Thanks, Logan.
  • Can also recomment "Sqwincher" (stupid name aside) products.

    https://www.sqwincher.com/products/single-serve-qwik-stik-zero/

    As they market primarily to people working in construction / other trades - and are therefore sold at the likes of electrical and safety supply stores - we buy them in bulk for when we're spending weeks installing racks of servers in our datacentre at work.

  • Is this a 2230 M.2 Slot?
  • it's essentially 2 PCI Express x1 lanes and USB 2.0

    Sometimes there's only a single PCIe lane though. And as you say, that's not a x2 but explicitly two x1s.

    No WiFi card needs the bandwidth (yet), at PCIe 3 speeds you've got around 7.8Gbps for a x1, and PCIe 4 double that.

    The Coral comes in a "dual" version for exactly this reason (https://coral.ai/products/m2-accelerator-dual-edgetpu/) you just have to be very sure the slot you're putting it in is actually delivering two PCIe connections.

    Also for bonus fun, most WiFi/BT cards use the PCIe interface for the WiFi and USB for the Bluetooth.

  • MKBHD is getting cancelled over $12/month wallpaper app, ad overload, and excessive permissions
  • While the price is undoubtedly an issue, I'm concerned this wasn't higher up in the article

    Brownlee says the money from the app is split 50/50 with artists

    HALF? Like I get that people are going to sign up to get exposure, but that is a hefty premium for doing very. very little work.

  • HaLow Wi-Fi has now been tested at 9.9 miles — new Wi-Fi world record is a near 5X increase over previous best
  • It sounds like you're thinking of LoRa, another 900MHz radio protocol.

    LoRa has similar bandwidth to Zigbee (125kbps), and as you say is designed for low-power devices running on battery. I have PIR motion sensors at home which have used only around a third of their battery after 2 years.

    Security cameras seems to be a large target market for HaLow though, where you need a couple of megabits at a few hundred metres.

  • Beam this to 10 other people or else you will have a day
  • My last laptop (owned from 2013-2020) had an NFC reader under the touchpad.

    I managed - exactly once - to get my phone to send a file to it using Beam. Did everything exactly as expected; initiated the transfer by NFC and sent the file over Bluetooth.

    I could never repeat the experiment. Once, and only once.
