I've often felt frustrated by the processing fees. Can you elaborate on handling this yourself? Which EU country are you based in?

Interesting read. Though it says the nuclear fission happens in the crust and mantle, not the core.

Was this before the introduction of the IOSS rules? I can't imagine picking something up directly at customs. International shipping volume has increased a lot, customs does not ha…

That actually is via the postal service (BPost). The postage rates are reasonable, it's just the fee that they add for handling the customs administration that is unreasonable. And…

The issue isn't the import duty and VAT, the issue is the 20€ or more fee that the shipping companies charge for the privilege of handling the customs administration for you. In Be…

> Correlation is correlated with causation! That's a great quote. I think I'll use that instead of "where there's smoke ..." from now on.

I was skeptical, the site seemed to only show renders, nothing practical. It looks real though: https://simonhackett.com/2021/05/23/redflow-gen3-zbm/ Datasheet: https://redflow.com…

Inflation is irrelevant if your stable coin is pegged to the currency that is inflating.

That's up to the developers, graphics settings should not be synced. Unfortunately some games just dump all settings in there. Steam Cloud docs explicitely mention this: https://pa…

Displacement is 1000nm, so 3 orders of magnitude less than 1mm. As for frequency response, looks like they tested up to 1000Hz. I see no reason why it wouldn't work at any frequenc…

I strongly agree, the innovation needed is in haptics on the actuator side. Can you expand on the static and low frequency? My impression was that if you're aiming for fingertips, …

1) That "ADHD is overdiagnosed" metastudy is frequently referenced, but always for the wrong reasons: "Overdiagnosis is defined here as occurring when a person is clinically diagno…

Yes, nylon strap is the way to go. Feels great, can get wet, far more durable. I bought this 18mm strap: https://aliexpress.com/item/33044774071.html And this tool: https://aliexpr…

The api looks very simple and easy, that's a very good sign. We've been doing similar stuff in python, mainly in combination with Pulumi automation. You can do some very fancy thin…

I really like the Mikado Method [0] when you find yourself shaving yak, at least when coding. When you see something that bothers you, you've got two choices: either fix it now, or…

You probably created a cname from the apex to www? This problem still exists today. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNAME_record : "If a CNAME record is present at a node, no ot…

Your throat mic example is when listening through a radio link, versus a direct connection with the dynamic microphone example. I'm sure the dynamic mic sounds better than the troa…

Yup. The amount of energy from a direct strike is simply too much. It already travelled a great distance through a highly resistive material (air), even if there is an "ideal" path…

Thanks for your comments. I don't understand much of it, but I will come back to it every now and then. I'm generally very satisfied with my Rilatine. It helps immensely, I can act…
