall out on its own after a while! Turns out, there was so much lint from clothing trapped at the end of the socket that the cable couldn'

USB-C can supply up to 100 watts of power at 20v and up to 5A current. At the moment, you can easily get your hands on 87 watt Apple charger which is a high quality and compact [1]. That's a huge amount of power. To put this into persp

Worth thinking about when this law came into effect and limitations of technology at that time. Given GPS data, it's possible to ensure the car never exceeds the speed limit and hence, perfect enforcement of the law may result in no mo
