It’s the same with other vendors though. I man those that allow you to swap internals without losing warranty. Bought my laptop with just a 16g stick (base price/included), then bought 2x24g for the price one additional 16g module would’ve cost. And now I got a 16g module left over, too.
Same with normal floppy disks. Their reliability was abysmal, as was their longevity.
I had blocked the user, might have been before writing my reply. I guess that caused it to fail to the top level, weird. Deleted the comment as it doesn’t make any sense there.

Might want to calculate out what the actual number is those “small” 3% represent. Or how the curve looks over time. how it changed from a mostly flat line to a very clearly and relatively steeply climbing curve.
CachyOS is basically vanilla Arch, from a resource point of view. They have their own repos, but they just mirror the arch repos. The arch wiki fully applies. For the very few special things, there is documentation (basically a few notes on gaming related performance options).
So why use it? Carter it’s trivial to install, and everything you need is preconfigured to just work with sane defaults. Installing it is like Mint or Ubuntu. But it uses optimized repos according to your available CPU instruction set, and optimized proton and wine (their own). Games just work (even more so than they already do generally), and are faster. Programs are faster (where it matters). But you don’t need to do anything for that, it’s just there by default.
They can’t sell this at a loss, or at least it would be incredibly risky. This is (intentionally) “just a PC”. It ships with SteamOS but you can of course install whatever you want, including windows. If it is (much) cheaper than a roughly equivalent normal PC, companies might just start buying them in bulk but obviously not generating the supporting sales needed.
I’ve stopped caring about physical sports and their broadcast literal decades ago. I only occasionally watch relatively niche sports during the Olympics (climbing for example), but that’s it.
What I do watch is eSports. More exciting than watching a bunch of people run over a field repeatedly, trying to get a ball into a things or whatever.
I assume you mean unsolicited phone calls with this? I haven’t gotten any of those in about a decade, if not more. And those were isolated cases as well. We have laws against that sort of thing. It’s not been a problem for a very very long time (early 2000s or so).
The 3$ isn’t a component price but also retail already.
The actual hardware cost of these devices is actually minimal. Basically any wifi capable microcontroller, a camera and depending on implementation some storage (or a micro sd-card holder). So that price is only cheap in comparison to existing products.
For reference, said microcontroller with basic camera can be had for like 3$ or something.
Sorry but the theoretical price of cells isn’t relevant to the consumer. The price of products containing them is. This thing costs currently on the official site 900€ (with some sort of sale going on). The Elite 100v2 with comparable capacity, but using LiFePo4 (included in the same current sale) costs just 550€. To add insult to injury, it also outperforms the Na model in nearly every aspect except sub-freezing performance (where it at least still works, but nowhere near normal spec values either). This includes an abysmal solar charging efficiency for the Na of roughly 50% at normal temperature. Somehow.
Again, once the price reflects the cell cost, this could be a very attractive option. At the moment, unless you’re into camping in sun-zero climates, it’s just a very bad deal.
Edit: to be clear the Na model also doesn’t have a better life expectancy, not according to the spec. Both models are specified to “over 4000 cycles”, not there is no percentage threshold specified for the Na model. The LiFePo4 model includes “to 80% capacity” in that definition. If this is specified somewhere for the Na model, I can’t find it.
The thing currently costs at least 50% more than the closest equivalent LiFePo4 from the same brand. The only real advantage seems to be it’s ability to handle sub freezing temperatures, but usability still drops dramatically (both capacity and available power delivery). Everything else is straight up worse in this one in direct comparison.
It’s only the first product, so it’ll most certainly get better. Also as numbers of products sold rise, costs fall. Once these are cheaper, that are a real choice.
Didn’t notice anything like this, not even slightly.
The critical thing with these is response time. If it’s even slightly too high (I think 20-30ms is easily too high), some/many people get very motion sick. Getting that time down as low as needed is also not trivial.
With it only being 60 Hz on the controller itself, that’s basically impossible to hit. That’s 16.6 ms already. Then the processing, sending to the PC, and the PC reacting has a budget of just a few ms? Yea, not happening.
I’m assuming he’s really not sensitive to this. As it’s open source now the people who are sensitive can improve it. That’s the beauty of open source after all.
So then delete the row. OP, you control the spreadsheet, right?
I can’t speak for others, but I personally appreciate the info anyway. Because I wouldn’t trust a VPN company that’s been around for like 3 months. And it allows you to judge a track record with context.
It hasn’t even been that long, but there was a couple that started building their own homestead in Spain or Portugal (I think) on YouTube. They had laid out the foundation and layout, gotten a mini excavator. They had already built it renovated a sorry of workspace.
I can’t for the life of me find it anymore. Searched on YouTube obviously, tried finding it in other ways. Tried more generic search terms (maybe it wasn’t in Spain/Portugal after all), It doesn’t seem to exist.
Revanced actually is the official YouTube client, just modified on the users device before installation.
A Spotify jam you can start at any time, anywhere. Then whatever you’re playing is that “Jam”. You can send other people (who also have Spotify) a link/qr and they can hear it, and play songs too. It’s literally 1 click to do this with a group.
I also don’t use it, so I don’t know how it exactly works once you’re in it. Like how don’t suggestions work or if anyone in it can just add to the queue, but that’s the assumption on my part.
Don’t buy anything by crucial, as you’ll have trouble getting a 2nd stick in the future. They are shutting down their end user business.
