Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books

Jump

  • Aah, I didn't know, but I also didn't say it was open source... it's store and format agnostic, which Kobo definitely is not.

  • Check out boox for a properly open(-ish) platform, it's android based.

  • Honda has made both the "e" in 2020 and "e:Ny1" in 2023, both seem like decent BEVs in their price segment.

  • Its a flashlight, not exactly a field in raging development.

    Honestly I'm thinking it's because it's cheaper to have programmers doing simple FW programming for things than it is to have engineers design the required circuits. There are so many things with microprocessors in today that just does not actually need it but it was the lazy option. It opens stupid avoidable avenues of vulnerabilities.

  • Why the hell make it with a microprocessor when something simple like brightness levels and simple blinking patterns can be made with much simpler digital electronics without the need for any programming whatsoever leaving the whole hacking-issue out of the equation.

    • Prusa Mk4 or Mk4s first layer issues

    Jump

  • No, I believe you hold Prusa to a higher standard than they actually deliver. It's true their roots are in open source, but these days they are only partially open source and their control board is not open source at all.

    • Prusa Mk4 or Mk4s first layer issues

    Jump

  • Isn't their entire FW closed and using proprietary boards? AFAIK replacement parts are also only available as STLs? That's somewhat halfhearted open source IMO.

    • Prusa Mk4 or Mk4s first layer issues

    Jump

  • Can't you just change this? Or are Prusa so locked down that they don't allow control of the printer?

    • Handful of users claim new Nvidia GPUs are melting power cables again

    Jump

  • Haha yeah I mistyped the years, it was supposed to be +10 and not +20...nevertheless these cards have been pulling at least 3-400W for the past 15 years.

    • Handful of users claim new Nvidia GPUs are melting power cables again

    Jump

  • My +10 year old GTX780 would pull 300W at full tilt, and it has only a ridiculous fraction of the compute power. The radeon 6990 would pull +400W... high end GPUs have been fairly power hungry for literally more than a decade.

  • Dude, either taking something without paying is theft, or it isn't...you're making an arbitrary distinction for the sake of your own moral or something IDK.

  • If you're not stealing digital media from corporations when you download without paying, you're not stealing from indie creators when you're doing the same. Have some consistency in your justification at least.

  • No, tesla never had lidar in any of their cars, they had the same regular radar all other cars use, but yes it has since been disabled (or not installed on newer models) in favour of a camera-only solution.
