If they could use organic matter as raw material...

So, no, it's worse.

Congratulation on picking the right measurement unity.

Ok. That is a very compelling use case. I guess over some size they become a non-brainier.

You want to minimize wight and vibration on the printing head. And everything that deals with pellets adds a great deal of both.

In theory you can manage to melt the pellets in a static machine away from the printing head. But you will get a lot of new problems getting it where you need and switching it on and off as needed.

You think people want to extinguish mosquitoes because they bite is annoying?!

Is it exFAT now?

All your fp variables turning into nan? Nah, that's just another day.

Ouch. That's a notch better than proposals of perpetual motion machines.

Electron bottle is a concept that exists. Physicists do design them. Somebody made a joke about it already, but mainly for fusion reactors and high-energy physics. It's a simple concept in theory, but electrons will really push against being together in a box.

Anyway, what your comment is trying to get is a capacitor. Not an electron bottle. You will notice if you keep adding details.

Reflection chambers are also a concept that exists. Although the only application of them that I know of is to make lasers. Anyway, you got that point about not looking at them right!

But no, you can't rely on photons colliding with each other.

All of that happens the exact opposite way when you compare Writer with Word.

And Presenter compared to Power Point has the clear answer that you shouldn't use either.

Either way, Excel is the one good piece of software in MS Office. Has always been, and I don't expect it to change in the future. (Except maybe if they decide to make Excel bad.) But that's only as long as it always corrupting anything mildly complex doesn't bother you.

In a 1918 theater, it probably makes no difference whatsoever.

Has anybody actually looked at the paper instead of reacting to The Guardian's reaction?

Because as bad as the Nobel Prize Committee is at their job, that doesn't look like something you would find in one.

You don't see the relation between those?

for the less intelligent folks

Yeah, ok.

 

As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

 

All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

Is there some educational or research resource they get?

 

The links like [email protected].

I have had a pretty bad time making those work. I have tried searching for them at the communities page, and removing the exclamation mark and pasting them on my instance (lemmy.world/c/[email protected]).

Some times one of those works, other times my instance finds nothing. And if I go directly to the home instance of the community, it doesn't bring my login.

What is the recommended way to use those?
