This is funny because there is a brand called "OEM" at parts stores that sells chinese junk. I am all about finding the original parts that the dealer will sell, but on the aftermarket at reasonable prices.

We did this on the zx81 too. I think there was a game that used an AM radio for sound. It was certainly written up in the contemporary computer magazines. I guess this will be rediscovered every time someone happens to figure out timing l

It sure seems like the FBI has protected criminals in the past when they had the potential to give the Bureau information about other criminals. These suspicions were also raised in the Whitey Bulger case. I believe that this kind of beha

I think this pen is a passive device, so I wouldn't call it RFID. It may be more reasonable to compare this to an anti-shoplifting tag.

I know that a lean burning petrol engine will emit more NOx, but as an American who is not a truck mechanic I don't really know much about diesel. Does it work the same way in the diesel cycle? On the other hand, I am reasonably sure
