Huh, that actually looks standard. Approx $590. I can't get a clear idea if this is 64-bit or not though. Also, with this board, I don't see anywhere obvious to bolt a heatsink - and at 1.1GHz, I'd be be reluctant to do overn

There's a truckload of feedback already so I'll keep it short. Two things: 1. A "TV mode" that cycles between examples with a pause in between so I can sit going "oooh, okay!" for a few minutes 2. A random mode

Followup idea: a trusted neutral 3rd party that ranks CAs by various factors, such as controversiality. Quotes Wikipedia and other (arguably) objective sources [of fact] and welcomes debate about potential bias. Perhaps this group could pub

I wasn't aware that "plenty" of supplies lack bleeder resistors - and ouch, I didn't consider the case where the unit might be damaged, thanks. Considering the level of energy stored in the average PSU cap, if I use a de

While I'm not 100% on Qt's history, some quick Googling finds references that suggest moc was around in the Qt2 days, which was 1999, which was before even C++03 was a thing. So it's mostly a historical relic, now hidden away

On that note, I'm quite surprised this hasn't been yanked. Depending on externally-controlled services for info like this is a bit scary. But then there are probably 100 backups of the page and info by now so...

Yeah. I suspect that in this particular example it's getting confused by the dashes, which it interprets as an ignore flag. Very silly... I've actually found that other search engines are actually better at technical searches than

It would probably have required a bit of thought, but PHP can access databases, (presumably) alter files, and the like; so while full UNIX shell access might not have been possible, practically speaking PHP could have done a lot of damage o

Maybe I'll have to give it a look. I get the impression it wants to add a bit of its own special sauce into things. I was just thinking along the lines of building the libraries and binaries together and adding an init script or two, w
