If it had a clear definition, we wouldn't need a name like shitposting for it.

Leave the grid out of it. Your PV's charge your battery with DC, that gets used as DC by the USB-PD outlets in your wall. And you have an AC-DC converter for when you need to consume grid power.

TIL Circuit City created a proprietary disposable type of DVD called a DIVX that was viewable for only 48 hours after initial viewing unless an additional fee was paid. Which led to bankruptcy in c/[email protected]

I knew there'd been some kind of thing with the same name as the open source(ish?) DivX video codec, but not living in the USA I never found out what exactly it was.

The Wad - Vels Trio

Genre wise it's on the spectrum between jazz and prog-rock. And somehow manages to sound like a cross between New Order's Blue Monday and Parliament's Flashlight.

Navigation without mashing CPU? (lemmy.world)
 

When I'm driving with the phone is a dashboard mount, everything else on the phone is super slow and laggy. To the point where if something doesn't work via voice control, I'm afraid to do it manually like when stopped at a red light, in case I can't switch back to navigation before I need to make a turn. Google Maps on OnePlus 9 w sd888.

Is there in existence yet a phone that's fast enough for task switching while navigating? Is it just Google maps being a resource hog? Is there a better app?
