i want Micro USB 3.0 support on smartphones, so they can use more voltage and standardize it rather than needing specific wall warts to draw enough energy to charge the battery
the right part is a standard Micro USB B (pre-3.0)
You can plug a 2.0 cable in there.
A 3.0 port and cable has the extra data lines, as seen on the left (with a GND in the middle).
Also, phones don't need nearly that much bandwidth...
The USB A 3.0 (host) connector has its data lines recessed, so it should work on standard USB 2.0 ports. Thing is, those lines often short on poorly designed ports, so it's usually more reliable to just grab a 2.0 cable to connect to a 3.0 port...
BRB, updating Firefox (hopefully so mem usage drops below 2GB)
@JourneymanGeek Huh? All I saw was 900 mA (6 x 150 mA)
Oh.
> The Battery Charging Specification 1.2 of 2010 makes clear, that there are safety limits to the rated current at 5 A coming from USB 2.0. On the other hand several changes are made and limits are increasing including allowing 1.5 A on charging ports for unconfigured devices, allowing high speed communication while having a current up to 1.5 A and allowing a maximum current of 5 A.
I just downloaded Fling from them (an automatic ftp uploader) having been looking for a good app to do this for a long time. It just seems to good to be true to finally stumble across what looks to be a good piece of software.

seriously? there's "ways around" anything you can dream up
even if you owned the entire Pentagon by yourself and put your laptop in a secure safe in a top secret SCIF and nobody in the world knew of its existence and it was disconnected from the internet and the installation could survive 81 nuclear strikes by the Tsar Bomba, there would still be ways around gaining access to it
someone could drill through the earth from Russia and break through the floor and break the safe using an ADNR diamond saw and then proceed to brute force every password and encryption key until they had access to the data on the hard drive.... which would be something like "42"
a much more interesting challenge is designing your digital life so that even if someone did gain physical access to your PC, that nothing valuable would be on it in the first place
I have nothing important... the best security is to have nothing worth taking unless it's out of pure malice
but most things that we think we need security for are things we place value on that someone would want to obtain for themselves due to some perceived advantage, not just because they want to be harmful to you for harm's own sake
take away those things or make them irrelevant and you don't have to spend your life worrying about building barriers between you and a hostile unknown
@Sathya What was your SSD failing experience? My expectation would be that you would get slow degradation rather than "failing" - unless the controller broke or something
It isn't like you get shrapnel like you do a hard disk :)
@Sathya Ok cool. I might tell my machine to rsync the ssd contents to my hd. This is one of the Intel 330s, but I guess with SSDs we don't yet know the range of warning signs. At least with hds you might get an increase in bad sectors prior to a failure, and all the SMART stuff (unless it just fails catastrophically).
@Paul yeah that's a good idea. Even with telltale warnings of a failing drive - low speeds, BSODs (Windows kept complaining about drive getting "disconnected" during data transfer) nearly all SSD toolbox programs insisted on mentioning the drive was A-ok. That might boil down to firmware not being up-to-the-mark though
@Sathya Are you running Windows on that laptop? I expect Windows (or OSes in generally really) are not too concerned with writing to the disk frequently.
@Boris_yo Nope, it is that exact drive. I have my main linux install on there, a Windows partition where I install stuff that I want to be quick, and a readyboost cache partition
My main Windows is still on HD because it was too much hassle to move it without reinstalling
@Boris_yo I moved the partition on to the new drive, booted it, and it didn't work. BSOD or something. So I gave up, and given the small size of the disk, I decided Windows itself would be a waste. I work in linux and play in Windows, so it was more important to have games fast than Windows itself. So a partition for whatever games I am into at the time, and readyboost to help Windows in general
@Paul I am worried because usually it should work and I am trying to do same in my situation without reinstalling Windows 7 again since returning everything to current condition will take more than 1 day. Migration is of crucial importance and what good is that there is no need to align partitions.
@Boris_yo Yeah, well perhaps the migration tool will work - like I said, I didn't try very hard. With linux it is so easy to move stuff around, as soon as it didn't work for Windows I became absolutely certain it wasn't worth my time to investigate.
@Paul But if you use Windows 7 to play video games then it must reside on same partition as games for best speed. Otherwise you lose on slow swap file access.
there is A machine which IP is 192.168.1.97 not able to ping by B machine in the network and A machine is able to ping other System IP like 192.168.1.96 ,192.168.1.95 and so on
A machine IP is which is 192.168.1.97 is in the network and pinging by company server also and 192.168.1.97 is static IP not dynamic IP
To check, just disable "Intrusion Prevention" and "Smart Firewall" on the destination machine for now, and try pinging again. If it works, we can add an exception.
sir i did the same as you say "o check, just disable "Intrusion Prevention" and "Smart Firewall" on the destination machine for now, and try pinging again"

@Bob How much do you charge for SU chat support and problem solving ;) ? What are your accepted methods of payment? What credit cards do you accept? Do you accept PayPal? What is your refund policy?
The sole privacy and humanity control thing scares me about using Android based devices. Something tells me Apple doesn't have vicious plans and won't do bad things to its customers.
