My presentation had the Russian video where the kid gets wrapped up around a bar. Also had the pictures from where the guy got wrapped around a chuck and there is an eyeball sitting on top of the pile.

The manual lathe is the most dangerous piece of equipment in a shop in terms of fatalities. They cannot be made ‘safe’. You can only train people how to use them safely and not put idiots on them.

I’ve seen the chuck key of shame used and support its use. My rule was one chuck key fuckup, second offense, immediate termination.

I used to have a safety presentation on lathes. It was called, “The Happy Fun Lathe Safety Presentation.” Kittens and puppies on the title and chock full of gore.

SPEAK UP, F**ET! FADDER CAN’T HEAR YOU!

Spacedicks was a terrible place full of terrible people, but I still feel like something has been lost.

Shh. Only dreams now.

Ehh. IDK if that would be bad or good for Linux. More choices against the possibility of weaker teams/poorer code. Even if things did fragment for a while, one version likely comes out on top and everyone migrates slowly back together.

Interwebs and tech seems to route around this sort of thing.

No clue how all this shakes out. Not real invested in this ideological/bureaucratic slap fight.

It’s always entertaining when Linus flames off.

Crawdads. Tasty with some hot sauce.

Anna’s Archive for ebooks.

I mean, I have a home server setup with 32 terabytes of NAS in a RAID 5 running the *Arrs and Jellyfin pulling from Usenet. Also running Calibre and paying for Anna’s.

Like I told a friend that got huffy with me over how I do my sailing, “I been pirating since you had babyteeth.”

You can be prickly if you want, but increased piracy is a symptom of a service problem. If Netflix hadn’t gone to shit, I’d still be using it. I’m considering paying for Samsung’s art subscription for my TV.

I will pay a reasonable price for convenient media. Make it difficult or expensive enough, and I’ll sail the high seas. Time is money.

I’ve been paying for a Pandora subscription for about a decade. Worth it. (Piracy is a service problem.)

Their recommendations for similar bands, auto play, and making stations from a band or song has let me discover so much music over the years.

Ahh, someone else who views the risks correctly. Spent a lot of time in the swamps in Alabama. Wore snake gaiters for the giant cotton mouths. Soaked my clothes in permethrin. Still way more scared of the ticks than the snakes. Especially that Alphagal stuff.

Wow. You’ll totally win hearts and minds talking like that.

Southern Boy. Hmm. Where in the South?

Badass. I’ll enjoy reading about it.

If I were younger and had more free time; it would be fun to infiltrate these groups.

Unicorn Riot, hadn’t seen it before. Looks really interesting. Other than being Left and somewhat militant, (I’m Left), do you have any criticisms?

Coil was originally aluminum, so it had a higher resistance. Even with a ‘perfect’ wind, the resistance might still be low.

Scramble should be fine, it’s a DC application. So long as i get close enough: it should work.

Real time operating systems are important for CNC machines and other industrial controls. Been a while since I kept up with Linux CNC and the open source control world, but I think this may have big implications for motion controls including printers.

This is why the big name CNC controls are mostly proprietary OS like FANUC, HAAS, Siemens, Mazak. Lot of them have Mitsubishi down in the guts. Heidenhain has Linux, at least in the top layer, iirc. Citizen had windows in the top layer.

I see two ureters running from the kidneys to the bladder, one ureter cut, bladder pushed to right side. Urethra runs from bladder on top of vagina. Some dissection knowledge present.

Vulva and pubic mound are present, if not terribly well drawn. There may be some influence of vulva as a mouth.

Ovaries are present as is uterus. Muscular nature of uterus is shown along with fetus.

Clitoris seems to be missing.

There are extra pipes all over, with some going to the wrong locations, and things seem to be linked to the liver. The liver being involved is likely due to whatever medical theories were prevalent at the time, humors maybe.

I would assume that the artist likely took a lot of inspiration from animal entrails.

Ignorance isn’t the same as stupid. Looks like a lot of thought was put into it. I would view this more as an early map than as an attempt at realism.

Not that I’m doubting you, but do you have more info on the lasting toxicity of napalm? I hadn’t heard of this.

I knew that the defoliant Agent Orange had dioxin contamination that led to all those horrible birth defects and cancers. Also, the contaminating nature of depleted uranium is obvious as a heavy metal but I think we still don’t grasp the magnitude of the problem. Iraq and Afghanistan will likely be seeing awful effects in future generations.

Clove oil. Put a few drops on a cotton ball and put it against the tooth. Your whole mouth will go pretty numb but it will usually kill the pain for a while.

American healthcare sucks.
