    Lets ignore the open source FUD in the diagram.

    Apples to broccoli comparison. Besides what I mentioned being optional (I'm sure it has downsides, probably cost), comparing road legal cars with a supercar is... interesting.

    I'll need evidence of "Top power at Top Voltage." Since so little capacity is at that part of the curve, It'd make sense to design around (as in avoid, not feature) it rather than …

    I'd be interested in if you can even use dry fire suppression on the 5th floor of a building.

    Long winded admission that you might as well pay for google's email service.

    Yea. Fun, but not optimal for a product. 1000Hz is already comically faster than any human muscle reaction.

    I know the receivers are often in a vulnerable position. But, on my 2008 era car- the code I've seen for SDR decoding is a broadcast MAC, pressure and a temp value.

    I'm interested in... why? What are you building that loading data from disk is so lopsided vs CPu load from compiling, or network load/latency(one 200ms of "is this the current git…

    That's routine. Windows generally ends up nuking the OEM partitions if you do golden installs.

    Except, zero knowledge replication is why ZFE native encryption got funded. I believe it was Datto specifically.

    I'm not sure if anybody is wrong or right. But this should be officially documented, a specific error provided- not "permission denied", and a workflow to fix it that doesn't invol…

    Try disabling C states in the bios. My 5950x developed that issue, as did a friends 5600x.

    What are you thinking the crime would be? He bet his company on a literal toss of the dice instead of the routine figurative ones. Outside of Bribery and ?SarBox? (Whichever regula…

    It doesn't matter if it's true. And those spec sheets aren't what you'll find on amazon products. I looked at them, didn't see any mention of temperature. Also, stupid things use X…

    Haha, touché- forgot the Pi5 only has a single lane. The comment came out of knowing if the cable's a little dodgy the timing could be off- scrambling the PCIe signals (easier to j…

    Are they actually extra? Or does the other cable simply route them over coax? Answer here is to grab a couple SFF-???? Breakout boards, a scope, and a signal generator. Another thi…

    Suspiciously so. I'd love to see somebody(or somebodies) with an established reputation reverse the controller software & hardware.

    Likely a reference to the recent addition of sesame to the allergen disclosure legislation in the US, and the subsequent rampant over labeling. Nobody seems to remember a bunch of …

    Open circuit voltage is _very much_ widely considered to be the maximum. If its not spec'd openly as " at temp X" then it's reasonable to expect it to be invariant. "Voc 37v @ 25*C…

    That's humanity in general. But yea- general guide says "add up your open circuit voltage and don't exceed that." If something fails because of the panel manages to get more than 1…

    MosFET's or IGBTs are likely what failed. And, capacitance is something you do not want on a string of PV. DC starts getting really nasty to deal with somewhere between 36-52v, wit…
