read moreNew Electric Vehicle Technology With Big Promises
It’s no secret that I am a big fan of electric-powered vehicles. I have spent several years developing an electric-powered, 3 wheeled, tilting motorcycle. Two of the greatest challenges deal with power input and power output. The challenge with power input mainly deals with the ability to have access to power when needed. The challenge with power output is that current battery technology is great at holding decent amounts of energy, but they are very slow to recharge. It seems that two new breakthroughs may be able to resolve some of...

This is a quick post to potentially help others out that may experience issues with their cordless phone not ringing on incoming calls using a PAP2T Internet phone adapter with 2 ports for VoIP (Voice-over-IP) calls.

It was giving me a message of kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception I’m not sure as to why, so I tried a reboot and I was given the same message during the boot. I didn’t catch where in the book the kernel got panicky. So I hopped on Google and tried a few searches. I didn’t come up with anything concrete, however, I did find a post on a forum about someone having a somewhat similar issue with a kernel panic during the...
