Yes. My Google-fu is not up to finding them but I happen to be familiar with this company's products and here is one. https://www.energy-xprt.com/products/purewave-ups-systems-55... One application of this kind of

tl;dr I made it to "Testing does not increase quality; programming and design do" and quit. It seems clear that the author has a strong opinion on this and perhaps that has been formed by exposure to unit tests done wrong. I suppo

If you have a Microcenter near you, they often have 'in store only' sales. Right now a Zero W (limit 1) is $5 and a 3B+ is $25. Right now they list the 4GB 4B due in on the 28th for $55. (All $ in US.)

The flip side of that is drivers who make a right turn on red w/out stopping - slowing down only enough to maintain control of their vehicle. Some also ignore the signs that stipulate no right turn on red when pedestrians are present,

The program is available (and installed by default) on the full Raspbian operating system for the Raspberry Pi. (Raspbian is the Debian Linux variant tailored for the Raspberry Pi.) I've never tried it. There is a Raspbian variant for

I was surprised more because I thought it was pretty well settled. I use it in my home LAN to access file shares. (Linux desktops and a Linux server.) Is would be used between 'nix servers and clients? Is it something that would be use

Delicate balance is the word I would have used. As a scoutmaster (BSA in the US) It seemed to me that many of our youth have no comprehension of their own mortality. I used to try to impress upon them the necessity to stay more than one mis

I've filed a few bug reports and I can't recall one that ever led to a fix. Most often they just sit there and get closed six months later for lack of activity. Some times they're fixed upstream. I found a bug in `dash` (Debi

Yes, I think they fixed the Killer problems on Ubuntu first and pushed their changes upstream. That may be why it works on Debian (It's only been a week.) I can dual boot Ubuntu but for reasons not immediately obvious to me DNS queries

Have you purchased a Lenovo lately? I've not had good luck with them. Despite 2 returns for service my Thinkpad T500 remained with a loose charging connector. My next Lenovo (notably not a Thinkpad) was a Y50 Ideapad. Audio to the spea

Not unlike a motorcycle either where at least the older ones had separate controls for front and rear brakes. Some newer bikes have linked brakes where applying front and/or rear partially actuates the other end as well.

Probably wouldn't want to be there today. ;) (Lots of rain, I think the tunnels are full.) A couple years ago we stopped by the Lincoln Oasis (rest stop consisting of a bridge over the interstate that carried restaurants and similar in

The picture "Metropolitan Area Outer Underground Discharge Channel" is startlingly similar to one of the scenes in the Mines of Moria (Lord of the Rings - Peter Jackson's movie.)

I'm unclear on how moving the engine up causes application of power to cause the attitude to tend to go nose up. I would expect the opposite to happen. I think something else must have changed such as the center line of the engine rela

This is done (or was done) every year at the Falling Leaf BMW Motorcycle rally in Potosi Missouri. It's pretty impressive to see how high the anvvil goes.

Define runner. I skimmed the article and didn't see it. Maybe I missed it. Some runners train for long distances - marathons or longer. At the opposite end of the spectrum are the sprinters who train for a short burst of maximum speed.

> This is the correct move. Airline crashes are so rare that two crashes of a new model within 6 months of each other must be cause for grounding flights. I agree. It seemed like the FAA was taking a position best described as "inno

Maybe I should try Fedora. The Killer WiFi continues to be a problem for me. (Debian Buster with 4.19 kernel and firmware downloaded from the Killer github account.) My uptime is 25 minutes right now because I had to reboot. I restored WiFi

Require that porn sites use only IPV6 addresses. Or provide some free benefit to people who access those sites using IPV6. I'm pretty sure adoption will surge. It worked for VHS.
