Clickspring is a great maker channel that feels like 20-40 minute long episodes of how it’s made (kinda)

He has playlists of his projects and he’s been making a period correct reproduction of the antikythra mechanism using the same bronze age tools of the ancient makers who created the original.

EEVBlog is fun if you know electronics and want to learn more. He does a phenomenal series on parts and pieces. He’s a layman’s wikipedia on “what’s an FPGA and why should I know?” As opposed to the more electrical engineering centric sources out there where you already need to know a lot to understand it. He’s entertaining and high energy (honestly he strikes me as someone with self managed bipolar or something. That’s the vibe I get since I’ve been friends with at least 4 others who present similar to Dave)

Tasting history, 18th century cooking, and table of the gods are both great historical cooking channels. Some of them will give the recipes for free for you to try at home.

Huygen’s optics is a channel run by a understated genius. He explains how optics and optical manufacturing works and he runs his own precision optics workshop in his basement. He once made a spirit bubble level for his pool table with an internal radius of like I’m (meaning it’s like carving a 15cm diameter circle out of a 16m wide sphere) so his level had like sub-arcsecond resolution iirc? A human hair underneath it would throw it off scale.

Applied Science is another amazing Science & engineering channel. He made his own back scatter computed tomography machine with a lazy Suzan, an X-ray tube, an Arduino, and a X-ray phosphorescence developer box/camera.

That’s young 😞 RIP you played a huge role in my childhood and those of millions of others…

Embrace, extend, extinguish. You just described all 3

I’ve noticed a massive overlap between trans and telecom. Even before the internet, telephone phreaks were more often than not trans or trans adjacent, or just straight up eggs before it was cool.

I can’t think of a more natural monopoly than a fucking river.

How do you laissez faire the Thames? Dredge a second polluted scar in the earth right next to it? Why isn’t it already nationalized?

I have a ship of Theseus rig. It’s the same case I got from my dad when he first built his PC in 2014. I’ve replaced every part in this thing at least once. I tend to keep HDDs until they don’t hold enough for me to want them anymore. I use ZFS to manage my bulk storage drives so Im never concerned when a drive dies. A hot spare starts resilvering right away.

My favorite thing about conspiracy theories is they keep coming true if you wait long enough 😬

“Conspiracy theory” was also a term invented by alphabet agencies to discredit real rumors about intelligence agency work that leaked

For reference most lithium ion battery packs are rated for around 3000 charge discharge cycles. I’m not sure about bike batteries though, especially with the range issue being a concern for you. That’s the number I see on data sheets for lion packs though.

I worked as a contractor at my last job and they charged $1.25/km, or $1.50 when gas was above $1.50/L.

My current company reimburses me at $0.67/km for my personal vehicle if I drive it for work.

Those 6 year olds were hiding weapons under their toys!

Don’t forget having pictures, videos, and emails from high ranking and powerful people diddling kids provided by the Mossad agent Epstein…

directs you to a 10 year old thread that has nothing to do with your current problem. The moderator will ban you if you point this out.

No, they hire nobody and pretend they’re hiring so shareholders perceive them as successful and growing. The work from that role gets distributed among the employees who are still working there, eventually leading them all to work 70-80 hours a week and feel like they’re doing 3 jobs at once the entire time.

All of the best employees left, or those who don’t have sick family members or their own “pre existing conditions” so the company is left overworking under-performers and mediocre employees who couldn’t get hired elsewhere, or who are severely burned out trying to afford their wife’s chemo

He definitely picked the guy that diddled me and my brother when I was 4 and my brother was 18 months old

Humans are shit at being random: an experience

If there’s no killing then there need to be better ways to scare them off or manage them besides flares. I made the mistake of building my first base in the middle of a hammerhead rut arena so like 3 of them are trying to smash each other directly under my tadpole dock at any one time. Just some kind of field that makes them uncomfortable so they go somewhere else I can place on my base, or make the sonic destabilizer gun actually scare them off like it does for smaller threats.

I guess one benefit is rust development often doesn’t use bleeding edge version for everything, where you pull the entirety of crates.io through your machine when you open your IDE. From what I’ve seen most projects use == versions and lock files.

I don’t know enough about rust though. Could an attacker change historical crate versions to a payload and then cargo pulls them because they changed? Or will cargo only pull an update if you change to a different version on your machine?

The best part of this infographic is how it’s out of date within 48 hours typically

The French would call it a high tension change in your life…
