Isn't it the exact same size as the lightning earpods though? The spec does has analog audio, but I've yet to see it used (by apple or a third party)

Do you have a source saying that the analog over lightning is being used here? Because the slide I posted in my other reply says it is "digital audio" over lightning, which I assume to be true for both lightning earpods and this a

I assumed it had a DAC, but can't find a source that says either way.

I had assumed it had a DAC since I haven't seen apple use lightning for analog audio yet. I could be wrong, but couldn't find any source for clarification (upon googling). This slide from yesterday seems to suggest lightning is be

The dongle: probably has a poor quality DAC, gets lost easily, and prevents the phone from being charged or tethered to a computer.

Once the payload is delivered, the return trip is faster and less energy intensive (due to less weight). Why couldn't the drone just return to the same or even a different truck? I'd assume there is more than one truck per city.

My comment is not an argument that access to electricity is impossible and you reiterating physical needs seems to suggest you missed my point. That last sentence was only pointing out that you happened to pick as an example the name of a p

The fact that you replied to "without access to the same resources" with a list of physical needs seems to show that you really don't appreciate the disadvantages lower income people face. A laptop is fairly useless without t

I was looking into the limits of compelled speech during the Apple v FBI situation earlier this year. IANAL. The courts have said that there are some definite limits on when the government can force speech. I'm not sure where a warrant

Journalism pieces do not require model release. The "questionable student loan repayment services" that used the image probably didn't pay Reuters and probably aren't using the photo legally.

If VR/AR technology takes off (as Facebook, microsoft, and Google believe it will), this provides a convenient, accessible, and cheap means to produce content. No specific use-case needs to be established yet IMHO.

As a lover of Emoji and deep learning, this is awesome. Are you planning to support unicode 9.0 sometime soon (I know it isn't even technically out)?

Open source doesn't necessarily mean that you can put it on the device. I'm sure a lot of Yubico's critics would be happy with seeing the code even if it can't be flashed.

Oh. Now I'm reading davideous' comment much differently. But the title of the blog post (ie "vs") makes it seem like they aren't making it open source so that the hardware is secure.

My opinion on this is that physical security is paramount. Your threat model can't possibly eliminate all threats from an adversary that has physical access. No hardware is 100% secure and for Yubico to say this issue is about "Se
