iPhone 15 overheating reports, with temperatures as high as 116F
  • It depends on how you're holding it and how spread that heat is. 46° isn't something great to be grasping for extended periods of time, but if you're physically touching 30°C parts of the phone and a part with no physical contact with your skin is 46°C, it's probably not that bad.

    My s7 edge used to hit these temps. The annoying part was the throttling and shutdowns. I never really felt like I was burning my hands using the thing.

  • iPhone 15 overheating reports, with temperatures as high as 116F
  • Yeah. My s7 edge (remember when that was a gimmick and not standard?) would overheat and shut down if I used gps, charging, and music streaming at the same time.

    43°C/116°F isn't unusual. Even in the us, Celsius is probably the better term because cpu temps are generally in science-oriented units, not garden variety units. Also easier to contextualize since using degrees centigrade also works as a pretty straightforward percentage meter. 0°C is great for a cpu. 85°C is generally bad. 100°C is "you need to turn off your device" bad. 43° seems pretty typical.

  • Don't ask me which ones tho, cuz I'm an old
  • Wal-mart had a separate aisle. It was by itself, and the nearby aisles were kind of split 50/50 for "boy" or "girl" toys. Like I think lego and action figures were on one side, Barbie on the other?

  • A Supreme Court case about hotel websites could blow up much of US civil rights law
  • The ADA issues at play in the lawsuit largely stem from ADA claims against websites.

    It's a real issue where some small business makes a non-ADA compliant website and gets shaken down by sketchy law firms that hire disabled people to be straw plaintiffs (AKA "testers") to find websites that are in violation.

    From the article:

    The ADA permits a plaintiff challenging a violation of this rule to obtain an injunction requiring a non-compliant hotel to fix its website, and it allows that plaintiff to have their attorney’s fees paid by the defendant if the plaintiff prevails in court. But the plaintiff may not obtain money damages if they prevail.

    So some small business has to fix their website that the "tester" never would have used on their own, and they have to pay the law firm that hired the tester's legal fees too. And then the law firm pays the tester.

    The ADA is a pre-internet rule, and its enforcement mechanism and regulations around have never been updated for the digital age, so scummy lawyers are making a killing off it.

    For the record, the solution is easy: update the ADA like disability advocates have been calling for ages.

  • Bill Gates-backed nuclear contender Terra Power aims to build dozens of UK reactors
  • You can hardly blame that just on Gates. Every moron in the government has been pushing standardized tests as some way of grading teachers and schools for decades at this point, and this program coincided with Obama's equally disastrous and very similar federal program. Which was an improvement over Bush's even more disastrous program.

    Especially when you realize Gate's program was of limited scope while Dubbya/Obama/Trump's DOE's fuckups covered the entire country for a far longer period of time.

  • US scientists achieve net energy gain for second time in a fusion reaction
  • Admittedly, you'd need a layer of ozone (self sustaining so long as you don't have some kind of chemical that causes ozone to not form, but who'd have that?). And probably some kind of hot liquid metal contraption in the middle of the earth, sustained by, like Uranium decay or tidal friction or something, to generate a magnetic field to protect us.

    Some Irish people would probably still die of radiation poisoning on beaches, but that's a sacrifice the rest of us are willing to make.

  • White mom sues Southwest Airlines over "blatant racism" after alleged human trafficking flag
  • Yeah. How much human trafficking is actually going on at airports with a "parent" flying "their" child somewhere?

    If some sicko is a billionaire with a private jet and is THAT dedicated to getting a kid to them, they'll fly them on their private jet. You know, like Epstein.

    And if they're the "usual" human chattel that is treated like cattle, they're probably being transported in some slower, cheaper method than a plane that (1) costs way more and (2) has a dozen security mechanisms designed to catch you.

    This is just racism and people buying into Qanon propaganda.

  • "Hank the Tank," notorious Lake Tahoe bear, being sent to Colorado rehab
  • A fed bear is a dead bear. If the mom can't be rehabed, they gotta put her down. It's too dangerous to leave them alive - even if you relocate, they'll just move until they find easy to raid people and become a danger. Black bears usually are fearful or wary of humans - if they lose this, they're a danger to people and themselves (people often defend themselves against bears with guns that fail to immediately kill the bear. The end result is a bear that dies a slow and agonizing death.

    Surprised they're even trying rehab. It usually fails.

    The cubs aren't as lost a cause.
