   hmm, I didn't know about the BOSL2, I was struggling with fillets and chamfers, you basically had to figure out how to define them somehow which isn't really straightforward. Been using FreeCAD mostly which still has weird issues

   Would be even slower as the light will travel slower in the optical fiber and there will be time associated with each repeater as well.

   I think it was fine 20 odd years ago. I had a Thinkpad T41p in 2004 and it was a great laptop. Even my Sony Vaio Z was nice in 2008 compared to the competition (although it had serious issues with the screen flexibility causing it to fail m

   Can you elaborate? Are you never reading papers directly but only using Gemini to reformat or combine/summarize?

   I used to print papers, probably stopped about 10 years ago. I now read everything in Zotero where I can highlight and save my annotations and sync my library between devices. You can also seamlessly archive html and pdfs. I don't see

   Yes, I think Plex was an XBMC fork and Kodi is the new name of XBMC. Jellyfin forked from Emby, I think when it became closed source. I never used Emby. Plex always seemed to cost money in confusing ways and that turned me off. My initial T

   Ah, I have no use/interest in remote access to my library. I just have one tv in the house with an NVidia shield that accesses the Jellfin library on a miniPC on the network.

   I found Jellyfin was super easy but I came from XBMC/Kodi which was a big struggle.

   CT scanning is widely used for analysis of batteries to determine safety and failure analysis.

    This is basically good marketing content for Lumafield that sell the CT scanners. Cost to them is almost nothing, just opportunity cost of doing something else on the tool.

    Yes, I knew a few of the authors from my time in grad school. Certainly much closer to mimicking the enamel structure but not a commercial therapy yet.

    I don't know too much about the bacteria stuff. Regarding enamel, the native structure is very intricate and contributes to the properties. Most of the acellular chemical reminalization just deposits disorganized minerals on the teeth.

    Self driving cars have had many incremental improvements. I think fusion power is actually making progress, not clear about solid state batteries. Seems more companies closing than making solid progress.

    I did my PhD in an adjacent area and its not clear any of these come anywhere close to regenerating your enamel.

    Its like a big yacht will have a small boat to take you to shore. The big planes need to carry little planes that can land at small local airstrips close by. Problem solved.

    If you use the TSA-free private terminal then you basically have Jet Suite X, its ok. The planes are old and there is nothing in the terminal if you do get stuck waiting so its not really amazing.

    I'm Canadian so I guess I was used to this and its now worse in California with state income tax as well!

    I lived in WA and NV and didn't notice either of these. I miss not having to deal with state taxes not to mention the 10% of my income that goes away to who knows what.

    Frequent replacement is critical, my understanding is the activated carbon filters typically provided have very limited capacity. More so when compared to the lifetime of the hepa.

    I'm a materials scientist/chemist and the word partition made sense in this context. The VOC/solute is preferentially on surfaces vs floating in the air. This finding doesn't seem super surprising to me given the large s

    Don't need to convince me. I typeset my wife's PhD thesis in LaTeX and it looks great but it was so frustrating that after I did mine in Word.

    Doesn't Latex do this?

    I dont think we have restrictions here (SF Bay area) and a room in a shared apt/house is in many areas even more expensive ($1500-2000).
