Found this while Geocaching. Maybe a bomb? by Flowtosin WTF

[–]monsieurlee 31 points32 points ago

It's a bomb.

ain't that the truth? by sh4ftin humor

Cingular RAZR V3

Member of the European Parliament

You know, if you are going to just copy and paste jokes, can you at least 1) update it for modern time and 2) make it geographically correct? Cingular have not been around since 2007 and never existed in Scotland.

I know EstroJen from the bay area reddit meetups. I can confirm that is indeed her costumes.

Help, please--plans fell through and need recommendations... by fartingpigletin frankfurt

[–]monsieurlee 1 point2 points ago

a single person can go for dinner and not feel too out of place?

Frankfurt is a very business-y city, so a lot of travelling business folks. You won't be out of place.

Maker Faire this weekend! Who's going? by traumazuluin bayarea

[–]monsieurlee 0 points1 point ago

i wrote this for someone else:

For those of you driving: Park at the Franklin Templeton Lot. It is free and a short 15 min walk (or take a shuttle). Take 101 and exit Hillsdale Blvd.

http://makerfaire.com/bayarea/2012/parking.csp

I've been parking there every year. Beats waiting in a huge line to get into the fairground parking lot AND paying $17.

Also, by exiting @ Hillsdale, you avoid the giant line of traffic backed up from the exit to 92 to 101, going as far as 3rd st exit on 101. Traffic for Maker Faire is not joke.

Disclaimer: I don't know how quickly the Franklin Templeton lot fills up. In past years I've arrived at 9:30AM and there is plenty of room and no backups to get into the complex.

TLDR get there early, exit Hillsdale, park @ Franklin Templeton lot.

Are 3TB drives trustworthy yet? Details ahoy. by LetsTrySciencein hardware

[–]monsieurlee 1 point2 points ago

I have 5x 3TB Hitachi 7200RPM in a Synology DS1511+. I bought them a few months before the Thailand flood. No problems so far.

With that said, all drives fail.

Cool concept RV by reddronin pics

[–]monsieurlee 0 points1 point ago

That is why they are called CONCEPT.

Same reason people brainstorm. When you brainstorm you put down any crazy, harebrained idea that you think of, then you go there and start to whittle down by junking the obviously insane and start trying to see what you can work with and what you can't. When you finally get down to something that you think is workable, then you bring in the engineers, and work with them and see what is ACTUALLY workable.

You said below that the wheel "have no torsional strength without tensioned spokes". That is 100% true today. But guess what? Technology improves. Material science improves. What is impossible today is unlikely in 10 years, maybe in 20 yearss, possible in 30, and doable in 40.

People who used to illustrate science fiction pulp fictions also drew flashy shit that were impractical for their time. Imagine what they will say if they are still alive to see the Space Shuttle.

In Mountain View: Do not try to avoid 101N traffic by going through Shoreline Exit and coming back on 101 by ramp. Police is ticketing there aggressively. by oblivious_humanin bayarea

[–]monsieurlee 3 points4 points ago*

People do shit like cursing at others and flip them off in cars and not face to face because they feel protected. Same reason behind the Great Internet Fuckwad Theory.

They know they are being an asshole, but when others aren't right there looking at you, you don't care.

Once you get them face to face most people dial it back a notch.

What's the best comeback you've heard or said? by kmcleodin AskReddit

[–]monsieurlee 1 point2 points ago

Danke. I also like the American / Texan version, even if it is longer: All hat, no cattle.
