Opposite for me (S22 Ultra and iPhone 13). Seems like they might both need some work

$1600 brick

I have both an iPhone 13 and an S22 Ultra (which is my primary phone)

For what it's worth, I didn't get anything on the S22, even though earthquake notifications were turned on (checked after). I did get a USGS notification on the iPhone, though.

I didn't have the iPhone on me though, so feeling the earthquake itself was how I actually found out.

I'm by no means a conspiracy theorist, but this is why I've never used Siri or Alexa. Typing shit out doesn't take long, and if I'm driving, they can wait.

I feel like we have an “equivalent” level of prediction now for hurricanes, and yet…

The earthquake warning has a specific sound, so you would know why your phone is blowing up even if you aren’t looking at it

Earthquake warnings have a specific sound so you wouldn’t need to look at the alert to take action.

soldering looks like it was done manually

if it's not custom cable, isn't it cheaper and better with automatic machine...

well first iteration so maybe there wasn't one by the deadline who knows

Now you have to say "FBI" before activating this feature on remote Siri.

What about your past self

Why do they want your hose to burn down? The power supply connector part should be just simple electronics. With that much power draw you need to design it safely.

The 50xx cards should better be equipped with something like this.

Just open the bay doors so the equipment can get out….

Similar experience. I’m closer to San Jose and was on a video call with someone in Oakland. My husband got the notice on his android and crossed our yard tell me about it around the time I started feeling the shaking. My colleague in Oakland didn’t feel anything for what felt like several seconds.

The big TLDR is that the issue with the adapter is the connector's poor quality construction that leaves it fragile and easily susceptible to being damaged.

Combined with high amperage, the bending of cables and a user not be ultra careful with plugging in the cable, can result in hot spots that heat up enough to start melting the plastic.

The salt to the wound is that PSU manufacturers' 12VHPWR adapters are safer to use because of their more robust construction.

> A good example of a functioning connection are, for example, the two 12VHPWR cables of the new be quiet! Dark Power Pro 13, which I still show here as an example. Because there you don’t have to do the balancing act with the voltage bridges, but spend each pin its own 16AWG line. Sure, 12 thick wires in one cable is not that sexy now either, but it is at least an accurate and clean solution. I also snapped these cables right at the connector several times and did much of my testing for the GeForce RTX 4090 as well as the Intel Core i9-13900K in the lab with them on the redundant test system.

...

> The overall build quality of the included adapter for the GeForce RTX 4090, which is distributed by NVIDIA itself, is extremely poor and the internal construction should never have been approved like this. NVIDIA has to take its own supplier to task here, and replacing the adapters in circulation would actually be the least they could do. I will therefore summarize once again what has struck those involved (myself included) so far:

> - The problem is not the 12VHPWR connection as such, nor the repeated plugging or unplugging.

> - Standard compliant power supply cables from brand manufacturers are NOT affected by this so far.

> - The current trigger is NVIDIA’s own adapter to 4x 8-pin in the accessories, whose inferior quality can lead to failures and has already caused damage in single cases.

> - Splitting each of the four 14AWG leads onto each of the 6 pins in the 12VHPWR connector of the adapter by soldering them onto bridges that are much too thin is dangerous because the ends of the leads can break off at the solder joint (e.g., when kinked or bent several times).

> - Bending or kinking the wires directly at the connector of the adapter puts too much pressure on the solder joints and bridges, so that they can break off.

> - The inner bridge between the pins is too thin (resulting cross section) to compensate the current flow on two or three instead of four connected 12V lines.

> - NVIDIA has already been informed in advance and the data and pictures were also provided by be quiet! directly to the R&D department.

> Actually, I wanted to do something completely different today, but this correction was more important to me. Blanket panic and gloating are really bad advisors here when it comes to introducing new standards. That AMD has not (yet) joined the plug change was shown in my news about one of the upcoming board partners. But if you, like NVIDIA, take such a radical step, then at least the included accessories should work properly over after a little bending and ensure a safe, stable operation of the graphics cards.

FIIL T2 Pro.

80$ with decent ANC and great fit, sound and battery life.

I've had the T1 Pro for over a year now and got it specifically for jogging (No mainstream earbuds fit my weird ears even anything between 100-400$ falls within minutes) and I've been been enjoying them so much I use them for everything, sounds as good as my wired 150$ Sennheiser.

I didn't personally try the T2 but everything I see about it says it's basically T1 but better in every way.

No problem if your drilling a hole. But if your using a table saw or circular saw it’s generally safer to finish your cut before you start worrying about why your phone is blowing up. If you even hear it of course.

Not at all, I wear the 955 solar

Interestingly I can tell you almost exactly the propagation of this quake. I was on a zoom call with 2 others at the time, and we were about 10, 25, and 40 miles away from the epicenter.

It was confusing at first, but from when I noticed it to when the guy 15 miles (actually more like 13) away noticed it was about 4-5 seconds. So maybe 3-ish miles per second? Was pretty cool to experience that in real time :)

Also, “paid off yesterday” may be a bit of a misnomer. It certainly was a great test, but the quake itself was really mild, if longer than normal for a 5.1. I can’t imagine there were any injuries. Probably a lot of people diving under desks and then sheepishly saying… “was that it?” (But hey, you won’t know how big it is until it hits, so dive away!)

People definitely do buy them in India... Not as much because of price but some do spend months of salary for an iphone.

150" to enjoy the personal theater experience...

It's usually as big as your wall/living room can fit.

It's the other way around actually... It's all about DPI.

Jailbroken iPhone :)

Issue is HDR content needing very high brightness display to work properly.

High enough to make you squint when the sun is on screen in a lit room.

So those panels will consume more energy when playing HDR content there's no way around this.

Most of the time it consumes as much as a fridge even for 65" TVs..

10 seconds warning for a grenade is WAY better than none
