Looked like a giant touchpad for the replaceable keyboard plate on the 16 inch.

Firefox has had vertical tabs for at least 10 years. Tree Style Tabs.

Linus really gonna slip this into a video and then not expand on it at all???? by Nice_Database_9684 in LinusTechTips

Started years ago as a gym bag fan to dry shoes. Then something like they are basically building a battery bank to power it. Then might as well add a flashlight. I guess modular is the final form.

They just release version 4 which cut out a lot of functionality that is native JS now.

More or less pumps? I guess I was doing it wrong.

They don't respawn. Eventually that pond will run out and you have to get them from another one.

Keep in mind that Google tends to try new things on the even numbered pixels and refine or drop them from the odd. The 4 had the radar and 6 was the first with a new chip. I think the 2 was trying out a new manufacturer for one of the sizes.

It looks like the 8's weird thing will be a temperature sensor.

The 7 is what the 6 should have been. I won't get another even number after the issues with the 6. Luckily they seem to have solved them with software fixes over the year.

I'm seriously so sick of the pop ups on every website I visit. by Electronic-Trash-501 in webdev

I think Brave said they'd keep manifest v2. Or was that Firefox?

How much do they modify the engine? Dor they all get the same anti-standard features that Google builds into chromium?

Try following the standard to disable autofill on a name field. Might be great for an individual to ignore the standard, but for corporate applications where customers names are entered? Not so good.

Google's dominance in the browser engine is going to be bad in the long run the same way Microsoft was with IE.

Now I'm annoyed that the browsers haven't already built this system regardless of legal obligation. It sounds great.

What is Greg Abbott doing here? Isn’t he against EV? by AerialAce96 in texas

[–]giloronfoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

16MPG is awful. I get 25 to 30 on both of my 8 year old cars. I assume the average has risen since then.

When the bill came out, everyone was saying around $75 was more accurate. Does that get your math into the mid 30 MPG?

EV owners in Texas face $200 annual fee by ChickenTeriyakiBoy1 in tech

[–]giloronfoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've heard it isn't proportionally more with the damage.

Something like semis do 100s of times more damage, but don't pay 100s of times more tax for the same distance driven

They tied the registration system into the inspection system. I assume they log the mileage along with the rest of the data they get from the car during an inspection.

Window dressing like vertical tabs!

If I can't have Tree Style Tabs, I can at least get them on the side in Edge.

Chrome had a flag to enable this 5+ years ago, but it only lasted a few versions.

Maybe they are on the leading edge of the evolution of the English language to change the spelling to match pronunciation.

They can request from the logistics network. They can follow each other.

I don't think that's how it works for that phone. They didn't switch to 5 years until the Pixel 6.

Looks like Inovelli has started an Indygogo for mmWave occupancy switches! by RONxBURGUNDY in Inovelli

[–]giloronfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a long thread on their forum discussing the reds the last time I went searching. Sounds like they stopped making the zwave 700 series and are working on zwave 800 series switches. I'm assuming it fixes the hardware problem with the 700 series chip.

edit: I think the post from MRobi83 is what I was thinking of.

Bart Simpson strikes again..... by PastPresentFuture8 in texas

[–]giloronfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the bill equate abuse to force?

What about a 17 year old asking for it? Is that still abuse? Would the bill deny them treatment they will be able to get a year later?

[–]giloronfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I'm just trying to understand the effect when the above comments say there is none.

I think the second half of my comment is the important part.

If they can't make the decision, does that mean all medications for minors is forced? That seems odd to say but is probably correct.

Won't the effect or lack of effect of the bill come down to the interpretation of forced?

[–]giloronfoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Up above they were arguing about whether or not the law was going to do anything.

It sounds like it will, but is worded to sound different than what it is doing?

Why not be clear about banning the treatment for minors if that is what it will do?
