Historically handbooks are smaller, shorter reference guides. Something that's portable and easy to carry with you. Something 10k+ pages in length doesn't fit that description.

Do you have a layman's explanation for what the 555 timer is used for and how it works?

I don't understand the design decision to use x86_64. It's not covered on their site, AFAIK. [1][2] It's not running Windows. Most software designed for Linux can be built for ARM. And, it's being billed as a next gen pl

Given the poor track record of the OpenSSL project, the grand parent's complaint for crappy programming isn't unfounded.

The claim cannot be supported, nor can it be refuted. Based on your link for public facing servers [1] MS Windows has a Market share of ~22%, which Unix-like operating systems have ~78%. [2] However, there are a lot of operating systems tha

Lots of photographers chose to shoot B&W even when colour was available. Some used it purely for aesthetics. Others chose it because it was less expensive to purchase and easier to self develop. Or maybe it's just what they had i

I've been holding onto a broken TRS-80 Model 100 for nearly a decade with the intent of dropping in replacement, modern hardware so I could have a Unix-like system on the go. The DevTerm has really caught my eye, although I'd pre

There's plenty of products made with plastic that holds up well, even in the most harsh environments. They decided to make the OP-Z out of plastic and it didn't hold up well. It's the fault of their poor design, or at least

Yeah... screw that. reMarkable's crappy UI shouldn't necessitate a bunch of extra work on the grandparent's part. They're completely justified in telling end users to go home to get the MAC.
