I assume they are referencing the fact that Oneweb's network architecture is based on 3GPP standards that allow the network to be operated with capabilities matching those of terrestrial carrier-grade cores. There's in theory a lo

As lousy as Plex (both the company and the product) have become, there really aren't alternatives with feature-parity available. Jellyfin is starting to get there in terms of basic media center functionality, but still faces stability

In my experience - it can provide a 'full day' of usage, possibly more if used minimally. Given that my use case is a conscious effort to minimize screen time, I haven't ever found myself worried about battery life.

I'm a fan of the Unihertz Jelly 2. It's great for 'detoxing' from smartphone usage because it is still able to provide useful everyday functions like Google Maps, but is so small that it's infuriating to use for min

I always submit reports when something is wrong on Apple Maps, same as I do with Google Maps. I think the public service aspect of it outweighs the 'free labor' aspect.

Everything about walking directions from Apple maps (directions on lock screen; Apple Watch integrations) is better, UX wise. The problem is, despite admittedly massive improvements, I still have issues with it containing stale location dat

The Rüstem Pasha mosque is truly a gem, and much less frequently trafficked than many other tourist-destination mosques. I always advise people visiting Istanbul to stop in, but almost feel bad about it because too much traffic would sort o

I've always found this criticism to be overblown. Most conbini have trash and recyling bins out front, and in urban areas there's generally a conbini every few blocks, if not more frequently. It's not uncommon to see recyclin

There was probably a warehouse ops/tech angle to it too. Zappos was something of a pioneer in large-scale robotic warehouse automation, and Amazon ultimately also acquired the robotics vendor Zappos relied on (Kiva).

Sure, they work for chlorine, but there are plenty of other issues (arsenic, PFCs, other VOCs, glyphosates, TTHMs, lead for non 'Elite' Brita filters) that Brita filters are woefully inadequate to address.
