I was really hoping the end of Chevron deference might mean Caltrain might get to kill off horns and bells. Alas, I don't think so. The optional noise (horns and bells, especially near the level crossings) is obscene and I don't k

Maybe visit them a bunch with the kid for a while to hook them on the drug, then stop doing it and renew the invitation for them to move. That's what my parents did to my grandparents.

Is the family portable? Like it might be cheaper to buy them a house near you.

I got an NVMe to USB enclosure, put a disk I had laying around into it, and loaded Ventoy onto the disk. It's fantastically fast and I love it.

My personal experience is that while Windows is very hostile (and getting worse) to its users, it's rarely broken or buggy. The system lets me get work done and not fidget with the system itself. Linux-on-the-desktop has made great str

I also still play TA from time to time. It is kind of annoying that if your screen resolution is big enough to display the entire map at once that it crashes.

The Google Prius, RX450h, and Pacifica were all hybrids. The power plant and autonomy system are nearly completely independent.

Like some other good-bones free software, the UI is terrible. I challenge anyone who has prior CAD experience, but no FreeCAD experience, to install the software and design a simple bracket in under an hour. I tried Fusion under Wine and it

I have a Rainforest Automation Eagle 200 radio box that pairs with a PG&E meter to enable real time data egress. The onboard software is brittle and the device fails to boot up completely, though it is responsive to local network reques

I really don't think there's any significant value to be gained by turning this into a module. Everyone wants a slightly different form factor and the thing is so easy to design around that a module isn't meaningfully achievi

It's powerful and the UI is atrocious. I'm an occasional user and there's nothing I can do in under ten minutes of futzing or seeking tutorials.

Not in this country. It might get you through the first round of environmental studies for such a network though. Remember that the SF to LA rail line is up over $135B and still has many years of cost growth ahead of it before completion.

This is the government, not an HOA, though in many places those things are difficult to distinguish.

We also had Sheetz vs County of El Dorado as a 9-0 against Takings, which probably surprised the left.

At least here in the US, we'll need to lose a war on home soil to a more enlightened power before we get land use liberalization.

The article is about California and I would suspect that relatively few entitled projects are abandoned there. If you know where to get the relevant data, please share.

That's Android, and not serving the stated purpose of moving files between Linux computers.

I'd like to do this with actual universal serial bus (USB), not peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) on a universal serial bus connector.

I grew up in Kentucky and our house had a lawn which we never fertilized, never seeded, and never watered. We cut it to about 4 inches high.

I did think about that and ultimately did do that. It's just not what the hardware could do, and it's a crappy solution. I don't often wander around with spare USB NICs, but a double ended type-C is in my standard kit. There&

I'd like it to work USB 1.1 through 3.2, not just Thunderbolt. We have dual role, why aren't we using it? Host side thinks it's talking to a NIC, device side acts like a NIC.

I recently spent longer than I care to admit researching how to use USB to connect two Linux computers, but without bearing fruit. How do you do it?

That's undershooting the possibility by a lot. If I plug two computers into each other via USB I would expect the OS on each to establish a network link at the best-available bandwidth.

In a USB type-C universe, why can't I even share files between two computers? If something so basic-and already possible with existing standards-isn't working today, why should I think that an announcement like this is anything mo

Over $100k per door impact fees! Years of entitlement hearings! Years of wrangling for building permits! Any project is a decade and costs a large multiple of its materials.

That would be great but it's not going to be swift or sufficient. The thing that would really do the trick is overturning Euclid v. Ambler, and really only SCOTUS or Congress can do that.
