Fall detection on Apple Watch doesn’t just dial emergency services like Emergency SOS does, they could hear you mowing your lawn and probably assumed you called by mistake (it happens). When fall detection activates a 60 second timer starts

Emergency SOS should work in any country, as long as you have your iPhone nearby or you have a Cellular-enabled watch. Your second link is specific to international roaming with the cellular-enabled watch, which gets complicated for various

I ordered my grandmother a Series 5 for this feature alone, in fact it just arrived at my door today and she’s coming over later this week so I can get it setup and walk her through the basics. She has a hard time getting up from the floor

You’re thinking more along the lines of Fedora, this probably tracks what Red Hat is aiming for in their regular point releases for RHEL.

More or less what I got as well. This is a welcome change for ISVs and IHVs, and I’m glad to see CentOS have a place in the family beyond “RHEL for people who don’t want to pay for support”.

It’s also hella confusing because there’s not a marketing or real protocol name attached beyond the “5G” moniker, at least not that I could easily find. I can name GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSPA, 1xRTT, EVDO, WiMAX, and LTE off the top of my head a

We can see in this specific case there was better cache locality and more data was served from the L1 and L2 cache with a drop in L3 cache misses (no hits, because it didn’t have to look in L3 for anything). 6 cycles for bounds checks that

If the iPhone 6-8 and now the X/XS/11 are anything to go by then I think the days of the tick-tock refreshes are over. Apple has made it pretty clear they don’t see upgrading their phones every 1-2 years anymore. Personally if my

For the health of the mother it’s wise to space pregnancies apart, by 18 months according to the WHO. There’s increased risk for a lot of things for closely spaced pregnancies, so the condoms are a pretty good idea.

Putting l10n/i18n data inline is generally not a pleasant experience, and this problem persists regardless of what serialization format you are using. Either have separate data files per-locale that are merged with the defaults or stor

Replacing the fans on server systems is tricky, many “quiet” fans are such because they have a lower max RPM which will freak the hell out of your management controller. Also, there’s only so much optimization you can do to 40mm fans in a 1

Likely registered, not buffered - FBDIMMs fell out of favor some time ago. Technically still “buffered”, but only the control lines and it maintains electrical compatibility with UDIMMs.

But when that hypervisor fails to boot you are SOL. I have vFlash cards in all my Dell servers with the OS install media and a recovery image so I can fix broken installs quickly. Oh, and that stupid PCIe training error from a NIC that went

It’s not even limited to GPU’s, a quad-port Intel NIC in my TD340 causes it to max fan speeds if I’m not running the A01 BIOS. The argument is they don’t know the thermal requirements of the card because it’s not OEM-branded so they max the

I’ve got four servers and two switches in my home office, noise is around 45dBA and with the door closed it’s inaudible. Total power draw idle is around 340W (3.1A measure by my PDU @ 110V).

I’ve got 4 servers in my rack at home, I don’t like getting behind it to swap peripherals around. I plan on getting more eventually for a Ceph cluster too. If you’ve got one or two, then, sure.

Sure, but the licenses to unlock them are easy to acquire. Dell ties them to the service tag, which is quite easy to set via racadm and you can buy a license off eBay. Older Dell systems required a $30 part you can find on eBay. HP just use

They may not want to get rid of the hardware, but they may want to run something other than z/OS on it. RHEL is well supported on both IBM midrange and mainframe systemd.
