I won't drive an electric car as long as possible. Not because they are electric or I have any love at all for cumbustion cars, but because I work in the industry. I see what's inside those things, I see what the plans for the ne

There is this delightful anecdote of former World Champion Jenson Button, who did a one-race stand-in for Fernando Alonso. After the race Alonso thanked him via Radio for bringing his car back in one piece and Button proceeded to radio back

We have one of those rotary jigs for our 60W Laser Cutter/Engraver. We tried to do basically the same by engraving glass bottle for a project. Damn, the dialing-in process was... energetic.

While this tweet is factual, be very careful with this account in general, is has turned from a good source to a very slanted and biased fake-news-accelerator.

Just one "Datapoint", but I have a colleague that works in injection molding. Granted, he works on the "other end" of the size scale (complete car underbodys in one part), but he always said it was more or less a given f

Fun fact: Airborne Jammers like these might be one of the last places of state of the art technology where the good old vacuum tube is still better than semiconductors. For large power amplifiers, especially with power and power-density con

Another Software for that is KStars/EKOS. It also does fancy stuff like plate solving and focusing with external focusers. Pretty Powerful, especially in combination with Astroberry

Tangently Related: The Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation was the biggest mislabeling of human history - neither Holy, nor Roman, nor an Empire, not a Nation and not really German.

Well, in the larger metropolitan regions (Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim), where probably 2/3 of Norwegians live, you see a majority of electrics or at least hybrids. When you get further North, that diminishes. From Lofoten to Tromsø, you se

Every cent Digikey looses they loose by being Digikey. Of all large suppliers, they are by country miles the worst and we try everything to avoid them. Farnell, Mouser, LCSC beat them handily. And their pages are already bad.

Somehow, the US seems to have forgotten to get more than "always the same" to the front. Also, the helmet-bullshit is driven by polish anti-german pis-bullshit. Germany delivered PZH2000 and Gepard, as well as being the first with
