Started watching and have only see one and a bit episodes so far. I fell asleep so will have to go back to episode one and catch up.
Bearing in mind I know pretty much zip about the Fallout universe other than when I’ve seen it mentioned online, it looks pretty good from here - there’s definitely a lot going on and it’ll take a couple of watches before all the little details are picked up.
Seems to me to be a fun programme that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Hope it continues.
The computer used by the Artillery (the one I was trained on in the 80s) was called FACE and had a magnetic core memory of about 8k nigelef.tripod.com/fc_computer.htm
Skimmed through the video and will watch at a later date. Absolutely fascinating. It used to work at a Raytheon company (Cossor in HarlowvUK) on kit that had similar electronics, back in the 70s. It was like being back in the factory :-)
When I was in the Royal Artillery (80-97) we had a system called PADS (Precision Azimuth Determining System) that was used for survey of gun positions. It had some fancy gyroscopes inside. I now know where that originated ;-)
Excellent work - I currently run Endeavour on a PC and laptop. This article has almost made me brave enough to try a bare bones build of Arch on the laptop :-)
You have to look at why are they busy at particular times though. Is it first thing? That’ll be breakfast on the way to work. Lunchtime? Speaks for itself. Early evening, that’ll be after work.
People can’t just randomly change their work hours to suit Subway/Wendy etc prices.
And, not everyone wants breakfast at 11 am and lunch at 3pm.
Any company upping their prices because it’s busy are just gouging customers.
How about they reduce prices when less customers are about?
I simultaneously make seasoned rice cooked in vegetable stock and a teaspoon or two of the same spices I cooked the chickpeas and onions in With some chopped carrot, peppers, peas and sweetcorn, it’s a staple on our meal lists. We call it ‘Rice Fandango’.
I think some of the reasoning is that because it’s taken the same ingredients/processes/time etc. then commodores can charge the same as conventional beer. Where this falls down is here in UK the stronger the alcohol, the higher the tax. Companies probably will justify higher price despite less alcohol because of the expense of research or extra equipment.
