Some "calamity" like a refinery maintenance?

$4.29 here. Up 10 cents in the last two weeks. Apparently we're not getting Winter gas yet.

Looking at recent reviews, the only thing that was disproven was that an MFi cable would be required. That said, the cable that ships with the iPhone 15 Pro models is apparently limited to USB 2.0 speeds. That's a cold slap in the face for a phone that costs $1,000 (unlocked).

Yet it appears that the additional speed is only available on the Pro models and then, perhaps only with an MFi certified cable.

The big attraction is likely having options when it comes to accessorizing your phone. No longer are you limited to what products come with Lightning plugs or forced to use some sort of adapter cable as has too long been a necessity. Here's a YouTube video that explores some of the...

You have set yourself up with a criterion that isn't likely to happen in the next ten years, much less 2-3. All current BP measuring schemes require some manner of cuff (sphygmomanometer). Convention further dictates that the measurement be taken at your heart's elevation (during a Pledge of...

A new thread would be appropriate as the alternatives probably won't involve Anik F2 or Canadian satellite TV in general.

I don't buy things that I don't think I can perform simple repairs or upgrades on.

Expect more international programming to invade in the wake of the Hollywood strikes.

What is VR's killer app that has driven its adoption thus far?

Line of sight is more about absorption than deflection.

The modulation is different enough to make reliable reception a much more likely proposition. Without that, reception is likely to remain so-so no matter how good your antenna setup is. The repacks have seen to that.

I don't understand why you think I don't understand. ;) How are you going to generate interest if you don't expose the market to something. No market can survive on the few who can justify buying a headset until the justification becomes a lot easier. The chicken and the egg is perhaps...

You also need the proper parts and that's a lot harder to get than the necessary tools.

In Oregon, gambling machines are mostly limited to bars and pubs as preventing use by minors is a very strict rule.

That's quite a manacle.

Most every eat-in pizza joint in my area has a modest arcade. There are still major arcades as well but they've taken a beating at the hands of gaming boutiques.

I'm not adding or changing conditions. I'm wondering why, if VR gaming is so awesome, that I've never seen a VR setup at a video arcade. It isn't VR if your just sending a Sheldon bot to take your place at the console.

I watched a YouTube video last night from someone who was testing interoperability of components (swapping cameras, displays, etc). It is truly remarkable how they managed to put so many screws in such a small package without making the phone upgradable. The upshot of the experiment is that...

There isn't anything you can do about the spot beam's power levels other than point a finger. Doesn't the COM3000 give you all the signal strength details through the management interface that a conventional receiver would? That seems much easier than taking the system offline to plug in an...

There isn't any point to trying to differentiate between conus and spot beams coming from the same slot when it comes to aiming. If you're trying to figure out which spots you're in the cone of you may be just as well off to use Satbeams and not have to do a physical site survey.

The video simulates standing in front of a console and that's just silly. I'm talking about games where you are immersed in VR as I expect Star Wars Pinball approximates.

Who needs Chuck Lorre, Jon Favreau, Greg Berlanti or Shonda Rhimes if you can emulate them? Actors (and politicians) have been able to take control of their visage to court. Writers have a much steeper hill to climb as their "product" doesn't have a human face.

No, I mean like in a video game arcade. Pong was in the arcades before it became something you could connect to your TV.

How does this differ from AI-generated writing in the style (likeness) of a writing staff?
