I think there's an issue in assuming that it's a problem. IT gets done, people get paid. There's nothing that says that there should be an equal balance of the sexes in any profession or field other than certain (sometimes questionable) cultural biases.
The hard part is the rifling. I think there has to be some neat way to do that with modern technology that would make that a home-build option. Some kind of small robot that would make its own way along the barrel or something.
I don't believe that the Pi is up to the job. I did have an HDMI dongle that could do the job but it went "poof" after a week and DealExtreme lost it on the return.
It does. I reach it often. Worrying about forking is often a premature optimization that only the OCD inflicted worry about on most modern systems. The same with those who worry about cat|
I try to avoid shell scripting wherever possible (and when it's not a trivial script). That it has its foot in both the command line and programming leads to some oddness. Unless you are very careful, it's easy to produce something which may run fine in a simple case but there are edge cases where things either break or introduce security holes. Spaces in filenames can break things, carefully constructed filenames can cause data loss or worse. Much better, in my opinion, to use a proper programming language where variables are variables and treated as such explicitly.
Some of them are. Most? I'd like to see a breakdown of that. I recall reading that TSA fees alone recently went up double digits of $ and since I consider the TSA not to be legitimate in the first place, that's a good place to start.
When the LEDs were being half-wave rectified, they were probably being overdriven at peak. When you used the bridge rectifier, you were doubling the power that was going through them.
There's probably a resistor there anyway. Power is probably 5V, possibly 12, 3.3 or anothe r value and LEDs are typically 2.2V so you need to drop that with a resistor. Make it a little bit bigger and the light is dimmer.
You're not incorrect. I don't know why we're not seeing a move to this already. It wouldn't even be too hard to retrofit to existing installations if they're wired properly.
Though the heatsinks on the lights don't get as hot as incandescents. I can unscrew an LED immediately with bare fingers where an incandescent needs to be allowed to cool. Still, wasted energy...

I think you just proved his point.
Or the sea levels failing to rise as predicted or the temperature failing to rise as much as predicted or... Works both ways, you see.

It's also very modular which means that it's not hard to have an individualistic one-of-a-kind gun

Or, (can't believe I missed this) Windows 0Ah
Abbreviated as "W0Ah" and endorsed by Keanu Reeves
Or gone hex: Widows A
Or maybe Windows 0x0A
I have a cheap $18 dongle I bought off of Ebay. Seems to work well enough.

Of course, a #!/bin/bash makes that irrelevant anyway.

They could always land at Meig's. Oh wait... F'ing Daley.

I just bought return tickets to England. $293 flight, $768 taxes and fees. So yeah...

He wouldn't. I was talking about the government agencies, not the executive or legislature.
On the downside, you did miss a great opportunity to play out a Monty Python sketch.
How do you make that atomic?

But Earth can't replicate.
