I'm going to assume they are referring to any cloud backups of said devices. Since they are stored on servers managed by not you and are unencrypted, able to be accessed for "national security reasons".

The amount of money that has been floating around since 2020 has really exasperated the demand in the Rolex market. Dealers have been playing the "exclusive" game with customers pretending like stock is limited because of the popu

Amazing. All of this truly wild, impressive technology and some of the absolute best engineers in the world, just to shove more ads in people's eyeballs. Sigh.

Tbh, they’re probably doing both to some extent.

This is cool. I always knew that Matrix could theoretically support anything chat related, but I had no idea that Beeper existed and a company was formed around the idea. This is actually exciting to me. It sounds stupid, but I can't w

Yes good move, but you can't buy any Ford vehicles with NACS currently. Its supposed to go into effect in 2025 afaik.

I feel like the primary issue is the charging network and range. Tesla makes up for its lack of range with an extremely robust network. It doesn't seem like Ford is doing anything to reassure customers they will be able to charge their

Peter Attia, but he is focused on things that are well studied and concentrates on the low hanging fruit, eg. mental health, diet, and exercise.

Also to be fair, IME there seems to be a lot more vocal pro-IPv6 people on the NANOG list than not.

You'll never need that much power at home. Level 2 AC 240V 30-50A is fine for overnight charging. The way Tesla Supercharging works is by using a large bank of batteries for the heavy bursts of power draw (>100kW) during the initial

This is basically the same situation in the US as well. It’s kinda sad that the sports industry across the board are all beholden to these companies now. Makes you really think about any close calls by the officials/referees. A LOT of

This comment was unnecessary. The parent comment was on topic, emotional to read, and felt authentic to me.

Yes you are correct. I guess I was just stating that it can pull up to 48A, which can be a lot higher than most other appliances in a home.

Just FYI, I live in the humid mid-Atlantic region of the US. My 2500sqft house has a 2-ton conventional AC system that draws about 1.5-1.7kW at full power. My Model 3 long range draws about 11kW while charging off of the Tesla Wall Connecto

All teslas besides the SR Model 3 charge at 48A. At home with the Tesla wall connector, it’s a 240V charger, so roughly 11k watts, and they recommend a 60A breaker.

Lenovo still offers up to 5 years, next business-day onsite service for the Thinkpad line that is somewhat reasable. Unfortunately, the battery warranty is an additional line item. Usually the 3 year NBD onsite option with battery is about

So...with everyone blocking out ads (which I do hate and am pro-ad-blocker), how do journalists get paid? I'd personally rather pay for access to decent journalists (which I do), from numerous different sources. CNN being one of those

Just like the majority of things in life, moderation is the important part. I was diagnosed with ADHD as a teen, and took adderall to deal with it and get through school. In my 30s, I continue with taking it in reasonable doses, with breaks

Yes because of "trustless" markets and multisig, but Monero has a sizable portion of that market share as well, I've heard.

As a new iOS user, this is the #1 thing that makes me want to sell my 12 Mini and go back to vanilla Android. Notifications are a total mess in iOS.
