These items are dangerous. The FAA limit for power bank capacity is 100Wh (~27000mAh), which is 360kJ of energy. A hand grenade has approximately 700-800 kJ of energy. Two powerbanks contain the same amount of energy as a hand grenade.

Look up Air Busan Flight 391, a power bank in someone's carryon caused the entire plane to burn down in 5 minutes. The airplane (an Airbus A321) was destroyed. The only reason there was not total loss of life was because the plane hadn

A similar situation happened a few weeks ago when the US/Israel started targeting Iranian police facilities. They bombed a public park in Tehran called "Police Park" because it has the name "Police" in it. It's

As someone who's dealt with multiple issues caused by faulty USB cables, being able to buy cables that are actually built to spec would make my life a ton easier. I'm sure someone out there who will also benefit from these.

No, it is because doors take up a lot of space. A typical door is 3 feet wide, and requires 7-14 feet of empty space to operate [0]. You can't place any furniture, toiletries, or luggage racks in this space. For a typical hotel room of

My statements are substantiated by sources going back almost a decade. See my other comment for details. And when you view what Apple is doing from their long-term vision of the iPhone becoming a transparent piece of glass, it starts making

You probably viewed this as a common trope because you were not aware of the actual source of the rumors. No, these are not claims are not from reddit, they're from Mark Gurman in 2018. > Apple designers eventually hope to remove m

My understanding is that Apple didn't add USB-C to iPhones because they planned to remove all ports from the iPhone entirely. They envisioned it as a wireless only device. EU regulation stopped this from happening, and now once they ad

Proxmox is a hypervisor OS, and its value comes from its virtualization and container-management features. These features include being able to pause, resume, snapshot, backup/restore from snapshot, and live-migrate VMs or LXCs to anot

I’m convinced that in its early years, Tether operated as a scam, skimming deposits and creating coins out of thin air. But once they realized they had accidentally created a money-printing machine, they attempted to become legit and quietl

Key EUV research was funded by the US government, and developed at Lawrence Livermore/Berkeley Labs & Sandia national labs. The IP is owned by the US government and they created a licensing vehicle, Silicon Valley Labs, to commerci

They don't have a choice. ASML licenses the intellectual property for EUV lithography from the US government. Therefore they follow US export control laws on EUV machines.

I tried the Google One VPN, and quickly stopped using it, because it didn't offer the most basic feature of a VPN: the ability to choose your own server. Google assigned you a server somewhere near where you live, in the same country.
