Well, if you need to fit the lab in laptop case sure, also great as a learning tool for a classroom (which I think was original idea behind it?) but in most cases you'd be far better off with say Rigol 1054Z + whatever cheapest logic a

I own AD2 and it is great little tool at the price (which was around $280-300 at the time IIRC), but this slowly creeped up to price of say Rigol 1054Z with far less acquire capability.

Your intuition is spot on, carbon fiber is much better at tensile loads than compressive loads. Tensile load capacity is pretty much the resin that keeps the fibers from moving. The most I could find about the design > The entire pressur

Common misconception, don't need to be intelligent or sophisticated to be one, social skills and utter ruthlessness seem to be way more indicative.

Billionaires get to the money by the art of charisma and bullshitting so it is entirely possible they got bullshitted all the way to the bottom on that too

Frozen food absolutely, as you can have something that's still pretty nutricious but very fast to prepare. Fast food ? I'd argue drawbacks heavily overshadow benefits of saving few minutes

Why on earth would someone go thru the effort to sell it at cost thought ? Also you underestimate economies of scale behringer can employ, I'd be surprised if you could get close to their price. You can look at various DIY stuff and yo

Sure I am annoyed that in many cases they rip it 1:1 without improvement, and that they rip some products actively in production. But in greater scheme of things it's some products authors already paid NRE few tens or hundreds times ov

Compared to how original looked that's fucking improvement, original have indecipherable panel if you don't already know how it works. But yeah, I wish that they at least tried to improve upon original instead of blatant copy

There is definitely a value if you don't have a bunch of Linux nerds on board or desire to be the one that tracks why some random bug happens. For just ease of management and customization can't beat vanilla Debian

Debian is relatively problem-free compared to RHEL; and update-in-place also works. Sooo much less fuckery, packages are just there and don't require installing/buying some random addon just to have DRBD+pacemaker cluster (that
