A lot of silliness has been tossed around about Teslas in this thread so let's be clear about how they work. A Tesla vehicle have two main independent systems: - The "car" that operates the motors, blinkers, shifting, Autopil

There's a lot of stuff that can't reach 60fps but has headroom over 30fps, that's where the 40 comes from. It's a completely arbitrary point, just happens to be halfway between 1/60 and 1/30 s, and (external be

I've found the Deck quite uncomfortable to hold, with the rear buttons being the lowest point. Lots of pain in the curve of the palm, plus the stock plastic is slippery which makes you try to squeeze harder. Propped up on a stand with

Do you know if the plastic casing is any easier to open? I damaged the edges of mine with the spludger when prying it open to install an SSD, the plastic is quite soft.

There’s a bit more to it than this. If you run afoul of the big payment processors like Visa and Mastercard, you may find it difficult to even pay for the stuff you mentioned (or get paid). The ideal of companies being able to refuse servic

Wonder if they’ll go back on their print-only stance. Kirn was very adamant that it would never be online when he was plugging it on America This Week , but for myself I’m wholly uninterested in “the newspaper experience” but would still l

This is so cool! My first entry in this series was WipEout Pure on PSP; such a great experience and remastered twice with HD and Omega Collection. Impressive how the PS1 original can run at 60 fps in a browser.

I don’t mean to be flippant but aren’t those all symptoms of sleep deprivation? I’m wary of phrasing like “linked to” in science reporting because it falls short of asserting causality.

I’m less interested in playing old games than having an accurate description of the hardware to study and visualize. Hopefully one day they’ll release their source so we can see where they differ with your project. Thanks for explaining the

No subject is being changed. The assertion introduced in the root comment is about the effectiveness of public shaming as a means to sustain social order. There are many good replies arguing against that notion. It is also the peak of naïve

Can you share what you enjoy about your Action button? I had mine set to the default waypoint marker but it’s only really useful on hikes. I switched it to summon the Activity app, but I haven’t found a way to do anything like mark lap time

A Tesla has exactly what you describe in the Energy app, and it is very accurate, always within 1-2% in my experience. The newest version also has a breakdown of which systems are drawing power. But that’s off topic; this article is about t

“You’re so close”-type replies are easily the most annoying kinds of comments on message boards. Can you just say what you actually mean so people can refute it directly?
