Batteries? You mean like digging a hole/making a wall and pumping water? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taum_Sauk_Hydroelectric_Power_... Or we could just spin some rocks around. ht…

Reminds me of the PGs in Bengaluru, but way worse since there aren't sound dampening walls.

Haven't looked at the full pc part picker breakdowns. But this is at least a good sign. Still WAY more than I want to pay. https://camelcamelcamel.com/product/B0BZHTVHN5

Hey, the uptime for oxygen is 99.9% this month Why are you complaining about the half hour of no air? Did you suffer some sort of brain damage? (<-- that's the joke. look up "hypox…

Really? I think Joel is the one full of it. Human directed selection is a thing. Have you ever seen a pug or do I need 58 articles with a bibliography 20 miles long to tell you the…

This kind of crap is why I stopped buying from NewEgg years ago and don't buy anything expensive on Amazon anymore. They got bought by that company that decided on quantity over qu…

Dang. I guess kagi is about as useful as a cuecat with a synopsis like that.

This and Strike Commander are why I used a really weird serial port mouse driver I found on a BBS but used like 1/10th as much memory as the default mouse driver that came with the…

This came up at pretty much the perfect time for me to try out. I started learning OpenSCAD over the weekend to try out an idea to 3d print a 70" dome to make my own Star Wars Batt…

When I was in college in '93 getting my BA is CS, my mother once told me: "You should email Cousin Mark. He does stuff with computers and I bet he has an email address." I figured …

I am a fan. But not in the way it is mostly being used. A lot of the songs that Suno generates are "good enough". I've been using it recently to do two things. First is to make a s…

This is due to contracts. When we get a movie booked for our 1 screen theater, we are stuck with that movie and only that movie for the time we run it. 1 screen = 1 movie. We aren'…

Cool! I was hoping someone would make a better catalog for these. Searching thangs for specific things got really murky. I made a ton of the 2 grid 3 bay windowed bins to hold M3 a…

I work at keeping our small town single screen theater going. So, my experience is from a viewpoint of that, not from some mega 24 screen behemoth that some of his rules could appl…

I've read this one a few times and each time I see it I keep getting more and more pissed at Stripe. Customer: Hey, someone is using your product to steal money as I am seeing a to…

Should watch the video they did just before this one where they did a live popup shop and had people trying to torque the hell out of this and it stands up. Or even during this exa…
