This is already happening with smart phones.
This is already happening with smart phones.
Still using the buds I got with my galaxy S4. They’ve outlasted 4 sets of BT buds.
LoL… Really?
1 number apart, but considerably different. Sure.
Difference between x5 and x7 maybe. To pass x6 a device must be submerged to a depth of 1m for 30 minutes.
IPx7 is for a device intended to operate permanently submerged. So not a phone.
That fact your picking the difference shows you don’t know the difference.
IP67 is just a marketing gimmick. I’d be impressed if a phone with this rating would endure 12 months submerged and still function. Who needs this anyway?
Galaxy S5 was IP67 with a headphone socket, removable battery and dedicated microSD card slot. Others have also existed. Taking like adding a headphone socket costs more than 5 cents is stupid.
I’m a Bluetooth buds convert now, but I’d still like the choice.
Have had this issue myself asking with other DD card related issues.
I can’t understand why the pi foundation persist with using SD as the only physically practical storage option.
They’re looking post the point of needing a way to snap on reliable EMMC storage, as a default, in a way that doesn’t leave a cable or something permanently plugged into a USB port.
Sure, USB is a fine option, but I hate that it’s only an option and not a designed default.
Most of us only need 8GB or so for the OS, 8GB or good quality durable EMMC should hardly cost anything.
Other tiny computers and even economy notebooks and Chromebooks already use this.
So you’d need 10,000 of them to generate 1 watt.
Sounds useless.
Don’t know why I could not see this repply until today. It’s been ascertained that chirp is not in the repo for Raspian Linux, so indeed that option never worked.
Home ownership is 2024
What PC game broke your OS? That’s mad.
And medical. Suppliers if CT, MRI and X-Ray gear are notorious for wanting to sell new gear and not providing software updates to work on new operating systems.
The same reason there are 98 characters in your message.
edit… Incase you were serious… how else would you represent less than 1%?
Great, you can accomplish the bare essentials with Linux.
Now how do I install a program called chirp for programming 2 way radios?
Searched for a week and gave up as each set of instructions lead down a broken, redundant dependency rabbit hole with no solution in sight, Flatpack this, snap that, no explanation or even a searchable clue that could begin me a solution.
In windows I just unzip the nightly build to a directory of my choice, run the executable and it works.
Sure… Not everyone knows or needs to know about these edge case applications, but point stands, it works in windows, and everyone encounters an edge case sooner or later.
I’m keen to ditch the Microsoft hole, and I have no issue with making an effort to learn, but I can’t afford to or my life in hold for hours or days at a time in order to accomplish things that already work in seconds.
I think my simple issue here is… I’m not incompetent. I can comfortably navigate a fine system in a shell, can mount and unmount, can tar -xvzf a tarball, can do most things up to writing a shell script from scratch (could cobble something
I’d disagree with this.
VPS is opposed to a dedicated server, and actually is a kind of shared hosting because as a VPS user you a allocated a ‘share’ of resources on a machine where others also have a ‘share’ of resources.
Shared housing more typically refers to simpler web hosting where multiple users have their website servers from shared hardware.
So what is the standard fast charging solution they’ve choosen?
The site doesn’t say.
Are we going to see USB-PD in more phones now?
I’d love to see all the different manufacturers standards bugger off.
I know waterproof Type C ports exist as electrical components. So the test is up to the manufacturer to correctly implement it.
Ultimately, Type C is no worse an option to other ports.
Absolutely.
As convenient as Amazon is for example, how is it fair that one guy profits off the labour of tens of thousands.
Just one example of how the internet has made some things worse, not better.
You suck in 1998?
The power that major tech companies weild combined with the addiction the vast majority of the population have to their products is telling me otherwise.
If anything things have gotten worse. Used to have 6 different supermarket bands in my town, but despite population booming we’re now stuck with a duopoly that has 6 shops between them (Coles / Woolworths) and 1 minor left over (Aldi).
That’s what I’m seeing as a 40+ Aussie that’s lived in the same town all that time.
Run? WTF you on about? Dead men can’t run and no one is surviving that dish.
Very rarely do I have a positive view on posts in this com, but this is a rare exception.
No mindless, pointless, circle jerk hating, but rather a positive and legitimate wish and view toward an alternative.
People can hate on cars so they want, but since people and places end up making cars nesecary.
Earlier this year I needed to go Melbourne to Albury, usually a trip done in a car, but this time I had use of a car at the other end so I took the train. Was a fantastic trip. Access to a small food bar, toilets, the occasional stop at more significant towns.
Trains kick ass.
I’d love to see a better in town solution for transport, buses and whatever both in Albury and my home town aren’t really up to scratch yet.
Yeah, is a Pico… $5
