Americans buying more cars, driving more miles - but using less gas
2014-09-24 02:23:14| Auto Dealers - Topix.net
U.S. motorists drove more miles this summer than at any time since the 2008 financial crisis, according to government data, but the cause and implications of the roadway revival may be different than in years past. The slow recovery in total miles driven may have more to do with a resurgence in vehicle sales due to zero- or low-interest loans than a long-term return to increased driving.

The ultimate remote admin: NASA will reformat Opportunitys dodgy flash memory from 125 million miles away
2014-09-02 17:56:55| Extremetech
It would seem, despite being outfitted with the finest flash memory that money can buy, even Mars rover Opportunity isn't immune to worn-out NAND cells. After a dozen unplanned reboots in August, most likely caused by the faulty flash, NASA is moving ahead with a complete reformat of the rover's volatile memory. Back in 2004, Opportunity's sibling rover -- Spirit -- was brought back from the brink of death with a similar reformatting maneuver. Considering Opportunity has now been roving the surface of Mars for over a decade, and all it has required is some small software updates and now a format, I'd say the little rover has done rather well.
