Before launching products*

walled gardens are only a little less awful when still supported

it does feel ambiguous though as even what you outlined misses a 4th case. if null means delete, how do I update it to set the field to null?

I assume they meant check the wattage of the car charger output. some powerbanks have displays now and can show you it's input or output.

.. All phones also have displays and should show you the same thing but don't.

that's interesting because frankly I feel the opposite.vertical screen real estate is at a premium, it's already common to have a horizontal taskbar and/or menubar eating into the desktop space, and then any browser UI like address bars eat into it more. Meanwhile most websites I visit are filled with whitespace on either side and always require scrolling down, often infinitely scrolling down, so the more vertical space the more you can fit on screen without scrolling.

To put it another way: I rarely full screen my browser because making it wider doesn't help, but I usually have it filling the maximum vertical space. Granted I'm on an ultra wide making this problem worse, but even at work on a 16:9 I feel the same way

pc has already had this with Xbox game bar and the perf impact isnt really noticable. if I recall correctly modern gpus have some dedicated chips for video rendering that are otherwise idle. I would assume there is some hit to vram that could hurt if you're limited on it, but for most people it should be fine.

it's not about using all 100 IP addresses for every atom

it's about having large enough ranges to allocate them in ways that make sense instead of arbitrarily allocating them by availability

You could just show it as a percentage of max its trying to draw be default and show actual watts under a developer toggle

The commerce should be regulated imo- there's a lot of bad things people will do for profit when not properly regulated.

That doesn't prevent you from growing your own or consuming your buds bud, that's just personal use and does not need to abide by the same regulations

it's typically up to the distribution to configure things like that, and many Linux distributions do come in both server and desktop or workstation variants like Ubuntu desktop vs Ubuntu server, or RHEL server vs RHEL Workstation

I can't say how well they tune these things as I haven't ran them personally, but they do exist.

You should look into IPMI console access, that's usually the real 'only way out of this'

SSH has a lot of complexity but it's still the happy path with a lot of dependencies that can get in your way- is it waiting to do a reverse dns lookup on your IP? Trying to read files like your auth key from a saturated or failing disk? syncing logs?

With that said i am surprised people are having responsiveness issues under full load, are you sure you weren't running out of memory and relying heavily on swapping?

I think starlink is more than that as even more things rely on a (good) Internet connection ingeneral than rely on satellites, and traditional connectivity methods leave many people underserved even in countries like America let alone the world.

It definitely has its problems, if nothing else that it's privately owned and anyone who wanted to compete would then massively amplify those problems.

as I understand it the difference comes down to this: The EU requires ingredients to be proven safe to be allowed The US requires ingredients to be proven unsafe to not be allowed.

The end result is still what you expect, but even if something was actually safe it could be in our food but not yet allowed in their food, so it's hard to get a good comparison.
