That's very cool, he's basically test equipment royalty. But he's the son of one of the founders - Rhode & Schwarz was founded in the 1930's.

Surely mass is a red herring in all this. The masses involved must be waaaaaay too small to detect, especially in the presence of earth's gravity. Why would a slime mold even evolve this capability of detecting tiny mass differences? N

I responded to a get-rich magazine ad too, in the 80's. A book arrived from overseas called 'Practical Guide to Direct Marketing', by J.C. Frost, all about how to make money from ads in magazines.

I find it much easier to use than bookmarks. It's a great for research, when you have disparate bits of information spread out over dozens of sources. I close tabs as they become irrelevant. A window may have a lifetime of a few days t

1404 tabs open here. Tab bar is indeed messy, I use Tree Style Tab in the side bar. And dozens of categorized windows, each with a name. I don't need an alternative or better way. It works great and I hope this use case remains support

Thank you very much! That helps a lot actually. PurePortugal is mainly what I've been looking at. Good luck with the ISP, also very interesting.

The picture is rather deceptive, making the drone look huge compared to the men standing behind it. When you play the video you'll see it's not that big.

Observing non-red rubber bands doesn't make a person more likely to have a link to a Wikipedia-accepted source article about it, right? So the person suggesting a Wikipedia edit may just as well Google it themselves.

Seems like a very poor effort for the price? 'Range extender' is not the right term when the internal combustion engine is obviously going to do most of the work. It's not a vehicle for short trips within the city. This belon
