  • I believe by aspect ratio, they mean the ratio of diameter to length of the rod shaped structures. At an aspect ratio of less than 3, the structures are more cylinder shaped than rod shaped.

    So the minerals must be mostly stubby cylinder shaped, and less than 4.2% can be needle shaped or long rod shaped. Same problem we had with asbestos actually, that the long thin needle shaped fibers were physically damaging to tissue.

  • Guided quests/goals have really become more important to me than before. I've played so much Minecraft that a pure everything sandbox isn't interesting anymore for my friends and I, and it's more important to have a goal and end point to our worlds so we don't just slowly stop playing on the server until someone finally shuts it down.

    So packs with limited mod sets, and some sort of quest book. It also helps learning new mods so much more than a wiki.

    For actual content, we typically enjoy an automated/tech/magic mix, without going as far as gregtech style.

  • Oh there is absolutely a group that prints their own, and before that there were re-molds that were made based on the real ones.

    From what I understand, (friends play) they aren't allowed in "official" sponsored matches, so if you really want to compete big you have to have real armies. But also they have printed one of those $800 models because most people don't have the cash to throw at stuff like that.

    So I'm sure there are some diehard people that only think official models should be used but it doesn't seem common.

  • Websites don't have an actual check for a legit email... That's why they send confirmation links to click. Forms check that it ends with @something.something, sometimes they can add filters to not allow anything other than the 20 most popular domains. Or they can block addresses with less than 3 characters, because nobody real has those. But most forms you can keyboard smash [email protected]. They just might make a temp account until it's confirmed or something.

    But [email protected] almost certainly was/is real.

  • I had basically the same experience. I could download a 100gb game but not finish installation, just a shitty error code, support was trash too asking me to change my default windows program install location.

    Did you notice that when you install games from the Xbox app on a drive, it makes special folders that you can't delete? It installs them with TrustedInstaller, and that means that the administrator isn't allowed to delete them! You have to open up the folders and change the owner back to a user, then give that user permission to delete the fucking folder. Bullshit insidious software that I won't use anymore.

  • It's the killdeer! We get returning birds across the road every year. Silly little running cotton balls with rock colored eggs in gravel nests, and they just had babies.

    Tool touch-off for drilling coped tubes

  • So it's a type of thermobaric weapon. It's composed of magnesium hydride, which holds hydrogen more effectively than pressurized gas tanks, and it releases that hydrogen when detonated by a primer charge. It then ignites all that released hydrogen mixed with air to make a very impressive fireball.

    A better name than "non-nuclear hydrogen bomb" exists, but would probably be longer and more specific. Hydride thermobaric bomb maybe.

  • If you like and want to buy a Tesla for reasons other than supporting Musk or his companies, I'd hear the argument. But there are better choices in vehicles for every reason I can think of, and expensive luxury electric vehicles can be had without it being a Tesla.

  • I'm with you in spirit if not numbers. My experience with hexbear users led me to blocking the whole instance, and I regularly block people I don't even converse with based on how they treat other users or other topics. If someone has such a bad take on topic A, I don't care about their possible opinions on topic B and C in the future.

    I get the argument of echo chamber isolation, but most of the things I'm willing to block people over are also things that I won't be changing my mind about because of a forum post.

  • This article is just, "making a TV show is expensive and a lot of it goes to the place you made the show" ?

    Why is it being framed as some huge charity case/economy boost? It's a TV show and they filmed it in one of the most expensive places available.

    I suppose it could have all been sets and greenscreen and it would have been cheaper, and it was an intentional choice to spend more money in the city, but I didn't the why mentioned in the article at all.

    Had a weird defect in our aluminum sheet.

    About an inch deep all along one side of the sheet, it split in half.

    New type of fixture I saw online for holding the bore of something

    It's o-rings and spacers stacked and compressed, pushing the o-ring out like an expansion collet.

    Our rusty lathe

    The company didn't pay the mortgage for over a year, and our nearly new lathe got very rusty.
