@Lrawsignal @SnazzyLabs I have an Apple Watch and I love it for many different reasons: I use it for years and years, helps me to look at my phone less, tracks some weights at the gym and my steps and the best of all is it wakes me with vibrations and not with a sound. Besides that, nothing else

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@Lrawsignal @SnazzyLabs I also don’t get it. It’s consumerism and useless e-waste.

@MarvelKapil @SnazzyLabs @ZacksJerryRig I have a leather wallet, custom and hand made locally for about 4-5 years. It’s impeccable, 0 wear marks and it’s daily in my pocket.

@SnazzyLabs Works fine for me on 26.5, do a restart

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@DanielWyld @Radios4Freedom @Mileage_impo It looks amazing!

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@eevblog @blind_via I’m looking forward to it

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@B_Barlow96 @thechosenberg But then you realise that your initial comment is stupid, right?

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@B_Barlow96 @thechosenberg If you need AC at 13°C (or 55F) you need to go to a doctor.

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@ThePeterMick Already bought 2 of them since your post, crazy 😂

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@eevblog @DanielBogdanoff @klarusboy Why do you have such a strong opinion on beards? As you like the shaved look, that’s how some like a beard. It’s personal preference as much as a T-shirt and a type of food.

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@CiroNappi6 @Mileage_impo Do you have details about it? Are they known for reliability?

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@ThePeterMick I bought 2 in the same day 😂

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@Bloodpack_1999 @saki_statements Think before you write. You drive from 80% to 20%, that’s 60% out of a full cycle. You charge the car and you have again 80% and drive down to 40%. Now you have a full battery cycle. 1000 charge cycles doesn’t mean 1000 plug-ins.

@willstoneberg @ThePeterMick Looks so good! Is it the A158 or the A159?

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@i2cjak A post regarding rework would be amazing

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@new_nikita_ @codfish246 @compux72 @i2cjak But you just said it. That’s a non-compliant charger. Any connector and manufacturer on earth can reverse the positive and negative line, but that’s not the point. A correct, by the standard charger that does any power imaginable cannot be wrong.

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@bijavix @i2cjak Only one source will be selected. Double the speed is not really possible, since that means double the power. I believe, don’t quote me on that, that the source that can deliver the highest amount of power allowed by the laptop will be the one to charge.

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@TomGreyyyyy @ChadNotChud Explain this technically. How does a “wrong” charger damage a device?

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@Principal_Jon That’s proper education. The best engineers I’ve met have disassembled stuff as kids and they understand the world better than most. The people saying it’s unsafe have never used a screwdriver and don’t have the curiosity to do such things.

[Mihai @lowrdson]

@Y3232fly @Principal_Jon @dkrusmc0321 That’s completely wrong. Most capacitors lose charge quite easily, especially since they are connected in circuit, due to leakage currents. Also, proper designs have bleeding resistors but I wouldn’t rely on it.
