Thanks!

But why 45% specifically? What's so special about that number? It's not just the one panel either, it's a common budget colour space across…

You have it backwards, look at the graphs. 72% NTSC is approx 100% sRGB. I would love to know why 45% NTSC is so common though.

That's a good question. I confirmed last night that an S22 (Ultra) does not support it even with OneUI 6.0 / Android 14 installed. MEP…

Perfect, thank you!

Thank you for testing! So if you disable SIM 1, it works fine with both eSIM 1 and eSIM 2 enabled? If so, that's great, exactly what I was…

That's not quite the same thing as dual-eSIM, where you can have two different eSIMs active at the same time. That's the bit I'm interested…

I'm considering a new phone and want one that supports dual-eSIM. It's supported on the Pixel 8, and should be [part of…

Lower latency and better localised search results, primarily. Roaming sometimes means your connections get routed back to the issuer's…

Ah, that is unfortunate. I was looking at TravelKon who have an option for Docomo IIJ eSIMs, since local is usually my preference. Thanks…

What network do you use in Japan? Are they fully local or roaming?
08/02/2024 - 20:25
They wouldn't be, since the RCM is only required if it's above 50 V AC / 120 V DC.

All 100W needs is thick though power conductors and an eMarker chip to indicate the supported power level. Meanwhile higher transfer rates…

100Mbit ethernet is a joke for Skylake gen. Especially when small boards like this are likely to be used for home servers or media PCs.

Many years ago at the height of the Li-ion scare they replaced a new tablet with faulty speakers. But they needed me to send the old one…

70% works better as a disinfectant. Higher concentrations apparently act too fast and don't penetrate cell walls as effectively:…

100% (90%+) is typical for cleaning electronics (PCBs). 70% is best as a disinfectant. I suppose you could use it at 50% for general…

I actually find I end up further away from laptop screens, because they're attached to the keyboard and would require leaning down to be…

I've used them before in NUCs with constant writes that burn through a SSD's endurance. Boot speeds and high IOPS don't always matter for a…

The generation and therefore architecture matters far more. Any Atom-class uArch prior to Gracemont is pointless, and even Gracemont is…

Happened to a few of mine recently. First one resolved after a couple days and tracked/delivered as normal. The other one spent a week in…

It won't be cheap but a parcel forwarder might be your best bet. Keeps everything in the normal flow rather than trying to arrange a pickup…

Because there's a variant that does do PoE, and Amazon groups the two together. If you look at the subheading of those reviews they're for…

The device decides what voltage it wants and requests that from the power supply ("charger"). All negotiation is initiated by the device,…

The power supply is capable of those currents at those voltages. The device negotiates which voltage it wants with the supply, in this case…

Broadly similar to https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/790611, so baseline $235. The GPU seems to go average $130 used (ignore the low…

Yes, that is what I assumed. Still do, actually. > it caps out at 5V 3.5A per plug And how do you propose they did this? Keep in mind that…
09/10/2023 - 16:59
How do you expect it to? Do you really think they'd have the active electronics in the splitting component necessary to detect when there's…
09/10/2023 - 12:30
There's no way the cable can guarantee that. It'd be up to the user to make sure nothing connected will negotiate higher.
09/10/2023 - 12:20
> the fact you can charge using all three variants simultaneously That sounds dangerous. It might work if everything is at 5V, but if one…
