Shade, cooler Air in summer, better protection against rain… 🤷‍♂️ Trees are 😎

It wasn’t allowed in the US? Wow. Didn’t know that. In EU it’s available since about ten years. Current systems have high definition projectors with >1 million pixels which can display nearly everything on the street before you.

My CCR time is some years ago. I probably missed something. :)

Is this a JJ-CCR on the picture? The best thing about these are the stands. Had an APD CCR some time ago. Good CCR, but the missing ability to just let it stand by itself was shit.

One big reason for my replacement last year was th camera. The X camera was nice back then… but now? No. Too much capabilities missing.

And of course 5G is quite ok. I like the dynamic island, 120 Hz screen, and some other features.

My old X ist still lying on the desk and works. But I retired it after 5 solid years of work.

Someone should create himself a reminder in 7 years to check if Google good this promise and still provides major OS updates for this Pixel.

Apple delivered 5 major iOS updates to the iPhone X + the whole iOS 16 lifecycle with probably some additional security updates in the next 1-2 years. Let’s see how many updates the new iPhone 15 (Pro) models will get. I expect not less.

Promise is promise.

You could just put it in mWh. BAM, bigger number.

3000 mAh * 3.7V = 11.100 mWh Much bigger. Much better.

I hate mAh… it’s absolutely no information how much energy is inside without taking the voltage into account. If you use directly (m)Wh, you directly have the amount of energy the battery can contain.

Luckily the Discovery came from the past and saved everyone with the funghi-drive. :)

Discovery had some nice ideas but… well. Alone the constant drama and crying Michael Burnham made the series quite unattractive.

Also the story behind the great Dilithium Explosion. Well. A sad, and alone child. Well. They could have thought about something better.

There were better ST series.

A lot of incredible science would be involved. And much much more money and a lot of time.

If we (humanity) could achieve that, that would be really cool.

But: how much solar-, wind- and battery-farms could we built with the same money and in much less time?

Fusion is great, but it will probably not be the solution of the energy demand we currently have. Nevertheless it’s something we should pursue furthermore. But we shouldn’t bet everything on it.

Also that’s the same for Lemmy for me. Since Memmy and Mlem are in the AppStore (where I preferred Memmy), I use Lemmy much more and haven’t opened Reddit since 1st July.

So, as long as there aren’t any major high class mobile Apps for firefish, I don’t expect it getting anywhere near to mastodon.

What about mobile apps? I’m on mastodon, but I basically never see the mastodon UI as I stick with Ivory (as I’m a former Tweetbot User on some ancient Microblogging Plattform which has transformed to something… else).

I don’t want to use some „nice looking“ Webpages which are optimized for mobile screens. I want dedicated Apps, as they offer mostly the much better experience.

I think the recent run of developing high class Mastodon Apps earlier this year (as the mentioned ancient Plattform kicked them out) gave mastodon an enormous boost.

Could be worse.

„… which is rapidly becoming the de facto charging standard in North America and Europe.“

Wait? Europe? I have never heard of anyone in Europe switching to NACS. Europe is all CCS2, even Tesla uses CCS2. Only Model S and X are using a custom Tesla-Solution which is based on the Typ2 AC-Connector. An probably switch to CCS2 in the next generation cars.

So, definitely no NACS in Europe as far as I know.

Interesting. Apple itself says, „Apple Watch Ultra has a water-resistance rating of 100 meters“.

If even being officially able to dive until 40m and use the Ultra as a dive computer, doesn’t make it waterproof but just water-resistant?

What does it need to be waterproof? Being able to dive down the Marianne Trench?

Well… for iPhones (and other smartphones) I’m not sure if anything changes. There is a exception in the regulation: if the device is waterproof, it is enough if the manufacturer or repair shops can change the battery for you. They do not need to be user replaceable.

But probably for MacBooks, there will be replaceable batteries in the future. I don’t see, how Apple will find a way around this regulation.

Apple Watch: they are waterproof —> nothing changes.

AirPods: well… are they waterproof? I don’t see user changeable batteries ever. Perhaps they will become waterproof in the future too? :) AirPods, now also for swimming and diving!

iPads: well: probably there will be changeable batteries in the future. Or we will have underwater Tablets soon. We just need another input method. Probably gestures like the VisionPro?

Oh… damn. I thought they were still on the same basis. Sorry, my fault. :(

Well… the question should be: where does all this electric charge come from? I you harvest it from humidity in the Air, the charge would removed. Thus, you have to replace the humidity in the air with fresh, „charged“ humidity.

Is there any natural effect, that this works automatically? Or do you need a fan? How much energy would that need?

Too much questions, too less details for a too simple solution.

Well… isn’t it more WebKit vs. rest instead of Chrome vs. Firefox?

I’m mainly using safari privately Edge at work. Both are WebKit and I don’t have any problems.

I don’t think passwords have to be changed very often. When you use a password manager and 30 character random generated passwords (or why not 64 characters or even more if the site allows it) separately for each site. If there isn’t a breach: why should I change the password?

That’s a singular used very complex password which only my password managers knows changed against another singular used very complex password which only my password manager knows.

If it is long enough, even brute force shouldn’t be a problem if someone is trying every single combination possible for 30 or more characters (where he doesn’t know how much characters he has to find). 🤷‍♂️
