The graphs on this look really close to how the ones in iStat Menus 6 look. I love the aesthetics of this app and how it shows all the graphs, but wonder if it has the ability to s…

At least a few years ago the UltraFine 5K monitor on display in the Apple Store connected to the 2018 Mac Mini exhibited some odd behaviour. Not sure if it was Thunderbolt but it w…

Not much buzz about the sound quality yet, but it looks like a solid attempt. Force cancelling passive radiators with what looks like back suspension too, but I wonder if it will h…

I guess this is one of the reasons running the command manually actually requires the --no-preserve-root flag on some systems, anyway

When it comes to anything Bluetooth and speakers I tend to look at Oluv's Gadgets on YouTube first, since that guy actually posts frequency response measurements of a wide variety …

Might be unrelated, but when I visit this page in a private browsing session on iOS 14 and play the video I get a modal saying Facebook would like to use cookies and website data, …

This works well for me if the price is known in the beginning, but it probably necessarily varies. Perhaps itdoesn't matter in fine dining contects tho.

Any chance of macOS support?

I would think that it would have to be a syntactically simple language. The human brain isn't super efficient at processing instructions in the traditional CPU sense, so it would p…

Now if only they would rewrite the web application too, or release that desktop app they were talking about last year. The web app is much, much slower than the phone app.

People DO do this. This is how things like iPhone Cake/AppCake work (and all the other "alternate" app stores). They register up a bunch of enterprise certs under some weird innoce…

Modern Intel notebook processors like these are likely running close to 80W and 65 steady state - They've got up to 8 cores to do this. Measurements by Notebookcheck seem to sugges…

This type of scenario shouldn't require "smart" home hardware - Traditionally situations like this were addressed by wired/wireless SCADA networks or BACnet or similar protocols. T…

Wouldn't it be trivial for the company to track where the SIM is being used to find out who's done this?

Slightly OT, but have you managed to actually find an acceptable quality USB power bank (PD/Type C or otherwise) that actually supports this "UPS mode" of operation? Most of the on…

I wonder what the server/rack version of this will look like inside. I'm guessing fairly similar. It's interesting to see desktop machines move back to the BTX model of thermal des…

Based on my past experiences I find that "x" amps of rated charging current often is more of a cap on the total input current. Samsung devices (this is a Note 5 btw) limit charge c…

USB isolators (single port) can be bought cheaply on eBay but may be bandwidth limited. They use a small isolated DC-DC brick and a USB isolation chip, probably with internal isola…

I was under the impression the Nokia that did this failed because it ran Windows Phone and not Android.

Most Linuxes attempt to detect a HiDPI screen (hi resolution basically) nowadays but you cannot do fractional scaling as easily as you could on a Mac, especially on Wayland. You ca…

You may be able to go into the Picture settings and see if there are colour temperature settings, or calibration settings that you could reduce the Blue and Green channels on to ta…
