Great, but part of the point is that the renter needs to be able to hook and unhook the attachment by themselves without the need of a crane, and you just can’t do that with a roof-mounted battery that probably weighs several hundred pounds..

I’ve always thought that location controls should not only be for on/off but also for *granularity* of location because not all apps need your location down to the centimeter.. ie, while a maps or navigation app does need your precise location to get to you where you want to go; something like a weather app, on the…

My dad had a VW Beetle fixation back in the 70's/80's and the last VW he had was one of these with the semi-auto stick.. This eventually became my first car... It died for some reason which I can’t recall and we took it apart but never really got around to putting it back together again and the last I remember of that…

Although the whole story isn’t known and Google’s anti-union stance is quite clear, in this case, based only on the facts known to-date, I would unfortunately have to side with Google here.. She did make use of her access to send a pro-labour message using employer resources that were meant for a very different…

Finally!! Modern touch screen UI design is horrible for critical tasks.. Everyone wants the Star Trek:TNG UI look, and a number of misguided idiots even wrote papers praising the UI design, but from a practical perspective, most touch screen UIs are horrible..

Forget about debating which system is better/easier, but I find it absolutely hilarious that certain of the low-IQ portion of the US population insist on calling Imperial units “Freedom Units”, despite the very name “Imperial” belying the origin of the system in Conquest and Empire, the very opposite of “Freedom”.. By…

In terms of location, I’ve always been of the opinion that devices need to provide geolocation APIs that provide not just an on/off permission, but the ability for a user to specify the granularity of location accuracy that an app can ask for/receive.

The test chart is also a great analogous example of how the EHT (Event Horizon Telescope) works.. You don’t actually need 100% areal coverage in order to reconstruct an image, whether in the optical spectrum or radio frequency spectrum..

Freddy will buy it..   Forget the Ferrari, I want to see this thing completed!

The biggest problem with 2FA is that often you cannot use them at work (USB devices prohibited).. This is where the older RSA-style one-time code devices still have application.

Neither does Sir Terry, apparently.. Despite the clickbaitish implication of the title, the story says that all he actually did was to dig up the ore (if that’s to be believed- more likely, he had a lackey do that for him as well if you go by the rest of the story).. He then had a “friend” do the actual smelting, then…

“People ask us what makes it so good,”

So was JJ Abrams involved in any way or did the director just go the same school of lens flare?

Maybe they were beta-testing the “UBeam” ultrasonic charger

And this is why critical control systems like aircraft still use so many buttons and switches vs. stupid dynamic touchscreen control. Once you learn where a control is and what it does, it becomes automatic to use it, whether for routine operations or during an emergency.

Works great until the screw backs out and you lose every single one of your keys.. Nothing wrong with the traditional split keyring..

What we really want to know is that if he got all those old tapes and CDs, did he also get the contents of the toilet with the van?

For the record, I am not a Trump supporter.

Because males could get “distracted”, females have to “cover up”?? As a man, I find this way of thinking completely idiotic.. At the risk of getting flamed into oblivion, in my mind, this is probably how the tradition of the hijab/niqab got started: some “man” couldn’t keep it in his pants and blamed it on women,…
