I work for an automotive vendor and this kind of thing keeps me up at night. The automotive vendor space is... lacking in technology. It's amazing what little thing we can do from a technological standpoint that impresses the OEMs. Als

This is great. It's an alternative for those who don't want a full IDE or are just getting started with API work. (I hope there's a fully offline version.) Also reminds me of JetBrains' client: https://www.jet

To build on what someone else had said- firmware updates may play a roll here. While I do think any manufacturer should test things before they ship I am grateful that Dell does seem to keep pushing updates for them. I did install the lates

Thank you for pointing this out- as individual stories our experiences are anecdotal but combined they paint a different picture. I was hesitant at first when I ordered mine and expected to have problems as others did. I should also point o

Yes, I can. Note however, that this is not a USB dock- it's Thunderbolt. In my particular case (literally just tested this) I needed to enable Thunderbolt boot support and change the security level (I have my thunderbolt settings prett

The recent XPS lineup has been really great especially with the mainline kernel. I have a 15" so the thermal issues were a bit of a challenge at first. I ended up undervolting the CPU and now I get decent battery life (~4 hours) and no

Mine stays warmish but not enough to make the fans consistently spin. The heat generated by using the dock is no different than what's generated by using an AC adapter with individual DP & USB cables.

Part of it may also depend on the dock and how it routes the TB lanes. My dock uses 2 lanes for dock features and does passthrough for the rest. Are you able to daisy-chain your monitors off any of those ports without the dock in the path?

I struggled for a long time to find a "full featured" dock that could support my setup with a single cable. I wanted 3x 2560x1440@60 monitors, wired ethernet, USB 3.x, and power without having 5+ cables to move around. Last year D

Have any data to back that up?

I recently switched to Brave and have been quite happy with it. Their new syncV2 works pretty well. Plus, I get a perfect import of all chrome settings including extensions.

One of ours had a giant red button you could hold to pause the 60 second timer before all the oxygen was displaced. Every single engineer was trained to immediately push that if people were in the room because it was supposedly a guaranteed

Ditto. Here's a Chromium vs Chrome screenshot. https://imgur.com/a/YShyehD Note that in chromium there's an implicit style tag that doesn't show up in chrome. Manually adding style { display: n

I think for me there's just a hobby/cool factor. I have no intention to build one nor can I think of a good use case but it's still neat to look at someone else's handiwork.

I bought an XPS 2 years ago and haven't looked back. It's extremely well supported by most kernels and just worked for me. Furthermore- Dell's WD19TB dock works on most kernels (and all newer XPS models) as well. I'm tal

This one drives me up a wall. I always find myself thinking "hey jerk I'm already a paying customer where the f is MY button?"

But... they literally showed the config change and said what was wrong with it.

Good lord, 6 years? I've had some managed switches with nearly 2 years uptime but 6 is just asinine. I assume it was on a UPS? If so, how did the battery healthy stay usable? Or was the electrical grid there just super dependable?

Chrome includes proprietary (licensed) binary blobs such as certain DRM features similar to widevine.

I don't think the article is suggesting that the US not be energy independent but rather just that fracking isn't providing that.

My understanding is that this is exploitable on any machine using the extension (so Chrome or any other Chromium based browsers) regardless of operating system.

Curious to see how this plays out long term. I just submitted my voice for their data. Also, anyone have a guess where to contact the authors to let them know their link to telling.ai is relative and not absolute? Goes to a 404 right now.

I'm mostly surprised by the number of pen input elements 95 had. I was still a kid at the time so I didn't have any exposure to more advanced hardware. How common was it?

I get the impression he/she is saying that someone who uses explitives to describe a programming language is someone who has a higher likelihood of not having objective reasons for disliking it. Even if I prefer tool A over tool B I ca

Most of their demands seem reasonable but I don't understand their request that plants be reopened. If there aren't customers to buy the products why would the UAW demand that GM keep making cars at those plants?
