  But I guess here the demographic is a little older than my example so it might not apply

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple 15 relegated to USB 2.0 unless you buy the Pro⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s a valid point.

  Also is there’s a USB3 controller at all in the phone to connect the camera inside the phone? Or does the camera talk on a different bus on the SoC?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple 15 relegated to USB 2.0 unless you buy the Pro⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t use data on the USB port very often and when I do it’s always to make an access point over USB so the USB2.0 bandwidth is enough for my use.

  I wonder if people really have a use for USB3.

  Apart from making phone more expensive, I don’t see a real need for me

  I’m always amazed at how much you pay for internet in the US and Canada. Here in France, fiber vs copper is usually the same price maybe a 5-10 euros/month difference depending on the ISP

  How does that solve the bandwidth issue?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is charging electric car at holiday house "theft"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Depends on where you live and what you rent. Here, in France, it’s a lot cheaper to rent a full house for a week vacation for 2 families (let’s say 4 adults 5 kids) than renting 2 or 3 hotel rooms.

  Also at Airbnb you have a full house with commodities which you don’t at an hotel. So to the rice of the room you need to add restaurants and laundry costs.

  There are alternatives in France, other renting networks which predate Airbnb. But Airbnb killed the market because it’s so easy for the renter and the owner

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Victoria bans gas connections in new homes from 2024⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  French here, we have the same kind of regulation since 2020 I believe.

  Do you produce gas in Australia?

  Here it’s all imported (and it was mostly from Russia before the Ukraine war) and we produce electricity mostly from nuclear plants so it’s easy to push gas out the homes.
