We should have a consumer Coop for computer hardware, so that we can negotiate prices and availability.

How much more innovation can this tiny slice of 2.4GHZ spectrum support?

Registered for it. it's sponsored by intel, interestingly.

Can we run these computers in space using tiny nuclear reactors where water cooling won't be necessary?

Interesting, but A35 is grossly underperforming, and is an efficiency core.

Interesting! I guess they might also return back to FIVR when the CPU voltage regulators were integrated into the chip silicon. (Haswell / Broadwell)

Are there any super capacitors based batterys which emulate a LiIon which won't bloat but will still act as a battery for intermittent high drain situation?

Charge level control for such devices should be standard. All my always connected devices with LiPo batteries have led to eventual bloating and safety hazards.

Why do many resveratrol supplements contain Japanese knotweed? Which part of the plant secretes that?

GNSS-SDR is a decently usable software. We use it regularly in our lab with low-cost and medium cost SDRs like Pluto, USRP B series boards (modded with .5 ppm TCXOs). Configuring it for a 15 channel GPS + Galieo L1-band receiver, the CPU usage remains at 120% or so.

If you really want to experience rallying I would recommend driving one of the modern road going rally inspired cars like the Lancer EVO / WRX STI / GR Yaris. They handle like no other, and will push the casual driver to their limits much before the car reaches its limits. Also turbo lag is fun.

Unfortunately the company helped kill Aureal 3D tech and hence their 3d sound positioning competitor.

New comment by noipv4 in "The 5GHz “Problem” for Wi-Fi Networks: DFS (2018)"

noipv4 — Mon, 26 Dec 2022 07:33:08 +0000

Using 5GHz is a real pain here in Switzerland. Only 4 non DFS channels are available 36, 40, 44 and 48 (output power is also highly restricted in these 4 channels). Rest 14 channels are DFS. Channel planning is a nightmare; never know when a AP on DFS channel will hop back to a non DFS channel and start sharing bandwidth there, and will also lower its output power. Moreover adding to the confusion is that all Outdoor APs are restricted to using DFS channels only!!
