I'll be fitting some 12v-based USB wall sockets, much like the type you can fit in a car. These can then provide power for phones. Regarding computers, I've so far only considered my desktop. You can get ready made DC to DC ATX po

I've considered voltage drop over cable length only in as far as I'm aware that it occurs. I haven't tested the level of voltage drop. I currently use 12v circuits in my camper van and haven't experienced any significant

Interestingly, I'm looking to do exactly this in a new home (new to me, not newly constructed). I'll soon be moving to a park home (a relatively-permanent mobile home) that is in need of a fair amount of renovation. I'll be r

Any idea when we'll see the hardcover copy available direct from Amazon UK? For non-linear books such as this I often prefer a physical copy as I can very easily flick back and forth between sections. I could buy the hardcover copy fro

I think you would have to experience first-hand what it is like to drive in almost any country that is outside the US, Europe or most of the commonwealth to really appreciate the difficulty of developing a self-driving car that could handle

The universe initially expanded very quickly but not at the speed of light. A university professor of mine[0] who was (perhaps still is) involved directly in international scientific efforts to examine the expansion of the universe once exp

What other methods are you looking to introduce and when might they be an option? I created a Stellar account but am in the minority of people who don't have a Facebook account and was a little disappointed.

The whole event was filmed. I'd expect an edited version will be made available.

That being said, people who sniff UA string to serve different content (or even block the user) should end up in hell. Goodness me how I could rant endlessly on this subject. I operate an automated web frontend testing service and much of

The blue text with red caret solves a real problem. It might appear odd in the context in which it appears, that is with the caret at the end of the line, but consider cases where the caret is between letters in a word. When editing a secti

How can you be sure? Just curious, not saying you're wrong.

I find it interesting that you say this since it's quite opposite to my needs and usage. I find multimedia keys to be an annoyance. I only press a multimedia key by mistake when intending to hit a different key or when trying to rest t

GitHub certainly has wikis, I often use project wikis to document various bits and bobs.

I think my point was that it is commonly regarded as a country, at least in my experience when it comes to people who don't live in the UK. Technically the UK is a sovereign state composed of four countries and not a country itself.

Yes, they certainly are different countries. I say technically as by definition they are but in the way they are treated I'd say they're not. I'd say the difference between Wales and England as a whole is no different in sp

I was born in Wales and live currently in England. These are two different countries of the four that form the UK. My personal impression is that within the UK these are not seen so much as different countries but more as different administ

I concur with the unreliability of hardware. Back in January a production Hetzer box of mine saw both HDDs die at the same time. That somewhat killed the redundancy benefit of RAID. That said, it did spur a month-long effort to truly revamp

Thanks, that's a great idea that somehow escaped me. I agree that using stolen card details to subscribe to a recurring service is unlikely for the purpose of using the service. My concern is that through being able to take out a subsc

Slightly off-topic: what's a good way to handle cases such as this where you have a wildcard certificate? I'll be getting a wildcard certificate for a project and, never having used one before, I had assumed the certificate would be valid f

I initially misread esquivalience as esquivalence and took it to mean estimated equivalence, as in the word that is to equivalence what guesstimate is to estimate.
