    Saudis vs Iran...who's going to win?

    Coincidentally, I have a little devil on my shoulder saying the same thing. Do you really think that? I am not so certain. But until the bombs start dropping, and the soldiers start charging, it's all speculation.

    Saudis vs Iran...who's going to win?

    Is anyone else paying attention to the clusterfuck developing over there? The shit-storm is starting to wind up, and it could get very ugly soon. Mosques are getting destroyed, ambassadors are being recalled, and the rhetoric is getting hot. I'm left wondering how much of this is a Psy-Op to...

    Star Wars The Force Awakens *SPOILERS*

    Say goodbye to your huevos? :lol: I was laughing left and right when it all started going down, not because of the violence but the craziness of it all. That was when the Peckinpah really took over for the Leone.

    Star Wars The Force Awakens *SPOILERS*

    He did a good job with it. He even has some of the cliches like loud eating sounds ;) But it's definitely not one to watch with mom :lol: It is somewhere between Sergio Leone's masterworks (like Once Upon a Time in the West) and Sam Peckinpah's ultra-violence (Wild Bunch).

    Star Wars The Force Awakens *SPOILERS*

    For the record, I saw Tarantino's 8th, and I liked it far more than this version of Star Wars. But I am a Spaghetti/Fagioli Western connoisseur, so that makes me very biased. Some people I know became so repulsed by the language, they walked out by the time the stage coach arrived at Minnie's...

    Lots of ideas come... almost all of them go away, a faded dream.

    CXB spectrum vs output

    By any chance do you know how he measured the "photon count"? That is, what gear was used? I didn't see it mentioned in the OP, and I am not familiar with this person, unfortunately. :(

    Ideas how to muffle continuous drip system totes

    That actually sounds more complicated (and messy) than what I was thinking, but if it works, GO FOR IT! Just make sure you do a small test first, before going all out.

    Ideas how to muffle continuous drip system totes

    Yes it is a good idea. When I fabricated gen-set enclosures, we'd use something akin to rockwool as the insulation, to muffle the noise of the generators that would be inside. Damn stuff works great! But one can use any "soft" material, really. Even shit-mix foam cushions from a local "foam...

    Ideas how to muffle continuous drip system totes

    It would be better to use something soft, like Rockwool. Place it in the corners of the room (near the ceiling, and it will cut down a lot of high-frequency "reflections". Why do you think Robert Johnson use to park his ass in the corner of the recording studio? To get mid-range BOOST. But there...

    CXB spectrum vs output

    The efficiency? O_o I don't think that is necessary. The camera just needs to register an 8-bit value for the RGB planes. I can then toss it in MATLAB, pull a row from the arrays and plot. So long as one has a stable reference (like a mercury lamp, or fluorescent), one can use the known lines to...

    Please help me to stop blowing my LED's

    How does one give fellatio to a LED? :mrgreen:

    CXB spectrum vs output

    Guesswork is a gamble. Why not make a simple spectral analyzer? I'm just waiting for my webcam so I can put mine in action, and start measuring the spectra of my LEDs. The plans for these devices are widely available on the net, too. https://publiclab.org/wiki/spectrometer I made mine from a...

    HERE'S A GOOD WATER QUESTION!!

    If it works for you, great. I only use sugar to feed yeast. ;) I also prefer growing in hydro. However, what is the equation which balances this sugar/chloramine reaction, if you know off-hand?

    HERE'S A GOOD WATER QUESTION!!

    There is no evidence I've seen to indicate chlorine from tap water is harmful to your garden. I've never had a problem in 20 years of growing all sorts of plants (not just the holy herb). If you can drink it, you can water with it. Then again, I'm in Canada, so...

    Sanders Introduces Major Clean Energy Jobs Package

    No... I don't think I missed those parts. I'm not sure what you mean by "environmental footprint", either. It is a good point that the cost of NatGas is far higher in Germany, making it an untenable choice. Are you aware of the subsidies Germans give to the RE producers, though? That is WHY...

    Sanders Introduces Major Clean Energy Jobs Package

    Why does it cost so much in Germany? I thought it was supposed to be cheaper to go "green"? http://wpui.wisc.edu/wp-uploads/2014/07/German-Experience-with-Promotion-of-Renewable-Energy.pdf Holy crap! They pay a helluva lot for residential...and they used to pay so little, in comparison around...
