I got those two tiny models in the pictures. They are replacement parts for headphones, the pins that go into the ear cups to attach them to the headband bracket. The one with the hooks are meant to be slotted into place, then be fixated in place from inside with the plug and a tiny amount of superglue.
The hole in the middle is for the cable.
Does normal Resin have both strength AND flexibility for this? #SLA#3DPrinting
Today in Labor History February 4, 1974: The Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) kidnapped Patty Hearst, granddaughter of American publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst, in Berkeley, California. One of the SLA’s demands for releasing Hearst was for her family to pay for millions of dollars’ worth of food to be given out free the poor and unhoused of the San Francisco Bay Area. The Hearst complied, with various community organizations distributing 100,000 bags of groceries at 16 sites in 4 counties, before violence brought the program to a halt. The violence occurred because the crowds were bigger than expected and workers started throwing boxes of food off of moving trucks. As a captive, Patty Hearst was held in a closet, blindfolded, with her hands tied, raped and threatened repeatedly with death. She was later offered the choice of freedom, or joining the SLA. She chose the latter. Consequently, she was later sentenced to 35 years in prison for her complicity in SLA robberies. After several years in prison, her sentence was commuted by President Carter. President Clinton pardoned her. Congressional Representative Leo Ryan was murdered by the Jim Jones cult in Guyana several weeks after collecting signatures for her release. Actor John Wayne, of all people, expressed frustration that everyone accepted the idea that Jones had brainwashed hundreds of his followers into mass suicide, but wouldn’t accept that the SLA could have brainwashed a teenage girl. After her release, Hearst went on to become an actress, appearing in several John Waters films, as well as many others.
For teaching purposes, I am looking for a #linguistics or #SLA paper that was written in #RMarkdown or #Quarto and for which data and code are available in #OpenAccess. The simpler the analyses, the better. Looking forward to your suggestions! Self-promotions are explicitly welcome! #RStats
T-Mobile Home Internet is oddly faster with a VPN.
It's over a cellular network, which often has a slower download and faster upload. This implies the bottleneck is in the band (congested tower / network).
Generally speaking, switching to a VPN should make it worse, not better
Yet, the numbers don't lie. I will have great download speeds and normal upload, when using a VPN.
Changing the DNS with or without VPN, doesn't matter, it's always faster with the VPN.
