240W for 3.1, but it’s pretty rarely implemented and there’s no way a car’s built in USB port is going over 15W.
240W is also 20A in a 12V car which is definitely going to blow a fuse.

Honestly I’m intrigued. I don’t love the individual plastic wrapping, but it does seem like a good way to get ketchup all the way on the edges without worrying about spilling it everywhere
- Comment on Italy’s top court rules against tourist refused tap water in Dolomites hotel 4 days ago:
It’s considered a breach of etiquette to not want to be forced to pay for water? A lawsuit over being refused tap water at a restaurant in a non-emergency scenario seems a little silly, but refusing tap water also seems a little silly unless it isn’t potable.

Sawdust has a lot more in it than just cellulose. The meme is a joke, but it’s closer to reality than calling cellulose powder derived from wood pulp “sawdust”.

Windows does it to apps and files from people I trust or to ones I’ve created myself. I’ve even caught it basing detection on fuzzy string matching and nothing else (Bifrost vs Bifrose in the app name and that’s it).
- Comment on It's already running 1 month ago:
The macOS Gatekeeper quarantine is stupid, and Windows loves detecting random files as malware and deleting them while you’re using them and not restoring them even after you tell it to allow the “threat”.

- Comment on Funny how android used to be what we now call FOSS 1 month ago:
Ubuntu, Mint, and Debian all still rely on the Linux kernel, though. A better comparison might be how LineageOS is technically a fork of the dead CyanogenMod project, but even before the latter fully imploded was different enough to be its own thing.
Both of them still relied on the existence of AOSP though, for new features, bug fixes, hardware support, certain core functionality, etc. AOSP is a lot bigger than just the Linux kernel, and because of the tighter coupling between hardware and software on mobile devices, there’s a whole other discussion about creating a real non-Android OS for them, but I think that’s a closer parallel.

Only on that platform. The Android™ platform is way more popular than AOSP, but that doesn’t mean Android™ precludes AOSP.
For the purposes of making a custom Android-based OS like GrapheneOS, AOSP is better than ever. Whether or not there are actually devices to install GrapheneOS on kind of isn’t the point here in my mind since we’re talking about which one someone prefers, which means they’re already able to use both.
And as GrapheneOS’ existence demonstrates, it’s still pretty easy and even increasingly mainstream now to change your device’s firmware. GrapheneOS currently is only built for Pixel devices, made by Google, the company that also develops AOSP and owns the Android brand. In theory Lenovo is going to have a Motorola branded device running GrapheneOS officially in the near future, but Lenovo doesn’t have a great track record with mobile software support.
Android™ itself might be getting more locked down and centered around Google’s services, but it’s still an option to move to something else based on AOSP, and thanks to things like Project Treble (which is enforced by Google Play’s compatibility tests), you might not even need device-specific firmware to have a usable and pleasant non-proprietary experience.
The situation with Android is weird, because Google technically owns all of it, but it’s completely different departments going completely different directions, and it doesn’t help that we all call the entire concept Android when that’s technically the brand for Google’s special certified versions of AOSP (which also includes the word Android but not as a brand…).
- Comment on Funny how android used to be what we now call FOSS 1 month ago:
The source code is still fully available (and even searchable with code references) which is why all of these community and FOSS forks are still possible.
Google is absolutely abusing their influence over the Android brand to continually lock down consumer devices and the versions of Android that ship on them, but AOSP has only gotten more open-source friendly over time if anything. The problem is there are fewer and fewer devices that will actually let you leave branded Android™ for some version of AOSP.
