For those who own an Apple TV, I'm fairly sure it hooks up to actual TVs, not bare monitors. If that's the case, the tuner within likely receives big events like this over-the-air, digitally, even. What percentage of the US can't receive OTA TV? W…

NHTSA also went further to report that accidents (at least those enough to trigger an airbag) are reduced by nearly 40% for Teslas equipped with autopilot, from 1.3 crashes per million to 0.8 per million. Not "left turn across path" stuff quite ye…

Being AT&T for the nonce, the 30GB shared data is $130 for the main line, plus $15 per line, so $190 / per month for 4. The four of us got sick of pesky overage fees, so now the "no overage" version is $135, plus $20 per line. $160 per month vi…

I wish Cree would do hubless Bluetooth for their high-CRI offerings -- did something particularly new in the Bluetooth standard allow for this?

Will this include station status, so an EV driver doesn't have to drive location to location only to find that a stall is taken?

Good to see this. This is among the reasons why I turned down the opportunity to work at NeXT and Apple. I actually was cheeky enough to tell Jobs in person that since many science types build upon and share the work of others, he might have a ha…

Hopefully, the next iMac with TB3 can allow Target Display Mode again.

As this is an "apportionment" issue, Apple should be careful of what it wishes for. E.g. patent trolls like VirnetX already have hundreds of millions of damage awards against Apple (under appeal) for demanding X% of Apple's profits for a single fea…

Technical correction to post #27. These were two patents of VHC deemed invalid by PTAB that did not incorporate the Kiuchi references. The correct citations are, invalidating the other 2 of 4 patents: https://www.scribd.com/document/323459997/IPR…

VirnetX, last I heard, uses their own "tunneling protocol" which Apple, nor Cisco, which was sued for the same thing, does not use. That the jury in the Cisco case came to the opposite conclusion speaks of the random nature of juries. As for engine…

The problem with this case is multi-fold, aside from the venue. Apple did indeed find prior art. Their VPN implementation is all laid out in a paper by Kuichi: https://www.isoc.org/isoc/conferences/ndss/96/ndss96/kiuchi.ps Together with workmen-…

Another website reports that on the dual-lens 7s, only the wide-angle lens has optical image stabilization. What's up with that? Wouldn't OIS help better with camera shake on the zoom lens?
