    If the local spray pilots aren't filing their paperwork and presumably not getting in trouble, isn't it reasonable that no one would care if you did the same? It sounds like no one…

    Humorously, I almost bought a brand new Model S in 2017 when they announced full self driving because I was so excited by the tech and the promises. Instead, I bought a used Model …

    In NACS the DC and AC pins are the same pins. The car only connects the charge port pins to either the AC/DC charger or to the DC battery after it communicates with the charger and…

    Fenix didn't die in LotV. Does every new harry potter book or movie that comes out reset the timer on spoiling that dumbledore dies? This isn't mickey mouse and disney extending co…

    Right? Like can we please get a user story on some agile board somewhere that says: "As a user, if the last 10 times I opened netflix I watched the same show , I should be shown th…

    It wasn't their fault, but the effects of lead on crime, personality, and mental health for that generation is clearly documented. So yes, that generation is remembered for it. I d…

    If you've used old style satellite internet and then used starlink, you'll know that this is not the same technology. Starlink has latency and bandwidth that doesn't even compare t…

    Actually USB is a great example. USB C can charge at 5v, 10v, 20v, etc. When you plug in a device to the charger a hand shake happens between the charger and device and they choose…
