For engineering equipment it’s often impossible to deal with the manufacturer. Your purchasing, training, calibration and trouble shooting has to be done by local resellers who do all this. It can be a huge pain in the ass and just slows everything down unless you get a rare reseller that really knows their shit.

Cancel now! It’s incredibly convoluted process that makes you think you’ve done it but no, there’s always one more confirm screen hiding behind a tiny button

Not without paying licencing fees for Hannibal Lecter first!

Yeah I bought a bunch of shares 3 years ago, cashing a big chunk out soon for a decent profit

Oh the downvotes!

It’s still funny

yes you can. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11655566/

Wearing them is no problem. They are common gifts for people leaving, we give carved greenstone to friends from overseas who vist. It’s customary to only wear it if it’s given to you, it’s bad luck to buy yourself one. Though carvers will make a show of gifting it to you for koha if you really do want to buy one for yourself.

Learn the customs and the meanings and spread the Tikanga as you wear it.

Cheap sausages here are commonly referred to as ‘lips and assholes’ or ‘hooves and sawdust’. We’re pretty blunt about these things.

I read all those and every test has reduced the amount that the speed of light could be anisotropic. From “it could be twice as fast in this direction to the other” to “it could be a small fraction of the relativistic effect of moving a clock through space.” Every improvement in measurement trends towards isotropic.

The clocks involved in gps are accurate enough that they have to take relatively into account for gps to be accurate. That’s far more accurate than you need to measure the speed of light.

Sync them right next to each other, then move one of them. The other way you could test this theory is to have one clock tell the other the time over an optical link and then have the other do the same. If the speed of light was different in different directions. Each would measure a different lag.

With a detector and very accurate clocks, it would be easy to say “I’m going to send a pulse at 2pm, record when you receive it” that’s measuring it in one direction

The free data source was cut off, there’s several replacements of varying quality depending on region. The met.no one is good for me.

They are switching off the copper network in NZ. Suburb by suburb at the moment. But 87% have fibre, up to 8Gb/s to the home.

Unless this is a turnkey plugin that takes very few people to implement. It would be A. Too difficult and B. Too easy for anyone who knows about it to whistle blow it’s existence

Cute!
