All ebooks I have ever bought were instigated by stealing the first book from Pirate Bay. It must be bigger phenomenon than authors understand. Palahniuk knows this and made a video how to steal more of his books. Lars Wilderäng seems to un

But it works better than ever on GeForce GTX 760 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz KiB Mem : 16369924 total 1680x1050 59.95*+ Which is amazing, because another old machine with RTX 670 is now totally useless. Why is this?

In all countries the recommendation is now "75 years or older". Except that one Fauciland where it is "6 months or order". Very strange. Why is this?

If you wear rubber gloves and keep your other hand in the your pocket, I dont see any actual problems. Also long sleeves are good, I was recently zapped at the wrist when fixing an oscilloscope. I think maybe the 20 kV abates rather quickly

Father Noko was in Finnish Calvary in 1930s. In 1942 the horses were deposed and replaced with bicycles. However everything else remained the same, they still had red pants, spurs and swords, --clerical error in headquarters, perhaps. Sabl

50 years of Youtube is quite amazing. If I watch old video I can feel how I felt that day. That is why I dumped so much "unedited" shit to Youtube. -- I am the biggest consumer of my own content.

Lisp with Algol-like syntax was of course Mulisp (1977). It was so beautiful and complete that it was end of history. Everything else thereafter is just endless recycling same old shit. When you have clear rules between these two forms, yo

Anybody living in AD 1975. You could access government mainframes and Fortran, but it required lots of begging. I knew 8008, 8080, Z80, MC6800, RCA Cosmac, NOVA-1200 and PDP-11 assemblers and some more. I studied also Russian MIR-1 machine

In May of 1784, Washington paid several unnamed slaves 122 shillings (£6.10, equivalent to £794 in 2021) for a total of nine teeth to be implanted by a French doctor. Unless you install into fresh socket, the success must have been becaus

Dedicated teeth farming is little difficult I reckon. But we can clone a whole body just for spare parts. I bet some rich bastard is already doing that.

In medieval times they used to rob teeth from healthy young subjects. It was possible to "implant" those teeth just by jamming them by force into gums. Success rate unknown. So you could grow teeth in-vitro from patient's own
