Umm this doesnt seem to be true: https://www.semafor.com/article/02/20/2026/cantor-fitzgerald...

Or is there another source for this claim?


Theres C++ in military airplanes, they just cut out 90% of the features: https://www.stroustrup.com/JSF-AV-rules.pdf

And heres a nice video about it: https://youtu.be/Gv4sDL9Ljww?si=Z4riPMKAKcIKaU0s


Not the guy but you can just buy your ebooks from someplace else and use calibre to convert/send them to your kindle.

Im kinda cheeky and use Amazons Send-to-Kindle service to send ebooks in epub format to my kindle via wifi


I do this as well and leave the site name in the filename where it was downloaded from if it was part of the filename originally.


Oh no youre one druggie friend (that you didnt know about having a drug addiction) that visits you sometimes got caught by the cops. Oh no they think youre their drug dealer since his license plate got recognized in your driveway a few times. Oh no they are kicking your door in with a search warrant and shoot your dog.



Cool, so now there are multiple ways to have it happen.

That sounds worse.


Yeah, I can tell you that the only thing CCTV does is making the thief wear hoodies. And you get some clips of them carrying expensive bikes around the corner out of CCTV range to their parked transporter.


Even without hoodie… who was it? Some dude.


In small shops youtube is quite a handy source of information. I have to prototype and 3D print lots of stuff.

Its not that simple. Smokers that dont die suddenly (how many are those actually?) dont die much earlier because healthcare improved and also:

- kill/cause damages through passive smoke

- can/do cause enormous health bills (my dad struggled on for almost 6 years)

- cleaning up their trash costs money

- set fire to stuff with thrown cigarette butts

- often dont just die and just cant work anymore thus stopping working earlier, create less value in general

I'd love to read up on current studies/research but lots of studies are 10+ years old now but the damages seem to outweigh them not having a retirement.


All the things you listed arent things you interact with by pressing on them thousands of times in a day. Its a hard problem to make a keyboard that feels nice, looks nice and is waterproof. Its even harder if you know that the payoff isnt that marketable, I dont think I have ever seen a mainstream laptop advertisment talking about that you can spill stuff on it. Phones barely have buttons or holes anymore and it took us quite a while for the flagship-phones to be water-resistant.


I interact with my iphone by pressing it many times per day.

I'll give you that keyboards are hard but my thinkpad had a good keyboard with a drip tray and drainage hole.

Here's one on Amazon with good reviews https://www.amazon.co.uk/Keyboard-Waterproof-Ultra-Compact-P...


You touch it. You're not actuating any mechanisms.


Im sorry but the video feels a bit disingenuous with the way he is cutting the lime. With the normal knive he just pushes straight down on the lime and with the vibroknife he actually does a slicing move. Same with the cheese. It doesnt feel like an honest comparison


Maybe, though I'll note that this matches how I use regular knives with cheese & similar things: with a dull unscalloped knife I have to carefully go straight down to avoid tearing. If my knife is sharp (or temporarily oiled) and the food doesn't stick, I'll slice. Because I can. The end result is different: thinner slices, less crushing. Also faster.


I saw the same thing immediately. The robot arm could be calibrated to use a real slicing motion as well. They're misrepresenting the actual performance of this product.

100% confirmed meme product.
