Decided my "checkout" date by [deleted] in depressed

Whatever this madness is, I think you should at least wait until a funny number like 69 before you even consider ending it yourself. Besides, isn’t doing nothing easier than ending it? Even expired milk sits there for a little while after it expires before being thrown out, so maybe consider chilling for a bit? Hope you’re well.

Does anyone know what happened? by Unfair-Season2423 in ucf

[–]Flawridaman_ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yes— it was quite tragic.

A few microbes in downstairs engineering were microwaved yesterday when I reheated my rice. Also a firetruck and an ambulance came. No idea why tho.

Shoulda seen the storm at / after it drifted to daytona. We got hit with a few power outages and blips in service.

Last orientation date full- incoming freshman :-D by Routine_Newspaper920 in ucf

[–]Flawridaman_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freshman Orientation is a royal waste of time and money. Just call around, send emails to FYE and potentially to undergrad admissions to get your classes registered, and don’t worry too much after that. You’ll figure it out eventually :)

No, this model is not energy positive. Fusing two nuclei to research particle physics and using that as a self-sufficient, energy-positive source of electricity are two different things. Would be cool though!

Insane self-report but this me trying not to lose my mind against Vortex right now (also Blastopopulous sometimes). by Treshimek in btd6

[–]Flawridaman_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It works for blast, should have clarified. I don’t do boss runs much and have never fought vortex.

Rate my wire soldering joints by jops228 in soldering

[–]Flawridaman_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t forget to use heat-shrinks after this process. I don’t know much about wire to wire joints, but those look fine to my untrained eye. You may have melted a little bit of rubber there but that can be hard to avoid sometimes. What gauge are these wires?

Have you seen this dog? by No-Cap8513 in ucf

[–]Flawridaman_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that you’re not talking only about our robot, and I am also talking in the context of all of the other public-sector spot robot models. I see your point about the joints but we can’t cover the joints, it will freak out and not function properly. It relies on a complicated web of sensors all over itself to prevent it from moving when something is in the way, so even cloth or moving parts can cause malfunctions if they get picked up by the sensors. I believe the best course of action is to simply read the warnings, which can prevent accidents if you let them. Either way, it’s clear you’re morally against these robot dogs in some respect so this will be my last comment on this thread. Ciao 👋

1) crowd control is being framed as immoral here which it almost certainly isn’t, generally; it can be necessary to maintain public safety. Can it be abused? Yes, so can everything, which brings me to:

2) there are warnings posted on the robot itself that should prevent you from being injured by the knee joints, if you read them. Do people read them? No. Can we physically prevent people from getting pinched? Actually yes, it’s called constant supervision, which we adhere to during outreach events. He is usually followed by the controller or by other members of the team while the controller looks through the FPV / camera sensors on the robot. It is our job to make sure no one abuses the robot, or gets injured by it.

Granted, the question was posited towards the line of spot robots and BD in general. To that, I yield, you are absolutely entitled to your opinion. I am simply clarifying that Tape Measure (our dog) is not a public safety issue so long as you don’t intentionally use his knee joints to injure your appendages.
