The use of 'miles' here is just silly. We should be discussing the 4C charge rate and in what conditions, not how many miles in some specific car.

Yep, and this is why protecting medical data is hard. This is a nice compact example of the same thing.

While your comment is interesting discussion, I'm not sure the posted video is arguing for geohacking. I watched it last night and got more of a "here's a cool physics trick that seems like it has some real-world applications

The audio signal is encoded in AM signal by effectively multiplying a high-frequency "carrier" signal (like a 1.4 MHz sine wave) with the amplitude of the audio signal (some squiggles that match the air pressure waves we perceive

XFS has online shrink, which can be a nice feature for LVM volumes. That's a special use case, I know.

Not well. Very few updates since then. https://github.com/keybase/client/graphs/code-frequency tells the story well.

Frigate https://frigate.video/ is a strong up and coming NVR that does object detection. Many people are using it with relatively inexpensive Amcrest, Dahua, or other RTSP cameras, and then isolating those cameras so they c

Gigabyte's servers built around these are also pretty awesome. All the bells and whistles you'd expect from server gear, but with a lower idle power draw. https://www.gigabyte.com/Enterprise/ARM-Server

I am eager and hopeful to see how the crash tests go. It's encouraging that they are already simulating crash events though.

You might look into Unistrut or the other compatible steel strut channel.

Good to keep alternatives in mind. I have found unistrut significantly cheaper when you want to build larger scale or stronger stuff. It's not super versatile, but can still do a lot.

I agree. My Gigabyte Ampere system idles closer to 120 watts total, including the disks. While it's not filled to the brim with RAM, 250 watts seems high.

I am seeing lots of entries that could be better (or at least partially) updated using data from company websites. For example, the local pharmacy chain or fast food restaurant's hours are on their site. Does anyone more clued in to OS

Boost. The term is boost, not lift. This isn't a helicopter. I understand the term 'lift' may be more accessible for the general public, but it drives me nuts to see news outlets use it.

My daily driver keyboard is a Sun Type 7 USB, mostly because I find these keys amusing. A fair number can be made to work with a little effort. It was very useful when I sprained my left pinky finger, making ctrl-c and others difficult. For

Those few words are a perfectly adequate response though. The author has bigger things to get done right now.

The author specifically called that out. You are correct. They also didn't look at DLLs used by other DLLs. This is like a back-of-the-envelope calculation. A quick first pass to get an order of magnitude.

It makes sense. I understand that developing this stuff takes money. This reminded me to donate to Matrix.org.

I somehow was lucky enough to get a used Gigabyte E252-P30 as a home server. It has the 80-core version of their CPU in it, and it's been great. Seriously polished server-grade hardware with remote management, tons of memory channels a

This looks like a suitable ESP32 version of the Teensy microcontroller dev boards. And even better, they're open hardware. Excellent!
