Gotta love how their flight control board is the same size and mounted to the back of the ESP32 module.
Edit: It references ELRS but I don't see one of the standard Lora tower antennas used in the smallest commercial modules. They also often use an unshielded esp32 Soc instead of the full module.
The onboard embedded system is based on an ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N16R8 (dual-core
32- bit Xtensa LX7, 240 MHz, 16 MB Flash, 8 MB PSRAM), supporting parallel
real-time wing actuation and wireless communication with a custom ground
control station for data logging and monitoring. . . . and an LDO outputs 5 V
to the ExpressLRSmodule. The ELRS module serves only as a safety override for
manual control.
Truely rail-fans are transportation equivalent to vegans in food or cross-fit in exercise. I've spent many an hour on the Isle of Sodor and appreciate how useful those engines are in so many contexts. Yet still, there are buses that move alongside Percy, and pick up stranded passengers, and the Fat Controller (aka Sir Topham Hat) still has a sedan. It's a multi-modal world out there and the tractor trailer still has a place in it.
it's a reference to the last time Apple tried this in Austin, their production was throttled due to the inability of their screw supplier to meet demand.
> 63% of the IRS' audits under the Biden admin targeted those earning sub-$200K.
In 2022 92.3% of filers reported income of less than $200K [0]. An audit rate of 63% is lower than what one would expect if audit-attracting behavior was evenly distributed across the population.
The notion that audits should be evenly distributed is nonsense. Someone making sub-$200K usually has basic W2 income, versus someone making $20M a year who likely has an extremely complicated web of capital gains, deductions, strategies, carry-forward losses etc.
It doesn't even make sense from a pure cash point of view. It's better for an agent to audit someone making $20M and win a $500K judgement than it is for them to audit 1,000 $25K earners and fleece them $500 a piece. What a waste.
Audits should be exponentially lopsided, not targeted exclusively at the middle class.
When everything is turned off by default, iOS Screentime is very effective. It also has effective tools for to grant certain exceptions, facilitated by Messages. It also distinguishes between "daytime" and "downtime" for the purpose of certain apps and app attributes, like the contact list. For example, we have ourselves, grandparents and the neighbors as "all the time" contacts but their friends as daytime only. They don't retain their devices at night but it is possible for them to pull them from the charging cabinet.
> holding parents accountable for what their children consume
There is a local dive bar down the street. I haven't expressly told my kids that entering and ordering an alcoholic drink is forbidden. In fact, that place has a hamburger stand out front on weekends and I wouldn't discourage my kids from trying it out if they were out exploring. I still expect that the bartender would check their ID before pulling a pint for them.
It takes a village to raise a child. There are no panopticons for sale the next isle over from car seats. We are doing our best with very limited tooling from the client to across the network (of which the tremendously incompetent schools make a mockery with an endless parade of new services and cross dependencies). It will take a whole of society effort to lower risks.
Yes, my spouse and I were very conscious of this. My kids are now at an age where some of the just-in-case tracking chafes and they ditch trackers and turn off location on their watch. Its a normal renegotiation that occurs as they pass through various maturity thresholds. The older of them has thusfar rejected phones and watches and uses Omarchy on an old Thinkpad.
That same argument doesn't hold water on the internet. Its a communication medium. Its like a flow of information. You don't enter or leave physically spaces. the information flows to you where ever you are. trying to apply the same kinds of laws to the internet is a recipe for disaster because you are effecting everyone at the same time.
Yes, afaik authentication is performed by applications at L7 and as such flows via Internet protocols like anything else.
All kinds of laws are applied to services provided via Internet. For example, once upon a time people said collecting sales tax was an insurmountable problem and a disaster for ecommerce. Time passes and what do you know, people figured out ways to comply with laws.
Your example focused on time and place because taxes are done at a transactional level between the person purchasing goods online and receiving those goods in physically.
Age gating is not the same thing, there is no transfer of goods. It's someone's arbitrary idea of what should and shouldn't be allowed on the internet. And it's pretty clear at this point that it's about control over information. Plenty of articles on the subject if you care to look.
Taxes also apply to services and information, not just goods. I just checked some invoices to double-check my recollection.
You have made a claim that age gating some online services is an "arbitrary idea." I don't see how that is different from taxes at all. Taxes are likewise an "arbitrary idea." Taxes are likewise a societal control measure.
There is no need for articles to explain a very straightforward truth. If you are unable to make the case for something, claiming unspecified writings elsewhere doesn't get you any further.
Please do stop and reconsider your epistemology. You have provided no information, only unsupported assertions. You also made a claim about taxes that was clearly untrue since they apply to much more than physical goods.
