I like that one.

One mad hatter, and the reason why.

Arch is a bit masochistic, even for people that are comfortable with linux on the desktop, but just need to get work done. I love the idea of ending up with only the things you need, instead of everything and the kitchen sink. But the ability to quickly and easily get everything I need, when I discover I need it,…

Yeah as a Scout that used to work pancake breakfasts once a year, with food supplied entirely by McDonalds, this. It was just pre-scrambled egg.

I'd go as far as to say every Republican deviates from the platform, somehow. I don't have a problem with gay marriage or abortion, so long as we're not talking about the gross, late-term sort.

Yeah I drink a regular pot or so over the course of a day. I know I drink too much, and my heart does race if I drink too much, too fast. I also pace, and can't focus. There's a bell curve in there though where you're superhuman.

This topic is older than dirt. I don't mean that in a condescending way, just that people have been kicking it around in one form or another for thousands of years.

Keep being right. Not unprofessional, not crying wolf every day, not "I told you so", not bitching to coworkers.

Right now I can't help but think of amazingly great it must have been to find one of the archaeopteryx fossils, or non-avian dinosaur fossils with feathers, or to have noticed quill knobs on velociraptor and forgotten to tell Spielberg.

It looks like a fairly typical breadboard arduino. Is the goal to simplify (/document) the process of starting with a bootloaded atmega to sidestep the cost of an arduino proper?

I still don't get why it doesn't work. People like involved shows with good story. Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Dexter, Lost, etc. Involved shows, some are even fantasy, they seem to do well. What is it about a good sci-fi that supposedly makes everyone turn off the TV while the rest of us continuously…

No, by "regular peanut butter" I meant the stuff you'd normally find on the shelf at a grocery. They're all just peanuts, sugar, a little bit of vegetable oil and sometimes a pinch of salt.

It can be produced naturally and it's a bleaching agent?

Even regular peanut butter usually has little more than a stabilizer to prevent that and sometimes some sugar.

Wait, isn't this toxic?

Oh sure. I did this project with only light & temp sensing with a 9v and a cheap, continuous rotation servo. http://www.davidcdean.com/blinds-opener/

It's just another run of masturbatory tabloid raggery that's spiralled into something closely resembling comedy. Apple just does that to Gizmodo, and you learn to weather it. In the meantime, if you'd prefer some kind of real context and analysis, visit a site like Ars. You probably won't find a lot of complementary…

I'd say it's like any other form of communication... "know your audience". I probably wouldn't text my boss, "ur srvr is gtg". But maybe that's fine for your buddy (or not).

Any time I see how complex something like this is I'm amazed, but it really kinda scares the hell out of me. It just looks like a lot of stuff that could go wrong.

I have an S2, and while it's not an off-contract device (so the AT&T crapware is the worst part), waiting on updates for the device was awful. Next time around I'll definitely be doing a platform reference model.
