Nice, it’s a good upgrade. I’ve been enjoying it so far. Still miss the microSD, but it’s got so much internal that I don’t think I’ll care much. Did you use the $100 off accessories? The Galaxy Buds 2 pro were discounted by $130.

Just upgraded through Samsung Direct to the s24 Ultra from note 20 ultra. They have really good deals right now. Its probably the last opportunity to get $550 trade in on the n20u.

It might be that I don’t leave the PC on all the time, I just hit sleep. But still, it shouldn’t strong arm me into updating after a day or two of the download. Also hate having to RegEdit Edge off the thing after each one.

Win 11 Pro user here. It doesn’t care what time you set for updates, it’ll do them when it feels like anyway, or annoy the piss out of you with notifications.

Over 10k miles here, not a scratch. My brother though, he’s biffed it at 45mph. Got back up and kept riding. These things are awesome

Those use cases already exist to an extent with current products. I use google translate every day on the jobsite, google maps already provides step by step navigation, youtube videos guide me on car repair, smart sensors with phone and smartwatch alerts for almost anything you can imagine, rollable and thin film transparent displays for walls and windows. Its hard to see AR/VR overtaking existing technologies except for niche use cases. The tech is gonna have to advance well past 2030 projections to be both cheap and feasible for practical use. Batteries will need an order of magnitude higher energy density and microchips will need to pass the teraFLOP barrier while consuming less than a watt of power, all while fitting into a comfortable and unobtrusive form factor suited for long term daily use. I don’t see that happening anytime in the next decade honestly.

The cost has shot up and down post COVID. Cat6 is typically the better option as it uses thicker conductors. Cat6 is 23ga iirc. I paid $85 for 1000ft on my last project

Didn’t realize that was part of the spec. But wouldn’t that be 4 devices? 2 wires per device for tx/rx and power +/-.

I love PoE, but there are some hard limitations to that idea. Mainly cost per meter of cable, but also in the amount of runs that would need to be completed to accomplish that. I cant splice two ethernet cables together and run one to a nearby light or other device without a switch, which means more equipment or more cable to make it work. Also, being 48v, it will have a lower overall efficiency compared to direct wiring with 110-220v, especially with the higher resistance of ethernet vs 14ga romex. That being said, I’d love to see 48v dc in home outlets.

reWASD is my go to for this reason. It emulates an xbox controller and they cant see the difference on their end.

I thought the same thing. Was looking for the overall color temperature of the scene, but none really fit.

Dude, they ARE the advertiser. That’s Google’s main business. They have no incentive to export ANY of your account data to 3rd parties. Business tell them what groups of people to advertise to, and their systems handle the rest. They’re open about how it all works.

I hated the transition. Tried every service afterwards and stuck with Amazon for a year or so until a bug on their end wiped all my recommendations and playlists. I gave YouTube music a shot and am pleasantly surprised by how far it’s come. The auto generated playlists are spot on to my tastes and all my playlists from the GPM days were there. They fixed a lot of the UI problems too. For me, the price isn’t bad at all for what they offer.

Unfortunately, if there’s any hope of lemmy really taking off, they’ll come eventually. All popular sites and services have to deal with it at some point.
