Tru dat!

I agree RatShack has gone downhill, and it's especially unfortunate that they no longer sell amateur radio gear. But I think it's actually been improving of late. They carry way more components than they used to and they finally took my advice and put them in drawers. They still have solder, RF adapters, antennas, some basic computer parts, kits, books, arduinos, basic stamps, 100 in 1 electronics sets (I've already bought one for my 2 year old, can't get 'em started too early!) Radio Shack is a hell of a lot better than nothing and let's hope this positive trend continues.

Thank god we still have Radio Shack. I went in recently and found they were even selling arduinos. I've bought a bunch of components there for my electronics projects. It's not Fry's, but at least there's one 10 minutes away from my home in Nowhereville Vermont.

Who the fuck cares? Who would EVER use this stupid thing? I have flown a hundred times. They let you carry on a full size carry on bag, which is pretty big, AND something else that will fit under the seat; I usually choose a backpack. You can fit enough stuff in those two things for a week long trip. And no sweatshirt is going to hold a fraction of what you can fit in a full size upright suitcase. Why the fuck would I want to wear an ugly sweatshirt crammed full of hard pokey junk, look leotarded, and be uncomfortable for my entire flight? Is this a joke?

Let me be the first to say "BARDZO DOBRZA! ACTA JEST GUWNO!" ("Very well done! ACTA is shit!")

Not to say that entering Iran at all is a good idea if you're American.

Could you please at least Google it before you write a post on a topic you obviously know NOTHING about and cause the entire world to be misinformed?

Wake me up when I can order a dozen from Digikey.

This is the worst idea yet. Worse than broadband over power lines, worse than that idea about using gas pipes. I thought the whole point to discontinuing analog TV service and freeing up that bandwidth was to provided wide area Internet. *facepalm*

Is the magic missing technology required to construct a functional space elevator?
