    Given a good control link such as ExpressLRS [0], people can also fly quadcopters 10+ kilometers on as little as 10 mW. See for example the range competition at [1]. Of course, the…

    For the Sponsorblock browser addons you can configure them to only show you a button to skip the segments if you like. I'm not sure if that option is available in Vanced or the New…

    Couldn't display-switch send a keypress (something that doesn't do much otherwise, like F15) automatically? You could probably get that result at the moment using the external comm…

    I can also recommend https://game-icons.net . As the name suggests, it mostly focuses on icons for games, but I find a lot of them are also usefull for other purposes. Most importa…

    I think you are conflating popularity of an argument with popularity as part of an argument. For the former, it's easy to agree that it does not affect the correctness of the argum…

    Every ICE car I've ever driven did exactly that with the 'reserve' where the needle is already at (or below) the zero line but you still get about 50 km of range.

    I had an experience that drove the second point home for me. We were doing a white water kayak course. At this school it was tradition at the end of each day to paint one of our fi…

    I'm unsure if it even applies in your case, but there is the risk of inadvertently creating botulism when storing garling in oil [1]. Since you are refigerating and adding acid, I'…

    I agree to some extent of course. If there really are meaningful concepts for intermediates or the whole formula, especially if you are applying it to a specific domain, you should…

    If you're interested in some fiction with this concept: In Neal Stephenson's 'Diamond Age' humans have mastered assembly of individual atoms in basically arbitrary ways. They use i…

    There is a now a comment on that article where the ground observer identifies himself and gives a few more details, so looks like you're right. > 1) I was giving Simon a heads up t…

    In Germany at least, companies are not allowed to put the printer in 'busy' areas. Starting from a certain company size, a seperate room may even be required. I believe particulate…

    Seems they are cherry-picking their cases somewhat. This graphic [1] shows a comparison of European countries with Germany pretty much in the middle. [1] https://de.statista.com/in…

    There is (used to be?) an XKCD IRC channel with a bot that only lets you send messages that have never been uttered in the channel before. https://blog.xkcd.com/2008/01/14/robot900…
