Even if you don’t personally work on it, it still matters. If there are 100 repair shops in your area, there is competition that controls the price they can charge you. If you don’t like their price, you can try a different one. But without a right to repair, now only 2 of those are “authorized” to work on your car,

Where this could be truly helpful is for the glass that covers any vision system utilized by self-driving or braking assistance technology. The driver might not be aware of a chip or crack in that area, which could seriously affect the safety provided by the assistance technology. Just don’t try to detect in an area

I remember looking forward to the annual Best catalog. It wasn’t a toy store, specifically, but a department store like Sears. But they had a great toy section.

Always glad to see a standard size used instead of custom shaped battery packs for every different model.

Verify. Me?

Hello... my-name is.. Werner Brandes

I think at this point, even if they want to rebuild, they still need to demolish it first. It’s just too dangerous to try to save, unfortunately, with the huge platform hanging by a thread, as it were.

Oh man, I was so looking forward to that deduction.

Even without kids, that little seat on the full size cart makes a perfect place for eggs, tomatoes, or anything else you don’t want to get squashed.

How is the rest of the world handling it now?

Old Qualcomm, Motorola, and Ericsson phones had some very non-standard connectors, and often a new design for each model.

Part of the article already mentions how much progress has been made on other types of devices. Smartwatches are an outlier at this point. Most phones, cameras, and even a lot of laptops now use USB-C for power.

Qi requires a coil 30mm x 44mm, and I don’t think most people want a watch that big. A smaller coil is possible, but will be less efficient and create more heat. A smaller coil requires additional turns of wire in the coil, and still can not be much smaller than the transmitting coil.

My step mom had this concept of a “weird list” that everybody had. Between her, my dad, my brother and I, each of us had a different “weird list” which was mostly food aversions. It was just accepted as part of everyone being different in various ways.

Not all allergies are a foreign substance. It could be any substance that the immune system thinks is foreign, (or for the pedantic, since cells don’t “think”, something that is misidentified as a threat.) even if your own body makes it infrequently. In this case it might be a hormone that is triggered by the cold.

Then check out that second sub-project I linked to, which makes a Raspberry-Pi emulate a standard USB mouse and keyboard, so you could use it even on a computer that you can’t install software on.

I still remember my Commodore Plus 4, which had the built in word processor and spreadsheet. It was slightly slimmer, and had arrow keys! Unfortunately it was a few years before I got the floppy disk drive for it.

It’s probably not a ghost. But if it is, don’t forget to take a picture.
