What kind of amperage is your car putting out? Older cars really struggle to power phones. In some cars, it's possible to upgrade the USB port - otherwise, you may be better off using the 12V port (cigarette lighter) since you have wir

Just gonna throw this out there... for me, one of the main reasons I don't play games on my phone, is because it will absolutely tank the battery life. A dedicated device has the benefit of having a sole purpose: gaming. If I kill the

Huh. We use it in our car and it works OK. I do know other with the car who have issues with lag however. Slow charging though... that seems orthogonal?

God, I hope not. For all the "eco-friendliness" they spouted, this would be a step in the wrong direction. I found it amusing that they tried to spin Magsafe as eco-friendly too... because, uh, you can't use leather cases any

I think perhaps the author meant "long development life." As in, they are basically write-once utilities. Part of the benefit of doing "one thing well."

Go also uses goroutines and channels to facilitate message passing, or as they describe it, "sharing memory by communicating." I imagine Rust to be a language far more similar to Go, in both use cases and functionality, than JS.

Of course, there is no magic bullet. Some problems aren't solved by rolling back services. (e.g. A thundering herd of clients caused by re-deploying an old build overloading your database.)

I use that app for SponsorBlock - I can't live without it now. However, I find the app's UX to be a little off-putting compared to the actual Youtube app.

I fear that you (and others in this thread) may be underestimating the size of the driver/passenger seat of an American make's sedan (e.g. Ford, Chevy, etc... IOW, the same people who make these trucks.) Certainly, having owned mu

To say nothing of your argument around painting the Eiffel Tower (which I assume you meant in a different sense than the article...) It has been legal to photograph the Eiffel Tower since 1993 (its copyright expired.) It is legal to take ph

FWIW, one of my vehicles which _does not_ get the EPA estimated is a 2017 Ford Fusion 2.0L AWD. EPA estimate is 20/29/23 (city/highway/combined.) I normally get 21mpg combined, which is really not so far off. Lots of hig

IMO, Zelle qualifies as a terrible 3rd party app... My landlord takes payment via Zelle, and I tried to setup a payment from Discover but it told me that my limit was something ridiculously low like $500. I called to ask them to increase it
