Surprisingly, the inspiration for the paper came from a YouTuber who has been attempting to physically recreate the ancient mechanism.

I was just re-watching clickspring's videos about this yesterday.

That's been on my wishlist for a long time.

Recently I've played a lot of demos from the Steam Next Fest. Before that I think I finished Heaven's Vault, I can dearly recommend it.

You can catch a glimpse of what the websites were like using the web archive. A good starting point would be a popular web directory, like for example the Google directory from 2004.

I guess it's too much to ask the richest company on the planet to keep a list of a few accounts indefinitely. I'm sure that database is a whole gigabyte sized and maintaining it requires a whole person to check in on it once in a while. Obviously they can only afford that level of effort for a year or two. And we're only taking about removing access from millions of people to something they paid good money for, and also doing it because. Yeah, I'm with you on this one, totally not their fault.

I never said I don't enjoy spicy food. But it's so obviously a dick measuring contest for most people. No one talks about how much salt they can "handle", no one makes fun of people for not being able to stomach a really sweet energy drink. But with capsaicin it's so prevalent, it's a whole subculture dedicated to pissing in a line. I mean this whole thread is only popular because the initial proposed underlying thought is "haha, Denmark can't handle spice". It's all very juvenile.

Yeah, I get it. You're cordless, right?

Let's celebrate his life and his accomplishments

I'm a big fan of his work in the field of genocide denial and atrocity apologetics, truly inspirational.

It's a dick measuring thing.

Careful using the word efficiency there, as it has a different meaning when talking about solar panels - it indicates how much energy the panel can extract from the light hitting it. The best modern panels you can buy are below 25% efficient, and since these are from the 90s they were probably about half that when new.
