This is an mSATA SSD.
To install a drive like this on a system without an mSATA slot, you'll need an mSATA to SATA 2.5" adapter. This StarTech unit was the best I could find from a cursory search on Google.
Do not confuse this with the M.2 form factor, which is narrower and (usually) longer. M....
In my media cabinet I have a HDMI matrix that does IR output over a 3.5mm jack to an emitter. In the same cabinet I have multiple PC's with IR to USB HID receivers to translate to keypresses.
This seems like an necessary step going to and from IR in the middle, I'm curious if there exists a devi...
@NickAlexeev "does X exist" questions are marginally better than blurry pictures and "plz what is this connector"; I personally wouldn't mind it, though I don't have an answer
the entire situation with "multiple computers" acting as remote control receivers of some sort (?) sounds like a WTF infrastructure setup though
@NickAlexeev solar or wind energy source + 18650 cell charger should last a while; anything involving batteries is going to be pretty short-lived post-apocalypse though because we assume manufacturing facilities for these things will no longer be in operation
depends on the severity of the apocalypse and your ability to get to areas with degrees of civilization/organization, I guess
but I mean, a fresh 18650 cell will last several years with moderate duty cycle as in a flashlight
as long as you don't drain it dead every time between charges
most advanced manmade artifacts would be worthless within 5-10 years, absent the ability to manufacture new, functioning devices from raw materials -- and that includes the vast majority of non-food items produced today, since nearly everything has integrated circuits in it
hardened ICs could last 20 years, maybe 30, but physical damage / humidity will eventually kill most things...
even things we think of as super long lived electronics based components, like aircraft carriers, fighters, satellites, etc. -- in most cases -- have either unusually high-grade components and multiple backup systems, or -- more likely -- they simply get worked on and gradually repaired by human beings putting new stuff in them over time :P
Anyway, that's just semantics; we could debate all day the degree to which someone could be prepared with extremely high-grade, super-sealed, super-resilient technology at their fingertips, ready at a moment's notice for an apocalyptic event with 30-50 years of flawlessly humming along modern technology powered by solar; but I don't have that and I don't think bwDraco does either
99.99999...(several more?)% of stuff produced today with ICs will be dead in a decade
talking about electronics and stuff involving electronics in general
consumer dreck
if you live next to an 18650 cell factory, you'll want to have an 18650 flashlight :P
Many years ago, I had bought and stored around 400 BTC, for a few hundred dollars(?). Shortly after that, I lost this hard drive, wrote it off as an "Oh well" and didn't think anything more of it.
Last week I found it.
And according to google, it's worth around $1,000,000 USD.
I would like th...
I have a Windows Server 2008 with an Active Directory on it. In the Active Directory and Users console I want to add a custom column for an attribute so I can show when my users last logged in. I found the attribute in the attribute editor and it's called "lastLogon". I wen to a step by step process to add it to the configuration settings under CN=Default.Display "extraColumns". But it won't show up for me to add to my view in the Active directory and Users console
I also tried setting the setting in the "organizationalUnit-Display" -> "extraColumns" instead
