Didn't Q predict this?

I thought this smelled phishy.

I imagine someone used a float as an index, once.

Brb, need to go change my admin password... Where do they get these guys?

Sadly it wasn't Max Headroom. How hackable is the EBS?

In that case I would trust the math, but I'd suggest that first we somehow classify the complexity of the scenarios before we jump straight to "9 out of 10 respondents voted "fake news" therefore it is fake news".

I don't know, perhaps the car is cyan, perhaps it is painted with a 3 stage pearl and most viewed from the same direction. Most people are not very sophisticated in their discerning of color. I cannot trust that the author is certain that the car is blue to start with. Pure statistics are not enough here.

Conspiracies can be entertaining, one's own living "thriller". Some conspiracies are true. Obsessing on them can be negative, one should be honest when assessing probability. They should not affect the psyche at lower than some pretty high threshold. I read a lot of Patterson, the plots seem pretty fantastical, then a private sub Captain cuts a reporter into pieces and buries her at sea...

Does he have a "Captain Nemo" complex? Would allow for all kinds of fantastical plots.

Not sure what happened to the link...

'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.'

I honestly cannot understand your sentiment, how can knowing something you are interested in exists be worse than not knowing at all?

Saw a headline yesterday that Oculus is coming out with a $299 headset next year.

Saw a commercial for AWN on TV this morning, seems like a pretty good idea.

I got mine from a recycler, he said they failed inspection after installation for scuffs and scratches. Mine produce very close to spec. I have read that most panels degrade at about 1% per year, the ones I got were 3 years old. I checked them all to see that the open voltage was close to the specs when I got them, worked out great.

Yes, most of the electricity I have generated has been what would have been tier 2 @ $.26 kWh, with the climate stuff going thru Sacramento atm I expect the price to go even higher soon.

I have built a system that cost just under $2k and should pay off in about 3-4 years (depending on battery lifetime). 2.4 Kw (8 panels) of used panels @ $.32/Watt, Charge controller, 3Kw inverter, transfer switch and 320ah@48v used Golf Cart Batteries. System is offgrid and supplies all my convenience outlets, kitchen and 240v circuits are on still on the grid. Panels are on top of free standing structures and being off grid permits are not required and only the transfer switch installation needed to be done by an electrician. Bonus is being offgrid it acts as a big UPS in a power failure.

I don't know if I'd call it usefull but get 4 or 5 people playing DJ while drinking and it can be amusing for a while.

I was too, they are under gaming tech or something. I found 3 but 2 were super wide aspect and the other wasn't a deal I couldn't beat any other day.

I wish we still had these. I run half my house "off grid", my inverter is putting out 61Hz and my old digital alarm clock runs fast.
