I am hoping for a fossilized X-wing.

"Death Valley" is a recent gentle comedic crime detective series on the BBC (iPlayer), set in Wales and the characters frequently break into Welsh (with English subtitles). It's lo…

According to the ejection seat manufacturer [1] there is no minimum height or speed at which the ejection seat can be used, so as long as the aircraft is roughly level then the eje…

Does the phone make a different kind of noise, so you'd potentially associate that with "get off the ladder quick"!?

True - but if you erode that trust then your users may go elsewhere. If you keep the ads visually separated, there's a respected boundary & users may accept it.

Fan noise might be another consideration, given that some projects have to share a home with a family. Anyone know whether the N150 makes much noise?

Sussex? We used it in COGS and I think it was one of very few places teaching with it at the time.

IIRC, The Angelic (pub in Islington, London) used to play comedy shows from BBC Radio 4 on a loop. Makes customers smile, covers up noises - everybody's happy.

You might enjoy DI FM [1] which I've found has an excellent range of faster and slower tempo music for programming. [1] https://www.di.fm

Good question, does this mean my family's holy grail of performant Minecraft on a Pi is coming closer?

Would this work over larger distances - e.g. remote sensing from space?

What are we going to do with all those dormant pipes? Could some clever startup use them to route physical packets of stuff? :)

Given that any previous water in the atmosphere has mostly escaped over time, the dome seems like a better bet.

What about embedding into the walls themselves?
