Especially if Thunderbird is any indicator... What a dog.
This on top of everything else wrong with Mozilla these days. So they really think I'm going to trust them with my email?
It's abnormal.
That kind of speed requires 500hp+, depending on Cd and frontal area.
What percentage of cars produce 500hp+?
(I'm not even sure 500hp is enough, it's been a while since I've done the math).
Small increments in speed require non-linear increases in power.
Lol, Play is an exploit.
After 30 years in IT, I've seen 100x more systems taken down by updates than by exploits.
Actually, I've never had a system taken down by an exploit, 100% of outages have been caused by borked updates or changes.
I've had friends who's clients have been taken hostage by exploits, and 100% of those have been because of poor security practices and phishing - neither of which is preventable by updates.
Here's a question, if almost no-one sideloads or uses FDroid, where do people get the millions of malicious apps from? Play Store.
So where's the problem again? Oh, yea, Play Store.
Why does Play need Play Protect if practically all apps come from Play Store?
Haha, dammit, can your docs keep a straight face when you're conscious?
"Politically active" yet knows nothing about Cambridge Analytica 15 years ago. 🤦🏼
Ah, direct from Convoy. Kinda obvious, haha. Thanks
Nah, then stuff breaks.
At idle, SSD is usually better (like you said if the SSD has proper power management, and that takes research to know).
Spinning platters are generally still better for power per gig/terabyte, because write time they consume less power than SSD.
I dont really look at drive power consumption, because even with ~10 drives running in my environment, a single cpu doing anything moderate blows away their power consumption numbers (I've tested, not that it was needed, heat dissipation alone makes it clear).
I have a ten-year old 5 drive NAS that runs 24/7, and it's barely above room temp. Average draw is a few watts (the number was so low I put it out of my mind, maybe 5 watts - Raspberry Pi territory).
My SFF desktop is 12w at idle, with either 2 small SSDs (500GB each) or a single large drive (12TB). So much for SSD having better idle power.
SSD isn't necessarily less energy hungry than spinning platter.
It really depends on the specific units and use patterns.
Generally SSD has better idle power, and HD has better read and write power, but that doesn't even always hold true.
If your device sits idle long enough, SSD is better for power, but the write time to get to idle could easily consume the power differential.

Beat me to it. I always have the page up.
Best comment:
It’s an interesting article, but the title makes me think that if micro-USB ports are the banes of the author’s existence, she needs more banes in her life.
I've had 4x more USB C failures than micro (1 micro failure since 2009 and 4 C failures) and I've used micro for longer and across more devices, probably 10x more usage.
Sorry, C isn't nearly as robust. And it's supposed non-polar isn't true, I still have some cables that won't charge until they're flipped over. I have to verify a device is charging.
Shouldn't have ever been a mini connector though.
Haha, wow
It would probably help to define the terms you're using, as there are many ways to interpret "big place", "small place", "many people", etc.
I don't even know if your starting point is accurate.
Hey, according to Quantum Mechanics, the math works both ways!
One cramp or sneeze away from a really bad day
About damn time.
Ok, Dr. Evil!
You're not wrong!
I'm a fan of the martini - when I'm in the mood to drink. But make it gin, a good one like Boodles or some of the new stuff with citrus notes.
Another good shower thought today!
