What if, instead of a gun which imparts massive accelerations on the payload, we instead use something with lesser acceleration. I’m thinking of a hybrid between an elevator, a slingshot, and a railgun. The point here is to get to escape ve

Don’t blame the users for wanting to change a predatory system. They’ve already identified the problem — telling them to simply ignore it is dismissing their humanity. We’re not machines and need to work inside those constraints

I’ve built something very similar. It uses an Arduino Pro Micro and the HID library. It uses a large knob as a scroll wheel. Now I’m so used to it that scrolling without my extra off-hand device feels awkward and slow. Easily my most useful

I am having trouble seeing a visible difference between half of the colors in the data visualization images. As far as I know, I don’t have any color vision issues. The green, cyan, and magenta colors all look basically the same. Am I alone

Speaking of fruit, I’m interpreting this as an apples and oranges situation. If we’re talking about trust of the engine that’s one thing, but holding back a launching rocket is different. That is the absolute worst case for the rocket (and

I think that there’s a difference between just seeing something and taking it in deeply enough to carry the information into their minds eye and then transfer that onto a canvas through finger movements. I’m absolutely no expert here but it
