Well, "everyone" being radicals online who think that everything is some sort of call to war. Normal people realize what it is. There are sprinkles of sane people here on Lemmy, but they're drowned out by the crazies.
It's not only that, but FDM produces many tiny ridges for any organic matter to latch onto and grow in. It's simply not a reasonable solution for something like this. Sure, Nylon has good interlayer adhesion, but it's also a bitch to print.
Plenty of systems have taken a lifetime of abuse, PEX tubing being used industrially for its amazing longevity and that's what I use in my home as well.
I'm betting you were raised to consider recycling as a consumer-focused solution to
<insert any of myriad global issues>
, like many of us. 🥲😅
What are you on about now? Was this some attempt at an insult or something I'm too daft to pick up?
If these weren't made using the FDM process, they could be quite useful; but as-is the FDM process is weak along the Z axis, and these kinds of fittings aren't going to withstand a lifetime of abuse -- not only that, the kinds of plastics we're printing with aren't really regulated to any kind of degree, so depending on what kind of things are in the water, you could just be pumping large amounts of microplastics into your system by using something like this.
It's a great avenue for research, but we need more robust methods of printing for something like this.
This isn't a grammar issue. In fact, GP is mad that the OP used proper grammar, and is using the letter "A" as a mallet to claim that OP is using DEI as a derogatory term.
The people on Lemmy are programmed to seek victimhood however they can. They believe that being a victim makes them righteous in some way.
Spoken exactly like someone who knows absolutely nothing about how blockchains work. Bitcoin is a popular one, but blockchains don't need to be like this - what you're spewing is hyperbole and ignorance. Votes aren't tallied in the way you speak of either - they don't immediately go into a ledger just because you selected a name, all voting systems have multiple safeguards already to allow multiple opportunities to select different candidates at each point in the step. The last step of registering your vote is when they get added.
Vitriol and ignorance, wonderful combination here.
Better than WHAT? Why is voting integrity something that you people often have such an issue with? Why can't we use an open source, blockchain verified ledger system that is immutable and unchangeable so that we retain anonymity, and further increase verifiability? Our voting systems shouldn't be closed-source secretive software controlled by a few elites -- The best security is often done in the open, so that everyone can work their best to ensure that it's secure.
I'm not talking about voterID or any of that bullshit, I'm talking back-end stuff; and the problem that dominion have had with their voting machines, and the fact that nearly every state that used to be a toss-up (Florida, etc) now uses a different vendor than northern states.
I may be in the minority here, but I didn't think Kamala was THAT unpopular. I still have my suspicions that the elections have massive voter fraud happening. For her to not win ANY of the toss-up states is...interesting to say the least.
We need some new voter integrity protections put into place. Yeah yeah, I get that mentioning that is unpopular with dems, as it's often equated with voter suppression - but last election cycle we had one black woman who had her voting rights restored get put through the legal wringer on if she was allowed to vote or not; meanwhile I had white folks in The Villages (FL), casting votes for dead people, get caught, and basically nothing happened to them. (Fines, Community Service, no jail time)
Yeah, and a great post too - because some of your points here just point out that everyone ELSE have deprecated PhysX as well. Unity and Unreal both dropped it long ago. It's basically a moot point for 99.9% of people playing games.
Instead of using a PPU on the GPU, most people have focused on GPGPU physics calculations instead. The idea behind PhysX was a difficult one to launch in the first place. Given that most chip real-estate is going to these VPUs, I'm not surprised at all that they ditched the PPU for a more generalized version.
What if I told you NOBODY's opinions of you meant shit?
