Why would I want to play a game where the poor get poorer and the rich get richer, trying to get a bit less poor myself? I already do that in the real world.

Note that the Pi 5 has a real time clock - you just need to add a small battery and it will keep the time when powered off: https://picockpit.com/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-5-has-a-real...

Guessing here: If you have a breaker switch after an additional switch, labelling the breaker with 'on/off' may be misleading as 'on' doesn't necessarily mean the connected device is powered. It may be off beca

I have an unorthodox suggestion: get a bicycle rear radar like the Garmin Varia. They communicate via Bluetooth LE incoming cars, their count, and an average speed (in a set of ranges like 0-15km/h, 15-30km/h, …). Mount this with

I think being so heavily pushed by Apple is actually a downside for ObjC here. I really enjoyed programming ObjC when I was programming for iOS and Mac. That was mostly because of the very rich API shipped with Apple products. Can you point

Quite funny - I know someone who uses a similar setup to send GPS Coordinates for a Quadcopter and a Plane via the audio channel of the video link (he flies the Quadcopter/Plane with video goggles) to the ground station. There, an Ardu

The funny thing is that the biggest operator in Germany, T-Mobile, offers the biggest horseshit there.

Seriously? 5 months to create a product (assuming you don't have anything right now, based on the not-existing pictures & the scenes from Iron Man as the product video)? That won't work. Also, what about 'iWatch'? It

While I like the Arduino movement very much, I don't see what's so special about this. It's a breakout board for an ATTiny, with some vreg and an usb port on board. So what?

Discussed before. This is essentially a bad scooter and a bad bicycle combined. You can't use bike lanes in most countries and the motorcycle performance is bad too.

I don't know about the current state of the cooling mechanism, and I don't want to doubt there has been major spills of nuclear water in the past, but why are they so sure that this mist over the sea is caused directly by heat rel

I approve this too. Don't go to Germany. As a German citizen I really hate to say this, but recently there has been a hitch in the media where there were protests by neonazi groups in front of asylum homes. Sadly, there are still peopl

150ms is too long for FPV. Others have tried it. It might be flyable, but it won't be good.

Protip: Always store your Bitcoin private keys on multiple locations. I don't think the DEA has moved the bitcoins itself, they most like just took the harddrive with the wallet on it.

Put your phone inside while it isn't powered off will make it increase the transmission power up to 11, draining the batteries in minutes. That's how it turns off everything - it drains the battery. God, just turn it off (and remo

defn nested in defn seems totally wrong from a LISP (or Clojure) viewpoint. Isn't there a let or letfn? (Please note that I have no idea of Python)
