Not so sure about that. It's one of the hardest failures so far. It'll probably make lists including Atari's ET and the Ouya for quite a while.

He doesn't own it. He has an exclusive license to use it in art. Surrey NanoSystems Limited owns the patent on VantaBlack. Stuart Semple was so angry that Kapoor received that license that he had a blacker black material created and licensed it to anyone but Kapoor. When Kapoor obtained a sample anyway, Semple had a still blacker material created, to spite him.

They chose to comply with the request and become one of the browsers Putin can control. Not sure how Mozilla gets credit for anything good here.

Perhaps the article is over simplifying, but even if it isn't, to be able to calculate an upper bound for something we didn't have before is valuable. With more data, they'll be able to understand the range of spin speeds in similar objects, and how those correlate to mass and age. Once they have a solid baseline, they can start to look at outliers and try to understand why those are different. Science is a learning journey, not necessarily a destination.

Be the change you want to see. Start calling it that and see if it catches on.

It looks like a Prius, the battery can probably provide huge amperage for a short time for acceleration from a stop. I could be wrong though, I don't know the specifics of the electrical system on the car or the gun.

I use it. It's just as easy to set up and run as the other two, whether you use the tarball install, repo packages, or docker. While you're at it, look into Prowlarr also to manage your indexers and download clients so you don't have to make changes on all 3 manually. Then maybe look into Ombi to manage download requests. I like Overseer better, but it doesn't support music yet, unless something changed recently. The biggest hurdle is that in contrast to the TV and Movie categories, the file naming conventions for music downloads are not nearly as well standardized and enforced. Lidarr does a great job of shifting through and finding what it can, but I still get a lot more releases that require manual importing than with Sonarr or Radarr. Maybe I just need to tune the filters better. Discovery isn't really something Lidarr does yet, although there may be some forks working on adding it. Last.fm or listbtainz can help with that, or there are a bunch of self hosted media trackers that have recommendations built in.

Proud to be from the great state of 3i6nesota. You should come visit and explore our majestic waterfalls.

Are you making a crossover cable or installing it for the government? Those are the only places that I know of that A is used regularly. Nearly everywhere else uses B in my experience.

Now I'm just waiting for Netgate to announce an end to CE so I have a reason to move to OPNsense. I'm lazy and it works so I haven't taken the time to move yet. Weird for a company to EEE their own product.
