Seriously, it exists. Not that I actually used it, I basically booted it up once after purchase to be sure it worked (I didn't go through the setup crap), turned it off, upgraded the RAM and immediately put Kubuntu on it (now replaced with Netrunner).
Starter edition - the (rightfully) forgotten Windows 7.
(I did have the hots for that redhead way back then)
I design homes as a hobby - how would I build my own? Most of my designs - except for the most "modernly practical" use DC power for at minimum lighting.
The one thing I need to work out - exactly how do we make a Lava Lamp work efficiently on DC power....
got rid of the stupid overlay advertisement Slashdot puts on my phone that keeps me from ever being able to read the very bottom of anything....
Of course I live in Texas.
I've seen snow stay on the ground a maximum of one day since I've moved to Houston, about five years ago.
That Trihawk was pretty cool. It's downfall was catering to the wrong market, I can tell from the video. I don't know how $15,000 scales to 1984, I would have to look it up, but the fact they were calling a specialty car demanding a premium instead of a budget mobile like the Elio probably is why nobody knows what it is today.
Cherry 2000, haven't seen that movie since what? 1991? I liked it back then, not sure if I would now or not.
I've been worried about it getting the Tucker treatment myself.
Hey, the Elio is more Sci-Fi cool and less of the Steve Urkle flair associated with the Smart Car.
I've had a real motorcycle. At 74 MPG it didn't get the efficiency this thing does, I also wound up wet and cold at work in February a lot. I might just get another motorcycle, but my work commute will be with this thing.
in my cars.
There are two cars I want right now (well, one is being released soon).
1. The Elio for getting to work and back. Perfect for getting me and my backpack the 30ish miles there and back, and even good for going to lunch with a coworker. Excellent fuel mileage, and unlike a Smart Car (which doesn't really get that great of fuel mileage considering) I wouldn't be concerned about having to defend my manhood every time I stepped out of it or worry about random strangers trying to give me a wedgie for driving it.
2. The Subaru Outback as my vacation and haul the family around ride. The ability to easily carry many bicycles, kayaks, luggage, and people offroad, at good high cruising speeds Not to mention, great gas mileage for a rugged/versatile vehicle.
I don't care about data platforms, just the ability to interface with what's there. The Elio would let me put whatever I wanted in there and tie it to the stereo, I'm guessing a Nexus 9 would be perfect. The Subaru support Bluetooth audio so I'll put my Nexus 9 in there too!
Mod parent up!
I've been saying this since I was a we little lad. We do the jobs we like. I like I.T. I like computers, I have since I was a kid. My sister on the other hand liked crops and animals, she works in agriculture.
How is it that science can explain how and why our hormones and evolution drive men and women to different interest, yet science (or in reality H.R.types) can't accept the findings of science?!?!
Slashdot under current management is just pandering to the H.R. and equal outcome everything crowds.
Think we could lobby to have the traditional green changed to more of a lavender color?
Come to think of it the entire
Redundant huh? I would argue the article itself is at this point.
Why aren't they bitching about trash collectors, construction workers, and cattle wranglers being mostly men?
One of my favorite things about the job I referenced is most of the people we hired were in their late teens or early 20's and were eager to learn and prove themselves. To this day it's still the age group I like to work with the most. Of course I expected a lot of churn, I would have been disappointed at my trainees if they didn't ditch that place after some training.
I love interactive documentation - I find myself hovering my cursor on a regular basis on stuff I'm unsure of and I'm always disappointed when it doesn't work.
Anyone can make an omelet with eggs. The trick is to make one with none.
