If you try to use it with a free operating system, it’s not possible.

Technology@lemmy.world•Article: I switched to eSIM in 2025, and I am full of regretEnglish
5·21 days agoFrom the phone manufacturer, it’s fewer traces and less mechanical design work.
From the carrier side, it requires you to have their spyware installed to register the Sim
From a user perspective, someone can’t just steal your Sim and put it in another phone

25·21 days agoThat really is how these companies think.
I’ve seen car companies selling $100,000+ cars sweating over whether we use a $0.10 more expensive part that would last 3x longer than the cheaper one

8·23 days agoI think it’s common for the antennas to contain both GPS and LTE. I think the fuse would power the whole fin?
On the head unit side, they’re generally separate cables

3·23 days agoThat’s what most? cars used for a long time (there is also GENIVI)
Many manufacturers are switching to Android as the base OS so they can just hire app developers rather than developers that know other UI toolkits

4·23 days agoOn most cars, it’s probably easier to unplug it on the head unit side. They’re generally designed to be accessed for repair
Bindings have been getting added to the Linux kernel so drivers can theoretically be written in Rust
Android has moved its IPC mechanism, Binder, over to Rust

I hope that’s helping them more than whether I listen to a scraped digital copy or not

Technology@lemmy.world•Explained: Why you can't move Windows 11 taskbar like Windows 10, according to MicrosoftEnglish
6·30 days agoWhat this essentially means is that when the taskbar sits at the bottom, Windows and third-party apps know exactly how much horizontal space they have to work with.
Ah, so I assume they will remove support for any resolutions other than 1920x1080, since they need a consistent horizontal size, and that’s the most common.

Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla Robotaxis Are Crashing More Than 12 Times as Frequently as Human DriversEnglish
1·1 month agoI’m sure all the Tesla apologist that kept saying “it only has to be safer than a human” whenever we pointed out how poorly the Tesla self-driving system works will change their tune now.
… Right?
Some of the lidar based systems might work eventually, but Musk’s “humans only have eyes, so we only need cameras” is unlikely to ever work

Technology@lemmy.world•U.S. Pedestrian Deaths Up 77% Since 2009 & The Auto Industry Knew It Would HappenEnglish
91·1 month agoI’m not sure how you got to “cars bad” when it explicitly talks about an increase from 2009, and that it’s the largest increase of vehicle fatalities.
Modern cars have significantly larger blind spots than cars from 2009, which is part of what they’re suggesting is the cause.
I’ve also seen other reports pointing out that the taller hood height is more likely to kill a pedestrian, rather than just injure them, in the case of a collision

Open Source@lemmy.ml•HDMI Forum is unwilling to disclose the 2.1 specification for open-source (Linux): according to AMD, they had submitted a functional, HDMI 2.1-compatible driver [for linux?], which the Forum rejected.English
6·1 month agonvidia has HDMI 2.1 last I checked.
They can do it because their driver (even nvidia “open”) is a proprietary blob


They’re using the new SOCAMM standard, which current consumer hardware can’t use.
It’s a different physical interface.
Whether it will end up coming to consumer grade motherboards… 🤷♂️
