Yeah, I do @musllibc, FOSS & infosec stuff. But now is not the time for a mostly-/only-tech Twitter feed.

      This is unrelated to the chips and has more to do with bad design (the biggest factor in GPS). Computing power needed is trivial as well.

      Now I'm curious how cheap GPS receivers work, since I'm only (somewhat) familiar with the workings of high-precision stuff.

      Especially simple for devices that won't be moving about a lot (like a plug charger) that compensate immediate inaccuracy over hours.

      A tracking device that only works when someone leaves it plugged in several hours seems like it would have limited usefulness...

      One of the safer assumptions on a USB charger is that it'll be connected for a while when used. Necessary since it'll be indoors anyway.

      I don't think so. Lots of ppl just charge enough to use, & newish phones charge FAST (~30min for 15% to 90%).

      Yet, as you know, the vast majority plug more than half and hour most of the time. Again, not sure what you're arguing here any more. Sorry.

      I'm not either. I started off skeptical that they did anything at all, then curious about how cheap receivers are implemented...

      I'll believe you that they exist, but I'm still skeptical that the devices perform acceptably for what people would buy them for.

      9 bucks. Buy one. Test it yourself. Report back.

      I work with ones much more expensive than that.

          So do I, but that's also irrelevant because these are the ones we're talking about and the ones you're skeptical about.

          And the ones I don't understand well.
