honest question. Why would you pretend?

Good, buttons last you longer as well.

I used messageease for a month or so but was unable to improve :/ https://www.exideas.com/ME/index.php

Yeah those codecs always get you.

• Laser holography and optics. After I took an photonics course I became obsessed. I am attempting to build a laser holography setup to capture “true” 3D reflections on a piece of film. Even getting cheap diode lasers to lase coherently at high currents is a challenge. It’s a black hole for money so I need to limit myself but it is just so fucking interesting.
• Cameras. I am not a good photographer but I love cameras. I can ramble on and on about every single function detail and the history too. I even built a scientific camera for my job from scratch. And beyond that I even started getting into the math behind distortion correction, stereo, panorama etc.
• 3D printing is a major rabbit hole. Especially if you’ve built your own printer.

I’ve just become a CAD hobo or squater you could say. There will always be one ““free”” piece of cad software that caters to the casual 3D printer and I’ve just accepted that they will inevitably raise the price and I’ll just have to jump ship again. But, at least I get to keep all the knowledge and that is what counts.

This has unironnically happened before (sort of) https://retractionwatch.com/2023/08/30/unethical-and-misleading-researcher-finds-his-name-on-editorial-boards-of-journals-hes-never-heard-of/

I just love how retraction watch just doesn’t hold back with statements like this

Loffroy also toned down the offense, saying he wouldn’t care if others had plagiarized his work.

They also just posted his picture on the top of the article.

This worked for me.

I don’t mind paying either, but I think that premium is just a bad deal.

I don’t know much about this CHWTIA. But I do know someone who works at Capgemini, can you tell me why they are considered exploitative? Genuinly curious.

Hmmm I’m more of a File.zip.tar.gz.epub.7z.xs guy

Huygens optics is really taking of, love that guy!

I really like Illinois EnergyProf Talks a lot about energy, reactors, turbines, solar you name it

Can’t wait to sell my excess brain power to crypto miners

I’ve been looking into custom roms but for a bit but it will take a while before I feel confident enough to try it. I want to try it but I’m afraid that I will get locked out certain services like banks or ms365 for work. I’ll look into this Magishide tool.

Do banking apps work?

Like, do people know that you can just go there and have a tour?
