I guess you'll have to deep in the apple cult to be amazed by other phone chargers. Power Delivery have been around for over 10 years, follow standards and have enough power and it charges.
Beyond the Apple cult, could you charge your Lenovo, Dell, etc notebooks with a standard mobile phone charger? Last time I tried with a 2022 Lenovo via USB-C it didn't work.
A 3 amp USB charger is going to be somewhere in the range of 15 watts, right?
That's awfully powerful for a phone charger, is it not? I think my kids' Chromebook chargers have that kind of output.
In our household, we use all the USB-C stuff interchangeably. My wife has a Thinkpad X1 Carbon and another slightly older Thinkpad. Both seem to charge fine with whatever we throw at them.
But truth be told, my wife uses an extra Apple 65W charger we bought when on the go. They are just plain better built, and disconnect into 3 pieces making them way easier to pack up in a bag.
It definitely works. We don’t even have the Lenovo charger anymore. It broke.
To be clear, you aren’t going to be able to use a phone/tablet charger when you’ve got the lid open and are actively using the computer. But with the lid closed and the laptop asleep, it absolutely will trickle charge to 100% overnight.
Again, 7th gen X1 Carbon and another even older Thinkpad. No idea about the newer stuff.
My Lenovo Yoga slim from 2023 charges fine with my pixel 4a charger. Though it's barely enough power to break even while watching YouTube on Firefox. Though the Samsung charger from a 2023 Samsung A series phone can't charge it.
wth! That page tells us nothing useful. The hardware headline has a picture of it, a pinout diagram and nothing more.
What kind of hardware is it built with? What architecture is it? What's the wi-fi chip? Does it have good support? What libraries are you using? What distros are supported?
All I can see it that it's running busybox and a two year old kernel.
The textareas are close, but it's not the same as having the actual editor. I use UltiSnips a lot, which without the actual editor you can't use. It's the same with a lot of Tim Pope's plugins (abolish, surround, etc...).
So first off what this does is, it expands to the expression:
'-o /dev/null' '-o /dev/null '
Even if we remove the latter space by just using `{,}` instead of `{,\ }` curl still returns for me an error code 23 -- CURLE_WRITE_ERROR.
curl seems to interpret `'-o /wtf'` as a command to write to the file ` /wtf`, so this only makes sense if you have a directory called ` ` in the folder you're running from.
You can therefore do this correctly with:
-o/dev/null{,}
and that correctly writes the contents to /dev/null without issuing a curl write error.
Thanks, it sure looks less ugly with -o/dev/null{,}
I couldn't find any other way to get curl to stay silent and still output redirect times. Hence the crude hack.
(Obviously my bash and curl versions had no problem with the spaces or I wouldn't have posted it)
I also assumed that it was some kind of Python wrapper or implementation of Tesseract OCR when I saw that name.
One would think so when Tesseract being (one of?) the best preforming OCR-programs out there.
"The Yogscast's Yogventures was the first Kickstarter I ever saw that set off alarm bells in my head"
What? Was this also the first Kickstarter the article author ever saw?
Yes both the Vinculum and the Central Plexus should on that list. The Vinculum is specifically described as a processing device whereas the Central Plexus might be more of a switchboard. (Edit: all this is VOY not TNG ofc)
