So many people loved it, The Weather Channel actually put out CDs. One such example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/127083056970

After they killed Apollo, my usage after 15 years went from hours a day and tanked to a few minutes a month at present. They showed their hand, and I showed myself the door for the…

Not to mention that to a large extent, you can spend the difference between stock unit prices making an Ender-3 v2 nearly as capable as a $799-$1,000 printer. Does it make sense? O…

Need more old-school absurdity like this on the web these days.

Let’s de-escalate it to relative car value to income then, in which case I’d say Warren Buffett is a good candidate. While you might not consider it ratty, it’s still pretty ground…

Similarly, I have my desk lamp outfitted with Hue lights controlled via HomeKit, which always turn on 15 minutes before work and turn off at the usual time I clock out plus 15 minu…

I 3D printed a QR code puck for my house wi-fi. It's an easy demonstration of at-home fabrication that elicits some conversation, without having to hand over a password.

This is a brilliant way of framing it; I couldn’t agree more.

Some days, you have to wonder where we’d be if Pownce actually won out against Twitter back in the day. That Twitter won out ended up being more consequential than anyone could hav…

AS&S is, in a relatively literal sense, next door to me. Fun bunch of folks whenever I stop by. But as a late 70s Gen Xer, I would never trade living through that transition period…

That would be Palm webOS.

The nostalgia I have for 2009-2011's webOS, as a former app dev for the platform and its embrace of the Web Platform, is still very much real to the point that I keep my Palm Pre 2…

I think what separates the two camps is a positive incentive to admit failure, which is where the rarity comes in, as highlighted by other posters. If the group's incentive is inte…

Pretty timely as I'm hunting down an old (practically bulletproof) Sony TC-D5M field recorder for my system here and want to know what I'm getting into since there are some known i…

It's worth posting Moderna's research pipeline to understand the breadth and depth of where they plan to take mRNA vaccines: https://www.modernatx.com/pipeline

I’ve been seeing a fair groundswell of “all-day” lagers and IPAs between 3-4% as of late, so it feels like there’s a market for lower ABV brews getting tapped.

I can’t thing of a tech market segment more in need of “disruption” by now, quite honestly.

Multiple countries around the world have legal standards around accessibility. Then you have the ethical, DE&I, and business reasons to enable disabled users equal access to the we…

I've got two Blueair 121s (the larger sibling to the 211+) that were recently on sale at Costco.com for the price of the 211+. My family could sense the difference in air quality w…

And, importantly, I can resell the hardware and recoup a significant amount of my base costs when a new generation of hardware comes out.

They made a full-court press in the SEM environment as well, especially for lead-gen/landing pages. Otherwise, same song and dance.
