It’s got RGB. Man, it must do so much FPS (fabric per second).

Depending on the internal design of the phone, maybe.
But batteries are rectangular and they can’t put them EVERYWHERE. There are places (such as near the USB port) where you can’t really put battery no matter what because there have to be things that would interfere with the rectangular battery.
So it might have an effect, but not necessarily, depending on design, and it might be smaller than you’d think.
I hate that this is true. Why are we like this.
I’d have expected ad providers to catch on pretty quickly that there’s cheating involved, no?
I think that’s right for a website where you accidentally clicked an ad and now it’s trying to convince you you have a virus and you need to download their virus to remove it. Or maybe for an ad pop-up where annoying you might increase the chances that the content makes it into your brain.
But for a news website i have trouble seeing the logic.
Well you don’t say it draws 2 kWh at idle. You say it draws 2 kW at idle. While that is incredibly inefficient, it means that for every hour the device is idle, it draws 2 kWh of energy.
Oh yeah battery size isn’t sufficient to fully gauge battery life. You need to know power draw to calculate that. And it’s good to get battery life ratings from reviews. Great. It helps a lot.
But it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t get good, comparable physical specs.
Kinda like processors. Gigahertz and core counts are far from telling you everything, but it doesn’t mean it should be abstracted into some weird unit.
How should I go about that exactly?
What? They draw power, not energy?
Energy is just the product of power and time. And just like amperage, the power draw of a device varies.
And this should be obvious, but what makes more sense to an electronics engineer doesn’t matter one bit to the end user. And the end user doesn’t know anything about milli-amperes or volts (except maybe their wall outlet voltage).
Yes. I really wish all batteries used watt-hours. All it’d take would be for someone to design a phone that runs at a different voltage and their battery numbers would stop being comparable.
I disagree. Joules are really hard to understand to laypeople. Watt-hours directly relate to the power of a device without conversion, and can even be really translated in terms of power bill.
3.6 megajoules? Eh, I guess that’s maybe a lot? Or not?
1000 watt-hours? Oh, like running a microwave for a whole hour? Dang that’s a LOT!
It saves an amount of money so minuscule it literally makes no difference.
As for thickness, the iPhone 15 is 7.8 mm thick. You cannot in good faith believe that a 3.5 mm headphone jack can’t fit in it.
Wait it was? How are we still seeing it and commenting on it?
I’ve always wondered. Is there really a benefit to a ton of redirects like that? Like, do they gain anything by making it harder to back out?
Or is it just extremely incompetent website programming?
I’m surprised that happens! Seems like a complicated mistake to make.
If I order an Americano and you serve me a filter black coffee, I swear …
That would work for projects important enough to be worth the government’s attention. But we don’t want every small project ever to be dependent on that.
Do you really see some teenager trying to meet a civil servant to explain how their Super Random RPG 2025 wiki is worth it, and the project is finally accepted (or refused, because the civil servant isn’t too hot about giving government money to something about video games) half a year later, when the most intense players, who would have contributed to such a platform a lot, have already finished the game?
I absolutely like that idea and I think it could be great for big sites like Wikipedia and various Internet Archive projects.
But I really don’t think it solves everything.
I’ve got a feeling that advertising companies have ways to differentiate real and fake clicks. Best case scenario, they wouldn’t count those. Worst case scenario, they could notice that too many clicks are fake and revoke the monetization for a website.
If captchas exist, surely they can use similar methods to catch ad cheats like that.
This is older, and not quite the same but back when I was into private Ragnarok Online servers, it was pretty well-known among server admins that you couldn’t ask people to click your ads. Either because you asked, either because they noticed unusual activity, Google would demonetize the ads pretty quickly.
Servers and bandwidth aren’t free. Someone needs to pay for it. There are roughly seven ways to fund a website:
What would you do for review sites? News sites? Video game wikis?
Wouldn’t it suck if a wiki for an old game was just gone because there aren’t many players anymore, and now you just can’t access the info in it?
Marvelous. Thanks. Now I can make those super user-hostile websites usable.
Edit: wow blocking ads breaks a lot of interactivity on Fextralife though. The programming is weird I guess🤔
That looks delicious. I wanna try.
