For most hobby projects I just try to stay within the jlcpcb smt assembly parts library these days. For some reason it has actually gotten harder to get parts locally over the years as a consumer.
That has actually lowered the bar for small prototypes/projects enough that I’m using it for some company projects (PCB design isn’t something we normally do but it can be very useful at times).
Also you need to pay (18k/year iirc) in addition to that as well. Next to the fact that matter itself is quite convoluted from an implementation standpoint.
It’s really not made with things like startups or niche products in mind. It’s really a standard by and for the big companies
My cat only wants belly rubs. Anything else isn’t good enough.
Except that these pagers were distributed to more than just hezbollah. AUB (American university of Beirut) medical workers had them too, for example.
Switzerland has always been the go to holiday destination for my grandparents, parents and now me. The difference in pictures (and memories) between the generations is terrifying
I just carry my laptop with me while walking around during meetings.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone wearing cycling specific clothes for normal commuter trips. Other than maybe putting on a rain coat/pants over their normal clothing.
There’s a couple SD-WAN solutions out there that you can do this with. Essentially route all your traffic through one or more VPSes while still keeping things like port forwards and STUN working properly.
I’ve had to use it to enable proper video feeds to and from people that had Spectrum as their ISP.
HEVC actually requires a $1 license you can get from the ms store. It’s a royalty thing. OEMs often ship PCs with that license already enabled.
There are more applications than just windows Media Player that won’t play hevc files/streams without that license installed.
VLC doesn’t really seem to care about those things though and it’s better than the default anyways.
A lot of sensors/gauges in industrial applications are retrofitted with lorawan or similar remote readout capabilities right now. Battery life for these devices is already a big design consideration, especially since not all locations are easily accessible.
With a power source like this you would essentially charge a capacitor, use the stored charge to do a sensor read and short data burst, and then wait for the next charge.
It does exist, its called 801.11ah or wifi HaLow
That standard is mainly designed for things like IOT and wireless security cameras, but nothing stops you from getting an HaLow access point and network adapter.
People have done it on M1’s at least. You’ll need a well equipped rework station to do it though, especially since the NAND is essentially glued to the motherboard in addition to solder.
The workaround Germans seem to have discovered is to have roadworks that last indefinitely.
Nog defending this practice at all, but a fun little fact is that if you get a Mac instance on AWS (and other cloud providers) It’s literally a normal mac mini in a rack enclosure.
They did have some programs to try and push more apps, but dropped the ball far too quickly for it to gain traction.
Microsoft essentially shipped free phones out to everyone that wanted to make or port a windows phone app. Heck, I got one just to port over the schedule app I made for my small high school at the time and had maybe 300 installs.
The dev environment was actually a lot nicer to work with than the android one at the time as well.
Yes we do,
However they don’t hold much power over the day to day workings of the country.
The current monarch is essentially an ambassador that travels around the world for state visits and diplomatic talks. Similar to what a president and foreign minister would do.
I doubt support for the royals would be so high if not for all the national and international PR work that they do.
Doesn’t steam allow you to pick a specific update for your game?
I’ve had instant feedback on my headset for years now and it actually sounds weird not to hear my own voice back.
