Please don't feed the troll. Anyone using the phrase "you people" should be automatically put on some kind of slashdot-posting probation.


doh!

agreed, this movie was pretty terrible, though that long take toward the end was pretty cool. It wasn't worth sitting through the rest of it, though.

Well the how of the burning is significant. Think of the smoke produced burning oil in a Diesel engine des vs lighting a pan of it on fire in your garage. The combustion could be just slightly bad instead of extra bad. Otherwise, agreed. Better to turn it into smoke and CO2 than kill the sea critters.

Have prices gone up? I bought a 1KWh pack last year for less than $900 shipped. Granted it wasn't a high-performance 10C pack, but it would probably work fine for something like this.

VW is one of the few makes for which you can get your own fully functional scanner (not just OBDII) for a relatively reasonable price: VAG-COM (I didn't come up with the name). It lets you interact with pretty much everything in the car with their hardware dongle and software and a laptop. It's still a little bit steep for what's essentially a serial-to-USB converter, but I suppose you're mostly paying for their reverse-engineering time.

I tried some Feit Electric brand ones in my can fixtures attached to an electronic Lutron dimmer with no luck. The dimmer must have some kind of check for load or something because it would just blink its indicator. That bums me out because my wife insists on having a dimmer (exactly that dimmer) in that room which means we're stuck with 360W of halogens for now.

agreed, iperf is the best way to test link speeds, not hacking up some RAM drive test. One nice thing about the ram drive thing is you can test other parts of the stack, though.

We don't pee in your toilet... so... um.... don't swim in our pool. no wait

sorry... very obscure. The reference was def 1 from here. Having to explain it makes it not funny, but if it wasn't funny to begin with then nothing is lost.
