Uranium 🟩

Yeah, this could be much shorter and not AI written, still I appreciate the idea of exploring technology fundamentals sometimes, just not the way it’s been implemented in this case

An interesting aspect of this is when trying to mover power over long distances AC becomes inefficient and High Voltage DC becomes the more efficient option.

Between 2-3% for HVDC vs 6-7% for AC systems when transmitting over 1000km.

Trip codes are I think what you’re taking about, not all boards had them enabled but they were a way of authenticating a user on the boards that did

But would that then imply that all commissioned works aren’t art?

Or does the difference of who (or more specifically what) you commission to produce something decide whether it’s art?

People always focus on the “Lady jerks off dolphin”, part of the story, not the ‘Noted Psychoanalyist and developer of the first sensory deprivation chamber has employee jerk off dolphin as part of a research programme that was funded to see if human-dolphin communication was possible, whilst high on LSD’

John C Lilly really fuckin liked dolphins😅

I’m really trying to remember what I did, but I got steam playing ball with my NTFS drives without issue…

Both on steamdeck using an SD card formatted to NTFS, and on a manjaro/windows dual boot with an NTFS shared drive…

Genuinely don’t remember how I did it… I want to say something to do with symlinks…

I assume you’ve come across and tried this: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/wiki/Using-a-NTFS-disk-with-Linux-and-Windows

This should really be the canary in the coal mine for just how bad things are going to get.

Occult Rock; it’s the transition somewhere between psychedelic rock and heavy metal.

Relatively unknown nowadays but it you like psych or heavy metal you’ll probably enjoy it.

Lots of powerful, bluesy, female vocals.

Huh, I’ve got a collection of not necessarily dangerous, but hard to find chemicals. DCM (methylene chloride) is still something I’ve been unable to find. It’s an incredibly useful solvent especially for adhering bitumen felt to itself.

Wait, why vitamin D before bed?

I thought your body produces it in response to daylight, so I always thought that should be taken in the day?

I’m genuinely unsure they’re a scab, I think they’re saying that we cannot expect these parasitic companies to have the workers best interests at heart, and as such strong workers rights should be enshrined in law and enforced.

I could be misunderstanding them though of course.

Do you have a flatbed scanner? Like a photocopier printer?

Literally put the item on the glass of the flatbed and hit scan, stick an etched mm ruler beside it facing the scanner if you want scale.

It’s generally the most effective way by far to perform this.

I’ve used it to copy the perfect profile of an extruded aluminium ebike battery housing, to print a replacement cap after the first got cracked.

Basically when you try to use your phone to perform a task like this, you’ll need to account for the inherent lens distortion of your camera, which is a pain in the ass

Bonnie and Clyde, Killdozer man, Al Capone, Christopher Dorner, Billy the Kid to name a few.

There are a few different common themes amongst them, either functioning as part of a gang or as a lone wolf, Bonnie and Clyde captured attention for the romantic twist attached to it.

There are also greater numbers of outlaws during periods where laws are hard to enforce due to remoteness and isolation (old west) or due to the laws being flaunted by basically everyone due to the laws being considered ridiculous (prohibition).

The key common theme is that they are viewed as fighting against an (what the public view as) unjust system, though often it’s more to do with their goals coincidentally aligning with the publics perception of an unjust system.

I wonder if their great mood is as much about the (successful) landing as much as it is about the glide?

Was there any spyware/telemetry found in red star OS?

I remember a good few years back finding a leaked image for it and having some fun with it ended up throwing it on an open Gdrive link, then a few years later someone leaked a more up to date version that tried to look like macOS.

Also the opposite side to it don’t keep hammering into somebody once they’ve admitted fault and are trying to rectify their mistakes (within reason).

People will be a lot more likely to be confident in admitting a mistake and being honest about it if it isn’t blown out of proportion.

Yeah, you say twot to an English person and they’ll look at you like you’ve sprouted a third head.

The correct way to pronounce it is twat:

The twat in a hat came at me with a bat.

As opposed to:

The THOT whose a bot sent me her twot.

Huh, same here, that’s odd

Are you meaning because people are excited about “fusion” being a possible future energy source, whereas when they here “nuclear” their minds immediately go to weapons and fission accidents and pollution?
