I think this falls under "[wanting] to know the user case the authors had in mind"

not that it really solves your problem, but any compliant USB-C to USB-C cable is required to support at least 60W of power and USB 2.0 speeds. Unfortunately, beyond that it gets p…

This is largely because early screen-space AO techniques weren't able to accurately estimate whether the pillar is freestanding (and shouldn't darken the wall) or if it is against …

Was it a built-in camera cover, or a third-party one? Apple specifically (and possibly other manufacturers?) recommends against third-party covers because the tolerance is so close…

This is a thread about the Cybertruck.

I live near this roundabout and drive through it almost daily. > Drivers going northbound on SR 203 traffic may need to yield twice – once when entering the roundabout and again if…

Unfortunately, it's not. Driving from right-to-left (in the first picture) requires drivers to enter the roundabout twice, then leave once. Judging by the amount of vehicle debris …

I'm not sure a machine that benchmarks half as fast as an M2 can be said to be in the same ballpark. MacBook Air (2022): https://browser.geekbench.com/macs/macbook-air-2022 Ryzen 5…

The Magic Trackpad comes with a USB-C (computer) to Lightning (Magic Trackpad) cable. https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MK2D3AM/A/magic-trackpad-... (I agree with you, for what it…

Related: the Ariane 5 rocket failed on its maiden flight because it reused code from its predecessor, which made an assumption that didn't apply to the higher-performance Ariane 5.…

It has been a while since they've talked about that price, and I would not expect it to be anywhere near that price point today, given .

The Rivian has a 4.5 foot bed[0] and the F-150 Lightning has a 5.5 foot bed[1]. I don't think it's fair to call Cybertruck a novelty item based on its capabilities, especially comp…

I completely agree - having four Thunderbolt ports was amazing, and I'm sad that one of them has become a dedicated HDMI port. I like the SD card slot, though, but even then I'd ra…

According to the USB-C spec page 37[0], even USB 2.0 C-to-C cables will support USB-PD at 3A (negotiated with the CC wire which is mandatory even on 2.0 C-to-C cables.) 0: https://…

4. Yes, all USB-C to USB-C cables can charge at a minimum of 60W which should be sufficient to charge almost anything 5. It depends, but the output capacity is printed on the power…

That wouldn’t prevent the case of “the module is swapped for one that unlocks no matter what, and upon noticing the phone isn’t unlocking, the owner resets and sets up Face ID agai…

The higher tiers allow you to link to a domain of your choosing. Would you expect the Godot team to ban links to gambling companies?

If a USB-C to USB-C cable only had wires for VCC and GND, here's what wouldn't work: * Data (this one is fairly obvious) * Power (since the CC wire in the cable is missing, and a c…

Tesla makes their service manuals available for free (you need to sign in and subscribe, but it’s free and didn’t require a payment method for me.) https://service.tesla.com/

It is trivial in the US if you're able to use Tesla's supercharger network.

CCS1 (the variant of CCS used in the US; basically J1772 + HVDC pins) has a lot of flaws that can't easily fixed in a backwards-compatible way: 1. It's gigantic, making it a lot ha…

If the 5.1k pull-down resistors are missing on the device side, it will not charge from a USB-C wall brick, laptop, etc. in either orientation, but it will work fine when charging …
