If the market weren’t in decline, maybe. But to pipedream a little: A standardized control board (imagine if it were something like an RPi), with modular carriage (available in several sizes, including capable of 11x17”…
Funny you use the word “shortsighted” - for screen readers to work right your web page had better be a bunch of text.
I detect a pun. _trombine_ is, according to Wiktionary anyway, a colloquial French word for _face_.
I think the bigger problem isn’t so much the traffic type as it is traffic destination. As long as there are only a few hosts or domains providing speed test services (and there always will be: upload speeds are…
Just needs a bit of creativity. There are plenty of “bedpost caps” and “espresso tampers”.
This might be slow, but what about using the lift gas in a fuel cell with atmospheric O2 for extra efficiency? You reduce the lift gas in the bags, and if you store the water aboard then you get extra ballast. You could…
Let’s start with 3 and start suing stoplight manufacturers.
Oh it does come from the network region/cells. In fact in the old days when the phones were the size of an actual brick they were probably powered by a proper multi-cell battery. (Did I miss a joke?)
The Optimus Maximus keyboard showed why OLED was a bad choice for the keyboard. Chyrosran22 did a review of a used one that had severe burn in on all the keys. It would be interesting if someone could make a screen key…
I’m curious what the new name will be. I want it to be International Cloud Business Machines (ICBM).
AIUI a single tunnel doesn’t scale, sure, but part of the Boring Company’s mission is to make the tunnels super cheap, so scaling up the system consists of adding additional parallel tunnels. I guess it’s like adding…
April 10, 2025 is when the penny should cease, so we can commemorate it on nickel/dime/quarter day 05/10/25. And yes, it should be April 10 and not October 05 because this will be an American holiday dang it.
I haven’t looked much at Gemini, but what if Markdown was the format? The raw text is decent and renders to PDF/HTML nicely. More importantly, it’s a well-established format with plenty of libraries available.
Given the levels of hubbub I’m seeing about Unilever getting off Facebook/Twitter for the year, this is striking me as an absolutely brilliant PR and marketing coup. Before today I didn’t know they were even a thing.…
Wasn’t the phone charger convergence driven by an EU mandate though?
> I remember using some car’s built-in GPS once and it wanted me to take every freeway exit and get right back on after. Because it decided that saves time/distance. It feels like cheating to the other drivers who…

Sure, but if starting with DC you can pulse on the order of hundreds if not thousands of Hz instead of 50/60Hz, which shouldn’t be noticeable.
