I can feel the pinches just looking at it.

I believe this mode of communication was actually standardized.

They do kind of oscillate, just very very quickly.

I’m not sure if you’re being sarcastic but this is not true. Electromagnetic waves travel fastest in a vacuum, so the presence of air would slow it down very slightly and I would expect higher air pressure would slow it down further again only incredibly slightly because the electromagnetic waves would be traveling through a medium less efficient and more different than a vacuum.

Of course I’m making an assumption that you were using wireless signals. For all I know, you could have some weird acoustic link in which case you’d be absolutely right.

I’ve never heard of this speaking as an American. I’ve always seen temporary plates used.

Interesting! I haven’t thought about that time period as another transfer of knowledge.

Because of the diminishing returns in using larger and larger models, I’m hopeful that this could lead to more efficient LLM implementations that aren’t so harmful to the environment. Just maybe.

One of the biggest transfers of wealth of our time is the export of technology overseas to places that don’t care about IP.

With that said, I’m more concerned about the upward transfer of wealth than IP these days, but nevertheless it’s remarkable.

Oof, apartment dweller, right in the WiFi 6.

It doesn’t even manage to block access to porn. For god’s sakes you’d have to block the entire Internet.

I probably shouldn’t say that or they’ll get ideas. It’s all performative.

But it’s literally the penis-shaped state!

It’s good to be a VPN service these days. I bet business is up.

I love that moment where they finally take a moment to relax and seem to understand that this is their life now.

Daily iPhone user. Haven’t really noticed any difference. They really pushed how tightly integrated the experience would be, but honestly, I don’t really notice.

Maybe they integrated it so well that it looks exactly the same as what they started with.

I can’t afford Apple Wisdom.

I would expect it to show up as some kind of USB device on Linux, but alas. I’m starting to think she might be dead because I found a few cases like yours in the HP support forums where they concluded there must be hardware problem.

There might be a way to restore firmware from here:

But aside from that, I think I’m out of further ideas.

One online source suggests holding power and vol up will get off that logo screen. I’m not sure though.

Interesting. Do you have it plugged into something that might be putting it in some kind of file transfer mode? I think this logo is different from the usual vendor logo. I also wonder if maybe this is your recovery mode and it doesn’t offer a GUI. This doesn’t seem to match screenshots that I can find online regarding the recovery mode of this tablet.

We could also try to talk to it over USB via fastboot, but that might be hairy and may still not lead anywhere.

Thanks for the info. It looks like user might have a shot at recovering the device but I don’t see how they’d get data recovery from this position.
