Thanks, I'll have a look. It's an universal mains power supply with no voltage switch.
How were you measuring the current in the power cable? Is this with a Kill-o-watt device or perhaps with a clamp meter and a line splitter?
For the current both with a line-splitter+clamp and checked with an in-line meter. For the power factor, since I don't have any actual instrument to measure It, and I just needed a ball-park figure to discern actual consumption from a capacitor, I used this diy method: https://www.giangrandi.org/electronics/cosphi/cosphi.shtml , which measured 0.04 ( with great approximation ).
As for why there is a capacitor across the mains input [...]
I have the basic on how a switching power supply work, but I was asking because it seemed weird to me that commercial appliances didn't take any stand-by meaures to avoid "keeping the wires warm"... is this the norm?
The main issue is more about how many FOSS devs are available to implement what you just said unfortunately...
Yuzu [...] allows for the play of encrypted Nintendo Switch games on devices other than a Nintendo Switch.
That's pretty much the whole statement, claiming this to be a crime is just infuriating.
It's like claiming that you can't use the ink inside a printer cartridge you bought, unless you use it with the specific branded printer.
Recently Teams is blocking Firefox even on Windows, but changing user agent was enough in my case...
Tv and movies don't look choppy because the shutter speed of the camera smooth out the movement with motion blur. Motion blur in games is instead just simulated and not as effective.
Also as someone else have said a game is interactive and input latency can be as high as 3 frames, which at 30fps would be 1/10s and can be perceived....
I'll give a different perspective on what you said: dx12 basically moved half of the complexity that would normally be managed by a driver, to the game / engine dev, which already have too much stuff to do: making the game. The idea is that "the game dev knows best how to optimize for its specific usage" but in reality the game dev have no time to deal with hardware complexity and this is the result.
On desktop, I'm really wondering why people use it. I mean it's not pre-installed for windows, what makes people choose Chrome in 2023?
A quanto pare disattivando la cronologia, dopo varie richieste di riattivarla, youtube sostituisce l'intera homepage con l'avviso dell'immagine ("La tua cronologia delle visualizzazioni e' disattivata"). In pratica devi pagarla con i tuoi dati? Ho pensato fosse interessante....
This is so sad, I don't understand how any moderator would still feel ok to stay on reddit... Thank you for sharing
If communities belonged to "lemmy" you would have Reddit. If anything would be forcefully federated it would be a mess. IMHO it's the right balance. I get your concerns about being confusing but given the state of development of the platform most of it will be solved by a better UI and better instance data synchronization policies, etc...
Thanks for the interesting write-up!
