The statements from the Finnish law enforcement agencies are basically that there is no evidence that the cables were intentionally cut. Then there’s reports citing “sources” in agencies that the incidents are thought to be accidental. Basi

Two knobs will do. The timer knob can be used to stop the microwave and it starts once the timer is set and the door is closed.

The indoor example with the staircase and railing was really surprising - there's only one view of much of what's behind the doorframe and it still seems to reconstruct a pretty good 3d scene there.

I got a Ryobi battery-powered chainsaw because I got fed up with the maintenance of gas-powered saws. I found I was spending as much time fiddling with the carburetor, changing fuel lines etc as I was sawing. I have two gas saws, a Stihl an

One way AI may change that is by cutting entry-level creative jobs. If you can’t get a foot in, you don’t start your career.

I’m puzzled by the poor texture quality in these. The colours are just bad - it looks like the textures are blown out (the detail at the bright end clip into white) and much too contrasty ( the turkey does that transition from red to white

I once plugged a USB type B connector into an external hard drive blind (it was dark) and was rewarded with a zap and a dead hard drive. The connector went in the wrong way without any particular force - either the jack or the connector mus

Well, faces and hands are still considered important. There’s a saying that if you get the face and hands right, you can get away with anything. Also common advice for artists is to group the middle and ring fingers together. It just look

Maybe it’s different in Switzerland, but when I took our baby to baby swimming, it did not involve just suddenly throwing the child into the water.

The common wisdom is , if you’re going to be an artist, it better be because you can be nothing else. It’s that hard. So, it’s a rare person indeed who can be a serious artist and support themselves financially some other way

Sandbox games are pretty big. Not my thing at all, but I’m sure there’d be a big market for believable open-world RPGs for example. They’d probably be more simulators than narrative-driven games.

If your contract with your energy company says they will buy enough wind/solar/whatever to cover your consumption, you can say you support that. But when it comes to how much, I think basically you can take “credit” for pushing th

So what you do is you have a system where employees can claim unpaid wages from a government agency who pays them and then goes after the company that didn’t pay to recover the money.

I feel it depends on whether they can get it to work well enough not to be creepy and weird. I think the reasoning is pretty obvious, most people will not wear huge goggles that cover half their face outside a private setting, it's j

It’s funny, I found the images somehow quite unsettling. Maybe it’s just that they look like drawings associated with magical work. Which, reading the comments here, they might be.

Just speculating here, but one way would be that the UK no longer can take part in EU-wide efforts to control the flow of migrants. The EU is doing quite a bit to keep immigrants out by e.g. paying Turkey to take them in instead.
