Abstract: A turbocharger can include a center housing; a compressor assembly operatively coupled to the center housing; and a turbine assembly operatively coupled to the center housing, where the center housing includes a bearing boss that includes a bore wall with opposing axial ends that define an axial through bore having opposing axial openings, an oil inlet, an oil outlet, an arcuate oil passage in fluid communication with the oil inlet, an oil passage in fluid communication with the arcuate oil passage and an opening in the bore wall, and an oil drainage passage in fluid communication with the opposing axial openings of the through bore and in fluid communication with the oil outlet.

Abstract: To manage dynamic adjustment of the refresh rate of a computer display, the operating system defines at least two playback modes: one or more custom modes that can be selected by applications, and a standard mode which is a default setting for the system that can be expected by applications. The operating system provides an application programming interface that enables an application to request using a custom mode. If approved to use the custom mode, then the application presents frames for display based on the custom mode. The operating system stores timing data for each buffered frame indicating how to play the frame in both standard mode and the custom mode. If a transition back to the standard mode occurs, the operating system uses the timing data to properly present frames of video until the application stops generating frames of video in the custom mode.

Abstract: A machine includes a memory and a processor. The processor performs steps that include receiving a path to a storage area associated with a programming environment, wherein the machine has been assigned to the programming environment. The processor uses the path to retrieve a list of the applications that define the programming environment, the list comprising an identifier for each application and a path to an executable form of each application. The processor compares the list of applications to applications currently stored in the memory of the machine and removes an application from the memory that is not in the list of applications.

Abstract: In some implementations, a system for providing and managing associations between mobile computing device and physical shopping carts used in retail stores includes a physical shopping cart configured to transport physical goods around a store. The physical shopping cart includes a product detection system that is programmed to detect products that are placed in the physical shopping cart, a wireless transceiver to wirelessly communicate with other devices, and a cart identifier that uniquely identifies the physical shopping cart. The system further includes a mobile computing device that is programmed (i) to obtain the cart identifier for the shopping cart, (ii) to establish an association with the physical shopping cart using the cart identifier, and (iii) once the association between the physical shopping cart and the mobile computing device has been established, to output a user interface that provides a real-time summary of the products in the physical shopping cart.

Abstract: An electric vehicle may comprise a board including deck portions each configured to receive a foot of a rider, and a wheel assembly disposed between the deck portions. A motor assembly may be mounted to the board and configured to propel the electric vehicle using the wheel assembly. At least one orientation sensor may be configured to measure orientation information of the board, and at least one pressure-sensing transducer may be configured to determine rider presence information. A motor controller may be configured to receive the orientation information and the rider presence information, and to cause the motor assembly to propel the electric vehicle based on the orientation and presence information.

Abstract: An electric vehicle may include a board having two deck portions each configured to receive a foot of a rider, and a wheel assembly disposed between the deck portions. A motor assembly may drive the wheel assembly in response to board orientation and rider presence information. A rider detection mechanism may include one or more strain gauges, and may be configured to detect rider presence and rider weight information. A responsiveness of the motor may be automatically adjusted based on the rider weight information.

Abstract: A turbocharger can include a housing that includes an interior cavity in fluid communication with a lubricant inlet and a lubricant outlet where, at a compressor side, the interior cavity includes an effective opening at a first axial face that spans an azimuthal angle about an axis of a through bore of the housing; a compressor side plate disposed at least in part in a compressor side recess of the housing; and a lubricant deflector plate disposed between the compressor side plate and the first axial face of the housing where the lubricant deflector plate includes an effective opening that substantially spans the azimuthal angle about the axis and where the lubricant deflector plate defines a seal cavity with respect to a compressor side seal recess of the housing.
