Same but we should both admit we would probably change what we made.

The people at Gillette are working on five.

That's old news. They solved five a while ago.

I heard they were researching up to 18, but most of the blades were curved and really short.

Absolutely. And run faster, cheaper and safer.

Just as long as you still have all the documentation and the spec was done right and updated as things changed over the whole lifetime of the system up to now. And a good test harness. And industry-specific knowledge.


Got Russian from it once. As a child of the '80s I jumped right on it, but the explanation seemed believable.

Still sleeping with one eye open.


Am I the only one who thinks those look damned cool? If they provided some kind of stupid engine option to definitively hoon the thing, I’d be all over it.

To be clear, exterior design only. The interior looks stupid. The seats look deadly to me at 50 with back problems.

It's a concept car. Concept cars are always full of wacky nonsense no one wants. The production model will just be a regular car.

So you say but I’m still waiting for that Pontiac beach car with two hand vacs built in.

Concerns with the dogshit I stepped in aside, I had a wonderful time going barefoot through the tulips.

> White Brits are the only native/indigenous Brits to London

Bullshit. They are Johann Come Later Germans who killed off the Celtic Brits.


You think Celtic Brits don't count as white? Have you seen us? We're some of the pastiest looking people you will ever meet. I could get sunburnt opening the fridge.

Oh hon, I am your Irish people transported across a sea. In this part of my family, “happily” by personal decision, as opposed to the other half that wound up in Australia. The sun and I have made our peace.

But I’ll happily burn my skin red to protest racist shits. And some of them open with this old trope. Apparently my response is almost as old a trope. But that’s not what Boudicca told us when we fought the Romans.


A friend of mine phrases it as getting sunburn from browsing Expedia.

That is also bullshit (although a popular myth, deliberately cultivated by 19th-century English supremacists to justify subjugating their Celtic neighbors). Every region in Britain has a majority of Insular Celtic DNA on average (though the fraction varies). Even in the most heavily Anglo-Saxon regions like East Anglia, Germanic DNA is in the minority.

And of course the Celtic Britons replaced the Neolithic farmers, who replaced the Mesolithic foragers, and so on. "Indigenous" becomes meaningless with so many population replacements.


This feels unfair given this is clearly the work of the state actor what defrosted all them military freezers last month. https://signalandsilence.substack.com/p/i-think-someone-hack...

That doesn't seem very "clear" to me. The article you linked mentioned those were made to go into defrost mode (and it didn't mention any brand). Meanwhile the affected Samsung devices are located in Korea and Samsung admitted it was due to their firmware update.

Also I don't see how it's unfair to expect refrigerators that cost a grand to do their one job without firmware.


Stay frosty, sheep. Or otherwise woolen mammal.

Thank-you that link - it is very interesting. The cause I wonder about is another A.I. agent attack.

> have to keep enforcing proper git usage etc. so I can reproduce this work

Depending on what you mean here, it might be worth looking at jj, which works with git repositories. One of the features is that everything gets committed at change time (kind of) which may or may not be helpful to you here.
