I’ve wanted to leave Comcast for most of my adult life. Monopoly, not loyalty, keeps me here. The moment there’s a real alternative, I’m gone. I wouldn’t even compare plans. Walking away would feel like karmic retribution for years of contract games and endless rate increases on what is...

Love it when hardware companies move into the subscription service. #Cricut Certainly will be sustainable.

But steel is cheap. Lithium isn't

https://www.utilitydive.com/news/energy-vault-rackscale-partner-data-center-battery-storage/735796/ Please look into what they're up to. It's very cool and beautifully simple. Also it is kinetic, as the entire concept is based on a flywheel

Agreed, that's the entire concept of what they're doing. A brick will last 100 years and can easily be replaced. (Their bricks are comprised of rammed earth) they use solar to lift it, then a generator produces energy via gravity. It's a simple system that will last longer than we will...

They're still going strong! Here's the current project they're up to https://www.utilitydive.com/news/energy-vault-rackscale-partner-data-center-battery-storage/735796/

Energy Vault should be mentioned here as an opportunity for viable storage at a macro scale. They basically move giant bricks around to distribute energy in response to demand. Who needs a power wall when a 10 ton brick has the potential energy to power your house for a day? It's not...

This sounds very similar to the art of distillation! Yeast is a magical organism. It's all about finding the right environment to the thrive. As a distiller, the same rules apply. If it's bread or whiskey, ensuring that your yeast is living it's best life is most critical. Post processing...

Agreed, it is very meh. If you'd like a good case that's magsafe compatible and a wallet, Peak Design did it right. While pricey, it's worth the investment. The design for the wallet is far more secure as well. While I'm an android devotee, I bought one for my wife last year. She has...

I've had two generations of the Samsung Flip. I love it in every way and I will certainly be buying the next one. I just wanted to say, the protective layer on the Flip and likely the same for google, is some form of vinyl, not glass. I know this because I work with many adhesives and I...

Yes very much so, one of the best parts of it! We only used internet for the art. Theres nothing more refrshing than being freed from your phone for a week. Internet access would certainly bring a negative influence.

Interesting fact, Gerlach is the only town within proximity to Burning Man festival. During festival peak, 70k+ people are present in the middle of the desert. I have no doubt they're using that data for this. I was an art installer at Burning Man this year, arriving a week prior to the...

I'm certainly not concerned by this. I've always assumed this would be a standard issue. I can develop apps for my own personal use and I'm relying on the same verification as Samsung within the Android ecosystem. Is it surprising? More interestingly, any reason why Ron's article continues...

I appreciate you conclusion, but couldn't you compare this mac to a comparable pc in the first place? I appreciate 32 g ram and the i9 but based on Apple prices, the ram alone costs more than my Lenovo Yoga 720 with i7 2.8 bus, gtx 1060 and 16 g ram cost me two years ago. Apple can offer a...

A few more pixels, a new, incompatible charger, and no headphone jack. I'm pretty sure they just made watching movies harder...I've already dealt with a Surface, I'm so glad they're keeping the overpriced tablet market alive! Absolutely worth the $800 price tag.
