    Citizen SOS App - Volunteers Needed

    we’re trying to avoid asking users to set up additional, invasive accounts so blasting followers seemed easy as a first step. Definitely think telco level Citizen SOS is the ultimate goal though.

    Citizen SOS App - Volunteers Needed

    All, I'm involved in a project to develop a one-button app that will instantly message all your social media followers and member groups your GPS location (link to routing) and a message that you need volunteers to witness an event such as a stop by authorities. The idea being more cameras is...

    What are you playing now? [2018-2021]

    Fioptics in Cincinnati's lowest tier is $48 for 500 Mbps fiber-to-the-house. Not too shabby.

    Is the battery life of the iphone better?

    No, that’s dark theme. Haven’t used white since switching to this one.

    Is the battery life of the iphone better?

    Pretty much every phone has non-replaceable batteries.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 [PC]

    "They" would be the combination of Microsoft (optimizing DX12) and developers learning how to optimize their code for DX12. Either way, the graphical upgrades in DX12 do not yet, in many people's minds, justify the performance drop.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 [PC]

    Have they manged to get DX12 up to DX11 speeds when no DX12-only features are being used? That would seem to be a prerequisite to killing off DX11 in my book.

    Is the battery life of the iphone better?

    Yeah, I picked up an 11 Pro Max and I go two days between charges and even then I'm still at 50%. I'm sure it will degrade with time, but this sucker is great right now.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 [PC]

    I'm trying to decide if there's any reason to play the PC version if you finished the console version. I thought it was a very good game, BTW. First one I've played all the way through since my injury - my time is very limited for gaming as I work full time and have zero energy left by the time...

    W.T.F. Nvidia

    When Bill Gates said nobody would need more than, what was it again? 640 KB RAM? Is the problem that CPU power and ample RAM have made developers a bit lazy?

    Mize walking with a bionic exoskeleton!!!

    If only. In cycling the best predictor of performance is the athlete's functional threshold power (FTP). This is essentially the maximum power one can output for a full sixty minutes. As a leg-cyclist, my FTP was 310 watts. As a handcyclist, my FTP is 90 watts. :( There are very few areas...

    Mize walking with a bionic exoskeleton!!!

    LOL. Thanks, but what are my options? Certainly there's suicide; that's insanely easy as a paraplegic, btw. Once I came home from the hospital I had my wife move my nightstand firearm (in a safe in a drawer) for fear I'd use it during a depressive bout. But months later it occurred to me that a...

    Mize walking with a bionic exoskeleton!!!

    In terms of technology, I'm trying to get a demo/trial of a couple "C-brace" units. These are leg braces that use the same microcontroller logic found in the latest prosthetic knees. The idea is that, with two of these and a walker, I might be able to walk (therapeutically, not practically)...

    Mize walking with a bionic exoskeleton!!!

    Man, life's been crazy the last few months. The latest from the resident gimp is that I did my first handcycle marathon in September and, on the 4-year anniversary of the day I was hit, I raced in the 50-year-old Cleves Time Trial. This race runs every Tuesday night, March through September...
