RE: Are IQ Tests an Accurate Indication of Intelligence?
I dunno about IQ tests because I've never taken one, but I've always done very well on standardized tests and I'm a total failure at life, so I'm going to go with they don't mean much.

RE: Mining Ethereum with an RX 560, since all the 570s/580s are gone...
Right, I don't expect this to hold. But again, I didn't buy this card to mine, I needed an upgrade from my GTS 250 anyway, so might as well put it to work while it is worthwhile.

RE: What should I focus my blog on? Electronics, photography, music, repairs?
Thanks! Yeah, I love the wiring pics. I want to do one inside of a clear chassis at some point so all the wiring shows. Just have to figure out how to keep out the RF interference!

Thanks! Adding the photos part here was actually totally a last minute thing, I've never much thought of myself as a photographer, but looking back, I do like how a lot of these came out. We'll see, I

It's never too late to start! I never did anything with electronics until about 3 years ago. Actually, my first project was just jumping right in the deep end and designing and building an amp. Then it

I agree! I'm hoping I get more projects so that I can try out new circuits and new ways to showcase them!

Thanks for the advice! There is something to be said for having a specialized thing because it can give you a more engaged following. I also kind of feel like I should stick to things I'm better at rather

Thanks! Yeah, vacuum tubes are still actually very common in guitar amplification for the way they overdrive, but for some reason, most amps don't actually display the tubes, which I try to do more, because

Sounds about right, that is a bit more accessible to most people I think. I've just got to work on my recording skills! There are a bunch of neat bands out here in El Paso that don't get the exposure they

Thank you! I'm planning a few trips this summer, so hopefully some neat photo ops come out of that. I'll check out your blog too.

RE: Story about restoration of TOYOTA LEVIN'93 (ae101)
I wish! Hah, the '85-'87 motors have thin connecting rods and aren't much good for turbocharging like the earlier and later models. A more aggressive camshaft could be done though. Nah, it has mechanical

Honestly he was right though, though his delivery could have been better. The death penalty isn't shown to deter crime, it was a pretty nasty question, and ultimately, the rabid police militarization that

He wasn't amazing, he was more conservative than most of his predecessors, but far, far less so than Clinton and Gore. But he came very close to winning, was leading the polls for a while, and still maintains

Democrats have only nominated one worthy party leader in my lifetime, and he lost :-/. Michael Dukakis in '88 was the last nominee before the party became the friendlier face of Ayn Rand.

Best of luck to you guys out there. Nice to see an actual proper Labor candidate, rather than neoliberal New Labor. Hopefully New Deal Democrats will take things back from New Democrats over here in 2020
