I Spent Weeks Using Orb: It's Unlike Any Internet Speed Test I've Ever Used Before

Internet speed tests aren't just for people who obsess over their internet connection. If you're having an inevitable home internet slowdown, my first recommendation is always to start with a speed test. In fact, I’ve tested and used dozens of internet speed tests -- the market is pretty saturated with them. Ideally, the best internet speed test is one that diagnoses your bandwidth blues as easily as possible -- no ads, no extra features you can’t make sense of and no slowing down your Wi-Fi. S

BMW ConnectedDrive lets me control my returned rental car (Sixt)

Last week I rented a BMW from Sixt (Italy). The default rental driver profile had Bluetooth disabled, so I created my own BMW ID, paired it with the car, removed the existing profile, and even triggered software updates. When returning the car, I told the Sixt representative that I had linked my BMW ID — they assured me that the vehicle would be reset. Today — just before deleting the “My BMW” app — I checked out of curiosity. Surprise: I still had full remote access: - live location tracki

How much power can a PCIe x16 graphics card draw from the motherboard alone?

Choose wisely! The correct answer, the explanation, and an intriguing story await. Correct Answer: 75W What was Comdex before it was shut down in the early 2000s? When installed in a motherboard's PCIe x16 slot, a graphics card such as the GeForce RTX 5080 can draw up to 75 watts of power directly from the slot. This power comes from the motherboard's +3.3V and +12V rails (3.3V × 3A + 12V × 5.5A), which is the maximum defined by the PCI Express base specification for a x16 slot (this limit ha
