That's literally what a pi-hole is.

Imma let you finish, but a gatling gun made of 16" guns is strictly better than a regular 16" gun.

For only $11.99 you can have this:

There are also LEDs with a built-in "candle flicker" effect. This teardown shows how it's done with two dies integrate into the LED package: the LED and an ASIC. They also demo a circuit using a small flicker LED and an amplifier to control a much larger LED.

Death ray? You're probably thinking of the giant laser that Professor Death built to scan grocery prices.

Inside this view of America there are two wolves:

• Eat your hamburgers, Apollo
• President wearing power armor

Now explain PartialEq, and why it's mandatory.

I went to the LA showing of "To The Journey", a crowdfunded documentary about the making of Star Trek: Voyager.

Several cast and crew were there, including Rick Berman, Robert Picardo, Tim Russ, and Garrett Wang.

Lead-based solder is preferred for high-reliability electronics (space, nuclear, military, etc.) because it's easier to rework, easier to verify by visual inspection, and it's not vulnerable to tin whiskers.

Here's the relevant safety guides from Stanford and MIT.

In short, if you do a lot of soldering, there are long-term occupational hazards from both lead oxides and rosin. Both guides agree that the main hazards are the fumes (workstation should have a fume extractor or suitable filter) and residue on your hands (wash hands with soap and water before eating).

I couldn't find any numbers on how much material is removed by washing, but every reference emphasized that soap and water are vitally important.

IF YOU DON'T RULE AND STONE, YOU AIN'T COMING HOME!

There's only one skeleton for me.

This wasn't their machine, it was one the school provided for the auditorium.

I saw that happen once in a big presentation.

There was a team of students presenting their work to ~200 people. Right in the middle, a pop-up says updates are finished and the computer needs to restart. It has a helpful 60-second countdown, but “cancel” is grayed out, so all they can do is watch.

I was only in the audience and I still have nightmares.

1. Do you know anybody from "Ohio"?
2. Have you ever been to "Ohio"?
3. Do you know anybody who has ever been to "Ohio"?

Bicycles are heresy confirmed.

Not the hero we need, but the hero we deserve.

WE'Z ZOGGIN' WORKIN' ON IT. WAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!

We are the Cube Rule. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your food's biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your food categories will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.
