    that is the last mile issue. The fiber is fast enough for fast speeds but most homes are one slow copper wires the last mile from a telco slam and no one wants to pay to upgrade those.

    Boeing's Space Taxi to Use More Than 600 3D Printed Parts

    I hope they use layers of silcone like in motherboards for sheering weight so that when the water vapor or oxygen molecules hits the components they don't deform and crease instead of bouncing back like rubbermaid. grin.

    Cracks in SpaceX’s Falcon 9 Fuel Pumps Could Pose Threat to Astronauts

    musk keeps trying to work with systems that someone else built and force them to do more than they are designed to instead of dreaming bigger because getting funding for building what makes sense instead of what you can sell as an idea to a money market fund broker is very hard. The fuel...

    Why PC Game Downloads are so Big

    I tried to think of a couple games that did this and all of the mmo ones had problems. Stwor had a separate high resolution texture pack during the beta that bioware pulled at the last minute before launch.

    Gaming Hardware Needs to Grow Up

    I used a lighted keyboard at work a couple times when working on screens and I needed to control what colors I was seeing on the screen.

    Police Department Loses Years Of Evidence In Ransomware Incident

    actually once it was removed it was not even evidence anymore. If the municipal agent collects and it ends up some where else they have to collect new evidence. Once it is out of their control they can not say it has not changed. Through I have to wonder if cloud storage is even legal for...

    I might handle my phone then eat food so I wash the oils and dirt off my phone in the sink on a regular basis so that when I am touching it, it is mostly clean.

    How Many Frames Per Second Can The Human Eye Really See?

    they quote random numbers and say this is what people perceived while taking the numbers out of context. Meaning you walk up to a painting in a mesueme and starting with the assumption it is not modern art, rule of thirds in a well done pieces leads your eyes around the image. If the image was...

    7700K for Delidding!

    as far as the jb weld that is chemical epoxy and works by binding the surface metal to surface metal... I don't think the metal on top of the core is thick enough not to risk having metal dissolved too deep and etching into the layers of gates... some how having a path of least resistance end up...

    BOOM! Headshot

    the military uses modified laser tag guns for the same reason people started with the premise that video games teach you to shoot better.

    7700K for Delidding!

    They put the lids on so that when you tighten the heat sink down it does not crush the cpu die which is organic substrate. I would not be surprised if the tim they use is machine applied in a clean room with little to no oxygen. Most people use silver nitrate which bonds to oxygen molecules so...

    Does Anyone Know The Story Behind This Giant Computer?

    That is someone's idea of joke. You can see the top is wire trace which makes sense for 1960 level computer one level but the wall is forced perspective. Meaning it is totally fake.

    Folding Surface Phone Teased In New Microsoft Patent

    pretty sure that is a design patent or process patent. Those are limited to exactly what you see and still can not use prior art. The ribbon cable, like in your printer, is likely what they looked at in designing it but it is very likely the paid attention to prior art since many companies are...

    Samsung Might've Just Leaked The Galaxy S8 In This Ad

    well the glass moving from the desk to the phone means that the phone was at least partially a computer model. there were two buttons on the one side so they may simply be moving the physical buttons to the sides of the display to not distract from watching movies on the phone.

    Cool 'Bullet vs. Glass at 150,000 FPS' Video of the Day
