If someone says "if a friend used ai to make me a gift like in TFA, I'd be pretty offended" and not spell out what TFA means and make me ask ai, I'll be shaking my head

Many option to have a set time (best if selectable, 30, 45, 60 - hard/med/easy) per word, and a set time per game - 6, 8, 10 (hard/med/easy) minutes

How do you tell if the bug was your responsibility vs. something they changed after?

Yes, I expected annotations, so please add. I know you named the site 30 papers, but I don't think anyone will hold you to it if you add more papers to it as you read and annotate more, or allow others to do so.

For a site that's named mechanical pencil, its mechanical pencil page is too simple. It should add the shake mechanical pencil and the rotating mechanical pencil where the tip rotates 40 deg or so on every click next.

Shameless plug - https://foldmation.com

Big backlog of folds to approve seems like it's ignored. I'm in the middle of fixing some rendering issues hence I haven't approve them yet. Rendering fixes and fold approvals should be up in a few weeks.

Try the RAZR style folding phones. It trades length for thickness which is a godsend for me. I hate how unpocketable phones has been ever since like 10 years ago.

The face and eyes with the chainsaw looks so satire. Is that how you got the name? Hope you are getting enough sales as it does look useful.

New comment by fuzzythinker in "Tesla reveals two Robotaxi crashes involving teleoperators"

fuzzythinker — Sun, 17 May 2026 05:12:58 +0000

90ms is absolutely not an acceptable delay. On a 25mph road, each 90ms is .0006 mile ~= 1 meter. Latency goes both ways, so that is a possible 1 meter before operator reacts and another meter before the corrective action takes place. Like other comment mentioned, remote operations can only be used for high-level instructions (or simpler highway driving).

Can you explain what makes the Brompton design genius?

Edit: the top comment (at this time) has a youtube link that shows it fold/unfold in like 8 secs. I can see the genius in it now

"No friction no shine" is easier to remember and get since it's analogous to "no pain no gain"
