Hurlshort Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 During the pandemic, Wednesdays turned into our meeting and planning day, and it was a huge relief. It became a great chance to catch up and recover. I would love us to go back to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromnir Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 "The final image, taken some 4 miles away from the asteroid and just one second before impact, is noticeably incomplete, with much of the screen blacked out. NASA says DART's impact occurred during the time when that image was being transmitted to Earth, resulting in a partial picture." now for some perspective, to get even the most vague sense o' galactic scale proportions, the speed of light is 186,000 miles per second. other than the sun, the nearest star in our galaxy to earth is more than four light years distant. is literal impossible for Gromnir to meaningful imagine such distances. we can solve for 10 to the nth power, but we got no foundation for grappling with the distances involved. HA! Good Fun! 1 "If there be time to expose through discussion the falsehood and fallacies, to avert the evil by the processes of education, the remedy to be applied is more speech, not enforced silence."Justice Louis Brandeis, Concurring, Whitney v. California, 274 U.S. 357 (1927) "Im indifferent to almost any murder as long as it doesn't affect me or mine."--Gfted1 (September 30, 2019) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raithe Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) https://www.dwbowen.com/plant-machete Quote plant machete This installation enables a live plant to control a machete. plant machete has a control system that reads and utilizes the electrical noises found in a live philodendron. The system uses an open source micro-controller connected to the plant to read varying resistance signals across the plant’s leaves. Using custom software, these signals are mapped in real-time to the movements of the joints of the industrial robot holding a machete. In this way, the movements of the machete are determined based on input from the plant. Essentially the plant is the brain of the robot controlling the machete determining how it swings, jabs, slices and interacts in space.

Azdeus Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 37 minutes ago, Raithe said: The entire interview series is pretty nice, it's on youtube if you search for James Cameron's Story of Science Fiction 1 Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.
