Do you know what the signal bar on a phone actually represents? My commute has quite a few areas with good (full or almost full) ‘signal’ but with the no internet exclamation mark.
That’s why I have assumed it’s a bandwidth to the mast problem.
Ultimately, phone networks are not built to cope with commuter trains ☹️
That’s a cool resource. Ty
I think they were trying to make the point that we HAD faster speeds, but it was discovered that most people didn’t really need it and were happy paying less to go slower. They are comparing this to 6G, sure, some will use it, but for most it will be a needless expense.
On the actual supersonic air travel point - eh, is it really needed considering the massive extra energy required?
Why would they volunteer to do up some land for you to sell for a profit though?
Seems unethical if your not telling them your plan.
Wasn’t there a spate of phone camera stabilisers being broken/worn out because they were strapped to bikes?
You want them all in one place so that they can be uploaded in one go to your fitness tracking site. That lets you see what your HR, power and cadence all where on that specific hill for example.
I used to have a Fitbit that used my phone for GPS and it was awful and drained the batteries on both devices. I guess the idea of having 5G is that you don’t actually take your phone with you, one less thing to have to force into your pockets.
Talk to a specialist estate agent. Trawl though sales listings.
I imagine the price difference will be less than the cost of improvements though.
I have more issues with the fact that I have no usable signal on 1/3 of my commute (closer to 2/3 unusable tuesday-wednesday!) than issues with peak speed.
The R&D money would be better spent laying fibre to phone masts. I suspect it will be spent on dividends instead though ☹️
Edit: unless more research is required to increase users/mast? It’s fine in cities, so I’m assuming it more a bandwidth to the mast issue?
All that does is cost them money for the adds, then increase their running costs by adding users.
It’s good for the community, but not great for them.
Who is ‘lemmy’ though. Without someone making money there is no motivation to do that.
This! You can curate the algorithm to work for you!
Not much activity I can see on the accounts I looked at?
It looks like it was for some points on a left turn, so much lower than on normal track etc.
I mean, assuming nothing will happen for at least 5 years (this stuff always takes ages) then it could come with some conditions on emissions - yes you can now fly 50% more planes, but lets say you have an emission cap of 120% (numbers made up).
That gives them an incentive to start looking at this stuff now - airlines will know they won’t get new slots unless they do it in an environmentally way.
I think the idea is that you can optimise it for the model or maybe? (Guessing mostly)
Who/what is ADL?
The stronger the material the thinner it could be.
There are a lot of properties in the word ‘stronger’ though.
You have to be pretty close to sniff Bluetooth data though. So fine at home, less so in a busy public space. (The chances of someone there trying to hack your Bluetooth is still astranomically small)
… I assume they have both the phone and laptop with them when they are away from home?
