  • From their FAQ on the product page:

    Will there be accessories, like a spare battery and protective case?

    Yes, there will be. We’ll make those available on due course the project.

    I know it's not a complete answer to your question, but it seems, at least, that the battery will be replaceable.

  • Study Boldly Claims 4K And 8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes, But Is It True?

  • Oh, I see. But yeah, it's a pretty big difference.

    You're welcome. I like to think that I like thinking about things and stuff.

  • if you think about it

    I tried that, and I'm not totally sure about the correctness of my numbers, but your numbers intuitively seem off to me:

    a 50" 1080p TV is almost 10x the size [of a 7" screen]

    How did you arrive at this? I'd argue a 50" screen is much more than 10 times the size of a 7" screen.

    The inches are measured diagonally, and I see how 50" is somewhat "almost 10x" of 7", as 49" would be 7 times longer diagonally than a 7", and 7.something is " almost" 10.

    But if we assume both screens have a 16:9 ratio, the 50" screen has a width of ≈110.69 cm and height of ≈62.26 cm, while the 7" is only ≈15.50 by ≈8.72 cm.

    The area of the 7" is 135.08 cm² while for the 50" it's ≈6891.92 cm². The ratio between these two numbers is ≈51.02, which I believe means the 50" screen is more than 51x the physical size.

    At least, that number seems more realistic to me. I'm looking at my 6.7" phone screen right now and comparing it to my 55" TV screen, and it seems very possible that the phone screen could fit more than 50 times inside the TV screen, not just "almost 10x".

    If I totally misunderstood you, please explain what you mean.

    My numbers for width and height were calculated using this display calculator site that someone else mentioned somewhere under this post, and I rounded the decimals after doing the calculations with all decimals included.

  • Passenger trains in the United States vs Europe

    Jump

  • If the train (with a locomotive engine, I assume) wasn't invented until 1804, as per the comment you're replying to, were those first railways in 1795 used with animals like horses? Or maybe there's a disagreement on what counts as the first "real" railway?

  • Passenger trains in the United States vs Europe

    Jump

  • Interesting, well-written and nerdy report from 2013! I wonder if the aspects of the trans-European rail situation (pricing, travel times, frequencies, interconnectivity, train changes etc.) have gotten better or worse since then.

  • Printers leave a watermark on each page indicating the exact printer that it came from. Are there any other examples of these privacy violations that aren't common knowledge?

  • I just occured to me that could be the reason for when a color printer wont even let you print, say, pure black text, even though it only has emptied some of the colored ink, but still has plenty of black ink left to do the job...
