I built some really nice lab benches using the laminated “butcher block” tops. One has a 48”x72” work surface to accommodate deep test equipment and still have 24” of working depth. A 24”x72” shelf on top of that for more equipment. With

I wonder if they are using synthetic aperture radar to do this too?

I got a shotgun for my 8th birthday, though probably started shooting at age 6. I remember the first gun I shot was an AR-15 M1 (triangular hand guard). I bought my two kids their own .22 bolt action at 7 and 9. Then my son a .22 AR-15 at

Yes, all three in combination. GaAs PA, low cost GaAs LNA, and Turbo coding are what made it possible in the 90’s. You’ll notice that many dishes are wedged shaped than circular. This is to keep the beam width under the 2 degree spacing o

The original Apple FireWire webcam was very good, with a large, motorized lens. Despite boasting higher resolution, I doubt many modern webcams are as good, especially integrated ones.

I have tried Red Boat, but still prefer Three Crabs. It’s supposed to be lower quality, but I think it tastes better.

You can get unfinished cabinets of furniture grade plywood. I wanted mine to look like a nice piece of furniture (wife approved for living room), and it does, after much sanding, staining, and sealing. Extra modifications too, replacing p

Yeah, I was using a 30 dBm, L-band part that they discontinued, and had to redesign a PA section. Didn't HP acquire Avantek back in the 90's? I used to use a bunch of ATF-xxx parts.

I thought most EDA companies put a stop to that with geographic licensing restrictions.

Oh BS! The guy (a drunk driver with a criminal history of child and wife abuse) turned and fired the taser at the cops. It’s too bad George Floyd (a drug addict career criminal) wasn’t shot and killed by an armed homeowner when he committe

Do you get motion sickness in VFR conditions, especially having to focus on instruments? I’m contemplating getting a PPL, but I’m very prone to motion sickness trying to read while flying. If I’m not resting, turbulence is just fine. Firs

To relieve the sickness from you or the passengers? Do you get motion sickness as a pilot, or only as a passenger? I have been camel sick; large, slow motions.

I suppose the police chief is a white supremacist in black face, as a black female.

Pointing a telescope at tens of meters away will get you noticed pretty quick. Now one can sell lightbulbs with noise modulation to defeat it.

The Texas Tower sniper killed 14 with a Remington 700, at up to 500 yards, though he had an M1 too.

Lets say you are $150k into a $200k mortgage, then default. What prevents the bank from selling it at $50k, which is just enough to recover their principle?

Are you saying the filter was useless, or you couldn’t find a single candidate out of hundreds?

I'd rather they be counterbalanced with a well-armed citizenry, such as the "cosplaying" the article insultingly describes.

Searching the FBO.gov you can find interesting solicitations, like the Department of Education needing 125 shotguns.

Back in the cold war, there was a proposal to criss-cross the USA with underground tunnels carrying train-launched ICBMs. Would make for a great post-apocalyptic sci-fi movie.

Federal revenue will be gutted too, it’s just that the states can’t print money.

Cable TV is required. The KKK ran a show on a NYC public access channel back in the 90’s. Of course I could go cut the data lines running through the right-of-way on my property. I don’t agree with how these big data companies are censori
