    LarsReviews got a reaction from da na in Experiences with non-techies   
    Teachers + Smartboard. Why don't they get it to press the "switch source" button. Afterwards comes, "why isn't there any sound." Well VGA does not carry sound, you have to use the USB cable.
     
    My Art Teacher: We need jpeg pictures. You can't use your phone, it will save it as a pdf. 
     
    And then there is my mom: With the graphics card you can now play with your friends in the USA. No, that is called the internet. But for my mom the Internet is Google. And to use Google/internet she closes every single window and tap.
     
    Another great Tech guy: With SLI you don't need your cpu anymore to run Windows. WTF!!!
     
    My Grandma thinks she need a Full HD receiver for her CRT. I told her it is only 576p, several times.

    Ich kann Mindfactory.de auch empfehlen. 
     
    Hab da nahezu meinen kompletten PC bestellt, als ich ihn gekauft habe. Nur die SSD gabs von Amazon wegen Aktionspreis und die Cablemod Kabel von Caseking, weil sie die nicht im Programm hatten. 
     
     
     
    gestern Abend ist auch noch ein Paket von Mindfactory angekommen

    LarsReviews reacted to GoodBytes in Apple blocks Spotify updates as it compete against Apple music streaming service   
    Spotify is claiming that Apple is blocking them from updating their software on the iOS platform, because their service now does competition to Apple's music streaming service.
    The reason for this Apple says, is that subscription services needs to go through Apple store, so that the company get a cut (30%).
    Apple has introduced a lower cut fee of 15% instead of 30%, but only applies to yearly subscriptions in which the user doesn't cancel in between, else the company charges a 30% fee on the app developer/service provider.
     
    This has already lead Spotify to charge more for Apple users if they subscribe via the iOS platform instead of the web. Resulting in $13 US per month instead of paying the usual $10 US per month. Despite offering this Apple Store option, Apple forbids external links or any other way to by-pass the store.
     
    Source: http://appleinsider.com/articles/16/06/30/spotify-says-apple-rejected-app-update-over-app-store-policies-causing-grave-harm-to-service
     
    This is a very tricky situation. Apple wants a cut of the service, but Spotify is now less competitive over Apple streaming service due to the increase service cost which the company can't absorb.
    While it would normally start making app developer flee the platform, Apple stronghold prevents this.
     
    What do you think? Is Apple in the right? Or Spotify?

    Quadcopter Marke Eigenbau:
    -Versacopter V2.0 H-Frame
    -4x Emax MT2204 2300kv Motoren
    -4x Emax 12A ESCs
    -Naze32 10DOF FC
    -Taranis X9D+

    Gestern ist das Paket mit dem Frame gekommen, also wurde auch fleißig losgebaut:
    -

    Danach Setup via Cleanflight am PC, das erspar ich euch lieber.

    Heute mittag mal versucht, das ganze im Garten fliegen zu lassen, leider in meiner Vorfreude die Propellermuttern nicht fest genug gezogen und daraufhin eine mit Linksgewinde verloren, welche ich selbst nach 1-stündiger Suche nicht mehr fand. Zur Strafe (irgendwie auch berechtigt, hätte ja sonstwas passieren können) darf ich jetzt eine Woche auf linksdrehende M5 Muttern warten.

    Was steht noch an:
    -Auf die Muttern warten
    -Den ersten richtigen Flug absolvieren
    -FPV in fernerer Zukunft

    I actually thought about getting this case but then I realized it didn't fit my cooler or my PSU.
     
    This one from Silverstone seems like a really nice unit http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=593 but it wasn't out yet and my wallet would probably cry at the thought of buying it. I ended up with an RVZ01 on a sale for half the price and I stuffed a SilentPro M600 into it.
