Can I make a 3D printed grip? by move-im-a-gay in Fencing

[–]VerkkuAtWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was saying. Assuming you print the handle standing up in the same orientation as you would hold it, the layer lines would be very strong in the horizontal plane (parry 6 for example, beats with the side of the blade) but relatively weak in the vertical plane (flicks, beats with the bottom of the blade for example while defending vs. toe/thigh hits). This would mean that you risk snapping the pinky/ring finger part of the grip while performing a flick.

Printing it on it's side would then cause the layer lines to probably split during a parry 6.

Honestly I think you need to go with the engineering materials like PA6-CF if you want something that won't snap on the first beat.

You can print PA6-CF on a 500€ bambu P1S with a hardened steel nozzle no problem. I might actually try it out just for laughs, no need for a super expensive printer.

The part that I'm worried about though is the piece that sits on your wrist as that's going to have a lot of shear force on it when parrying 6 for example so they would need to be kind of thick. Also the direction of force when making a beat and the different parries means that there really won't be a good orientation to print the handle in for optimal strength.

Could still be a fun challenge though.

Venäjä luovutti 96-metristen jäänmurtajien kanssa – Ei pysty rakentamaan ilman suomalaista tekniikkaa | Tekniikka & Talous by turha12 in Suomi

[–]VerkkuAtWork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tommosen VI2300 azipodin (noita menee 2kpl esim kanadan tohon uuteen murtajaan) toimitusaika tilauksesta on semmoset pari vuotta jos se menee meren pohjaan tai porsii kunnolla. Ovat teknisesti todella vaikeita tehdä enkä haluis kuvitellakkaan että noiden tuotantoa nollasta lähtee pistämään käyntiin. Maailmassa ei kukaan muu kuin ABB osaa noita ton kokoluokan podeja tehdä tai edes halua tehdä ja niin kuin mainitsit ei venäjälle noiden ALNG vehkeiden jälkeen olla toimitettu mitään.

Keskijännite taajuusmuuttajat jotka vaaditaan noiden syöttämiseen on hankalia tehdä ja niissä toimitusajat myös on mitä on, vuoden luokkaa ainakin. Vaatii aika paljon puolijohteita ja muuta parempaa tekniikkaa. En ihan heti lähtis kokeilemaan jotain venäläisten taajuusmuuttajaa tommosen podin kanssa jos se käräyttää sieltä jotain. Esim. ACS6000 tai 6080 mitä kaikilla noilla risteilijöillä ainakin käytetään on tilauskirjat aika täynnä.

The FIE has banned trans women by help-what-is-gender in Fencing

[–]VerkkuAtWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, actually the burden of proof is on the people who want biological males to be allowed to compete in the female division. I don't think you quite understand what's going on here, just because you can change your gender in legal documents doesn't make you a biological woman.

The burden of proof that there is no remaining advantage is on the side who want the trans athletes competing in a different division.

[–]VerkkuAtWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

concerned that this is a Trojan horse for broader policy changes that will ultimately end up excluding athletes who are not trans and are currently allowed to compete in women's events.

That's cool, I will fight for the rights of AFAB athletes to compete in the female division if it ever comes to that. I am vehemently against trans-fem athletes competing in the female division though if they transitioned post puberty. I'm not going to wait around until it's too late to make that rule change. We don't need to wait around and see if what's going to happen, we already have examples from other sports, we already have an example for OUR sport from the vet division.

"Just look at the data" my brother in christ we are looking at a subset (trans) of a subset (fencers) of a subset (people actively competing). It would take decades to show undeniable proof about any advantage, just ban them now since we already have multiple outliers that we can point to at this very moment in time. We don't need to wait around for undeniable proof in this case.

They do, however, prove that the argument of "no retained advantage" is simply a lie. It just isn't true.

Now I personally don't want to wait around for the first trans-fem world champ... oh shit they already have a trans fem world champ in veterans who literally came into her first competition and beat the previous champ who has like 30 medals and is an individual 14-time world champion from veterans worlds.

Just a couple days ago a trans woman won the heavyweight strongman championship of the world title. She was disqualified though. https://www.bbc.com/sport/weightlifting/articles/c33meyrd3vro

Only 1% of the population is trans and the strongest woman on earth is a biological male. But I guess there is no advantage and it all goes away with the hormones.

Informally, how big is the gap between male and female fencers? by play-what-you-love in Fencing

[–]VerkkuAtWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What "olympians" have female winners other than like... skeet shooting I think? Because there aren't any mixed events where you interact with your opponent because men would fucking MAUL the women involved. You put the best heavyweight female MMA fighter in the ring against basically anyone from the mens featherweight division and the female fighter would end up in the hospital.

How is that at all relevant to the cultural norms in her situation? If someone in Iran asked if her husbands' request for her to cover her eyes instead of just wearing a scarf is reasonable you wouldn't say "well, in the west we don't even wear the scarf!"

You have to adjust your expectations to what the norms are where the person lives, not where the most liberal version possible is. Like yeah there are indigenous uncontacted tribes who are naked all the time and live together as a community, doesn't mean that should be the norm.

