It’s the movie equivalent of trolling.

around 38C

I was shocked when my new realme, which uses the same tech, didn’t even break 30°C while charging at 8+ Amps (should be around 80W). This was in a relatively warm room (25°C) and using the case that came with it, which surely doesn’t improve thermals. It gets warmer when charging from other sources with only 2-3A, like USB-PD or QuickCharge.

Coupled with the fact that it’s only accurate if you are constantly charging from below 15% to 100%, these are ranges that I rarely get my phone into.

AccuBattery needs a session to have 60% charged, so <20% to 80% works. Doesn’t need to be every single one. I actually asked support about it and they said this was the lowest percentage they were comfortable with. I was requesting to make it adjustable.

Accuracy of the measurement isn’t the entire point. I see the same issue, but since it helps track relative degradation over time it can still add value by giving more information when you suspect the capacity is getting worse.

Your Wi-Fi also needs a cable if you want to be pedantic.

The benefit is that there is no overhead involved, in theory you don’t even have to think about charging your phone ever again. When it’s not in use, just leave it on some of the dedicated places around the house and office that provide wireless charging.

If you don’t require it to replace cables it doesn’t need to. For adding some energy to the device while it’s on your desk or nightstand it works perfectly fine.

The efficiency issue is also exaggerated, phones don’t take much power to begin with. Anyone using AC or warm water for convenience is doing much worse in terms of spent energy.

Who needs to save characters that much?

Do you realize how old assembly language is?

It predates hard disks by ten years and coincided with the invention of the transistor.

Can’t spell America without ME.

You mean it wasn’t able to be saturated?

As slow as 2MBit/s is, relatively speaking, it’s still magnitudes better than dial-up.

I disagree that Gnome is intuitive on a fundamental level. They’re trying the Apple way of UI design without the millions in R&D.

That’s the point everyone making these memes is missing. If they actually had nukes already, none of this would be happening.

This offensive is supposed to make sure they don’t develop nuclear weapons, whether the reasoning is fabricated or not.

It doesn’t relay all traffic, that’s a fallback if a connection can’t be established.

Delayed start being limited to the app is horseshit.

I skimmed all the comments and it looks like I’ll be the first: Chrome. Not Chromium, or any fork. Just Google Chrome. Even on my Ubuntu HTPC.

I’ve used it since it was new and blew everything else out of the water for smoothness. Over time I’ve gotten used to features like sync and profiles, and tab groups. Now my life is too busy to put ideology over convenience, and since uBlock Lite seems to work fine for me on Manifest v3, I really don’t have a particularly strong reason to change.

My second browser is Firefox, but it’s literally only for NSFW things. To try migrating over, they would have to implement profiles better so that this can coexist with my main usage.

Sometimes I also use Edge to keep different logins, although I could also achieve the same with profiles on Chrome now.

External drives that I keep in my office at work. Also cloud storage.

Internally, their engineers need to know what they will be doing the next year or so. I’m not assuming any credibility for the leaks, just pointing out that it takes time until these things get on the shelves.

I disagree that they don’t know. This is the time to finalize what they want their 2027 iPhone to look like, especially if they’re making bigger changes where development might not be as straightforward as the yearly iteration for most aspects.

Your laptop may be 13 years old, but Apple is notorious for their walled garden and surely never officially supported Linux on it, or did they? So it’s probably the worst example.

Unless society as a whole is ready to move beyond capitalism that won’t change.

Energy density needs to increase for sure, but I see a point where cars charge fast enough that there will be less need to increase it further. I imagine it’ll look a lot like gas stations today, where they stop for a few minutes and leave again.

Most vehicles should be charging slowly at home anyways.

That’s a pretty snarky tone for dodging the actual question.

My parents raised me as the atheists they were. That too is an ethical/philosophical/moral personal choice they pushed onto me without me being able to object anything, right? They never asked me if I was an atheist, or not.

How do you raise a kid to be atheist? Not teaching them faith based topics is not the same as teaching them to be religious. It’s just the default setting.

That’s the fundamental problem with your post, regardless of your personal experience with “hardcore atheists” which sounds to me as if they were likely to lean into the “anti religious” angle.
