    Apple watch - specifically oxygen sensor

    The O2 sensor does not only take automatic readings while sleeping. It is effectively sampling at random, even when sleeping. If you are a restless sleeper, you can wind up with sampling rates similar to what you get during the day. If you only wear your watch at night, of course it is going to...

    Net Neutrality expected to be reinstated after officials vote on 4/25/2024

    Net Neutrality didn't solve any problems other than some limited arguing over skype and BitTorrent that was going to implode anyway because of competition. The end of Net Neutrality didn't bring about anything anyone seems to have noticed. Going through a dozen hand wringing articles from...

    Bambu Labs Printers

    From community testing during the early kickstarter deliveries anything past 128gig for the SD card was a no go, and 128gig was a crap shoot depending on the card. I just use 64 gig cards without issue.

    Nvidia RTX 4090 power connectors melting?

    So I think the 4080 super cards are introducing the next attempted solution to this issue, which is recessed power connectors with notches taken out of the heatsinks (and also backplates depending on the card/vendor). All the gigabye 4080 supers do this in one way or another. IT eliminates the...

    Switch OS from one SSD to another

    You should be able to do it if you have a piece of blank media. I've used macrium and easeus to do it, but I was always moving from an installed NVME to a bigger (or faster), new, blank NVME.

    Apple 'Scary Fast' Mac event October 30th

    You aren't going to get the exact same dimensions with the macbook because most aren't going with the same screen aspect ratio as apple. the 15" XPS lineup differs from the 14" macbook by 0.1", 0.2" and 1.2" and that sounds pretty comparable to me given you can find those kinds of discrepancies...

    New Unity pricing

    This does not surprise me. What does surprise me is that the previous change to the TOS didn't drive more people away. Specifically to unreal engine. The terms aren't awful, but probably more importantly long term, they eat their own dog food AND they have revenue streams other than just the...

    Nvidia making 1,000% profit on H100 accelerators

    You are thinking like stock price is really a matter of business fundamentals. These days it's mostly about predicting where the money will flock to and flee from, and that seldom has much to do with solid business fundamentals. Infinite price run up requires infinite suckers, finite suckers...

    Bambu Labs Printers

    Currently it's pretty feature complete if annoying to switch into and out of. But you can print and monitor from bambu studio on a lan. Yeah, it was a pretty bad failure. If I were them, I'd figure out how to just use the cloud to make lan mode transparent and to expose data for the handy app.

    Prime Day 2023 Deals?

    I think it really depends on what you are looking at. Unlike the last couple years where it was basically all trash items, there is some good stuff at good prices this year. The claimed discount is usually BS, but some of it is still a good discount even when you ignore the puffery.

    Bambu Labs Printers

    They released the lan only mode capable firmware for the p1p in march IIRC. P1P version01.02.01.00 firmware.

    How long do motherboards generally last?

    I've had stuff living in machine rooms go 18 years. Heck one went almost seven years without a reboot.

    Apple Announces Updated Mac Pro With M2 Ultra

    It's really likely that the primary motivator is to be done with intel. Which is enough reason given it is apple. The problem with that take is that it doesn't look like it is a professional device either. And even if the hardware is good, how broad can the audience be that will roll their...

    Overhauled NVIDIA RTX 50 "Blackwell" GPUs reportedly up to 2.6x faster vs RTX 40 cards courtesy of revised Streaming Multiprocessors and 3 GHz+ clock

    DLSS4 Uses AI to take the current frame, predict a better game, and replace the frame with the equivalent frame of that better game.

    Are souls type games your cup of tea?

    I inevitably bail out at some point as the juice isn't worth the squeeze.
