Looks cool, wishing them the best of luck. Would be awesome to have a properly functional open source CAD software to compete with the likes of Fusion.

scarilog@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Welcome to Campus. Here’s Your ChatGPT.English13·28 days agoI’m not supporting higher education becoming reliant on for-profit companies like this, but AI tutors and the like, if properly implemented, would be kinda awesome. For example, it’s usually not feasible to have real life staff on hand to answer student questions at all hours of the day. Especially at the more early years of university, where content is simpler, AI is more than capable of meeting needs like this.
I don’t fully agree with most of the people on this thread. I also hate AI slop being forced into what feels like all aspects of our life right now, but LLMs do have some genuine uses.
scarilog@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A Researcher Figured Out How to Reveal Any Phone Number Linked to a Google AccountEnglish2·28 days agoYes, but I was saying the Blackhat marketplaces wouldn’t really have much recourse if the person selling the exploit knew how to cover their tracks. i.e. they wouldn’t have anyone to sue or go after.
scarilog@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•A Researcher Figured Out How to Reveal Any Phone Number Linked to a Google AccountEnglish24·28 days agoI always wonder what’s stopping security researchers from selling these exploits to Blackhat marketplaces, getting the money, waiting a bit, then telling the original company, so they end up patching it.
Probably break some contractual agreements, but if you’re doing this as a career surely you’d know how to hide your identity properly.

The difference is the transmitter and receiver are both tuned LC circuits that operate at their resonant frequency, which is why this works over the impressive range shown in the video. It would have efficiencies around 80% mark based on what I could find. But yeah for RFI, this would definitely be worse than something like normal Qi charging, which operates in the 100s of KHz, while this operates in the MHz. But I think the manufacturers page says this is FCC certified? So might be not too bad.

scarilog@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•True Wireless Power is FINALLY here (building a TRULY wire-free desk setup)English15·1 month agoWireless peripherals and any wireless data transfer protocols are completely irrelevant to the content of this video, which is centred around wireless power transfer.
Also wireless peripherals are pretty great, not sure what you’re on about.

Koreader has so many features and qol improvements compared to the default Kindle experience.
Yeah 100x this. My bad I should have mentioned the risks.
Mine doesn’t have this option (screw whoever designed this thing), so I opened it up and smashed the buzzer with a pair of pliers.
That looks cool but the issue would be getting merchants to implement it

- Spontaneously ejaculate
- Pull out my FPGA

They might. This would never be open sourced though. Best case scenario is the boost they would provide to the ISA as a whole by having a company as big as Qualcomm backing it.

It’s quite the dichotomy.
All the different ways we’ve managed to chop up EM waves to implement the incredible wireless technologies we use daily is fascinating. But the math… Dear lord…
