The better idea is to build your own compatible key using a firmware you can audit yourself. I did exactly that myself: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fconorpp%2Fu2f...
I have to say, I agree. I think it's pretty much unacceptable to turn out crap code. Even when it's open source. If the drivers are bad, people should buy other devices until the drivers are good. I do.
My "back yard" is a bit over 100,000 square meters. So?
This is no joke. I made a clock once with a circuit like this and the quiescent current did exactly that. I removed the booster, and just ran the clock on two batteries and it runs a long time now.
All you say about condoms is true, but the best response I've seen to that is since we're preparing we can do better than a condom. If you had the choice, would you actually choose a (delicate) condom to hold your water? I wouldn't, which is why I've always thought that a small durable plastic bag folded very small makes much more sense than a condom.
Since you're packing this all ahead, you have plenty of time to think it through and make the best choice.
I use the MessagEase keyboard on a few devices, and I can't imagine a better input system for small screens. It is unconventional, and it takes a bit of learning. Small enough to fit on a dime? Probably not. But for a watch, absolutely.
In the mathematical models I've seen, ice in Antartica growing is in fact a sign of global warming. Thinking that warming is going to be uniform is hopelessly naive on a world with the complex ocean and atmospheric phenomena we have.
I've been a Linux user continuously through out that whole period, and I get what you're saying. For the last couple of years I've found Linux a lot less stable. Sometimes the culprit looks like the graphical environment/drivers, sometimes maybe not. But it's been really frustrating and I've not know where to begin hunting it down. Bug reports sure, but when your bug stays open for 18 months.....
That's because it's not a chip and pin. They gave me the same card and it's a chip and sign. Lame facade of security.
Yes. This.
This is true. I just visited the Netherlands and as an American I had this impression exactly. We want to think we're all so hot, "invented the Internet" and all. But the Dutch do technology way better than us. I was very envious of their chip and pin technology.
Forgot about x.org?
.org isn't a TLD?
This is right. I'm far sighted, and it is completely different than being near sighted. You can see mountains, you can drive. You can see everything not close in crystal clear fidelity.
For close up work, like reading or sewing or electronics you wear glasses. Most of those activities are fairly static, and glasses are generally no problem (though I find my glasses want to fall off while sewing). I don't have much experience with VR, but I suspect the experience could be completely different.
