    Maybe this is just my consumer perspective but I feel like TomTom really missed on a pivot to other GPS-related products that Garmin has successfully nailed. 10-15 years ago both c…

    Controversial means "of, relating to, or arousing controversy [1]", it doesn't mean the existence is disputed. E.g. a controversial drug, controversial news report, controversial r…

    The (now discontinued) iMac Pro officially supports 256 GB of RAM. 3rd party RAM resellers claim it will work with 512 GB. I assume any M1 or M2 replacement would support at least …

    Fair enough, I used "home" but it could just as easily be anywhere else the car is stored: garage, office building, even public streets maybe. Going to a filling station is just to…

    I'm not sure the "gas station on every corner" model is going to transition to the EV world. First of all many people will do the bulk of their charging at home, so paying for a ch…

    I agree, the USB-A form factor is by far the most widely used peripheral connector in the history of computers. The shift from USB-A to USB-C is without precedent. Practically ever…

    The purpose is to put more of the daylight hours in the evening when people are able to enjoy it. And/or when it may reduce the use of electricity (though studies show it probably …

    I actually think the range is one of the least impressive things about the Tesla. They just spent a lot of money and put a really big battery in there. Yes the range makes it very …

    Many luxury car shoppers are not that concerned with reliability since they plan on only owning the car for a few years. 3 year leases are common and even those who buy a vehicle o…

    These are not the associations I have with the "Visual" MS branding (for what it's worth).

    You don't need a C wire for the Nest, although if you have one it's recommended to use it. The Nest has a small internal battery and can trickle-charge from the R and W wires.

    It's not clear to me whether this solution is stable. The air flow looks very turbulent. Maybe if the air vents are blowing at a slightly different speed or if you have a few empty…

    I don't think Apple gives two hoots about VM support. They only released Bootcamp because it cost them almost nothing, but I think they would drop it in a heartbeat if it let them …
