So I’ve done a bit more testing. First, the ISA slot situation. ISA is a very simple protocol. Simply wiring in additional slots to an ISA system should work to add more slots, though eventually you can run into issues. Continuity testing with my multimeter shows that the header I have is in fact wired…
Trying to find an affordable Operations Division shirt from the TNG-VOY era and I see TNG era ones… listed as Command Division. No. Yellow was Command Division in TOS, but in the TNG+ era yellow is Operations. Command is red in that era. Grrr. Kind of striking out, it’s falling into a price range where…
So I’m looking at maybe getting a new checking account. My existing one works, but there’s nothing special about it. And really the whole decision was on two factors- right on my commute, and no fee/no min balance checking. I needed it easy to get to because my previous work paycard had atrocious build quality.…
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6639301/Kelsy-Karter-gets-Harry-Styless-face-TATTOOED-cheek.html So, this article came across my radar and WTF people. Now, to be fair, it’s not the worst face tattoo I’ve seen. It is, after all, recognizable as a human face. Not a super strong resemblance to Harry Styles, but it’s fresh and the skin is probably angry right now and some allowance needs…
While the old behind-blue-eyes.us will remain active for the next several months, the current domain, which will actually be renewed, is http://anniethebruce.com in line with IDs and such I use elsewhere on the net. Update bookmarks accordingly.
Since watching a few videos about the Stirling Engine, I’ve had a thought to build one. But what to power with it? A boat. I could heat the top with sunlight. Paint it black for maximum heating, materials chosen to hold as much heat as possible. The cold end would be flush with the hull. Possibly…
Had a random thought. The Emperors of Japan stopped claiming divine ancestry under pressure of the US occupation force after World War II. Had the United States not pushed the issue, and had the guns to force the issue if it came to that, it would not have happened. While the fact that it happened…
https://www.quora.com/If-Earth-were-to-be-unavoidably-destroyed-in-10-years-what-would-the-United-States-do If we’re looking at something that can actually shatter Earth, we’re screwed. Pretty much completely. Even a Mars colony might not save the species, something that big will wreck orbits and cause tidal stresses and all sorts of other crap. Our best chance in this case is to start with a distress call- just…
So, I have no idea what a tachometer is used for when driving a car, other than “don’t let it get into the red”. Diagnostics, though, here’s a story. So I’m driving home, and my car is acting a bit funny. Engine runs smooth, but every time I let off on the gas power plummets…
http://www.cracked.com/photoplasty_2112_20-insane-thought-experiments-thatll-blow-your-mind/ Number 8 is fun. Make the assumption that all relevant terms of the contract are specified in the statement of the paradox. In that case, it only says that Bill has to pay after he wins his first case. Not “upon winning”, at some unspecified point “after”. Strictly speaking, if he wins…
