Pairing is the reason. You have good control over your connections and don't need passwords.

Only time I've ever had major coil whine is with a GTX 780 while playing the first Witcher. The fix was forcing Vsync.

I've had it with different devices. First noticed it on my old gaming laptop's CPU (6th-gen Intel Core aka Skylake), currently getting annoyed by a desktop PSU facing me because I've set the PC up caseless on a wooden board and wanted easy access to the mains switch. When that PSU was built into a case facing rearwards, I never noticed any coil whine, but now it's all pain and agony.
I also have a disk copy station I use as a simple low-power NAS with a RAID setup. That thing also has a constant coil whine, but it's located in another room, so I can't normally hear it. But if I want to know whether the disks are currently running or in standby, I need to actually touch the station for vibrations because their operational noise is too similar to the station's own coil whine. I hate this shit.

Except you don't. It just suddenly doesn't work for no fucking reason at all.

Never had that, unless it was a faulty device. Except... This reminds me of the fact that the Pixel 9 doesn't support my professional Jabra headset because it's not BLE. Well, I hate this shit, too. It worked absolutely flawlessly with my Pixel 6.

Some people have already found ways to play videos through their car infotainment screens, but Apple will soon be offering that capability with Apple CarPlay.
They said that there will be safeguards to "prevent" people from watching videos while the car is in motion, but expect dumb people to find ways to get around it, and then inevitably crash their cars when they do so.

The safeguard for aftermarket head units, for the last 20 years, has been the handbrake must be engaged. But you just ground that wire so its always "engaged"

I really do not like how one has to be constantly updating, updating, updating just to stay afloat on the Clown World (and India) honknet.

If united states was serious about having a real economy and not being China's little brother I should be able to see listing on Poojeetzon that are like Alibaba listings where you search for what product you want and you are connected with a manufacturer almost immediately. Usually the listing gives examples of the product that they make and you can do a special order to customize it, like if you want lager or smaller you can order it custom. I don't know of any online marketplace that hires united states people the way Alibaba hires the Chinese to build anything you can think of. The Tariffs are only about making united states people poorer. It has nothing to do with globalisation or domestic manufacturing security.

I remember first hearing about this. What kind of retarded nigger baby logic is this? Is the average person really that retarded? (probably)

I’m more angry at the fact that I can’t rip out the head unit of newer cars and throw in an aftermarket one. Would rather deal with Kenwood or Alpine over the dogshit one in my wife’s kicks.
She’s had it for about six months now and the infotainment center has just stopped working for a bit.

Earlier, 2020s was the insane push that corporations did for censorship. By 2015 everything felt corporatized already and there was political correctness everywhere; huge reason I hate the 2010s. 2014 was the last year you could really make huge dollars on ad revenue and unless you were a big name, you were fucked and had to censor the fuck out of your content just to stay remotely monetized. I remember everyone around this time was being copyright struck as well for minor things, even though technically should've been protected under parody.

Aside from trying -- and failing -- to sound human and all the endless "hallucinations", another thing I do not like about LLM "answers" is how they seem to always give this overly broad overview on the subject, and may list endless factors that they "think" are relevant. Trusting an LLM for answers is like using a "Magic 8 Ball" for a forecast.

Hey, guys, do you hate how the Discord is implementing features akin to the UK's Online Safety Act? I bet you're thinking of switching chat providers, huh?
Well guess what? "Child Safety" is coming to you in your Operating System in the coming year.
Very odd how governments that seemed kosher with letting kids getting stabbed and raped for decades are now very concerned about the safety of kids all of a sudden. Crazy, huh?

It'd be easier to ask me what I like about tech. Because my hate outweighs my likes. What I like, pirating.
That's it.

O person who signed up around 6 hours ago, what specifically do you like pirating?

Primarily movies / TV shows. I'm not paying 50 different streaming services (many from companies I hate i.e. amazon / netflix) to watch a handful of shows. But throw in music, too. If I can't get it on a CD or outright MP3 / Flac it's being pirated.
And there is a ton of media that's hard to get a hold of. And I'm no fan of having to dig in an online dumpster like a digital Wasserberg hoping to find it on eBay.

The establishment elites are afraid of kids getting access to 'far-right propaganda' early on. They want only the approved channels, like school and TV, to propagate to young minds.

The trend of adding voice commands to cars is becoming a plague, because auto makers are trying to push those because they replaced almost all physical controls with a GIANT ASS INFOTAINMENT SCREEN instead.
And in China, a voice command caused someone to crash his car. He said a command to turn off the interior lights in his Lynk & Co Z20 car, but it turned off the exterior lights, and he crashed into a guardrail while trying to turn the lights back on. Following that crash, Lynk & Co had to push an emergency OTA update so that you can't turn off external lights with voice commands. / Archive
It's also another step towards implementing the digital ID systems that are being pushed lately, so that Governments can instantly and effectively delete you from existence if you visit a "no-no" website just once.

I don't know if my car can do voice commands, but it does have the giant-ass-screen. Where I live we sometimes get this stuff called "rain" or "fog" or "clouds" which all mean you should turn on the headlights. Which is now several accurate taps required while driving down the fucking road as the auto-lights don't come on nearly soon enough. I've been searching but no one has just implemented a fucking knob you can hook to the CANBUS that I can find. At least the climate controls are mostly physical except for a couple like changing the vent settings.
