Wow… This count have happened in the 2010’s with the anti-gaming feminist and conservative movement at the time.

If only they knew to go after payment processors instead of identity groups.

Soda spoon eh? Always thought that was the tea spoon.

So what about the table spoon?

Will it take care of the nano-plastics for me or is that an upcoming firmware update?

A mindset of quality.

CNC Machines that are built in Japan are so much Mount Betterest than their ‘Made in America’ counterparts. Even under the same company name.

Visit any shop that requires quality around the world and you’ll see Japanese made machines almost everywhere.

Is it surprising that a publicly traded company is going to drive down quality to meet (or in spirit areospace’s case - attempt to make) profits?

The union also has clashed with Spirit over whether machinists should ever be responsible for checking their own work. Workers say having separate inspectors sign off on individual work is critical for quality control; Spirit and Boeing executives say that technological advances have reduced the need for separate inspectors in some cases.

Bad bad idea. Do not let machinists sign off on a inspection report. The incentive to hide mistakes is far too great.

Not seeing the issue here, that’s ju5T DAD b0d. /s

Nasa has a video up now

Perhaps a dedicated computer backup drive? I use veeam for years and it’s saved my ass a bunch of times.

I haven’t watched one of these in years now.

Which runs/races are y’all looking forward to?

I’m a sucker for rom-coms. Liking this series so far

Saudi Arabia is going to love this news.

Wtf happened to Martha Stewart? That is her in the middle?

Valve seems okay with TF2 mods on the older engine… See https://tf2classic.com/

I feel like the TF2Classic ran into dmca issues earlier in their dev cycle as well.

Edit: yes they did https://twitter.com/tf2classic/status/1436328611485818880

I wish the article gave better explanation to how hard it is rather than just stating that it’s not brittle… Could revolutionize the cutting tools industry if it’s harder than cubicBoronNitride (CBN).

It seems like the argument is that at the lower price bracket, stepper motors offer higher performance than what a equivalently priced servo+encoder+controller combo can perform.

I felt like what I was reading in this thread wasn’t matching up with that I see out in industry… concerns about ‘price’ didn’t come up until your post.

Diamond turning machines are inherently low torque, low speed, AND nanoscale operations which uses servos for driving its respective axis. See precitech -youtube and in stark comparison Roeder’s 5axis optical mold machining. Wire EDM’s were all driven by servo motors until linear motors became popular. Even those famous JingDiao test samples are made on machines driven by servos.

Welp, time to run the chicken through the reverse osmosis system too.

Rolls up sleeves

Ohhh interesting, just grabbed it on F-droid. I’ll be playing around with this for a while.

Steppers have a higher precision to a servos higher speed and torque (but torque that’s not constant.)

Just trying to understand this. Then how come all CNC precision machines use a servo instead of a stepper? I mean there are some ridiculously accurate machines that can position itself over and over varying under a micron (<.001mm) but the manufacturers choose servo over stepper. Is it for the sake of holding torque that servos have to be used over steppers?

Most, if not all, aerospace tools that take a measurement requires periodic calibration and assurance that the tool is performing to spec.

There can be thousands of unique tools that must pass through its own respective calibration process and documentation. Micrometers, calipers, torque wrenches, and even scales.

Having a networked tool can save the hassle of operators mis-reading or just plain ignoring the calibration sticker. Also, knowing the “location” of the tool on an inventory sheet isn’t quite like knowing which side of a 747 for the wrench that is due for calibration.

Also this is just me hypothesizing… I presume there are a number of other benefits like automated logging of torque values for every single bolt installed with such tool. When the FAA audits for installation information regarding a single screw on a plane’s 3rd row window side infotainment system’s upper left mount… The data is easier to find.

This is all part of “industry 4.0” connected manufacturing for more efficient and lean manufacturing. Collect and process any data you could ever want to make the decisions for a manufacturer to do more with even less.

Clear sarcasm getting blasted.

Poe’s law says otherwise. Plenty of goof-balls here that would make such a claim boldfaced.
