Drop in current wouldnt tell you anyway. Yes it varies, but you wouldnt be able to tell the difference between two leds farther away and one led closer in.

If you specifically want to detect it through the main coil you cant do it without changing the design as far as I can think of.

The simplest solution would be to make the individual devices resonant with the main coil but resonant at different frequences. That would give you something uniquely identifiable to potentially key in on.

It is exactly the same thing we have when we charge a phone wireless. It is also how transformers work, and NFC chips get power (like your credit card).

It only works at very short distances or at very low power.

@bonifartius I alredy did one update without an account. So you can definately update without issue. That said it is android 12 so updates will come around, even if they are optional.

This brand has all your usual android apps including a browser and the ability to use anything in android (including access to samba)

I have no specific use for color. Just that i often read technical documents and charts are often in color. so it serves a functional purpose to be able to see the colors and properly read charts in books. Math and other stuff its not so critical i guess and just nice.

If I use it for note taking, which i may not, it has the advantage of being able to draw in multiple colors if I care.

@trinsec Much better, thank you!

@futurebird

Since this is the case, as you state (and more or less I agree it is correcT)... I dont understand your question. Do you not already know the answer to how many? You count the ones that give off light.... I feel like im misunderstanding the question?

Keep in ind COVID peaks every year right at this time, it is a seasonal disease with significant peaks in winter.

More work would have to be done to compare this peak to past peeks, but this is likely a perfectly normally cyclic pattern that is expected.

@jtb

That is certainly true, people have killed eachother for plenty of reasons and the Abrahamic religions, or religions more generally, do not have a monopoly on that idea.

@futurebird

No you could in fact use a LED as an element in your rectivfier and then place the current limiting resistor across it.

The issue with that is the diode would only be lit up half the cycle and the energy wasted on the other half of the cycle. The result would be the LED would be half bright and half energy wasted as heat.

That said it would work and the led would be smooth as the frequency is likely high enough not to be evident directly.

@th @StephanMatthiesen

Oh shit Karl Urban was in a Xena episode... wasnt expecting this.

@bonifartius Onyx/BOOX does have an account built in for their device, but you dont need it. In fact that make it intentionally so you dont need it (offering local LAN options that circumvent needing an account for much of the functionality).

So if that is your concern then any of the BOOX/onyx products will do nicely, and they have cheaper options (this was this most expensive product).

Also keep in mind color isnt worth the price for most people when you consider e-ink color isnt particularly vibrant. You get noticable but muted colors.

But if you want the colors it is the best you can get on the market in terms of color e-ink, in fact its the only color e-ink that is production ready and in tables (other brands have color e-nk but they use the same tech with muted colors).

@istvan@noagendasocial.com yea as someone with a large gemstone collection there are a lot of scams out there, and some are quite obvious.

@bonifartius I went with the Tab Ultra C Pro by BOOX / Onyx. It is one of only a few color e-ink tablets to choose from, particularly when you want a full android 12 option.

@eelco ahhh ok that makes more sense, thanks :)

Why are people always sick and tired, but you never hear people who are tired and sick.

@eelco ok my dutch is pretty rusty.. but did you just say "small of the big"?

@avlcharlie we have a naked bikeride in philly once a year.. mostly younger folk so its worth the view if your ok with some penises too :)
