Charging via USB-C is DC.
So the frequency is irrelevant.
If a USB-C cable supports high power charging depends on the cable
How fast a device is charging, is usually up to the device. So when it gets older, and the battery gets bad, it intentionally charges slower. Has nothing to do with your cable.
I guess the real question is: how many Losers do not graps that "the keyboard is the computer"
Actually I want to place a Raspery Pi into my old MacIntosh SE Keyboard, but that is a different story
Like most posters here I went to public school in the 80s/90s. I think I read ~a dozen books as part of regular instruction, starting in 7th or 8th grade, and then 9-12th grade we read one novel per semester. In a couple of instances we read plays instead of ovels, like Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet. The only two exceptions to this were Moby Dick, where we only read ~20 excerpts (it's a weird book to give to 15 year olds to study, doesn't follow traditional novel format) and then Fiddler on the Roof, because there wasn't room for it in the curriculum and there was only a single question about it on the state required annual assessment exam, which I guess they knew about in advance because they effectively told us the answer the day before.
It is everywhere.
Before I noticed that, I never really got that "reading a whole book" is kind of separate skill from "just reading".
But recent years I often met people who said "I can not read a whole book", instead of "I do not like reading books".
Pretty odd
>They're currently accusing the current administration of doing EXACTLY what they'll gleefully do the instant they have any advantage.
Give it a rest. "accusing" the current administration of doing? Come on. The fascist administration knows no law, and they are abusing the law to the FULLEST.
SO don't give me that crap about "The Democrats MAY do it" They could have hung Trump out to dry with the Epstein files. They didn't because it wasn't *lawful* to do so.
God I hate you stupid anons. You think your argument holds water? Post under your real name. I think you know it's shit and are just stirring your own little shit pot.
> If you have a capitalist society the money focused criminals are going to go into private business.
Why? Those private businesses are regulated by Congress and so forth on down the line to local city councils. They are the gatekeepers, and punishers.
People who go into congress suddenly have their wealth explode. Why is that? Certainly nothing corrupt! Lol. Right. Sorry but politics is *very* corrupt. And that was even BEFORE Trump! Now, there are so many illegal acts at so many levels of government in so many different departments it is mindboggling.
So yeah, maybe politics attracts the corrupt and corruptible (the "corrupt adjacent").
Perhaps you should simply look up how refining of rare earth material work.
Stupid idiot.
If you have not burned the Clinton flags by now, I take one.
Sent me a message on ebay, please
Canada is mountains, rivers, lakes and forest.
I guess a random Canadian survives in the wilderness much better than a random USAsian.
They could bomb the cities, but not conquer the land. Sad is: they might sooner do that than we even imagine.
The problem is not "close enough", but that people call one system better than the other one: for no rational reason.
Divide ability for example makes no sense at all. You never have the problem in real live to count 3/16th from a whole unit and it is kind of important that this is a kind of even number. You take a fucking ruler or any other tool to do that: and measure it.
The only "point" those silly people arguing with that is: 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 and 1/16 are kind of easy to do "by hand". And then I backfire to them: and now see, 1/12 is not.
But the imperial morons have stupid ideas why dividing by
In your mind everything is decimal anyway. Or a foot would be 10 inches
So, you are doing math in a 10 based number system and have measurements in a 12 based, 16 based, or other based system, but have to use numbers based on 10, to use those other systems
The point is: rare earths are not rare. It is just a name they got in the 1800ds when "they knew" those elements need to be there, but had no clue how to find/detect them.
They are eerywhere.
They do not cause any particular environmental hazard. Unless you kind of deliberately make one. They do not involve slave labour or child labour unless you have earth moving equipment cheap enough to entrust it a slave or small enough to entrust it a child.
And so on
The US does not mine them because they do not want. That is all. There is no damn other reason.
They do not want it, because it saved them a few million bucks
Before I have a kitchen in my factory, with 10 cooks and 100 staff, and a small extra "sourcing group" aligned to the department doing all of our purchases
Only marginable decent.
But for old versions of Pac Man, it might be okay.
Well, prices in Germany are like:
- 30cents for households (including grid costs)
- 4cents per kWh for the industry, plus grid cost, which can be "whatever" but is usually similar to the pure energy cost, so it is 8cents in total.
- mid range business is in the 8cents range + grid cost of 4cents, in total 12cents
Well, the "negative stuff" you mention, "cancer village" (what is that?) and all the other BS: does not exist in China - since decades.
But you have a worldview you have to protect so that's not on the menu.
No, you got it all wrong.
You have a wold view from 30 years ago, or even 50.
China has slaves, yes. Real slaves. People that get or got kidnapped and are forced to be slaves. Just recently they freed a dozens.
And mind boggeling story of an ~80 year old man who finally found his 60 year old son who was kidnapped at roughly age of 16.
Slavers usually get executed. Still happens. After all: it is a bit difficult to free a slave
Sorry, your world view does not reflect anything about China.
For example, rare earths are mined with Excavators in the deserts and refined with water. Perhaps the legal amount of hours one can work per day is far over 8h - no idea.
But there is no fucking difference in worker protection or environmental protection in China versus the USA. If you want to dig into the differences: then China is far ahead versus your 3rd world country.
Children in the workforce in China, HA HA HA HA. They are in SCHOOL. Or in UNIVERSITY.
It does not really make sense to compare "local costs" that way.
Especially if you do not even know if that is home consumer end price or an industrial price.
If you want to compare prices, you have to figure how much one for example can buy from a monthly wage.
Silly example, a good bottle of beer in Germany costs about 1EUR. Minimum wage per hour is ca. 1OEUR. After taxes let's say it is 5.
So for one hour working a simple job, you can buy 5 beers. Or a bit more than one gallon (3l) gasoline. Or 15kWh if electricity.
In Thailand a beer is much more expensive. But the bottle is a tick bigger. Let's say it is about 1.5OEUR per bottle.
Minimum wage is about 6 bottles per day.
Now let's turn this around and look at a beer price in a restaurant. The price doubles (actually it is less) in Thailand but goes up factor 5 or 6 in Germany. While a pub or bar in Thailand is a little bit more than double, but in Germany easy 10 times the super market prices.
Now we have the basics about the beer.
How many meals can a German (at minimum wage) buy for one day work?
Ca. 65,- money per day, yields about 5 or 6 meals (talking about simple meals at a random shop, not home cooked).
For a Thai the minimum wage yields about 8 meals.
I have no idea about the energy prices in China versus USA. However if it concerns you, you have to know how much you earn per energy unit produced/consumed.
