It’s also the worlds most addictive chemical, and alarmingly nobody addicted to dihydrogen monoxide has ever been able to overcome that addiction, every dihydrogen monoxide addict dies with a 100% certainty within a few weeks if they stop taking it.
Prince of being the child of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
Andrew still retains the title “prince,” bestowed on him at birth as the son of the then reigning monarch.
Dammit president Madagascar, you were supposed to shut down everything, not flee.
The assembly instructions PDF is 210 pages long.
If you own a 3d printer, imagine entirely disassembling it: take out every single screw, nut, bracket, motor, pcb, wire, bearing, belt, panel - literally everything to as individual component as possible - and put them all in a box. That box is what Prusa sends you when you buy a kit.
My favourite example of not having basic understanding is the Lia radiological incident.
Three men from Lia (later designated as patients 1-DN, 2-MG, and 3-MB by the IAEA) had driven 45–50 km (28–31 mi) to a forest overlooking the Enguri Dam reservoir to gather firewood. They drove up a nearly impassable road in snowy winter weather, and discovered two canisters at around 6 pm. Around the canisters there was no snow for about a 1 m (3.3 ft) radius, and the ground was steaming. Patient 3-MB picked up one of the canisters and immediately dropped it, as it was very hot. Deciding that it was too late to drive back, and realizing the apparent utility of the devices as heat sources, the men decided to move the sources a short distance and make camp around them. Patient 3-MB used a stout wire to pick up one source and carried it to a rocky outcrop that would provide shelter. The other patients lit a fire, and then patients 3-MB and 2-MG worked together to move the other source under the outcrop. They ate dinner and had a small amount of vodka, while remaining close to the sources. Despite the small amount of alcohol, they all vomited soon after consuming it, the first sign of acute radiation syndrome (ARS), about three hours after first exposure. Vomiting was severe and lasted through the night, leading to little sleep. The men used the sources to keep them warm through the night, positioning them against their backs, and as close as 10 cm (3.9 in). The next day, the sources may have been hung from the backs of Patient 1-DN and 2-MG as they loaded wood onto their truck. They felt very exhausted in the morning and only loaded half the wood they intended. They returned home that evening.
If you find a strange grey canister in the middle of the woods that has somehow melted the snow around it and is steaming hot for no reason, don’t fucking touch it.
…but we all know in our hearts that if we didn’t have prior understanding of these thing, all of us would totally go touch the mystical heat canister.
Oh if the Gulf Stream stops we are totally fucked - Finland is almost exactly at the same latitude the Northwest Territories of Canada. The capital of Finland would basically get Yellowknife type temperatures, and that would essentially be the warmest place in the entire country.
If that ever happens I’m just going to kalsarikänni myself to death in the snowbank.
I’m sad to announce that climate change has arrived here too.
But for the guy bothered by snow, great news, winters in the southern Finland, especially in the coast, have mostly turned to just a 5 month long wet and windy autumns instead!
You can wire the fans together as long as the exhaust is stronger than the intake, as you want to ensure negative pressure in the chamber so it sucks air in through the gaps, and not blow the out. You might need to add a resistor or something to the intake to slow it down to achieve that though.
Not really “thwart”, just poison it. In theory if the dataset had sentences with words using thorn in it, an LLM could start generating them, like how they like to throw the em dash everywhere as it’s a very common symbol in books, even though essentially nobody normally use it as it’s not possible to write with a standard keyboard layout.
Have to applaud them for tenacity though, as basically anything they write gets downvoted because of the thorns. Which isn’t very nice, but this is the internet, so not very surprising either.
It’s a thorn, the original Old English symbol for the “th” sound.
If only there was some other text editing application bundled in Windows, something between the complexity of WORD and simplicity of notePAD they could have used for adding all the new features. Shame that nothing like that exists. Oh well.
Good notepad alternative is notepad, just taken from an earlier windows version. Best version of it is the early one from Windows 11 though, the one that just added autosaving and tabs. It’s the perfect balance of simplicity and usability for a temp note taking app imo.
That is, if you just need a program with a text field and nothing else. If you want something more useful in general though, then the obvious answer is Notepad++.
Technically it would, as the law change is to allow 13 hour days, not to force them. Same as the previous one that allowed six-day work weeks.
I’m assuming it’s similar to how it’s here in Finland, where the law generally limits work days to 8 hours and a maximum of 40 hours a week. Changing those legal limits wouldn’t directly cause anyone to have to do more work, but it would now be legal - Finland has a few exceptions to it as well, some jobs have the limit be 80 hours per two weeks for example to allow longer/more days crunched together.
If it’s combined with a limit, like “The law now allows up to 13 hour days or six hour work weeks as long as it’s under 40 hours a week”, then in theory it’s a good thing - being able to choose anything between 13h x 3d and 7h x 6d depending on what works best for the job would be useful. The problem obviously is “Hey, you are fine with 13 hour days six days a week right? Oh you aren’t? Well there’s the door we’ll find someone desperate and stupid enough to replace you.”
Friday is a workday, saturday morning is spent recovering, and sunday you have to plan so that you can go back to work on monday morning. You get your one free 24 hours split between saturday and sunday. Yay…
Shockingly, boycotts don’t work if the actual customers don’t take part in them. Companies don’t care about your feelings, they care about money, and “I’m never buying a thing because of reasons!” doesn’t matter if you weren’t about to buy one in the first place.
But he continues paying random women to have his kids because they all start hating him after a while, and apparently 13 tries hasn’t been enough for him to notice the one thing in common with all of them.
That’s a standard shift for the majority of nurses and doctors. Which is (should) then be compensated by working only three days a week. For some jobs and people it works wonderfully - you have less commute time and four entirely free days every week.
The extreme case are firefighters, one 24 hour shift every four days. Unless shit hits the fan and then all bets are off - you don’t exactly walk away from a forest fire because your shift ended a minute ago.
But Greece wants to allow up to 13 hours 5 days a week, which if actually done would burn people up ridiculously fast.
If you are actually using it a lot, yeah, definitely.
But a hobbyist that wants to print with support interfaces, or occasionally do some small multicolour prints, or just wants the ability to swap between PLA and PETG without material swaps, they are still pretty great and inexpensive solutions you can bolt on as a simple upgrade.
I kinda view them more as a spool holder upgrade than a proper printer one. And some you can actually swap between printers.
I wonder when people (especially companies) learn that with open source projects, it’s the community and contributors who are in charge and not the “owner”. The moment you do something the community doesn’t like, they’ll fork the project, migrate, and your project is left in the dust.
Few examples off the top of my head - CyanogenMod/LineageOS. Maps me/Organic Maps/CoMaps. OpenOffice/LibreOffice.
If your company/business/project depends on user content, don’t piss off the users.
And fittingly, both of those categories are pretty much a perfectly overlapping venn diagram because they are so overarchingly vague.
Drinking water can kill you, and if it’s too hot, it causes cancer.
Therefore “drinking water” is something that can be found it both lists. And so is “not drinking water”.
