On mine, Apple TV+ (the official app as well as Safari) will refuse to play 4K through a similar adapter (VMM7100) on an OLED C2 42 from Cable Matters with the latest 120Hz support…

The Google Nest Audio speakers are kind of a special case. They only sound good because they use a sealed, extremely rigid cast aluminum sealed enclosure with a high excursion driv…

The YouTube link that starts with RJUvNV, titled "(a). sip" IMO, the first track is a banger (I really like it), and it doesn't sound obviously AI. The second track is more obvious…

https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/sysadmin/HowWeSellS... Perhaps the most interesting (though sort of irrelevant) part from a linked page on the site is that "cloud" storage…

I remember this from a few years ago, when I requested the code for this from Charlie Miller on Twitter/X (he replied with a link to the code on archive.org). I was trying to use i…

FWIW, if this was somewhat recent, Gamers Nexus recently did a segment [1] on ASUS' warranty support and practices, and they say that they are making some improvements to the way w…

Unless they changed something, in Canada I was able to try the AirPods Pro and the Pro 2 in store. They sanitize them between customers (IMO, not very well) with alcohol wipes. You…

I've been playing with Cursor (albeit with a very small toy codebase) and it does seem like it could do some of what you said - it has a number of features, not all of which necess…

So apparently this is actually configurable, but it's either on or off, and it's set to one minute by default (either 1 minute or no shutdown, no inbetween). The command in questio…

The BitLocker thing is definitely a problem. On Apple systems which have a similar FDE system, the preboot environment will shut the machine down if the page is left open for too l…

Most of these built-in fridges have some (non-obvious) method to remove them from the wall fairly easily. Typically, built in fridges are mounted using a couple screws (check the m…
