There is a market considering it's already being done, but people pay more for the originals so it's not as lucrative as you might think. There's also projects like the commander x16, which I think are awesome

Occasional connections invalidate the air gap since applications can spool data to be sent once the internet connection is back. Especially on windows 10 where the user has very little control or knowledge about what updates are doing. You

There's also the charm of programming graphics and sound chips, and having the same resources available as those from the 80s. There aren't endless computer magazines devoted to learning about programming the arduino and all the i

I think this is a semantic argument... If 100 independent scientists reproduce results, those results themselves are a scientific consensus, are they not?

I'd rather shift with my left, so my right can steer. Back when I drove auto, I'd often drive with just my right hand on the wheel, it felt completely natural. It took me a while to get used to left hand only, and I'm much mo

Actually asking, what are you trying to say? I'm interpreting this as airplanes don't have engines, but a jet turbine is still an engine, so you must mean something else?

In memory data like that is always accessible by someone who wants it bad enough (with a physical device and a clean install), one can run Windows in a debugger like environment and view all of system memory. I think that's why most DR

Someone detached my brake cables on my bike locked right next to a hill that lead to the busiest road in the area. I noticed before I even got on the bike, but come on people.

Oh my god I wish I had known you could do that, [warning, don't read if you don't want to hear a horrible story about a mouse] I put down a glue trap to get what I thought were cockroaches but came to find a mouse stuck in it. Hor

RAII has nothing to do with reference counting, it stands for resource acquisition is initialization. In C++ that means the lifetime of a resource is tied to the creation and destruction of an object. Often when people talk about RAII and C

Probably demographics. People who buy Teslas are probably less likely to be in an accident regardless of whether or not they're in a Tesla. Other things might matter too, like lane departure warning and blind spot detection, which woul
