Title edited a bit to clarify that it's UK datacentres, and that it's specifically proposed ones - apparently the network is being swamped by speculative applications for grid conn…

Sadly it's true. I've seen people just put the dishes in the dish rack and let the soap bubbles slide off them.

This one has a digital oscillator, but uses a coil of wire wrapped around a loudspeaker to introduce feedback into the audio path. This somehow gives a really nice 'roughness' to t…

The Flux mode is really pretty!

CRI of 80 is not great. From my reading, you want CRI 90 if you want light that's pleasant to exist in.

I'd prefer to run Linux, but one of my two primary dev targets requires a proprietary Windows IDE (Automation Studio by B&R). So running that on Windows then using WSL to develop f…

I really like Darktable, and it's my go to photo editor, but the user interface really isn't intuitive on first look compared to something like Lightroom. The design choice that ed…

Unfortunately, vintag.es does seem to have done some work here - while they copied the text, they also added several more images to the single image in the original post.

Hah, damn. We live in different worlds - in mine, 100K samples/sec is blazingly fast! I'm currently working on a PLC program, replacing the PLC's basic cyclic input sampling (max 2…

And they feel so futuristic !
