What a poor take. I’ve been trying g to find the right balance between performance, battery, and heat/sound for business use. Intels previous gen under performed, AMD ran hot, and neither were good with battery.

Jumping from 10hrs to 18hrs in testing is huge, with real world use likely going from 4-8 hrs. Getting an all-day battery is a win that only Apple and snapdragon have been able to do.

32gb is fine for most

Nope. The jump in battery life is impressive.

If you want to really tinker there is a uConsole kvm project.

If it’s an intel cpu you might have vapor, which is a native kvm. If you have AMT then I think you get kvm to the bios but it won’t give you kvm once the OS boots.

Dodge the handshake and go right in for the French kiss.

I’ve known two people that sleep very little. One was a guy from google that managed a team and also taught and did other stuff.

I was doing the math and it didn’t make sense so I asked him about it and he said that he only slept 5 hours a day and it’s stressful on his family life, and that his dr keeps telling him it’s not healthy.

The other person was someone that ran the company I worked for. I could tell by the remote access logs that he was going inactive around 2am and then would be back on by 6am. It didn’t seem possible and as a security concern I talked to him about it. He said that he barely sleeps. I verified it by talking to his assistants.

Both of these people were extremely successful in their careers. I think it’s some sort of OCD that they’ve harnessed.

Maybe Big Rope is silencing people.

The don’t survive to tell the tale.

Still got my $20 refund too.

Honestly how did two wires on old phones power the phone, got it to ring, hold a two-way conversation, and also dial out? Only two wires?!?

I took a class at college on it and the mystery was revealed but I’m still convinced it’s magic.

Yup. Also, shingles presents on one side of the body, not both. This is because it’s following a branch of your nervous system.

Also if you have a rash that’s “tingling” then call a doc and get on some antivax, it will cut down the length and strength of your symptoms significantly.

Shingles isn’t usually contagious to people that have had it or chickenpox.

The chickenpox/shingles lifecycle amazes me. It’s like it was designed to not be stamped out like smallpox through normal methods.

The chickenpox vax changed the game though, and it’s possible the generation that got vaxd will result in a significant reduction in shingles and more importantly a reduction in shingles pharmaceutical advertising.

You don’t use the breakdown lanes? Rookie move.

Tracking inventory is literally one of its primary use cases.

The default channel is usually populated enough and I think nodes relay other channels using lora too.

My range to the next node is 7 miles.

AirTags work but chirp and thieves know to dump them.

Could California simply sink ships and rigs and say it was terrorists or drug cartel?

Buy a few t1000 to see how it works and if you have any other nodes in your area. If you do you’ll have decent coverage.

The t1000 doesn’t have amazing battery life but I think there’s devices that are dedicated to gps tracking that last a lot longer.

I have helium nodes near me. Not sure how blockchain fits in, but they offer money if you donate your wifi or LoRa, and you can buy service to use that wifi or LoRa.

I like the idea but WiFi doesn’t have the range to be very useful except maybe in an apartment building.

Meshtastic. Be sure to set it up to not broadcast your precise position over the default channel.

Here is an example.

Because insurance doesn’t work like a normal product or good.

What ends up happening is they charge as much as they possibly can. The book “an American sickness” explains all the problems if you’re interested.

The ACA was never going to be great. It was the best that could get passed.

Does not scale well.
