The article is fun and not long, but here is the link the article includes directly to the game. https://trustandsafety.fun/

I get the same math... Seems fucky but... This is assuming the sum of centripetal acceleration and gravity at the peak of the loop is zero. It may be physically possible for a cat to learn to manage a loop with such velocity but I imagine a cat wouldn't be able to maintain a stride through a zero-g portion of the loop the first time it tried it.

So, instead let's throw an assumption that the cat must maintain at minimum sum of -1g at the maxima of the loop. That may be badly phrased, assuming the cat must have at minimum a net force of at least one g between it's paws and the surface of the loop it was currently using to accelerate...

3.5 meters = 11.5 feet

Radius, so still a freaking 7 meter diameter loop feels incredible...

...Exposed Industry Greed...

"Exposed"?

...freeform flashy fashy propaganda wordsalad

FTFY

This is the Sound of Freedom conman, right?

Thank you for this recommendation!

I read his final statement as an acknowledgement that "while this sucks, no shit I'm going to do it because cats are necessary for functional human habitation"

I use pelletized bedding instead of clumping litter. It's still disgusting, it still tracks everywhere, it still needs to be cleaned but it smells less and it's waayyy cheaper (that link is $7 for a 40lb bag of the stuff)

Thank you for copying that!

Love it!

Marmalade Hitler is so satisfyingly condescending...

Fountain soda costs a few pennies per gallon, the lost earnings of which would ordinarily be counted as small beans compared to the wages saved by reducing the bodies you need to pay to run your restaurant. The pandemic taught companies though that you don't need a body for every job, you need only as many as it takes to keep the door unlocked. The single person whipped and frantic doing the jobs of eight people will just have to work harder and maybe next year they'll get a fifteen cent raise

Part of what creates in me so much faith in communism is my profession vs my interests.

I am an engineer. If I didn't need to sell my labor I would be an engineer who solves problems and creates progress. Since I live in America, I don't.

Wait fuck, to the dictionary...

EDIT: well sheit

This is the first I'm learning how responsible she, and by extension Supreme Court Fucker Clarance, were for this part of our wet fart of a democracy's descent into dysentery.

That last one is straight up Ender Wiggin

I thought about this a bit actually in my earlyish recovery, though I never did confirm my thoughts with any doctors who might know more about the mechanics I was interpreting me perceptions of.

In summary, I don't think it would help (for those with injuries exactly identical to mine*). The problem as I constructed it in my mind, was;

1. A problem with my ability to interpret balance from my senses.

• I could still sense all the things I could pre-injury, but the signals would travel down the wires of my body with different kinds of "noise" than my brain had learned to adapt to for the first 20+ years of my life.

2. A problem with my ability to control the fine-motor aspects of all my balance-affecting body parts.

• The relative position and momentum of every moving and not-moving part of your body contribute to your overall "state" of balance. Now my control to each part of my body had (similar to the sensing syste's "wires") different levels of noise to adapt for than it has taught itself to deal with so far.

I think a system like the Exoskeleton referred to here would probably fix or at least greatly reduce the second problem, but the first problem would require, at the very least, a "processor" that could replace the thing that determines my balance from all my various senses (my brain, at least one part of it).

I mean, but teaching them to respond to my various swears is so much fun

I guess I agree with that principle. I'm perhaps unfairly imagining giving more context in the article would have been a better "product".

Hah, I lived in that shit hole when I was still a conservative, my dad still denies climate change
