Pretty sure at least one pilot is paying reasonable attention to what the plane is doing in time and space at all times. The "autopilot" in a Tesla is doing far more than a planes autopilot. In both cases the operator needs to be in a position where he can take back control in a rapid fashion...

So pretty much worst scenario imaginable. So need to go through the entire process again? If possible a more secure location would be advisable next time.

Correct, that's Amazon.com

Flint, MI?

Actually that was for the 4300, looks like the 3300 model is available from US shipping to Canada, I used an adress in Quebec City:

Sorry Coug yes doesnt look like Amazon.com will ship over there, and these aren't tremendous value at full retail. Considered delivery to someone close to the border and then a daytrip over to pick it up?

At the $600 pricepoint I would suggest something like the Denon X3300W: It has pre outs so you can hook up outboard amps if needed. Down from $999 because this is last years model (no major changes) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HL8KYAY Of course $200 more will get you to the X4300W which can...

So the interesting thing there is that the victim (a reserve cop who drives full time) was the only survivor after he was run into by a guy being chased by the state police, apparently outside of department chase protocols. If they could have got some dirt on the reserve cop, could have muddied...

Probably this one, clearly Darwin weeding out the stupid: http://money.cnn.com/2017/06/20/technology/tesla-autopilot-fatal-crash-warnings/index.html "Joshua Brown's Tesla warned him seven times to put his hands back on the wheel before he plowed into a truck. A National Transportation Safety...

Saw this article and thought of you jtr: https://nyti.ms/2xaSJX8

Looking at a 2004 BMW 325i, it has the electro actuated clutch and 6 speed stick and paddles, constant mesh, no torque converter. Apprently one of the main fail points in terms of reliability.

"Houston's George Bush Intercontinental and William P. Hobby airports are closed until further notice, and Corpus Christi International is closed for at least 24 hours" I would say for flooding we haven't even seen the start of the worst yet. 50" of rain forecast in areas.

13 foot storm surge and up to 5 days of rain...

Hmm, so the Yoga 710 apparently doesn't have a digitizer, so Windows Ink wont work. Would have been nice if the sales guy knew that before selling the Office 365 + Bamboo pen bundle. I guess its time to take the pen back for $50 refund. Any funny business and we'll return the Yoga as well. The...

My mum picked up a Yoga 710 today. 11.6" 1080p screen with i5, 8gb of ram and 128gb ssd. $550 at Bestbuy. Pretty light and compact, however the first thing it did after initial bootup questions was to ask to download 4GB of OS updates. Windoes 10 - just pure garbage.

Was pretty crap viewing here basically overcast, we were at 70%. In 2024 however should have 100% at the house.

You should be fine assuming you'll be driving carts and not walking the course. Just swing and have fun.

Absolutely no concern at all. Any attempt to strike Guam would be met with such a devastating response even Kim has enough sense not to try it. Domestically Trump opened his mouth and said there was fault on both sides, when referring to the Charlottesville, Virginia situation where a white...

No, that was directed at sechs who said he had moved his NAS fine with the drives still mounted. Driving down the road with the nas nice and comfy belted in on a cushy seat would seem to be perfectly fine, but once you go to UPS or Fedex (ground or air) they are playing football with their...

Moved via UPS Ground?

I'd pull the drives and transport them in a pelican case separately. If you will be there in person to set it up take the drives as carry on and FedEx/UPS the chassis, or take it as checked baggage.

Is it just one of them? Return for replacement?

Throw a cpu instance of folding on there should be good for burn in testing.

In person or conference calls?

Would be a very nice cpu for a high performance FreeNAS box.

Seems like the rescue went pretty badly inside in addition to the burning foam problem negligence. http://abcnews.go.com/International/improbable-escape-apt-113-haunts-grenfell-fire-survivors/story?id=48566944

EPS foam boards gives good insulation for a given thickness, however it has to be covered to mitigate fire risk. Personally I'm considering Rockwool batts for my basement ceiling. Just friction fit betwen the joists. Maybe some EPS foam on the ground to cover the concrete slab (if I could go...

