Bump. I looked into freight shipping for this treadmill...not worth it (quoted $500 - $800 for basic freight service).

Gah, I even read over it to make sure I had everything listed. Mt Holly, NJ (a bit outside Philly, PA)

New out of box Epic A42T treadmill. Top of the line internet connected (Android-based) treadmill. Purchased it last year, but I have not been able to use it due to a knee injury. As this is a large and heavy item, local pickup or delivery only. I am willing to deliver it within reasonable...

^ This.

I currently fly a DC-10. It was designed in 1967 and first flown in 1970. The avionics on board are between 14 to 32 years old. No interference. Same with the A310 I flew for several years, and it was designed in 1977. I have yet to hear of a legit case of interference in my many years of flying...

The power off / stowed requirement is solely for evacuation purposes. Not very likely, but they want your attention and focus for the critical phases of flight: takeoff, approach, and landing.

Excellent System Shock reference.

There's a great iPad app out there for tracking the ISS. I've seen it four times so far without the app's help. Three times on night crossing the Atlantic Ocean from Europe to Canada and once over the Indian Ocean. It is pretty amazing to see.

Red light and speed cameras are not "police tools." They are usually installed, maintained, run, and ticketed through civilian companies that have no enforcement capability. For example, while I was deployed recently, my wife got a red light camera ticket in the mail. It only shows her...

"Generally." http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/08/apple-amazon-mat-honan-hacking/all/ Except when it is a big deal.

Almost done installing on my iPad.

Received a pass, thanks Robust!

Fuck. That's what I get for posting drunk. What he said.

http://www.amazon.com/Abraham-Lincoln-Vampire-Seth-Grahame-Smith/dp/0446563080 It is a fiction novel from a new genre of fun re-writes of classic books and history. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies was awesome. I need to go read ALVH.

No, it won't. It is a COTS product. That's "common off the shelf" for those of you who are not in the know.

Because the iPad is ~$500, a Class III EFB is tens of thousands of dollars, and the iPad outperforms the Class III EFBs in reliability and usability.

It was compiled with video editing software from many stills...as those lights cannot respond that fast.

Hm...the "128gb" version is >$500. How will they even make this practical?

I've had a few days to play with the new Asus UX31E-DH72. Damn, this thing is fast, light, compact, and looks good too. The only sketchy thing is the power adapter connection to the laptop. It is not as robust feeling as the Mac MagSafe power adapter.

I just ordered an Asus UX31E-DH72. Waiting for it to arrive today.

I plan to bring my crayons and pencils.

A smart police tactic in this case would be to release them with the statement that they all cooperated whether they did or not. It will ostracize them from their cohorts.

Hm, I just noticed that I've been on this forum longer than everyone in the thread, including MajorDomo... O.o

I have been using G+ for a few weeks. When I created my G+ profile, the contact fields were automatically set to "Only You" and I had to change them to "my circles." Some things were set to "everyone" but were very easy to change as I was typing in the information.

Incorrect. Only your name and gender are required to be public. Yes, the profile is public, but EVERY ITEM on it except name and gender can be individually set to public/extended circles/circles/etc. This functionality is built right into the editor...if you're adding your phone number, it...

When you edit your profile in Google+, each individual item has a very straightforward privacy setting. It is right there for you to change. However, you must share your name and gender with the world...there is no changing that. I'm already happier with Google's privacy implementation in the...

Did you even read the test? They tested both the iPad and iPad 2 in rapid decompression to 51,000 feet, which is far higher than most passenger carrying aircraft fly. I have gone through altitude chamber rides where a rapid decompression is done from sea level to 10,000 feet. This is...

Found it: http://www.generalaviationnews.com/2011/03/17/jeppesen-completes-ipad-rapid-decompression-test/

Nope, we use the Apple cases or other off-the-shelf brands. Most of us have the original iPad and a few have the iPad 2. I'll have to see if I can find the information on the flight testing that has already been done.

C-130s aren't real airplanes. Don't you know they already replaced you with a computer...and the Nav too?

This is exactly correct. Enroute charts are updated (worldwide) roughly every 56 days on different cycles. Terminal approach plates (the things that allow us to get your asses safely on the ground in dogshit weather) are updated every 28 days. There are 40 some odd IFR charts just...

I currently am a pilot flying widebody aircraft with ~200 people capacity. A lot of us use iPads. They are *EXTREMELY* robust and work absolutely fantastic in the cockpit and for enroute charts and terminal plates. I have the entire set of publications for safe flight, the aircraft technical...

+10 for alliteration.

Yanno, back in the day... ...There were no momentary power buttons. There were no ATX power supplies. There wasn't even Ctrl-Alt-Del. Well, ok, maybe there was, but there wasn't any Alt-F4 to save your day. And sometimes you could hard lock a computer and not even be able to Ctrl-Alt-Del...

Not a fan of MIRs. Never have been, never will. Best MIR I ever received was on my new Verizon phone...where the person selling it to me applied it instantly to my purchase instead of making me mail everything in. w00t! $100 off my phone ($50 instant / $50 MIR applied instantly)

Looking like a very impressive mod.

Newsflash. There are two buttons down there (power and reset). Same buttons / functions as the ones on your cases. Bench testing, etc. Gigabyte feature. The clear CMOS is the jumper pins just like other Gigabyte boards. Just unfortunate placement of the silkscreen. Make sense?
