I remember Quick Sync. Tried it on my Sandy Bridge cpu with handbrake and was amazed at the speed until I look at the video!

I even did test with a newer (at the time) Mac and the Mac was only a few minutes behind the i7-920 but the quality was junk.

Manufacturers can’t even maintain OIDs between releases. I hope the AI will help. Ciena isn’t any better than Cisco, they broke their OIDS for the switches we use and we have to wait until mid 2027.

My wife has a new EV and it says we saved 44 gallons this month and I only spent $100 on charging. $45 dollars of it was testing an expensive DC charger that’s 3x as expensive as my house.

Same concern I have with the Chinese golf carts/LSVs. They look very nice and have so many standard features even car play. I know a few people that bought Chinese brands that only existed for 3 years.

Why would they do any of that when they can track your phone? There’s a 911 equipment that can position you inside a building when you call 911. The systems are already out here you don’t need a not-the-FBI unmarked van taking TPMS readings.

Look up NextNav.

You have to pay for it. I believe it’s only available as a monthly subscription instead of buying it outright.

I’m casually in the hobby but I’ve been able to identify way more birds than I thought I could. Started with a small bird feeder at my house. Now, when I go deer hunting I turn on the Merlin Bird ID app and try to find what it’s hearing.

The bird feeder attracted way to many mice and rats. I wish I didn’t have to take it down.

They alerted my old accounts email. It had a number and email that wasn’t mine. The scammer used an Authenticator app that made it harder to cancel.

Someone opened up a PayPal account in my name a few weeks ago using an old address. I canceled my PayPal account years ago because I was afraid of it being linked to my bank.

It took an hour to get past the AI who kept hanging up on me. I’m more concerned after reading the article.
