Shade, cooler Air in summer, better protection against rain… 🤷‍♂️ Trees are 😎

It wasn’t allowed in the US? Wow. Didn’t know that. In EU it’s available since about ten years. Current systems have high definition projectors with >1 million pixels which can display nearly everything on the street before you.

Hmm. Would be a workaround, but not really what I have and like with 1P.

I currently have collected about 650 items in my 1P vault. Actually that are two vaults, as I share one with my wife.

And notes itself aren’t structured, they are just free text. I like to have structured items with specified fields where I can enter my info.

Also I have several login Items where I don’t just have a user, password, OTP, domain, note. What about if it is a service where the same account is used on different websites? I can save only one domain per password?

The iOS features are so basic, I can’t imagine switching to them. Although 1P keeps to suck more, as 1P8 is only available via subscription and the 1P7 browser plugin isn’t working properly anymore. :/

Not a good situation currently.

My CCR time is some years ago. I probably missed something. :)

Is this a JJ-CCR on the picture? The best thing about these are the stands. Had an APD CCR some time ago. Good CCR, but the missing ability to just let it stand by itself was shit.

It’s actually not necessary the concentration power but the available time when being adult… 🤔

Reading 2 books wouldn’t be a huge problem today (if they are good and less then 1000 pages). But unfortunately the two toddlers here say no to me sitting a few hours on the couch and reading some book.

One big reason for my replacement last year was th camera. The X camera was nice back then… but now? No. Too much capabilities missing.

And of course 5G is quite ok. I like the dynamic island, 120 Hz screen, and some other features.

My old X ist still lying on the desk and works. But I retired it after 5 solid years of work.

Someone should create himself a reminder in 7 years to check if Google good this promise and still provides major OS updates for this Pixel.

Apple delivered 5 major iOS updates to the iPhone X + the whole iOS 16 lifecycle with probably some additional security updates in the next 1-2 years. Let’s see how many updates the new iPhone 15 (Pro) models will get. I expect not less.

Promise is promise.

When you compare the size. When you compare the population… it depends.

While having a huge porn industry.

You could just put it in mWh. BAM, bigger number.

3000 mAh * 3.7V = 11.100 mWh Much bigger. Much better.

I hate mAh… it’s absolutely no information how much energy is inside without taking the voltage into account. If you use directly (m)Wh, you directly have the amount of energy the battery can contain.

Had just 4 X-Buttons… could be worse. 🥸

Damnit, I forgot one cable.

Just speaking for current divers (as I’m too young to have experience with the old divers):

Yes, there are crazy ones. But diving itself is quite safe. As long as you follow the rules. Even diving deep hast safety layers. As long as you follow the rules (!!!).

The most important rules: plan your dive, equip yourself according the plan and the most important rule: follow your plan and don’t change it mid-dive.

That’s why I switched sides. From programming myself to developing functions and writing requirements which someone else can implement into code. :)

I could do some programming (did embedded C), but surely I wasn’t the very best in it. So now I’m the guy who defines what a small (but essential) part of SW has to do which will run in hopefully a few million cars in a couple of years. :) Much more fun (and money).

Luckily the Discovery came from the past and saved everyone with the funghi-drive. :)

Discovery had some nice ideas but… well. Alone the constant drama and crying Michael Burnham made the series quite unattractive.

Also the story behind the great Dilithium Explosion. Well. A sad, and alone child. Well. They could have thought about something better.

There were better ST series.

His first kid was called „My“?

Actually, it’s not just another plug. The fact that the same Pins are used for AC and DC charging adds a little bit more complexity to the car. Either you need additional switches in the car to separate the Onboard AC-Charger from the charging port, or the AC-Charger must be designed to withstand an DC input on its AC-Input contacts. That probably won’t be the biggest problem when the DC-voltage is just around 400V, as the AC-voltage is not that far away.

But if you switch to 800V Batteries (which most of the industry is doing), that probably could get more challenging, as the AC-charging-voltage won’t change.

We‘ll see what the car industries solution will be.

What is the currently maximum available performance of NACS?

CCS is designed up to 1000V and 500A. Charging stations offer typically up to 350 kW.

What do the available NACS charging stations offer? As I remember Tesla is only using 400V batteries, so with 500A they only get up to 200kW.

So the switch to NACS sounds like a performance downgrade. But yes: probably a usability upgrade but at the cost of longer charging times.

Is Tesla planning to switch to 800V too? So they can deliver more performance?