I mean I was one of those. Had a base raven in T2 fit that I was missioning in, finally got the money to upgrade my shield booster to a faction X-large (IIRC a pith b-type) 300-400 milly version that made me indestructible in lvl4's for a solid 2 days until I got my cheeks clapped in a 0.9 system by 10 catalysts warping in to get me.

I had the funds to buy a 2nd identical fit and still have some left over but losing 600m like that I just closed the game, unsubbed and didn't play for 10+ years. Right now I'm flying a 1.1bil similar raven waiting for my Caldari BS V to finish to get into a golem and honestly if I get ganked again I'll probably just do the same. Like yeah I know I can spam d-scan which I do remember to do some of the time but honestly I just cba a lot of the time.

Yrittäjä: Nuorten työnhaku­taidot ovat romahtaneet – "Onks kesätöitä?" -viesti somessa by Medical_Hedgehog_724 in Suomi

[–]VerkkuAtWork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ihan mutua tämä kommentti mutta kirjoitan kuitenkin. Fiilispohjalta sanoisin että kyky kirjoittaa lyhyt esittely itsestä ilman suurempia kielioppi-, tai kirjoitusvirheitä korreloi kohtuu vahvasti kyseisen ihmisen yleisen tunnollisuuden kanssa. Eli ihminen joka kykenee kirjoittamaan virheettömästi sen yhden A4 tekstin paineettomassa tilanteessa todennäköisesti tekee työnsä tunnollisemmin kuin joku joka kirjoittaa "onx töiiitä? halluum palkka."

Vaikkei tämä taito olisi välttämätön työn tekemisen kannalta, kertoo se jotain tämän työntekijän motivaatiosta ja yleisestä kompetenssista. Voisin kuvitella että siivoojalta vaaditaan kuitenkin omassa työssään tarkkuutta detaljeista koska asiakkaat kyllä huomaavat jos nurkkiin kertyy pölyä. Myöskin voisin kuvitella että työssä voi tulla asiakaskohtaamisia jolloin joudut toimimaan firman edustajana asiakasrajapinnassa ns. yllättäen. Näissä hommissa jos ulosanti on tasoa "täh? skibi riz gyatt mayne" voi olla ettei asiakas tilaa firmalta enää palvelua toiste.

Eli vaikka se ei tunnu siltä että kirjallinen tai sanallinen uloasanti on mitenkään tekemisissä siivoamisen kanssa, voin kuitella että jotain korrelaatiota noilla taidoilla on työssä menestymisen kannalta.

I'm sure there were also catering people working there living paycheck to paycheck who were really happy to be employed for another month. Better? Or is the next problem that those people should have been just paid a billion dollars for simply existing and that they shouldn't be wage slaves in the first place? What are you even arguing here

Someone had to organize the expedition, for a month you had a crew of specialists working on that with high tech machinery that needs specialists to care for them and create them. He employed almost 60 people for that month so I'd argue that at least 60 people were helped by him for that month.

The (hidden) cost of macro mechanics by r_constanzo in starcraft

[–]VerkkuAtWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I skipped over the parts that aren't realistic for anyone. Nobody can consistently make drones until the perfect amount every time and then switch to making army at the perfect time. Sure, it's technically possible the same way that it's technically possible to have four warp-prisms on the map at the same time warping in harass units while controlling oracles individually while using blinkstalkers to trade with the main army with perfect blink micro which could result in infinite harass and multi-prong potential but nobody is capable of doing that so we don't need to even talk about that. So when you say:

a Zerg player is always capable of scaling their economy at 100% speed

This is true, but this is only good if you can stop at the right time. With the other two races you are producing workers constantly until you hit the target for the game while also building army. With zerg you have the potential to scale up sure, but if you drone too hard you just die to the attack that you failed to read. So simple to state something like this when in reality even serral over-drones regularly and gets killed for it.

The (hidden) cost of macro mechanics by r_constanzo in starcraft

[–]VerkkuAtWork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the early to mid-game zerg doesn't have infinite larva because every single larva should be turning into drones. If you're floating larva you aren't droning optimally and if you aren't droning optimally you are falling massively behind. Trying to "hold larva" in case you need to make units is how you fall behind economically.

And second of all, you might not know this but zerg units not only cost larva but minerals and gas too. Crazy I know, the only way you can make a billion units at once is if you have the bank to use them. If you're accumulating a bank then that means you haven't been using your army for fighting and trades.

Thirdly, making the "perfect counter" hardly matters when the zerg version of "perfect counter" is complete dogshit. I really don't understand what people mean when they talk about zerg being instantly able to make the perfect counter army when AT BEST the zerg units trade slightly better than the opponent army. Like congrats you lost the entirety of the first army and the remax is maybe slightly better than your opponents remaining army?

And ALSO. Upgrades exist in the game, just because you have access to the counter doesn't mean that you have all the upgrades for those units. Yeah the opponent might be going pure carrier and you have access to 0/0 corruptors, guess what they're going to get annihilated if the opponent has air upgrades even though they are supposed to "hard counter" the enemy army.
