Yes, this is the world Intel fanboys have been awaiting when they crow about the imminent demise of AMD in every benchmark suite I've seen.

I buy all AMD no matter what, just to keep the CPU market a market, not a monopoly. Sadly, since their fab spin-off and the downsizing of their R&D department, they probably are in a death spiral now...

journalctl -f... use whatever tool you want. Just like using tail -f, but eebil because it contains systemd code?

It's the meta-news.

Kit contents:

One (1) bear-poking stick. Yew laminate with polyurethane coating.
One (1) pair running shoes. New Balance model 990v3.

Please specify shoe size in the ordering drop down menu.

Ours has a whole section with lots of drawers of resistors, transistors, 555 timers and other miscellaneous silicon. They've also got tons of electronics kits, irons, tips, solder, wire strippers, etc.

You could easily walk in there with no electronic equipment/parts and walk out with everything needed to build "something" from bare parts, or buy a kit or a raspberry pi (!).

It's super close to an existing Sprint store, so I'll be sad to see it close down :(

Best Buy.

To their credit, I've bought quite a bit of that stuff there because I was in the groove and didn't want to wait a few days to get back to what I was hacking on. Why do that, when I could get to Radio Shack and back in less than 30 minutes? And pay shipping?

I paid 1.50 for a 5 pack of 220 Ohm resistors just last week when I ran out. The price for similar quality on Digikey is 6-7c each. But shipping is a minimum of $2.80. And I could have them right then from RS.

Last month it was 100uF caps, and before that a 555 timer, and before that, a roll of desoldering braid. All marked up like crazy, but worth it to me at the time.

I may buy the bulk of parts in larger lots from online shops, but Radio Shack is great for filling in the gaps.

Data analysis toolpak!

Great for doing simple exploratory stats before you pull out the big guns. An equivalent is completely missing in Libre.

But how do you install them when you can't load the chrome web store?

Wow, it's nice.

It's still missing a lot of features, but unlike the "new Opera," they seem to have the intent to add them. Many of the nicer interface touches are there... the nice sidebar layout, the view panel, the ability to put tabs on the bottom, show/hide images (no cached only mode yet) and a nice view panel with zoom slider that zooms all the page content.

Shockingly stable for a tech preview release. I like :)

Yep, stopped using it after 12.17 became too crufty with new sites... the new versions had no reason to compel you to use them over Chrome. I mean, you're Chrome-based, and adopt what is essentially the Chrome interface, why would I go out and download you over Chrome?

I hope it has mouse gestures by default and that lovely fit to window width feature of the old Opera.

"Canadian military officer Lieutenant Colonel James "Buster" Sutherland Brown developed an earlier counterpart to War Plan Red called Defence Scheme No. 1 on April 12, 1921. Maintaining that the best defense was a good offense, "Buster" Brown planned for rapid deployment of flying columns to occupy Seattle, Great Falls, Minneapolis, and Albany. With no hope of holding these objectives, the idea was to divert American troops to the flanks and away from Canada, hopefully long enough for Imperial allies to arrive with reinforcements. Defence Scheme No. 1 was terminated by Chief of the General Staff Andrew McNaughton in 1928, two years prior to the approval of War Plan Red."

From the wikipedia page on war plan red... they did it first :).

Boom! Headshot!

Well done sir.

It's so automatic owners can pretend like they're really driving, not just riding in the car.
