I have the same car, it does this too. As have most if not all of my other cars I've owned. I've always put it down to the fact there is no cooling from the forward motion of the car passing air towards the radiators so the engine slowly heats from the already generated heat from driving. The temperature hits the limit the sensor has set and the fan turns on until it's below that set temperature.
Armando Iannuccis back catalogue is so vast. He's done so so much stuff over the last 30 odd years and so much of it is top tier. Yet few people would recognise the name. He's talented on so many levels. If anyone hasn't I'd highly recommend the 'Armando Iannucci Shows'.
Its been a feature since at least the S9. Source: Had to 'fix' my girlfriend's phone only charging to 85%. Was a mystery how that setting got randomly enabled, really.
I can't recall for certain if my old S7 had that option but I don't think it did.
I didn't say I agreed. I'm just telling you why it didn't happen.
FWIW the UK and Canada (and maybe other Commonwealth countries) have had successful examples of public-owned companies. The US has no such tradition and is, therefore, culturally resistant to the idea.
Worked with someone who had a 7650. Watching what that could do blew me away at the time. First phone I saw that genuinely acted like a PC in your pocket. Bought a 6600 as soon as it was released and loved it.
You could probably make an interesting article on how much a modern smartphone in 2021 differs from the 7650. Fundamentally I don't think it's as much as many would think.
I used to be a pretty hardcore PvPer when I was young then got tired of griefing, being griefed, fixing and getting better gear, spending hours to craft stuff that would be gone in minutes.
Basically, wasting a ton of time.
That may be fine when you're in school, but not when you have a job and a life.
EVE was an outlier probably because they could afford to be with what looked like zero competition in their heyday. Now they sold the game to Pearl Abyss, must have been doing pretty poorly.
How much later? The experience I described was about 2000-2001, and it was far from seconds.
To be fair, encoding to MP3 wasn't exactly speedy on the machines at the time (compared to the present day), but converting to ATRAC was significantly slower.
I had one of the later models that had LP features, so up to 4x the music on a disc at a lower quality. It was also a recorder, which was so handy, and something no iPod ever offered. Many of my friends had players, 1 even had an in car player. That's in the UK. I think the big issue was that many people assumed Minidisc was supposed to be a replacement for CDs, rather, than a replacement for cassette. It's understandable why it wasn't marketed this way, but if it had, I think it would of taken off much quicker in the mid/late 90's.
Thinking about it maybe I do remember some marketing about it being a cassette replacement. A quick Google brought up this, which is assume is a Sony advert.
