   I've been considering getting a Pentium II thinkpad and going all Debian 3.0 on it, KDE2 and probably StarOffice something. Not as antique, but there is USB and thus Wi-Fi or cabled ethernet.

   Quite the opposite. Give me a "house improvement standard kit" and a well thought-out place to store it . A well-organized compartment, decent-quality tools that actually make sense, some extendability, and make it take up no spa

    English is my second language, and while I'm able to skim and read text very quickly, increased use of literary vocabulary puts me off very quickly. It feels like pulling the hand brake. These articles are that much more tiresome to

    Problem with those motors is you have to get from 10krpm down to 60-110rpm at the crank. This carries a surprisingly huge penalty in weight and efficiency, up to a point where it's a good idea to just choose a different motor.

    Decent road bikes (the one that you use more than 10k miles per year) are more than $2000 on their own. The electrical components go on top of that.

    Canon's 5Ds has been viewed as a game changer especially among aerial photographers. these guys used to convert six-seater planes and equip them with a catapult that pushes the camera back to get rid of motion blur during exposure time

    Funny how well it works in most other places to put shared infrastructure in the hands of the public. Maybe this is not about principle, but about implementation?

    Well, you can compare it to compressed RAW files, which are probably the closest we've come in terms of lossless compression. Then again, from a photography point of view, I do really like metadata, and I see no reason to omit them.

    I've always been wondering if file system RAM caches couldn't be moved to a fast SSD nowadays. Do you think this would be possible with, say, an Intel 750?

    This reads like the wrong combination of shoes and floor, resulting in huge ESD problems. Highly individual, too.
