This is because Discord former CEO and co-founder was replaced with a former Activision Blizzard executive to prepare for IPO last month.

Wi-Fi and 802.15.4/Bluetooth Classic/BLE use different modulation schemes so they are entirely different transceivers even though they almost operate entirely within the same ISM band. Bluetooth's frequency band is actually slightly larger than 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi for FCC/IC regions.

For single package/chip components that support both 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth have two dedicated radio transceivers that will operate in co-existence mode when both are enabled for transmit, however both may receive at the same time.

The whole reason for Bluetooth, and even more so for Bluetooth Low Energy, is a low-power personal area network (PAN). So turning it off I would expect it to show little to no power usage impact for say a mobile phone or tablet that mostly communicates over Wi-Fi or cellular network. Now days we have BLE beacons used for tracking items that lasts for years on a single coin cell battery.

Additionally Disney removed their native Disney Plus app from Microsoft Store and replaced it with an Edge web browser app which is limited to 720p (same limitation applies to all web browsers on Windows).

The previous Disney Plus app on Windows provided native 1080P video at the very least.

So not only did they make a huge jump in subscription pricing they also gave us PC customers the middle finger.

For desktop, probably not common.

For data centers and any programs that are timing critical on predictability to where CPU frequency changing on the fly causes havoc, I could see why.

Pretty funny considering that 25 years ago XMPP (aka Jabber) came out that is heavily XML verbose based protocol and it actually performed rather well as both an instant messenger and IRC bridge and alternative chat medium.

Both Starsiege Tribes and Tribes 2 have always supported UDP discovery of LAN servers (via sending/receiving packets over subnet broadcast address) then found game servers showed up in the server browser. The games also support manual direct connecting to an IP address or resolvable hostname.

AT&T has been stating that they offer fiber (up to 5 Gbps) in my neighborhood since around 2018 (surprise surprise! A year after Google announced they'll start rolling out here, but still no show) according to , but in fact they don't have anything but ADSL2 service (up to 65 Mbps, for $55 USD!) anywhere on this 5 mile stretch of road.

Wyze isn't any better. They keep increasing their Cam Plus prices. Among other issues.

My cameras will randomly not be recognized as having Cam Plus subscription (not the Lite tier) and so it won't continuously record most events to the cloud. I do have samsung pro endurance microSD cards in the cameras, so I won't miss anything, however the app does take a long time to connect to cameras in order to playback the recorded video.

Going on two years now unfortunately the cameras will have gaps in video recordings (in both cloud and microSD card) after ~5 seconds into an event occurs where you'll lose 5 to 7 seconds. Such as an Amazon delivery you'll see a person walk to the front door, suddenly they've already placed the package at the door, and they're walking away. Face not clearly shown because the camera hiccuped while they were close by.

And the Wyze App will pester you to upgrade to a higher level subscription tier (Cam Protect), new products in store, etc... gah..

I would replace the cameras with something else, but they were very inexpensive to buy in bulk. Pros and cons, it seems they all have it.

What are you talking about? The Trump administration made a deal with the Taliban: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.congress.gov%2Fevent...

The deal was for the U.S. Military to pull out by May 2021: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.axios.com%2F2020%2F02%2F...

Alright! Who allowed Mr. Rodney McKay to do another zero-point energy experiment?

Cause apparently blowing up 5/6th of solar system wasn't enough.

And it's obviously intentional as I've noticed this article's posted time was bumped up in order for it to be placed at the top of the home page.

Article current posted time "8:00 AM", however first comment shows as posted at "5:25 AM". And I saw it below AMC Zoom Room article earlier that shows its posted time "7:00 AM". Which means this "Oculus ad" had an earlier posted time before 7:00 AM.

I know from experience the SATA NCQ Samsung SSDs issue is not limited to EPYC but even on old hardware such as AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 250 Processor and motherboard with a Marvell 9215 SATA controller.

Which in my opinion rules out host hardware but more than likely a problem with the SATA driver and/or Samsung SSD controllers.

This is what happens when the patent system is changed to first to file instead of first to invent: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F...

They have it backwards. It's my own texts on iOS (as an iPhone user) that have a different background color depending on who I am texting with over which medium (SMS for green, iMessage for blue), not the other person's text. The other person I'm texting with always has the light gray background color.

For me it's always been the case since at least iOS 12 when I started owning an iPhone.

I don't know what you are on about considering that all textual IP addresses start off as strings until parsed.

In this rare case somebody was passing an octal dot notation formatted IP address or CIDR as a parameter but the program was parsing the IP address or CIDR as decimal dot notation as it wasn't checking for or supported leading zeros in order to use octal dot notation.
