This is a mind blowing concept. I mean, it makes sense when I read: http://ecoscore.be/en/info/ecoscore/co2 But does this take into account catalytic converters or other emissions controls? Cats take the CO f

It's not that accidents happen often, it's that they will happen given enough time, and when they do happen you really want to be protected. Even quality thick selvedge denim jeans tear like wet tissue paper in under a second when

The durability isn't just a nice feature, but for motorcyclists is essential. I haven't found anything that comes close to the abrasion resistance that natural leather has (while looking like a leather jacket, not including things

I was going to make a similar post. I'd love a green alternative but so far I haven't found anything that performs or looks as good as genuine leather motorcycle jacket.

I think good modern DJing includes production in the mix. A lot of the best DJs I know also produce their own music. However, I don't think a DJ is un-important. I think of a DJ like a film-editor. Sure, the editor does not do any of t

Yep. I've found that my troubleshooting methodology and being able to break down complex systems is equally transferable in between software and mechanics. I think that systems and software people are the "modern" mechanics o

Agreed. My dream is a 13" with a quad-core CPU and TB3. With e-gpus progressing they way there are with TB3, my laptop is very close to replacing my desktop as well.

I was in your spot also. Had an x200/x201 hybrid running Arch. Dropped it on concrete from 6' in a server room one day sending it to the morgue. I was in the anti-apple camp until my work offered me a replacement of either a MBPr

I was also a Thinkpad user and switched to Mac for the primary reason of the 16:10 screens (with the resolution and color accuracy to boot). I loathe 16:9 in anything less than 27"

>the latest pixel phones >It’s getting tempting to jump ship. Well it looks like the new Pixel has much worse issues, so don't jump just yet. Phones in general, from all companies, are in a weird spot right now.

I remember reading that the Bluetooth spec has about 300ms of latency. Far too much for games, which is why no current console uses Bluetooth for their headsets.

If it counts for anything I'm a Canadian and I vehemently oppose any policy like this. The selection and knowledge of my dispensary in Vancouver in invaluable. They even take notes based on experiences of every strain I buy from them s

Last two companies I worked for used or was moving to GSuite. One was 650 person, the other 250. Not quite enterprise but not a small start-up either. Who the hell wants to deal with Exchange?

This article has resonated with me far more than I thought it would. I can't help but think that this is not just an Uber culture problem but a problem of culture in general. Hyper productivity is so in fashion and I don't think i

I'd rather give this a shot than just shut it down with the cynical negativity that we oft see on HN. There are obvious faults like you have pointed out, but we have to try something to get us out of the the situation we're in. Th

Same issue, but I got through and got a receipt for my sub and donation. Just keep trying. It seems to be up at this moment.

Yes it does here too, but for some reason in IT it doesn't matter. I don't know why this is, but there are many titles like Systems Engineer, Software Engineer, Database Engineer, Network Engineer, etc. These titles are not uncomm

Systems Engineer. Started as an SA, worked my way to SE, but being a Linux hobbyist is what taught me all my knowledge on Unix. Never went to University. What the guys on /r/unixporn do is pretty much what I'd do with my OS,

Never been to /r/unixporn but ricing my desktop and Linux os is what taught me Linux to the point of becoming an SA, then an SE. Amazing way to learn Linux.

Totally agree. After three months here I'm not looking forward to no longer having the wash feature when I get back to Canada. Such a nice feature to have.

I've been shooting street photography for almost two years now and I guarantee you that the fear all come from inside. In two years of shooting on the street I've never once had a bad encounter with a person I was photographing. H

I'm a street photographer and I loathe long lenses. Every time I see a photo with a telephoto I instantly recognize it. Telephotos give a very cold and distant emotional look to your photos. 85mm is fine in some cases, but 90% of the s

I agree with you. I haven't been this excited about a console since the N64, just knocking the 360 into third place for me. I haven't been excited about game consoles in a long long time. Why buy a console when you get a better ex

As a photographer and videographer I can't wait for the day I can switch to Linux fully. Until then it's OSX for me, but I'm patiently waiting. Now if only they'd offer 16:10 screens I'd almost immediately switch.

I'm legitimately interested in what things you have been unable to find. Back when I was still working as an SE there were a few minor things that I'd have to revert back to Google for but for 95% of my "professional Googling

I've been using DDG exclusively for almost two years now. I honestly forget that I'm using it most of the time. I can "Google" things and I always get what I'm after. It perfectly replaces Google 100% for me.

The Fuji issue has mostly been solved. I used to use Irident Developer for my RAFs but since switching to the X-T2 and the latest LR updates the old issues are gone. I've compared IR to LR a few times and there's no real differenc

I'm in Osaka right now and you'll find those around the temples at night. They kill my ears but I'm the only one in my group that can hear them. I think they're meant to scare cats away, but they work well for teenagers
