For the sponsored returns to the search query, sure. But for the rest, isn't that the fuzzy search crapping the bed in the face of our expectations? When I specify what I want I want the search to return what I searched for, not a lot

Its easier and cheaper (and a lil safer) to run wires to the up\down control lever and have those actuate a valve somewhere, than it is to run hydraulic hoses to a lever like in lifts of old, for example. That said it could also be run by w

Mustangs have a reputation as being 'crowd (or streetlight) seeking' missiles. This is due to their price making them relatively more available to the enthusiasts than say Hellcats, enthusiasts who may not be experienced enough to

Last year the executives beat everyone to the punch: hard limit of two drinks max from the bar, and you couldn't bring anything in. Party: pooped.

There was a great article here a few months ago on this very subject, detailing getting Halo 2 to run in true HD, properly using the extra RAM of the devkit, and the engine hacks required to do so (since it basically statically allocated a

Not at all, I was imagining over speccing the system. E.g. this weekend I went to a show at a 70,000 seat arena. Knowing from experience, there are 4 entrances. This time there were 10 people scanning tickets at the gates I entered. Friends

5 RPS, per scanner, surely?

Yeah, that's valid.

I'm currently in a pickle in this regard, as my new house has solar on Net Metering, but no ATS or battery. While its nice to only pay the base connection fee, I still go dark when the line power does. I'd love to add at the very

It is kind of neat to watch the frost ring descend from the top of the chest freezer lower and lower along the walls. It is pretty easy to scrape off, too.

Yeah that was my take on it as well.

Not to mention that wooden piles were often treated with an absolutely massive amount of creosote, to the point that a number of timber pile treatment yards are superfund sites.

If we truly insist on shoving AI into my fridge, I just want it to learn my eating habits and monitor the stock levels, pushing an updated grocery list to my phone's notes app that I can pull up at any time and see "expected to ru

I, for one, miss customized installers. We've kind of lost out on those what with the move to digital distribution. Gone are the days of my friend accidentally having his volume cranked when he inserted the Red Alert 2 disc, not knowin

I drink 4-5 cups a day, although I always stop by noon. No problems sleeping, and stress seems average for the job lol

So we're set on expending resources. If we're going to spend the resources to incarcerate these folks, would not the resources be better spent (with much better potential RoI, no less) on assisting persons in obtaining living situ

And, per the article, New Zealand's one operational Herc (or operational and available for this mission?) with the Australian air force on standby just in case. Wow

Something like you describe really does sound like an ideal terminal stage defense system, with 20 or 35mm autocannon covering longer ranges. Purely theory crafting, I think the final piece would be small, standalone AESA radar units perhap

A larger round also has more body material to fragment upon explosion, if indeed they are proximity airburst rounds. Which ideally means a higher PK as well as longer ranger.

Watching them again recently, I was struck by how well the set and prop design of Alien and Aliens sold the idea of an industrial sci fi future. Something about all those chunky CRT or VFD screens fiercely glowing feels, to me, much bet

Pharma was eye-opening (and, personally, infuriating) regarding problems with the FDA, drug approvals, individual inspectors, the industry-to-regulator (or vice versa) revolving door, and so on. You're not wrong that there are proble