For the peeps deep into M.2 cards: three M.2s on board and bundled PCI card for 2 more. Looks like a decent heatsink solution as well. http://www.anandtech.com/show/11621/msi-x299-xpower-gaming-ac-motherboard

Is this on your MSI Gaming 7? IIRC my m2 slot shows as SATA 5 (defaults).

I got her the original S2 when it just came out. I could fit my Nexus 7 in my cargo shorts pockets, you had previously asked for 7" format tablets so wasnt sure if you were concerened about width.

My wife has the 9.7" S2, it does have a very nice display. The only negative I find is the lack of fast charging capability but I don't think anything of that era had that. The 8" definiely wont fit in a pocket like the 2013 Nexus can, just too wide with 4:3.

It'll be going into an MSI x99a Gaming 7 mobo with an i7 5930k. Sorry, to clarify, no standalone NAS involved.

Thanks Lunar, my 240 GB Sandisk SSD Plus Win 7 boot drive just took a massive shit. Did get some disk errors in the past week so created a recovery optical disc and a system image to another drive. However doesnt look like I can recover the image seamlessly without reinstalling Win 7 again...

Switched the drivers to basket in orientation. With the basket out and the drivers facing up the boxes were going walkabout on the concrete floor. With the driver facing the side the center of gravity is not ideal, just more vibration compared to the more centrally dense basket in config. I'm...

Nice, I prefer your style with the exposed heatsinks verus the seamless current style. My ultimate sub amp would be the SP2-12000 running on 240V at 30A. Four UM18s per channel. One day.

Good news all round then apart from the price bump. Looks like I got two from the good batch, and nothings changed with the baskets. What 4kw amp are you using? Speakerpower?

Yep already checked for mechanical noise, got two good units. No vent noise that I can hear. Apparently they've changed the driver cutout/basket in the next batch, in addition to increasing the pricing.

Yup in the basement theatre. Will prob build two more once they get back in stock.

Building a pair of Dayton UM18-22 subwoofers in sealed 4 cu ft flat packs. Behringer EP4000 for the amp, . Got one in operation so far, very impressive output for the money. About 100 pounds, have it sitting on a furniture dolly for ease of placement. Inverting the drivers to maximize enclosure...

"Owing to technical limitations, the size of a single volume is limited to 16, 108, or 200 terabytes (TB) on certain Synology NAS models1. ... Note: For more information on the limitation of each Synology NAS model, please refer to the items of Maximum Single Volume Size and Maximum Internal...

Apparently there is a max volume expansion limit of 108TB to be aware of in the DS1817+ as an example. Could come into play as drive density continues to increase. But certainly more flexibility than 16TB.

https://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?t=64944 Looks like you should be good for >16TB expansion with the more recent Synology units.

Its a real red drive. Price on that has gone up to $250, looks like the new deal this week is on the 4TB EasyStores down from $199 to $99, however at this size range you aren't guaranteed a specific drive type, like you are with the 8.

Interesting thing here is the ability to run a gpu in one of the pcie slots. Plus cpus that arent going to die out prematurely.

Best Buy has the 8TB WD EasyStor external USB 3 drives on sale for $180, which contains a WD Red drive. Limit of three per order.

With 60 PCI Express lanes on every sledgehammer, it will prob have the performance advantage with heavy I/O.

Dave, what's your cost per kWh from the utility (peak and off peak if you have time of use billing)?

Agreed not a big jump from 610 to 750. The D500 is definitely desirable as a best in class smaller sensor beast.

Friend of mine bought a D750, $1500 with portrait grip with the recent Nikon instant rebates. He's moving up from a D610 which he'll prob keep as a second body. I'm thinking we'll finally see a replacement for the D810 this summer.

Is it possible to use an app on the Apple TV to access the Comcast content? I know it can be done for Spectrum/Time Warner.
