  • Always wear protection, folks

  • I work is a loud environment, and didn’t take it as seriously as I should've, and just wore regular earbuds because I wanted to be able to listen to music over the noise of the machinery. I don't have it as bad as either of those cases you mentioned, but definitely noticed that I couldn't hear as well by my mid 20s, and it takes very little background noise to prevent me from being able to following a conversation.

    Now I am pretty good about wearing earplugs, and have bone conduction headphones that I can use with them, and the sound comes through clear even at low volume with the ear pro in. I would highly recommend them if that is part of anyones hangup around wearing ear pro.

  • Microsoft spent two years and $1B developing the Kin mobile phone line, which failed after just 48 days in 2010(May 14-June 30) due to poor sales. They blamed Verizon for not promoting it enough

  • A lot of them are, and are sewn in in such a way that you can often neatly use a seam ripper to take just them off.

  • Its just a microcosm of how being poor is really expensive, while there are tons of ways to save money while wealthy. That doesn't end up being the cause of wealth inequality but it does give a certain inertia to those class positions.

    Edit: because I misremembered the quote and vimes does present it that way.

  • Drones

  • 3dp really still shines best in a rapid prototyping mode, if they are really mass producing, they'll probably be skipping 3dp in favor of injection molding or some other process

  • Functioning society /= America is kinda the point of the original comment.

  • 'Russian bombers are burning en masse' — Ukraine's SBU drones hit 'more than 40' aircraft in mass attack, source claims

    Jump

  • In the air they are highly survivable long range bomb trucks, that all these ones had to be destroyed in drone attacks on the ground is kind of evidence of that.

    The US has used its strategic bombing forces for non nuclear attacks extensively as well, including known use of the B2 against the Houthis and B52 against IS in Syria.

    Why aren't Americans filling the manufacturing jobs we already have?

    Jump

  • Lots of manufacturing operations are terrible to work for, but there is a general gap in the manufacturing labor pool in the US. I've worked at a handful of different shops over the years, and most places I've been have offered decent bonuses for recruitment referrals because they struggled to find people. Even the places that paid decent and were aright to work at.

  • I've had a lot of wildlife encounters, including bears, wolves and moose, but seeing a wolverine is the only time I've ever removed the safety from my bear spray, and one of the few times I've started to psych myself up mentally to fight an animal.

    Luckily it was pretty much a non story, I was hiking up a forest service road in western Montana on the Pacific Northwest Trail, and heard a noise behind me. I turned to see what looked like a 4ft tall badger trundle out of the bush about 40 feet back. It kinda stood or sat up on its back legs and we locked eyes for moment as I drew and readied bear spray. The moment passed and it slumped back to all fours and just ambled away down the forest service road away from me.

  • Does this even matter?? The chilling effect of 245% vs 145% or even 45% has gotta be pretty marginal.
