We should install solar panels over those lots at the same time. It covers some of the capacity need, cools the lot and the cars, and is an efficient use of space.

Why hasn't the B-52 ever been updated to use a high-bypass turbofan like the GE90 (777), CF6 (747-4), or GEnx (747-8)? It seems like it would be an easy win for efficiency and maintenance.

Since CCPA was superseded at the ballot box by CPRA (2020 Prop 24), that would probably govern (basically the reason CPRA exists). - https://www.insideprivacy.com/ccpa/californians-approve-ball... - https://

Not really germane to the topic, but a financial transactions tax would effectively kill HFT without the complexity that you're suggesting.

Or buy a color laser, which aren't even that expensive and work great too.

The FTC (or congress) should mandate this for everything. The price for something should be the final, out the door price. It's amazing to travel in the UK and buy something at the supermarket. If it says ￡1, then that's the cost

Just use a $12-$15 HDMI->USB capture card off eBay/Amazon. They work incredibly well and you don't have to deal with buggy software. I've been using my GH3 as a webcam since the beginning of the pandemic. I bought this one

Since some are throwing out good, more specific, gear tests. I'd like to throw out Baby Gear Lab ( https://www.babygearlab.com ) if you need baby stuff. They're way better than the Wirecutter because they're run by

Grab an old Panasonic GH3 and the 20mm f1.8 lens. It looks great. This is a pretty decent list: https://www.elgato.com/en/cam-link/camera-check

Agreed. I set up a really nice webcam by using a Mirrorless Full Frame camera and my wife refuses to use it when she sits at my desk. She doesn't want her coworkers to see her with that much detail and clarity. By the way, just using a

Not sure about MLS, but the MLB is extremely aggressive at blocking most VPN providers.

Two things to know as well. WIC only pays for certain sizes for formula[0] purchased at retail because they're afraid that poor women will stock up on formula or resell it. Also women have to pay part of the cost of the formula for the

> there's plenty in Europe Is that actually true? I would expect formula to be the kind of thing that has a very consistent demand profile, and there wouldn't be a lot of surge capacity in the European manufacturing plants.

The issue here is that the FDA and Abbot didn't treat it as an emergency when the Abbot facility was forced to close in the first place. Had they acted as if it was an emergency, they would have mobilized all available resources to cle

That fire was set by sabotage and the saboteur disabled many of the fire control systems before setting the fire[0]. Embarrassing for sure, but not quite maximum resources. [0]: https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/

If this was rational, you'd be able to drop your kids off on the way to work and pick them up on the way home (ie: 8am to 6pm or something similar).

Probably fake, but as someone who implemented MMS systems years ago, MMS is just SMTP under the hood (with some extra stuff to make phone numbers work like email addresses)[0]. Since it's just stored as a message in a mailbox, it'

I make Alton Brown's recipe every year. Aged eggnog is delicious. I'd never realized that aging it (at least 3 weeks) actually makes it safer. [0] - https://altonbrown.com/recipes/aged-eggnog/

Not that HN is really the place for this discussion, but the _news_ section of the WSJ is pretty neutral and well written. The _opinion_ page is very slanted towards "corporatist/capitalist views".

Panaracer T-Serv Messenger bike tires are what you're looking for. They're lighter than the gatorskins and work incredibly well. I rode one pair until the tread was gone in SF (several years) and never got one flat tire. https:&#

Great stuff, but it doesn't work on induction stoves. If you learn to cook on stainless steel, it's really great for cooking.

Your recyclables don't need to be particularly clean when they go in the bin. Just clean enough that they won't make everything else in the bin dirty (particularly paper). During the last drought in California, San Jose asked peop

Best Buy is great for electronics. They have control over their supply chain and you don't have to deal with counterfeits.

I used to hate Best Buy because I had some poor return experiences back in the 90s, but now it's my first choice for online shopping because they only sell first-party items and they have control over their supply chain. This is partic

I had a motorcycle pass between me and a car while I was in a bike lane. Revved his engine while he was right next to me. Scared the daylights out of me. It sounded like a bomb had gone off. Seriously, screw motorcyclists with loud pipes th
