Thats Teenage Engineering - sexy looking, highly dysfunctional junk that you will regret investing in, instead of getting real professional gear.

64Megs is only going to get you so far. 1010Music Blackbox is by bar a much, much better investment. Screw Teenage Engineering. They degrade everything they touch.

The people of HN would benefit greatly by expanding their cultural horizons, visiting Belgrade, enjoying the delights of kafana, and erasing their prejudices about other cultures on the basis of inexperience. Belgrade is a beautiful city fu

The pedantry is just passive-aggressive hostility. There is a high jealousy avoidance factor in such responses - finding such an 'obvious' or 'easy' fault devalues the subject, so the jealousy fades away. "I have

Once upon a time, there was a fresh new operating system, the next step, being demo'ed in the Graphics pavillion of Comdex. Some huge nerd stood there, dragging things around with a mouse, 'proving' that you didn't have

The third thing is, what if there is no need to invade? Taiwan is a liability, on the grand scheme of things. We need to not have a concentration of such vital capability in a single source. The cost of an invasion or the cost of booting up

This is a very impressive effort to point out a major, unjust act being committed on civilians by military leaders, but it has to be noted that nothing will change in this situation for as long as the military junta that really runs the USA

Meh. Gaining accesses to the resources available on Psyche 16 would be absolutely a civilization-changing event if we were able to harness them somehow. Imagine if gold was more common to the human species than aluminum?

Once we are able to send a Starship to Psyche 16, and start building new Starships, humanity is in for a huge leap. And this isn't even unrealistic - it could be that in 5 - 10 years the next major rush for humanity is to establish a

No kidding. The doublethink in this, is astonishing! "Not using the term apartheid" is, itself, an attempt to marginalize the efforts and sacrifices made by the Palestinian people against the apartheid state forced upon them.

This is a really exciting mission, imho - probably one of the most exciting of all current space missions. The reason is that 16 Psyche is hypothesized to be a very, very rich ball of metal. A million times the material wealth we have here
