DAT Walkmans (Walkmen?) had other problems. DAT transports are vastly more complicated than those used for compact cassette, being a close relative to VHS and other video tapes. Th…

That is the Birkeland-Eyde process, which was superceded by the Haber-Bosch process because it is much more energy effective. As far as I understand, the reasons for using methane …

Solid rocket motors are conceptually simpler, but much more dangerous and in many jurisdictions legally dubious to make yourself compared to hobbyist bi-liquid or hybrid designs.

Sorry, no, that is absolutely not something worthwhile spending energy on

10% of crashes does not imply 10% of your crashes.

Probably because the author was an insufferable person and that that very book was part of the basis for (not "twisted") her inhumane and pretentious pseudo-philosophical spin on l…

>as a kid it shocked me that a customer in the US could get away with "I'll have a coke" as their only utterance to a waiter - no hello, please, thank you. As a Norwegian who's bee…

Yes. As if it wasn't out of touch enough, they even did it on the server version as well!

A filter like that will have very little attenuation in the audio spectrum. I agree however that indiscriminately throwing ferrites at problems can be a good solution!

Look, if it works for you and you're happy with it - keep it. More power to you. I just know that if I handed over something with such shoddy soldering to a customer, I'd lose my j…

>They seem to make decent products I don't agree with that sentiment. Their designs are subpar and the quality of the soldering is (maybe was) unacceptable: https://www.audioscienc…

Not at all surprised to see that it's a Schiit DAC causing this problem

Yes! I went there on my first trip to Portland last year for work. It was mesmerizing to look at all the beautiful equipment and meet all the cool people there. I've forgotten his …

A UMIK-1 is pretty cheap these days. Also check out REW.

Wealth tax on houses (and apartments, cabins etc..) are calculated as 25% of market value up to 10 MNOK and 70% over that. So you'd need to own a rather luxurious house before havi…

Yes, both at the EU level and also in many countries (EU and non-EU), see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Citizens%27_Initiativ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popular_ini…

Never mind hobbyists - I work in electronics R&D and my two favorite suppliers are US based even though I am not. Anxious to see how this plays out and that's not even considering …

I don't know where you guys are looking - both Farnell and RS Components, which are UK based and among the suppliers I use the most at work, stock leaded solder. There are other su…

This would be a good option provided the source is stereo and either the speakers are active or the amplifier has a processor loop.

Apart from many reasons mentioned by others, I find the "nearly unlimited" catalog to be very overrated. Every time someone asks me to queue a song, it's on Spotify maybe 50% of th…

I disagree. Most SMD components are perfectly fine to solder by hand. Using a good soldering station with a knife cartridge makes the job much easier. Same with a microscope, but I…

"simple and convenient" does a lot of heavy lifting in this paper - n -BuLi, chromium hexacarbonyl and MoOPH (had to look that one up!) is not something you find outside of a well …

I have never seen "meth" taken to mean anything other than methamphetamine, and certainly not methylphenidate.

Electromagnetic fields? Emitted by fibre-optic cables?

>Larry Ellison, the exorbitantly rich cofounder of software outfit Oracle Take note of the name. People like him should be forcefully removed from society.
