It’s not new technology you numpty.
It’s not news. It’s not a scientific paper. Wireless energy transfer isn’t “bullshit”, it’s been an understood aspect of physics for a long time.
Since you seem unable to grasp the concept, I’ll put it in bold and italics:
This is a video of a guy doing a DIY project where he wanted to make his setup as wireless as possible. In the video he also goes over his thoughts and design considerations, and explains how the tech works for people who don’t already know.
It is not new technology.
It is not pseudoscience.
It is a guy showing off his bespoke PC setup.
It does not need an article or a blog post. He can post about it in any form he wants.
Personally, I think showcasing this kind of thing in a video is much better than a wall of text. I want to see the process, the finished product, the tools used and how he used them.
It’s a YouTube channel that does high quality DIY projects, and explains the reasons behind the choices made.
Why would this be an article as opposed to, y’know, a video? His job is to make YouTube videos.
I don’t understand this obsession some on Lemmy have with shitting on hard-working creative types when they make something in video form rather than creating a blog and publishing articles.
Google makes a lot of money, and summarising stuff uses a surprisingly small amount of energy. You can do it trivially on-device on a laptop and on plenty of phones.
When it comes to LLMs, training the models is generally the thing that requires ridiculous amounts of energy.
This is dumb as fuck, though. I don’t want Google’s LLM to miss out critical details in my emails. That shit could be important. If people want this they should opt in.
7·9 days agoManjaro keeps popping up on devices, and I don’t understand how they keep getting these deals.
It’s seemingly the only thing they are competent at doing.
It’s so frustrating that we have all this technology, and we choose to use it for bad purposes.
Alyx is not HL3, and I don’t get it when people say it is.
HL2E2 ended and we were left partway through a story that never received an ending.
You are genuinely the first other person I’ve ever seen online who seems aware that this was an industry-wide thing, not a VW thing.
If it makes you feel any better, all brands had illegally high emissions. People only tie it to VW so much because they were the first to be tested, and they owned up to it, meaning media could call them out on it without fear of libel.
VW wasn’t even close to the worst offender.
A human also (hopefully anyway) wouldn’t drive if you put a cone over their head.
Like yeah, if you purposely block the car’s vision, it should refuse to drive.
I think I will. Thanks for your input though.
For example, coming into effect in 12 days, on the 20th of June, for smartphones and tablets:
Durability: Devices should be resistant to accidental drops and protected against dust and water.
Battery longevity: Batteries must endure at least 800 full charge and discharge cycles while retaining at least 80% of their original capacity.
Repairability: Manufacturers must make critical spare parts available within 5 to 10 working days, and continue offering them for 7 years after the product is no longer sold in the EU.
Software support: Devices must receive operating system upgrades for at least 5 years from the end-of-sale date.
Repair access: Professional repairers must have non-discriminatory access to any required software or firmware.
They will also have to include a sticker on packaging that has standardised information on it concerning energy efficiency, battery life, repeated drop test results, battery endurance in charging cycles, repairability score, and water/dust protection rating:
