I’m surprised you mentioned the battery (which is a problem with any EV towing), and not the fact the hitch can just snap off if you hit a pothole hard enough.

Most over-ear noise cancelling headphones I’ve seen have a 3.5mm input that works with the noise cancelling.

they built a model specifically to work well on the benchmarks.

To be fair, I’m pretty sure that’s what everyone is doing. If you’re not measuring against something, there’s no way to tell if you’re doing anything at all.

What the fuck, who changed that? Seems like a horrible idea.

Another point is that if the dam is 10m tall, it has to be built to withstand 10m of water. just because it sits at 5m most of the time doesn’t mean a heavy rain couldn’t raise the level, and if the dam collapses that’s going to be catastrophic vs just spilling over the top.

Personally I’d be happy if I never had to touch a micro-USB device ever again. Mini-USB is somewhat acceptable, but USB-C blows the rest out of the water. It’s unquestionably the better USB standard

That would be USB 2.0 and is pretty safe to assume that all USB ports and cables support this (If you can find a USB 1.0 or 1.1 port I’ll be impressed). Why bother with a 480Mbps logo if it’s the default minimum?

A tomb? In this economy? 😂

How will they even know it exists until the switch is triggered?

Ironically HoloISO also can’t be installed easily right now since all the prepared downloads are missing. You could maybe built it yourself from source, but I haven’t figured it out…

I opened this issue several months ago: https://github.com/HoloISO/issuetracker/issues/59

Personally I just have an old micro USB cable I cut the end off of and soldered solid-core wire to. Just plug the USB-A end into a battery bank and the wires into the breadboard rails and you’ve got a stable 5V supply. I rarely needed 3.3V on a breadboard, but when I did I usually had a 5V to 3.3V voltage translator already on the board which was enough to get by.

Any sort of op-amp circuit would easily make use of a 15V input, or better yet using the full 20V with a 10V reference to get +/-10V voltage rails for an amplifier circuit.

I think it’s just a very unfortunate auto-cropped thumbnail

As long as the labels don’t end up on absolutely everything like in California. It makes sense on things you actually consume, but a lot of other tech products and tools have the California warnings and it’s become meaningless to me.

I have no way of knowing if just holding a thing increases my risk of cancer or if it’s just an issue if I was to lick a surface or consume something inside. I mean, aluminum apparently causes cancer?!? What can I even do with that information?

Edit: I read the wrong list, Aluminum is fine but other metals like Lead and Nickel are bad. The problem is the labels don’t tell you what the danger is. Does the product have a literal lead weight inside that you’ll never touch? Or is the outside coated in one of the other 600 cancer causing chemicals?

Crazy that wood dust is on there. That explains why basically all IKEA furniture “may cause cancer”

the comic itself is stupid

The comic isn’t so much a criticism as it is a comedic observation of what happens in the real world.

At least that’s how I interpret it.

Transported in the same truck as a lime once.

I definitely agree, but I was expecting you to compare with something more expensive. Personally I really like Spindrift, but it’s like 2x the price. On the other hand, you can’t beat tap water for value (or filtered water depending on your local water quality).

At this point, to me, “AAA” features means it’s full of microtransactions, predatory marketing, and lootbox gambling.

I’ve been trying to motivate myself to go out for walks more. I really enjoy hiking, but especially over the winter, the weather is always an easy excuse not to go out (I’m in the PNW, so winter means rain).

I just bought some nice waterproof hiking shoes that will take away at least one excuse. I’d get wet feet using running shoes, and cleaning mud off was a pain too. Having the right equipment can make going out way more pleasant. (Also it can be exciting to try out new shoes or whatever it is)

Likewise, AirDrop should have been a drone-based delivery service. Maybe they could partner up!
