  2. Re: ftdi? sigh ;( on Hands On With the First Open-Source Microcontroller (hackaday.com) · · Score: 1

    there's about a half dozen other USB ttl serial chips out there I can think of off the top of my head

    I wont incorporate FTDI in my designs anymore as well, not when maxium, ti, prolific, microchip, NXT and ST all make the same durn thing (and for cheaper as well in large quantities)

    on how far down the rope you want to go

    if you want to learn the core original idea's of modern programming as some academic / archaeological adventure, yes small talk has a lot to offer as its a very influential language

    if you think you are going to magically going to get 100x better at C# or java just by reading some generic summaries of how it works, then no you will not benifit in any such way ... cause the best of such an old language has already been extracted and implemented decades before hand and you already us it

  7. what, wait a second on Automatic Brakes Stopped Berlin Truck During Christmas Market Attack (dw.com) · · Score: 0

    The system was reportedly engaged after sensing a collision.

    The regulation was adopted to reduce the number of rear end collisions by trucks.

    So, ... this system reduces the number of rear end collisions by slamming on the breaks after it hits something?

  8. pretty much the same thing on your drivers licence that you flash to random people all the time whenever you want to buy hooch, tobacco, enter a club, get pulled over for speeding, or enter a titty bar

    for pretty much the same reason's, to make sure stephen didnt swap photo's from leon's ID (course nowdays its much harder, but even 20 years ago it required a razor blade and not much else) cause in the real world, it takes a bit more than a wink and a pinky swear to do such activities as produce and distrubuite items for human consumption dipshit

  11. it poops it out from a slow convener belt in the back (in order to not damage fragile items)

  12. 600m in the red with 2.something billion in projected losses

    that's why I ask, is it party town before the burning of Rome, or do they have something really worth while

    I have never ONCE bitched at apple for having early defects in products

    Company X comes out with brand new device Y and your a fucktard for buying it as soon as you can, and whine there's something wrong with it, that's your penility for being a fucktard

    doesnt matter who makes it, samsung, sony, apple, HP whirlpool, you are stupid for jizzing your pants over something that has hours to weeks of mas use, that WILL AND DOES have a fuckup in it

    buy it 6 months later when its working right and 40% cheaper
