That’s a common misconception. It’s the Amps that cause fires, not the voltage.
The 5090 uses 600W, at 12V that’s 50A, but at 120V that’d only be 5A and at 240V only 2.5A.
50A melts cables and burns your PC down, 2.5A won’t. The only risk of higher voltages is that they can jump across small air gaps much easier.
when you do need power you need a special circuit.
We also have a standard socket and a high power socket.
Expect our normal outlets provide 230V 16A 3.5kW (3kW sustained) and the typical high power outlets outlets provide 400V 30A 11kW or 400V 60A 21kW.
Which is why typical electric stoves here use 11kW and typical instant water heaters use 21kW.
Though probably the most noticeable advantage is in electric car charging.
The affordable Sony Xperia 10 series is really good. My new Xperia runs circles around my OG Pixel, costs basically nothing, is waterproof, has upgradable storage and a headphone jack, and besides Apple, Google and Intel, Sony is the only manufacturer that actually has working bluetooth.
That may be true, but at least the genes for night owls are present in more people than the genes for early birds.
So it should be expected that, regardless of phone usage, over half of the population will go to bed and wake up ~2-3h later than expected.
If your timezone is closely aligned with the sun, that’d be 22:00-06:00 for early birds and 01:00-09:00 for night owls. But if your timezone isn’t, both of these times would shift around.
For me personally, no matter when I go to bed, whether it’s 22:00 or 03:00, I always wake up precisely 09:30 without any alarm clock. But this also means if I have to wake up earlier, e.g. at 8am, I’ll be very tired and not well rested.
That’s definitely wrong. You should follow danielle’s mastodon, she’s working on elementary all the time.
It’s not just office, SH and many other parts of the German government have been slowly replacing the entire O365 suite with OpenDesk, which is an open source product based on Matrix, Jitsi, LibreOffice, and a few other tools.
The goal is to have a fully integrated solution for calender, chat, calls, documents, cloud storage, etc.
My employer is developing parts of that solution and we recently switched our internal communication over to it, and tbh, it’s working really well.
Now is the perfect point in time to do it, with the GDPR ruling regarding O365 and Microsoft fumbling the migration between old teams and new teams.
In some languages, it’s actually common to say US-American to clearly specify what is meant.
The EU demands that alternative app stores or individual users can do exactly that.
Apple disagrees.
That’s precisely why this is back in court.
It being totally without rules or terms is exactly what the EU demanded.
Why would they need to comply with Apple’s ToS to publish apps outside of the app store?
If they are sold as “replica swords”, and the seller assumes this means “display piece” and the buyer assumes this means “larp-usable sword”, the sale is null as no meeting of minds has happened.
Even if it is damaged or broken, you’d be able to return it for the full price, because you did not get what you were promised (at least in countries with legal warranty)
Then separate them into “replica sword” and “basically just a painting to hang in your living room” sections and lock the part that’s useless in a display case.
You pay for something once you know what you’re getting. If you don’t know what you’re getting, it can hardly be argued there was ever a meeting of minds. See the “The Peerless” case.
Even half an hour next to the PA without special ear plugs is enough to permanently harm your hearing.
What you’re describing used to be right under X11, but under Wayland the compositor handles all rendering itself. For Gnome that’s mutter, which is also maintained by the gnome project.
Seriously, stop being an asshole. Coil whine is a well-documented behaviour that creates a loud, high pitched noise.
As coil whine is at the very limit of what human hearing can accomplish, it doesn’t take much until you’re unable to hear it. So you’re likely too old or went to too many concerts to be able to hear it.
Good ears? the question is when, not where, and the answer is half a lifetime ago.
The recent technology connections video cited a lot of statistics on this topic, and at least household fires are primarily caused by overcurrent, not by arcing.
You probably know more than me — I only studied compsci with ee as minor — but from my personal experience, I’ve seen many cases where overcurrent caused damage, burns or fire, but I can’t remember a single case where arcing caused actual damage.
Even in cheap chinesium powerstrips, the primary cause of fires is overcurrent due to AWG 22 copper clad iron wire, not arcing. (Though the switches usually weld themselves together after a few dozen uses).
