Your USB-C port might be running at USB 2.0 speeds — here’s how to check

Published by skeptic

USB-C is fast. Well, that’s not entirely true. USB-C is an oval-shaped connector that we associate with much faster transfer speeds and charging for our devices. But that’s all USB-C is: a standard that defines the connector shape we all love. It replaced a generation of slower, uglier ports, and we all collectively decided it meant things got better. Except sometimes it didn’t. Sometimes your USB-C port is running at USB 2.0 speeds, and it never really lets you know unless you spend time figuring out the problem. Related How USB-C reversibility actually works Reversible doesn’t mean identical.

Ukraine Urges Israel To Act Against Russian Ship Carrying ‘Stolen’ Grain To Haifa Port

Ukraine Urges Israel To Act Against Russian Ship Carrying ‘Stolen’ Grain To Haifa Port

Published by Jenni Sidey

Ukraine is pushing Israel to seize a grain shipment it says was looted from Russian-occupied territory as the war persists in the east. At the moment it does not appear that Israel complied with any interdict of the vessel, also as reports say the cargo is already offloaded and gone. via MarineTraffic Ukraine’s government flagged the Russian vessel ABINSK, docking at Haifa, as part of Moscow’s so-called shadow fleet, alleging that it is tied to operations used to “illegally export, transport, and sell stolen Ukrainian grain” and bankroll Moscow’s war effort. The saga has been featured in Ukrainian media, which says that despite a formal government-to-government request, Israeli authorities didn’t stop the shipment. Some 43,765 tonnes of wheat – loaded at Russia’s Kavkaz port and believed to originate from Ukrainian regions controlled by the Russian military – was allowed to be unloaded. Ukraine is still expressing hope for “fruitful and constructive interaction” between both sides, with its embassy in contact with Israeli officials, but Tel Aviv does not appear to be as eager to intervene. …

During the first 24 hours of the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports, American warships issued warnings to six vessels, prompting them to turn around, a U.S. official said Tuesday. Subscribe to read this story ad-free Get unlimited access to ad-free articles and exclusive content. No shots were fired in the encounters, the official said, and U.S. personnel did not board any of the vessels before they reversed course. Five of the ships were carrying oil, according to the official. The contents of the sixth vessel were not immediately clear. Two of the oil-carrying ships turned back in the first two hours after the blockade went into effect Monday morning. President Donald Trump announced the blockade Sunday after negotiations with the Iranians failed to produce an agreement to end the war. Since fighting began in late Friday, traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has been at a near-standstill, sparking a rise in the prices of oil and other key goods. The U.S. military is using more than 100 U.S. fighter and surveillance aircraft to enforce the …

If you spot this port on a cheap used laptop, grab it before someone else does

One man’s trash really is another man’s treasure, and that feels more true now than it used to. Ever since I bought a used router and installed OpenWRT on it, I’ve been mesmerized by the used tech market. Open-source software has come a long way. So has self-hosting. There are more options than ever, which means buying old hardware is no longer just about settling for less. Sometimes it’s about spotting something cheap, wiping the software, installing your own stack, and turning it into exactly what you need. Thanks to the advances of software, there are so many ways to put old hardware to use. Old tablets and phones still have lots of uses. Old laptops definitely still have uses. Maybe not as “laptops” that you carry around to work on the go. I wanted something to use as a home server, a machine to run Jellyfin on, host SearXNG, maybe Immich, that sort of thing. I landed on a used Dell Latitude for about $180. It has an Intel Core i5-1245U, 8GB of RAM, …

Chelsea seek to turn corner after 7-0 FA Cup thrashing of Port Vale

Chelsea seek to turn corner after 7-0 FA Cup thrashing of Port Vale

Published by Sam Flores

LONDON, April 4 : Chelsea are hoping that Saturday’s 7-0 thrashing of lowly Port Vale in an FA Cup quarter-final draws a line under a dismal run of form and internal upheaval that has threatened to ruin the season of the big-spending Londoners.  The build-up to the tie had been dominated by Chelsea coach Liam Rosenior’s announcement on Friday that club vice captain and record signing Enzo Fernandez would be suspended for two games after suggesting he might leave. Chelsea have been enveloped in a sense of crisis since their 8-2 aggregate drubbing in the Champions League by European champions Paris St Germain and domestic league defeats to Newcastle United and Everton over a fraught 10 days in March. So Saturday’s goal bonanza – albeit against a struggling Port Vale side who look certain to be relegated to the fourth tier of English football soon – at least managed to restore some smiles to the faces of Chelsea’s players and fans. “When you go through a difficult moment that we did in that 10-day period, …

Port of LA turns to electric terminal trucks to to slash dwell times

Port of LA turns to electric terminal trucks to to slash dwell times

Published by skeptic

APM Terminals has been electrifying its operations at the Port of Los Angeles over the last few years – and they’ve been able to effectively decarbonize and cut their fuel costs substantially. Those efforts have yielded another unexpected benefit, too: they’ve slashed truck idle times at the port by almost 85%. With short runs at low speeds under heavy loads in a controlled space, heavy-duty terminal tractors represent an almost ideal use case for electrification. APM Terminals Pier 400 did that math and came to the same conclusion, adding twenty new Orange EV yard dogs to their fleet at the Port of Los Angeles. Along with other decarbonization and efficiency investments, that purchase has helped the company reduce truck dwell times from an average 90 minutes to just 35. The pier has found big wins by making the whole truck-and-cargo flow less “wait your turn,” and more “keep it moving” with the addition of green lanes for ZEVs, tighter gate operations, and by pairing electrified equipment and its superior uptime with new, better rail and yard …
