Crappy upstream kernel support on alternative boards is probably why the Raspberry Pi is king of this kingdom. I chose to forgo all the cheaper options from China for a recent project, and instead go with (considerably)…
"He's probably crazy to be trying it in Vermont though," is an understatement. The largest city in Vermont, Burlington, only has a population of ~40,000. He's proposing a city half the size of Burlington in the middle…
Mazda actually had a Mazda2 EV prototype with a rotary range extender that they unveiled in 2013. Not sure what ever happened with it, though.
Mazda eventually got their engines to consistently last over 100,000 miles with the Renesis in the RX-8. The biggest thing is lubricating the seals; as a result all Mazda rotaries burn a little bit of engine oil to…
The reason Mazda struggled with the rotary engine is due to what their application was. Rotaries work most efficiently and reliably when run for long periods of time (hours) at a consistent RPM. Vehicles with…
I have to run an old version of iTunes to have my 4th gen iPod even sync properly. :\",
I'm on the spectrum and don't feel any emotional disconnect unless my blood sugar drops (usually from forgetting to eat or sleep.) When that happens, it's like part of my brain just... goes to sleep. I'm still awake,…
ICE cars will go first. Most personal cars are only driven a small mileage per day and don't need to carry much weight. Needing to go more than 350 miles in a day, or needing to tow a trailer are statistical outliers to…
For me, #1 is the extra bandwidth cost (I have a crappy internet connection), #2 is malware, and #3 is tracking. My crappy internet connection is what originally pushed me to block ads. Everything's a lot more speedy…
When I got diagnosed with manic depression, I did some research on my family medical history going back several generations. Many of them through two lineages (my father's mother's family, and my mother's father's…
