I'd try the Weatherby .220 Swift but I think it'd still lose to the glass. The 120mm smoothbore main gun on the M-1 Abrams tank fires a depleted-uranium penetrator rod that can get near 6000 ft/sec. That'd win.

Or, for me, anyway: He often doesn't deliver what he promises to deliver. I still find his writing enjoyable and he is a captivating speaker, but his stuff seems to go… nowhere.

This is a great thing you have made. I have one criti-suggestion: I am somewhat colorblind and have a very hard time discerning the difference between the domain availability (available/not available/don't know). Perhaps ma

Wow. Thank you. I had no idea this existed. I have a Canon S95 long languishing on the shelf and will have to give CHDK a try.

The dog food is often the first to go. I tried it just out of curiosity and found that they quite like it. They also like vol-au-vent or other canapé.

I have found that they like dry, unsalted popcorn. They also like small kibbled dog food, and really go nuts over dried cranberries and unsalted almonds. If there are sunflower seeds in the mix, they are always the last to be eaten.

Don't know if that's what they are made for but screening is certainly one way I use them.

I like use a 5.5 x 8.5 or 9 x 12 Strathmore 300 Sketch tablet for notes. They are sturdy and the paper is quite good. They are a pain if you want to scan/copy them as the paper is either smaller or larger than standard letter size. ht

Not that wikipedia is the end-all, be-all authority on double-clutching. "While double clutching is not necessary in a vehicle that has a synchronized manual transmission, the technique can be advantageous for smoothly upshifting in or

This is true, the gearbox almost sucks the next gear in. I often do it when taking first gear while rolling at a low speed.

I have been doing all these horribly, scandalously abusive things all my life and have yet to replace a manual gearbox or have a throwout bearing fail prematurely (or at all).

Rev match, double-clutch, float, are all a part of the art of a manual, necessary or not. They're fun. Done correctly, I seriously doubt any are any more damaging to a synchronized manual than regular old shifting.

This is basically how I taught my son to drive a manual. I used a low-torque Toyota Corolla with a 5-speed manual. I found a large, flat area—a mega-church parking lot—and, in first gear, told him he can do whatever he wants, as long as he

I have tried, and over a fairly long period of coaxing with popcorn, and they remain extremely wary. Only once, out of a group of 15-20 crows, did I earn the trust of a single crow enough that he, or she, would come within 10 feet of me to

When I was very young, my father ground a 6" mirror with a 48" focal length. I vaguely remember him walking around a table for hours every night for weeks. The first mirror was a failure and he had to start again. The finished tel

My go to 50 is an odd, but extremely (razor) sharp, Canon 50mm f/2.5 compact macro. Sadly, it is no longer made. AF is slow and loud and prone to repeatedly hunting and missing focus but the images it makes, particularly portraits, are

You might try Sitemark. I know nothing about them beyond their stated purpose: "Sitemark is the platform where Network Operators and Property Owners come together to connect the world." https://sitemark.org
