  • Okay but what about the Japanese people that have long torsos but very thick muscular short legs? I’ve noticed that in both men and women. Its counterintuitive for karate for example. Short legs don’t help for high kicks and such. Bicycles would be awesome with short powerful legs though. Key cars would fit fine. Anyway its just a stereotype. I don’t think all Japanese people have that body shape. I don’t think the small hand thing actually helps. Its probably more like the people working tend to be kids maybe? And they want to cover it up or justify it somehow?


  • I’m glad I blocked that shit. If you ever try to IP block YouTube get ready to wack-a-mole. YouTube/google have IP after IP after IP of backup addresses and ways around you. Like the worse sales man you ever met…try to get him out the front door and suddenly he’s under the couch suggesting scratch free flooring or furniture feet that really protect your floors. Its annoying as heck.


  • Specially when you realize that AI is for more than music, literature and other forms of illegal data processing. It can be used in a huge amount of other ways. One way for example would be to replace our president with a Combination of 4 magistrates and 1 AI…the republicans get 2, the Democrats get 2. AI gets to propose actions to take but has 0 authority in doing anything. Once a proposal has been made to do something, the 4 people get to discuss the action and implement it. If the implementation ends in a tie, then AI can ask the people to vote by phone. AI would then break the tie via the people’s popular vote. And no more electoral college, just use AI to pick the president based on the popular vote.









  • Only the non critical to function parts can be plastic. IE, the barrel can’t be plastic. And you can use literally anything else other than 3D printed stuff.

    So why is 3D printed even an issue. Anything… A CNC, scissors, metal, a grinder, wood, springs, screws…can be made part of or be used to make anything else. Making things is not magic and a 3D printer is not magic either.

    The highest pressure rated plastic has a Ts or just maybe 28ksi. But with 15% elongation and a really weak modulus. So you can make toys basically.






  • Because those who dedicate themselves to finding the best information would have the best AI specific to that information. I would want my question routed to Joe’s shop and not jiffy lubes shop.

    Maybe your question is about photography or maybe specific to photography chemistry or maybe to the mechanisms of a shutter or maybe you want to known how to setup a second curtain flash or maybe you want to known what specific wavelengths your first doublet filters for or what wavefront shape the light beam reflecting off the camera’s sensor will have or what sort of material can absorb it best so it doesn’t reflect back as a haze. Who knows! Well the very best people who do that sort of thing know, and they got all the books about it! So why not share that information if the books are just sitting there every day just collecting dust.

    Sure something like this hasn’t been done yet. But its not because it can’t be done. Its because it’s difficult to do. But all the pieces are already there. We just need a few good puzzle masters to put it all together.
