Do any of these NOT have a plastic coating on the inside (most have a thin plastic layer). My pregnant wife is concerned about plastic coatings and hot drinks, and she has a point. Even where they’re removed BPA, it’s typically been replaced with something like bisphenol S, which is another estrogenic chemical, that’s…

I wonder if these can be used as a cheaper alternative to Alien Bees $240 Vagabond Mini Lithium studio strobe (aka big camera flash) power pack.

Musk has a bad record when it comes to keeping the first of his cars. The original Telsa Mule 1 (a modified 2004 Lotus Elise) was sold off when Tesla nearly ran out of money. It ended up in the hands of my Lotus mechanic.
Coincidentally, while visiting Motorola Mobility, I met the guy who while previously working for…
Bonus points for using “Manichean” in a Gawker article! Thank you for not dumbing down.
Beric Dondarrion still being alive is a big departure from the books. I won’t go in to the details, apart from saying Lady Stoneheart.
It’s an example of the Tragedy of The Commons: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tragedy_of_the_commons
Of course in general poachers who kill the last examples of a species are rarely aware of the fact. It’s usually only decades later, that scientists agree the species is gone.
But even if they did know that the last…
That’s not an arc light!
Edison bulbs?
Edison did not invent the light bulb. Like most inventions the history is very complex with multiple contributors (Humphrey Davey had invented arc lights many decades before, and many people had made incandescent bulbs with short lives), but Edison was beaten to the creation of a long life incandescent light bulb by…
US aircraft carriers may not have been used in direct action in 1945, but British aircraft carriers were used in direct conflict in the Falklands War in 1982.
In that case the British were fighting a far less capable enemy (Argentina), but within Argentine airstrip range, while way outside of UK direct airstrip range…
Hmm, I tried that a few times and didn’t get good results. My cheap Aroma did a much better job. Maybe the type of rice I was using made a difference (it might have been calrose rice I tried).
I guess I need to try a few more times.
With an Asian (Vietnamese-America) wife I have to get it right or it’s the dog house for…

What settings and how much water are you using in the Instant Pot? I’ve tried a few times and I’ve got less than satisfactory rice out of it.

There’s more to it than this. It’s been proven that CEOs only have a weak effect on the success of their companies.
One study tracked the performance of “good” CEO as they went to other companies, by looking at how well their new companies fared under their leadership. Likewise they did the same with “bad” CEOs.
If a…
I didn’t know they even have a microSD card! I assumed it was all on board NAND flash.

Typical! I just bought a new one of these on Saturday to replace one that we’ve had for around 18 months, but had started making loud clicking on some of the sound settings after maybe 6 months (no ECC on the audio files I suspect).

Mitsubishi-branded pills were legendary in Europe around the millennium. I’m sure the producers of these are referring that.
Mobileye does not provide sensor chips. They provide ADAS systems primarily using image sensors from ON Semiconductor (formerly Aptina).
To use an analogy, they do not make the eyes. They make the brains.
I bought mine for this price a few months ago from Sur La Table (of all places). They had a sale on, but I was still surprised to see such a low price.

I never knew that engines could run on smoked salmon. Do they catch the fish and smoke them on board, or load them when docked?
I remember the Apollo 11 moon landing. I was only two, but I’ll never forget how happy the old guy who lived next door was. He came bounding in to our house with the biggest smile on his face to tell everyone the news.
