The bigger problem is that genuine law enforcement efforts are discouraged from actually catching pedophiles because they often end up being constituents of those same cops, either politically or socially. It’s either a priest, a super PAC donor, or another cop on the other end of that investigation.
First, you’re just wrong. You know there are 2 amp wireless chargers, right?
And you’re missing a group that gains MASSIVE benefits from wireless charging, which is the disabled. Imagine your hands never stop shaking and you either have to try to fiddle a USB C into an Itty bitty slot, or just plonk the phone down on a puck. Which one would appeal to you?
You’d be surprised how slow machining can be. Cutting speeds are all in sfm (surface feet per minute) and when you have a BIG part, them feets add up quick. Check out videos of big old vertical lathes running big parts. You can get down to a quarter of an rpm but the flange or fitting is so fucking huge that you’re still pushing 100-200 sfm at the bit.
There are no “typical values” when you’re running a mill or lathe. You could look up “speeds and feeds”, but that’s really just a table that you plug into an equation to figure out how to set the machine. It all depends on what you’re doing and what you’re doing it with. Drilling a hole with a high speed steel drill bit is going to be a bit different than drilling it with a carbide spade, and all that is going to depend heavily on whether you’re trying to run through titanium or tin. You need to fine tune running “x” bit through “y” material for a “z” sized cut.
Essentially, this is the knowledge that separates skilled labor from manual labor, and machining is (was, RIP cnc button pushers) skilled labor.
At the end of the day for most metal machining you’ll need between 50hp and 100hp to be up to modern standards. If you want to get that through steam or electric motors or whatever that’s up to you
Torque is the real limiting factor. You can always gear up or down for whatever you’re working on, but at the end of the day you need enough torque to get the work done. And a proper milling machine needs A LOT of torque.
You don’t need an electric motor. You just need enough spin. I’ve seen old mills and lathes that run on steam. An electric motor just happens to be very convenient with our current technology.
Sure, but it’s not as impressive (imo) when you also need a computer control system, a bunch of circuitry and electronics, and a whole mess of software to make it work in the end. A mill just needs enough spin and it runs exactly as intended.
Pretty much anything in a machine shop made in the last 80 years or so. So many people turn up their noses at anything that isn’t computer controlled anymore. Yknow what a big old mill can do that a CNC can’t? It can make every single part needed to make a new mill. It’s a self replicating machine with the right know how. People don’t respect that kind of quality anymore.
Why bother with gas if resources aren’t an issue? Something savagely luxurious about cooking over wood. Primal but decadent.
I’m just happy ig is letting porn through. Cooters and hooters out and about is an indicator of a healthy social media environment
Lmfao. You don’t beat the system by obeying the system. You burn it to the ground a build a new system, with hookers and blackjack.
“Seeing as your honor shows a 7, the prosecution will stand on 19.”
defense also with 17 “Hit us, your honor”
judge throws down a 4, half the courtroom bursts into cheers and the other into tears
Puberty ends at about 21-23 for women and 23-25 in men. The brain does some crazy af pruning of neurons between 13 and 23. While the actual hormone flood starts early, the entire process takes much longer to complete on a brain function level.
The stock market holds value because people believe it holds value. There is nothing actually backing any of that up. We dumb monkies just like watching number go up and will ensure number goes up at all costs. It’s how capitalism works.
Donate to Sikh kitchens. Core tenant of their religion is simple acts of kindness for the sake of being kind. They take everyone in at Sikh kitchens. Even cities in Texas and CA that like to ban feeding the homeless can’t do shit about these kitchens because it is recognized as a part of their worship.
Man that is a hard take. Amy Shumer is a female clone of nick swardson minus the creativity, which is miniscule but significant in this comparison. Both of them peaked at high school humor and never got over it.
Members only. All AFGE local positions are volunteer (unpaid) positions. While you are allowed some time during working hours to conduct union business as a federal employee, its like 2 hours 2 or 3 times a week. And the system for hiring and retaining federal employees is designed to weed out firecrackers like me who both understand their rights and have the spine to stand up and say something about them. Good luck building a revolution out of a population specifically selected to be meek and obedient.
AFGE does not fight back unless there is a political statement to be made. I was hired as a federal employee in 2023 and endured 6 months of rights violations, gaslighting from management, and incompetence from HR. When I made complaints, I was shitcanned. When I went to the union, I was told that they had no representation since the last president of the local resigned in 2022. I was told “arbitrations are expensive” when I filed grievances that the union refused to back. I was told “probationary employees have no rights” despite my union contract very much specifying otherwise. The ONLY reason AFGE is getting off its ass now is because AFGE as an organization is being threatened. They don’t care about their union members. They only care about their own fucking paycheck.
Why limit yourself to real materials? Just whip up a few hundred thousand miles of superconducting cable and then set your price.
If you have to quibble about things being possible, just figure out graphene batteries/capacitors and you’re set forever.
Ohhhhh. With the thing under the platter it looks like a stainless steel dog bowl.
I remember an officer in the USCG accused of rape while I worked as a welder on base. Guy had to paint the fire lane on curbs for a month while his superiors quietly hushed up the incident so as to not disturb the guys advancement prospects (he was the kid of some higher rank admin).
I’m sure that taught him a lesson
