Something is fishy. How is it physically possible to eat 12,000 calories of cheese per day plus hamburgers and lose weight? Somebody here is lying.

This guy might be good at designing but he is really bad at 3D-printing. All of that post-processing would've been completely unnecessary if he'd made better choices about material and print orientation.

I know people with "8472" as well.

I'm flatly amazed "1701" isn't in the top 50.

I have many teachers in both my immediate and extended family. All of the ones who aren't retired say the same thing: the quality of parents is in the absolute shitter in two major aspects: parents don't want to teach their children anything they see as "the school's job" such as how to read or work on anything with their children at home. The second way is discipline. They instill no values of discipline or respect for the rights of others in their children. The "back of the room peanut gallery" that was one in ten or one in twenty children when I was young has grown to one in three. These are kids who've never seen negative consequences for anything they've ever done and steadfastly believe that will continue into their adulthood.

I'm not able to try it until later, but regarding the sample audio: The voice quality is quite good, but what's going on with all the random pauses between words? It's very Captain Kirk.

It's really not that far out, considering the backdrop of what actual Belgians were doing to actual Congolese at the time.

You're correct, but I felt the need to mention it as the OP's one is just a bare circuit board unless you pay extra for a similar acrylic frame.

Right. For the large companies, and the majority of the workforce, they mean nothing. Then the small to mid size businesses with some whackadoo who goes "we're not hiring X anymore, underrepresented groups only!" get a ton of press and create political capital.

It's all so tiresome.

I didn't comment on the kickstarter product. I commented on the forty dollar continuity tester.

Wow that is some
massively
overpriced crap right there. Forty dollars for a USB continuity tester with a basic plastic case that only does type-C cables. Meanwhile you can get one, with acrylic case, that does types A, B, C, Micro, and Micro 3.0 for $17 off Amazon or $11 off Aliexpress.

Personally I've yet to see a ray tracing implementation that I would sacrifice 10% of my framerate for, let alone 30%+. Most of the time, to my tastes, it doesn't even look
better
, it just looks
different

This is why it's so important to have local copies of things you value. Movies, shows, games, Youtube channels, everything.

I still don't understand why some Hollywood writers are so out of touch with reality that they create characters with horrible fake Southern accents saying "y'all" as a singular pronoun. Nobody would actually do that unless they have brain damage.
