ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•ATT’s botched network update caused yesterday’s major wireless outageEnglish1·1 year agoI was under the impression that a company (AT&T) owns the tower, and they can lease out connections from that tower to other providers. They are also required by law to route 911 calls for free, but I can see a scenario if they botched the routing where 911 would not be accessible from that tower.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•ATT’s botched network update caused yesterday’s major wireless outageEnglish2·1 year agoDoesn’t That tower still need to route the call to 911? And if that routing is broken the call wouldn’t go through…I think?
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Why Charging Your Gadgets Over 80% Is Such a Bad Idea | iFixit NewsEnglish6·1 year agoNot sure how accurate this would be as charging is not 100% efficient. Also the amount of power the phone uses while charging would have to be taken into account as well.

ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Disney+ has started cracking down on password sharing in the USEnglish6·1 year agoAs much as I hate it, no, it won’t make a difference. Netflix did this and it gave them a record number of subscribers. Seems like for every 1 that cancels 2 more subscribe.

ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Apple Has Sold Approximately 200,000 Vision Pro HeadsetsEnglish1·1 year agoIncorrect. Apple does not need to approve or sign any code for it to run on any Mac.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Vision Pro Teardown—Why Those Fake Eyes Look So WeirdEnglish4·1 year agoHoly shit dude. You still don’t understand? There is no lighting connector involved.
The cable coming out of the battery pack and goes to the wall is standard usb-c. Rather than plugging this usb-c connector into the included wall adapter, you could plug it into a battery that supports usb-c power delivery.
I honestly don’t know how I can make it any clearer for you.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Vision Pro Teardown—Why Those Fake Eyes Look So WeirdEnglish3·1 year agoWhy are you continuing to lie? I never said you can connect directly to it. The parent comment said
“You can use any USB battery with it, just plug it into the battery pack.”
Which is absolutely true. You claimed it was false. I corrected you. I’ve made no other claims about wanting a Vision Pro, loving Apple, or anything else that you are insinuating. Just take the L dude.
I could not find any resources that charging a the Vision Pro battery from an external battery is a safety hazard. It’s using USB spec for power delivery, as long as it receives the correct voltage and current it wouldn’t care what is on the other end.
Sure, some cheap battery banks are not designed to be charged and discharged at the same time, but this is clearly not the case here.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Vision Pro Teardown—Why Those Fake Eyes Look So WeirdEnglish31·1 year agoI would never buy a Vision Pro, doesn’t mean I’m not going to correct people when they are wrong about tech.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Vision Pro Teardown—Why Those Fake Eyes Look So WeirdEnglish44·1 year agoI’m just correcting the guy who said this was not possible and that Vision Pro did not use usb-c. Didn’t realize people don’t like facts around here.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Vision Pro Teardown—Why Those Fake Eyes Look So WeirdEnglish4·1 year agoYou read something that was true, falsely claimed it was incorrect, a different person corrected you, and rather than checking to see if you were right, which would be a simple google search, you doubled down that something is not possible. And now that you realize you’re wrong you move the goalposts and say it’s useless either way. It’s exhausting dealing with people like you.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Vision Pro Teardown—Why Those Fake Eyes Look So WeirdEnglish55·1 year agoYou’re a little slow. I’ll spell this out for you. Headset to battery with built in connector. Included battery to any battery bank of your choice with any usb-c cable.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Vision Pro Teardown—Why Those Fake Eyes Look So WeirdEnglish81·1 year agoYes you can. The battery plugs into the wall with USB-C.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Commercials Are Streaming’s New Norm, and Creators Aren’t Happy: “It’s Almost Worse Than Broadcast”English134·1 year agoHonestly, a preview for another show on the same service doesn’t bother me AS LONG AS it is skippable. I’ve never used paramount so I’m not sure if that’s the case.
If I’m being honest when I was a kid part of the fun of going to the movies was the previews before, finding out about upcoming movies and what not.
I do agree that you shouldn’t see the same preview every episode cause that’s super annoying. But I’d be totally fine with one per session or something. Again, as long as it’s skippable right from the start.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Apple Vision Pro review: magic, until it’s notEnglish1·1 year agoThe thing you have to factor in is they can’t make very many of them due to technical limitations. I agree $2k would be a good price but if they will sell as many as they could possibly make at $3.5k they aren’t going to sell for less. Gotta recoup all that R&D cost somehow.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see a better, more refined headset from Apple for under $2k in the next few years. I’m sure they know $3500 is out of reach for the vast majority of consumers.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Apple Vision Pro review: magic, until it’s notEnglish2·1 year agoTo me, no I would never pay $3500 for a headset. But I can also appreciate the insane amount of tech that’s included in it. Historically the 3rd or 4th gen of a new apple product is where they really hit their stride. And hopefully in this case come down in price.
As for the battery I personally don’t think that would be much of an issue since when I think about my main use case for it I’d be sitting on the couch and it would just be plugged into the wall. I couldn’t find the length of included usb-c cable online but I have a few 2 meter ones already that I would use.
On flights I can see it being frustrating for sure.
ji17br@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Apple Vision Pro review: magic, until it’s notEnglish52·1 year agoIf you genuinely think it’s worth less than $200 then I don’t know what to tell you.
Infinite?
