You can set scheduled startup times, so maybe you can set it to startup at every noon and midnight, and then if the house power still isn’t on then the UPS will tell it to shutdown again. That way it’ll do a test every 6 hours

I’m sure the executives in charge of this decision will try to claim it was their plan all along to change the name then change it back to generate publicity. Obvious bullshit, but executives never take blame for their own mistakes. (Unless they were promised a big payout for publicly taking the blame)

I would guess that it would be forced to be taken down immediately, and then litigation would determine whether it can be put back up.

“It just feels wrong” isn’t a valid basis for morality. Lots of people say the idea of someone being gay just feels wrong. Lots of people say people being non-Muslim just feels wrong.

What’s the average lifespan for Asian executives? From what I’ve heard the “salaryman” lifestyle is pretty horrendous

Sooooo many potential applications!

In any use where size and or weight is important. For example wearables and flying drones

There are a few settings that make it better. Like enabling “brief mode” or something like that

Nah I’m sure that’s not gonna change, it’s effortless marketing lock-in for apple

My guess is he was doing it for the cred and the thrill. Any old joe shmoe can burn a disc copy after it’s already being sold to the public

Location services work inside the stations, and then from that known point the accelerometers, compass, cameras, mics, and other sensors will get you plenty close enough precision between stations

Hah i should’ve read the other comments first, you already wrote basically the same thing i did

Using very old generation pixel phones would probably be a LOT cheaper than multiple pieces of specialized hardware. Also presumably Google is the one creating the ai that actually makes the system do anything, so naturally they’re gonna use their own devices

Stop conflating “Jewish” with “Israel”.

NYC is going up to the 50’s this week! It’s gonna be the very low 50’s, and it’s just for a couple of days, and then it’s going back down to the 20’s again right after that, - but still! 50’s!

Which is also not technology.

This is definitely not technology

Oh, yeah that makes sense, thanks

Why? (Just out of my curiosity)

The only thing changing here is the way cables are going to be labeled, the tech itself is staying exactly the same.

And on top of that, the author was generally correct for most situations, but usb (and especially usb c) truly has replaced a ton of separate connectors with a single standard. And it’s very likely to continue to replace even more as time goes on
