- Comment on True Wireless Power is FINALLY here (building a TRULY wire-free desk setup) 5 hours ago:
This method uses magnetic resonant coupling (vs inductive which is how wireless charging works on your phone). The difference is the transmitter and receiver are both tuned LC circuits that operate at their resonant frequency, which is why this works over the impressive range shown in the video. It would have efficiencies around 80% mark based on what I could find. But yeah for RFI, this would definitely be worse than something like normal Qi charging, which operates in the 100s of KHz, while this operates in the MHz. But I think the manufacturers page says this is FCC certified? So might be not too bad.

Yet another person commenting without having watched the video.

Wireless peripherals and any wireless data transfer protocols are completely irrelevant to the content of this video, which is centred around wireless power transfer.
Also wireless peripherals are pretty great, not sure what you’re on about.

This game is primarily aimed at kids, so it probably wouldn’t be a great look to be have that word on a post by their official twitter account.

There’s no way that this is actually real right??

Very surprised that this is the only comment in this thread mentioning Nutanix.

I’m surprised I haven’t seen Nutanix mentioned at all here tbh. Direct competitor to VMware.
- Comment on Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April 2 months ago:
It’s against CloudFlare ToS to use CF tunnels for media streaming like this. You can risk it ig but I have important stuff like domain registrations on CloudFlare so I’m personally not willing to risk getting banned.

Transferred all my domains from nanecheap to CloudFlare and I’m saving like 1/3 of price on renewals.
- Comment on Kindle Is Making It Harder to Switch to Rival eReader Brands. 3 months ago:
I switched from the default reader to koreader, and now I have dark mode (mine is probably about 8 years old and did not originally have this feature). Koreader has so many features and qol improvements compared to the default Kindle experience.
- Comment on What can I actually do with 64 GB or RAM? 3 months ago:
Yeah this is exactly me. Also a quick tip, if you’re on windows, there are some registry tweaks you can do to help prevent the GUI slowing down when lots of programs are open at once.
- Comment on What can I actually do with 64 GB or RAM? 3 months ago:
I built my PC recently and splurged to get about 100gb of ddr5, thinking it was going to be a waste of money.
I couldn’t have been more wrong, there are occasionally times when I’m almost running out of memory. How? Multiple desktops, each with tons of programs and stuff open, including probably like several hundred Firefox tabs open at the worst of times.
Basically, extra ram has allowed me to kinda postpone the responsibility of having the close programs, maintain cleanliness, etc. I still have to stay organised using desktops so I don’t go crazy with the number of things I have open, but I’m the limiting factor here, not my computer. And that’s a super liberating feeling.
TL;DR: you can NEVER have too much ram.

Yeah, your brain is not doing projectile motion equations in real time, it’s the same process as teaching a neutral network to approximate a parabola.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s incredibly impressive that this prediction in our brain requires the visual processing of data from eyes to identify an object flying through the air, moving our hand in a perfect intercept course to catch it. All without having to have a ton of data points to ‘train’ on.

- Comment on Steam games will now need to fully disclose kernel-level anti-cheat on store pages 7 months ago:
And you can’t even check what it’s really doing on your computer because it’s a crime under US law.
Is this specifically for kernel level anticheat? Because this isn’t a thing for software in general right??

- Comment on REPORT: Arm is sensationally canceling the license that allowed Qualcomm to make Snapdragon chips which power everything from Microsoft's Copilot+ PCs to Samsung's Galaxy smartphones and tablets 7 months ago:
If Qualcomm released a FOSS RISC-V IP core that would’ve required spending multiple millions on hardware engineer salaries (no chance in hell), I would:
- Spontaneously ejaculate
- Pull out my FPGA

takes this opportunity to develop a high performance RISC V core
They might. This would never be open sourced though. Best case scenario is the boost they would provide to the ISA as a whole by having a company as big as Qualcomm backing it.
