The knitting thing just doesn't add up at all even if it's kind of clever. Why would you make it from bronze? Why don't you find orders of magnitude more of these made from wood? Why would someone want to be buried with a kni

LED lighting is similarly wedged in patent hell. Put the damn things on "flexible wire" and the lawyers will devour you. If you want to launch a product in the space, expect that you will need to hire a bevy of attorneys to get th

Unfortunately the UDR which replaces the UDM costs a mere $79 and delivers more functionality including Wifi 6. UDM is kind of a poison pill at the moment.

For all of you wondering, according to the video, Waldo helps you avoid using something called Charles. So maybe if you don't really like Charles and wish for a different friend, Waldo is here for you. I have a friend named Waldo who m

ZLOG/ZIL devices journal writes; they have always been in zfs. SSD/NVMe with power loss protection are recommended. Yes, it requires dedicated devices, but so does L2ARC.

Their "generator" in this case appears to be the reactor which generates helium-3 fuel by fusing deuterium fuel. Their eventual endgame is a first stage D->3He (dont know the exact process) fusion generator followed by the seco

The pricing model with GitLab is really unfortunate for certain types of companies. For our developers who really do most everything in Gitlab, it's great, but buying the same licenses for literally anyone else who might need to peek i

My hypothesis on this is that all automaker's automatic emergency braking systems likely function at approximately the same level, but Tesla drivers are disproportionately likely to rely on it due to the use of Autopilot being so incre

TIL Ans is faster. Holy crap is this info coming to me too late; all of my programs could have been so much better. So I pulled out my TI-85 just now to benchmark this. It seems that the access is very close the same speed, but the implicit

Though I have absolutely no proof of it since that era is both a black hole for usenet and before calc-ti.org, I believe I can claim to have published the first fake-grayscale demo in asm for the TI-85. This would have been in maybe 1993 or

I immediately hit reply to suggest the Hermes Lite also; despite the crazy supply chain situation, there is a current manufacturing run going right now. With N2ADR's filter board, you have a complete 10W HF direct sampling transceiver.

1 facility for every ~100k people isn't unreasonable. It's like building an air treatment plant for every water treatment plant there is. Anyway, while these plants are busy reprocessing the entire planet's atmosphere they ca

This is not out of line with the price of fuel in some countries already; I think it demonstrates that the technology is quite possibly on the edge of economic viability for closing the carbon cycle of gasoline, even if we don't get hu

Question for phone repair folks: On teardown photos, it seems like the iPhone magnets are accessible after dealing with a few layers of adhesive. Is it possible and if so, how difficult is it to remove the ring of magnets?

Raspbery Pi is not really capable of being a serious time server out of the box (astronomical jitter) though it is fun to play with. I imagine that it would be possible to greatly improve it with some creative bare-metal or RTOS implementat
