I see people all the time who seem to go overboard

I don’t have an answer to the question, but wanting to point out that ‘overboard’ here is highly subjective. For example, from my (poor person’s) point of view, I would consider five plastic surgeries for a young lad like yourself way overboard.

Maybe not ‘main’ and ‘appendix’? Both could be, like, actual wives idk.

I think op doesn’t mean ‘first wive’ as in ex-wife.

The other commenter gave you the right answer already. But I meant ‘in practice’ literally, as in, if the sexuality of someone matters to decide your course of action, like flirting with them or introducing a friend, they basically mean the same.

Now if you wanted to get technical, pansexual people are technically bisexual (?). Pansexuality would be a special case of bisexuality in which the attraction is equal across the entire gender spectrum.

But as rarWars said it’s hard to put identity into strict rigid definitions. If you think it too hard this model means that every sexuality is just a special case of bisexuality as well, ace is a special case of pan…

‘Destroying’ money, either physically burning banknotes or just setting some numbers to a lower value in a digital ledger, does not remove value from the economy. When you create money, usually through debt, it takes its value from the currency that already exists. Money is also destroyed all the time through the payment of debt but not as fast as it’s created, that’s why its value mostly goes down (prices mostly go up): Money printer goes BRRRRRRRRR, money burner goes brrr.

What matters for an economy, and therefore the value of its currency, is the value they create–simply put, how much resources they exploit and how efficiently. The most important resource (in my opinion at least) is people.

So if you want to remove value from an economy you have to take those resources away, or make them hard or impossible to exploit efficiently by them, or make them obsolete…

In theory: Bisexuality is attraction to more than one gender, while pansexuality is attraction regardless of gender. For example a bisexual person could be attracted to women and nb people but not to men.

In practice: Mostly synonyms, some years ago ‘pansexual’ was kind of a buzzword to mean ‘inclusive bisexual’ (as in can also be attracted to trans and nb people), but I haven’t met a bi person that wasn’t ‘inclusive’ or that wasn’t attracted to a particular gender like the example above.

Setting aside that none of this would be happening without Israel fuckery, this is a new low. Scalping literal humanitarian aid to resell at a thousand to your starving neighbors… ‘Your children look quite like skeletons, you must be pretty desperate, so I’m rising the price!’. Fuck this world mate…

Nope that’s French, I think, my French est terrible, but definitely not Spanish.

Sounds like a good plan, I’d seriously consider a Canarian accent if I could pick mine!

Does someone actually know how to turn this off on android? My work phone does this all the time. It’s a car! I was looking at that map under that modal and trying to listen to the directions you reduced to a whisper thank you very much!!

That’s an excellent question, and like most excellent questions I think the answer is ‘it depends’ but I would bet for ‘yes’.

First, ‘noise’ is a part of the signal we don’t want or we don’t care about. In op’s example they talk about ‘two servers’ one quieter and another louder. The sounds of these sources is the part of the signal we care about so the sound of the louder server isn’t noise in any case. As long as the sound of the quieter server rises above the noise floor and the recording device have the dynamic range to record the sum of the sounds you should be able to ‘measure’ it (as in pointing to differences in the readings when you turn it on and off) and maybe cancel the other server to some extent by processing it.

Now to this point is a yes but ‘it depends’ because while the sound of the louder server isn’t noise it can rise the noise floor depending on the acoustics of the server room. Some server rooms have lots of reverb and echo, specially when they’re not very full, but in my experience most don’t, many put these plastic curtains to contain the AC and they dampen sound reflections pretty effectively. But with bad enough acoustics, a very loud ‘loud server’, and a quite quiet ‘quiet’ one the sound floor could rise over the quieter server sound.

Disclaimer: this is from the top of my head, I’m tired and not a hundred percent sure this is correct. Don’t take any important decisions based in my autistic rambling.

Others have commented on the physical process of interference, waves add up but also cancel out. But the server sound ‘disapeaearing’ is not caused by interference, in fact it doesn’t disappear at all. It’s a phenomenon called ‘masking’ caused by your auditory perception. Louder or lower sounds mask quieter or higher pitched sounds.

Edit: and to add a bit to the answers, natural sound sources add up more than they cancel out on average, so it will get louder the more sources you add. But sound pressure level is also inversely proportional to the squared distance, so there’s a limit to the max db you can get just adding more similar sources, with a higher limit with higher source density, ie the closer to each other you put them. I leave the formula for this as an exercise for the reader.

I guess it’s a stylistic choice to express emphasis instead of using italics or bold text.

Yep I know. These are the ones the company buys. I’ve tried others when I had to buy a box while out and about but n a hardware store or even a supermarket. Latex gets destroyed very fast, I didn’t notice much of a difference with vinyl… but you are right I have to try if some other material goes better. The thing is I don’t have a clue what the fuck they put in the inks and nobody seems to be able to tell me.

I sincerely doubt these newcomers can achieve at their first try what well established manufacturers haven’t through revision after revision of their machines. The price is the first clue, flatbed uv printers this size start at about ten thousand. Also, important information like which printhead they mount, printing speed (m2/h), uv lamp wattage… is missing which is suspicious at best.

Not at all like a resin printer. Imagine a hybrid: the top part is an inkjet printer with a printhead that goes side-to-side shooting ink but instead of paper sliding under it there’s a flatbed not unlike the one in a filament 3D printer. The ink is cured by a uv lamp (or more than one, but I suspect this printer has only one and very small and weak since the smaller lamp I work with costs more than this hole printer) usually fixed to the side of the printhead ‘carriage’.

No. Just don’t! You nerds, tinkerers, hackers, makers… listen to me: DO NOT BUY THIS.

I didn’t think I’d have to read the words ‘Consumer UV printer’ ever. It’s just a deranged concept. UV printers are the worst kind of machines there are. Imagine an inkjet printer but a thousand times worse, I’m not joking. I work with these, but professional/industrial ones, in professional printshops, and they are an absolute toothache for my customers (again, professionals that make a living with printers and similar equipment). The customers like me, because I’m the one solving them problems (even if the bill for the solutions is more often than not a few thousands) but I’m sure the salespeople look under their cars every morning.

This will only be a hole in your pocket, a piece of junk taking up space in your home, and even a hazard to your health or your kids’ or pets’–UV ink is some nasty shit before curing, some of them make my hands itch even trough the nitrile gloves, and you have to handle and dispose of the waste ink properly ie hiring some waste management service.

It’s true that you can make beautiful things with them, but for a home it’s just not worth it, just take your designs and your media (the things you want to print on) to a print shop and have them printed there.

You are right, it was an oversimplification, 25% is hardly a ‘rare exception’.

In my defense I have to say that it was late, I was already in bed, and very sleepy. And I knew that, this being lemmy, some other nerd would come with a more thorough explanation.
