That's what I suspected, but it's actually pretty weird to associate "rectum" as it's quite a dissimilar word, sharing nothing but a few letters. Like, "referendum" sounds like ass too? I mean weird, unle

I believe this project is primarily funded by functional autism and a sharp mind, enabled by a socially supportive environment. It's mostly one dude who really went into the depths of it, considered a lot of details and managed to deli

I know what you are getting at, but I think that's an unfair characterization after all. I don't want to shit-talk Ratspeak, but the foregone description of community and momentum seems far fetched. Additionally, the vibe is prett

I am not a native speaker, but I can't figure out what you are getting at. I have a hard time imagining you meant this: > The reticulum is the second chamber in the four-chamber alimentary canal of a ruminant mammal. I guess, on the

What's exactly the criticism you got? What do you miss?

Does it? It's seemingly one person on Github and the "community" is otherwise on Discord and Telegram, which is pretty sus.

That's crazy. Herpes can't be cured, so the implication of those ads can only be to "hide" the infection. Additionally, those antivirals aren't effective at preventing outbreaks unless you take them every day, which

Looking at global population stats, you can clearly see where germ theory and vaccines entered human civilization. All this "natural something" and antivax movement certainly is the other direction. Maybe it's subconscious po

Lol, you are both right: - It's not commonly transmitted sexually - It can definitely be transmitted sexually https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatitis_C#Sexual_intercourse

> HPV 2 and Herpes are rather common Seems like both HSV-1 and HSV-2 seroprevalences are actually rather low in the Netherlands. As for STI testing: Serological testing is pretty meaningless regarding infection risk and direct viral dete

I think, if you scale it up a bit and adjust the weight for increased friction losses, you may be able to do it considering available materials, but the required knowledge would be anachronistic. I mean, they could also have built compound

Well, let that drop on your feet. Or have those fat rubber bands slap you in the face... The small pinch of powder in a cartridge got the same punch. It's not a nuclear bomb obviously, but I feel you would be just as dismissive, anyway

That's fine, if it doesn't mean throwing your money or taxes at them. Otherwise a democracy eroding social impact will become a self-fulfilling prophecy, regardless of tech viability. First and foremost, we should worry about the

Just another scare to gain funding, "because of the implication", overstating their technological impact, conflating scifi with reality. Seems like they aim at overreacting governments, or libertarian plebs to hold the bags this

That device is so much more scary! Both really demonstrate the ridiculous amount of energy stored in a pinch of gun powder. And I presume gun powder is quite inefficient at driving the projectile, too.

by jijijijij 2mo ago
I think the only real advantage of this, compared to gas driven projectiles, is the lack of need for gas sealing and explosion resistance of the projectile. The projectile is accelerated much more gently. You can launch combustible, rather

Don't know about the US, but isn't it "9to5" there too? Is there much "culture" before 9? I can say in Germany "9to..." is also applying to cafes, supermarkets, ... pretty much nothing is open before

For me the difference is anaerobic vs aerobic exercise. I can only go for a run first thing in the morning. Although, that's more about the empty stomach (and outdoor temperatures in summer). If I got sugar in my blood, food in my stom

Good luck getting those devs. Between the fallout of covid and AI in education, there is likely half an upcoming generation poorly educated and comparatively less qualified. Right now the market favors employers, but I think when the sobrie

Right, in winter there is less sun. However, there still is some sunlight and in winter you also still got wind energy. Maybe more wind, especially off-shore. Not to mention geothermal and water energy. In any case, battery storage has been

Not to mention ammonia isn't the friendliest of chemicals and doesn't exactly beg for decentralized logistics. I think, projects like these grew out of dunkelflaute moral panic regarding renewable energy. Meanwhile grid battery st

You are right, Blender doesn't just serve one industry. I had the movie industry in mind, because it demands the largest set of Blender's features. I believe Maya still has/had the edge in animation and particle stuff. Though

Thanks for the Apple pay hint. That was just what I needed to get me over the mental threshold. It's been literally two clicks.

It's not just incredibly powerful software, it's also incredibly fun and intuitive to use (once the UI has clicked with you). There are still some areas where commercial competitors got edge, but Blender covers a wider base, is th
