Likely it'll depend on the actual BIOS settings about power management and USB-devices for wake-up. Even if it won't work for the first time it may be an option to delay the matter of the new keyboard if force-start succeeds once.

I think a piece is missing there. Without the hinge the base is supposed to look like this: or: there is that thin foil (with a wire, I think) across the area, with that rubber pad/cup attached. I think that foil is entirely missing. Those wires-on-foil things are really hard to find contacts...

No need for AI: you only need to read the EULA to know that (for common cases) nobody, ever was actually responsible.

Also, there were some with a gasoline engine...

Three months of vacation is good, but the distribution might be indeed problematic. In elementary schools the first two or three weeks (up to a month) of a new semester are traditionally about re-learning the already forgotten last year and sharing all the adventure and experience germs and bugs...

First of all, all three of those are specialized, niche designs. Comparing them carelessly is like ... bikes, cars, planes (and oranges) kind of question... For an expanding working 'fluid' like gas and steam classic turbines are preferred since various stages (for different pressures) can be...

How do you measure 'magnetic'? Also, where do you need 'magnetic' in this setup? For what effect?

Which one exactly?

It is a bit messy, but I think the exact meaning is more about this digit '2', with the base only assumed if used as number. Can be used to describe numbers with only a base above two. Could be worse, though...

Once you are down to technobabble, you can do anything and no need for advice about hard Sci-Fi. A 'bolt of pressurized plasma' is an explosion, not a projectile.

You need to be aware of the limitations, then. There is a maximal velocity (well below orbital velocities), and with projectile mass and speed comes barrel wear: with orbital-like distances comes accuracy requirements not really achievable. Also, the traditional in-flight corrections for...

Our garden (middle, most private part: where no roads can be seen, anywhere around:smile:) (we just leave the molehills alone. Given that the grass here already has some ... topography they won't make much difference anyway...) (Oooops... But that crate was the refuge of some junior...

vs. An emulated C64 would be up faster. And it's also more 'alive' than 8088 ...

Missed this one. Well, yes. Firmware is the software of an embedded system: usually installed in factory and not meant to be modified by the user. So if you 'finish' it and it is doing something for you, then as 'factory', you have the right to call it firmware :wink: Can be anything from a few...

It was more about the scope of typical application. X86 got lot of programmers since it was a widely used open platform. The RISC competed on lot more specific markets. Well... not really, but could be felt that way. source Execution of one singular instruction was always multiple cycles, but...
