Yes, this looked like an absolute mess. Repurposing a toaster oven as a reflow oven would have given much better results or just using a hot plate.

The support is provided by a company called CIQ rather than the engineers behind Rocky itself. You can even see their support tiers on their website (NASA picked Advanced) https://ciq.com/support/rocky-linux/

Probably because too many people have accidentally packed loaded flare guns on the plane. A loaded gun is only dangerous if someone uses it. A flare gun probably doesn't have much in terms of safeties so it has a better chance of going

Sounds like a USB power supply that doesn't do any power negotiation and just gives as much current over 5V as it can handle. Those things typically top out at 2.4A so not really sure where you'd get one that could do much more.

I can certainly see someone running a one-person Etsy or farmers market stand business all from their iPhone. You use Excel or Google sheets to track expenses and income or just track it in a real ledger book. All the banks have an app now.

Jack Daniels' counsel cares because they can bill an enormous amount of hours bringing a case to the supreme court.

So they still have humans loading up the dough flattener, applying cheese and toppings, taking the pizza out of the oven, putting it in the automatic cutter, and then handling the pizza until it gets to your door? Other than the dough flatt

I love seeing companies blindly encoding massive URLs into QR codes that end up being ridiculously detailed images. Like they would be impossible to scan unless you were right up close with a good camera because the individual dots are so s

Academic pursuits was really only something for the wealthy, land-owning class back then. Books were expensive. Public libraries were not common. Public schooling wasn't even widespread and certainly wasn't a path to higher learni

I've always heard the PS2 Linux kit was to defeat some higher tariffs on importation of video game consoles versus the lower ones on personal computers. Some editions of the PS2 came with the network module pre-installed so maybe even

That's exactly why they did this. They can lock out 3rd party vendors and also force you to buy new heads at an interval of their choosing all in the name of "ensuring quality".

Assume the earth is a perfectly smooth sphere with a constant force of gravity and there is no air resistance: Throw a ball parallel to the ground. Now throw it faster. It will land farther away than last time, right? Keep throwing it faste

One thing I question is all of the materials that originate from petroleum, like polymers. I'm sure there's sufficient quantities of ore on other planets but anything made from polymers is going to only come from Earth. Are we jus

Graham has been office since before email became ubiquitous. He's always had an aide to handle that for him.

Rochester Electronics marks them as obsolete. I doubt these are brand new, more than likely they are old stock.

If MSFT matches the same YTD return this time next year, a $120k salaried worker would have to invest $18k to get the same return they'd receive with a 5% raise. $18k is a lot of money for someone making $120k, probably living in an ex

Folding phones have some good use cases like video/photo/music editing, desktop publishing, word processing, and probably some other things I can't think of. However, those are all great things to do on a tablet or laptop. Th

Digikey doesn't give a shit about interfacing with a hobbyist tool. There's no money in it. They'd much rather spend the resources on developing interfaces for their customers that spend 100-1000x more money with them.

If all you get from the cop is a summons, it's not a crime but more akin to a civil infraction.

Experimenting on animals that cannot give informed consent is ok but not when there's a human involved? Arguably, I don't think that humans should get paid for what is essentially an elective surgery experiment when there's a

Both Intel and Xilinx sell FPGAs with hard ARM cores inside so you can run real Linux while being able to interface with custom logic. Additionally, it's pretty common to create ARM, RISC-V, or PowerPC soft cores in the FPGA when there

Easy, no devices in their hands after bedtime. Your child isn't some busy tech professional that needs to be on call for work emails. They can live without having their iPad and iphone in their room. When I got caught as a kid playing

Ikea does sometimes use that low quality particle board for some things but at least they seem to be intelligent as to what materials they use where. Whereas Walmart just sells things entirely made of that shit.

The only thing that seems to separate Ikea from similarly priced stuff on Amazon is the fact that I've never had misaligned parts from Ikea. Their QA is top notch despite some of their cheap stuff being very flimsy. I buy from Ikea kno

A company may want an outdoor outlet and for some reason, end up putting it on the same circuit that powers the door locks. The building has backup power so there's no risk of the door becoming unlocked if the whole building goes down

If they can't find the person solely responsible for something, then they got away. If you make an AI that is hooked up to the internet and it does something criminal, you'd be liable. You can't just let your pitbull roam the

I would just assume that the vendor's payment app would just play a chime and maybe a readout of the amount received. Every payment app I've used has a notification with name and total when I get money. I'm pretty sure Androi

Same, my family PC at the time had no good way to hook up to any TV in the house but I did own a big spindle of DVDs and had a PS2 in my room that could play them. I'd make authored copies of DVDs using DVDFlick for me and my friends s
