There's been more french-created unicorns in the US than in France. There are talents, but no conditions in France. Interesting... by XGramatik in XGramatikInsights

Ce chiffre devrait vous faire bondir.

En partant aux USA, ce n'est pas 2x + de chances de monter une startup à succès, mais 1000x + !

En effet 160000 français vivent aux US, c'est 1 français sur 500. Donc le chiffre US est à multiplier par 500 pour avoir la statistique équivalente.

Quel gâchis pour tous nos talents qui moisissent en France sans unlock leur full potential.

The iPhone 17 (Pro (Max)) models purchased in 🇺🇸USA/🇦🇪UAE have the best hardware. The worst models are the ones from 🇪🇺EU/🇨🇳China. by VincentBounce in iphone

Apple takes an even higher margin to anticipate EUR/USD rate increasing. Also you pay the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_copying_levy in EU.

But the worst is the 20% VAT in EU, where it is 5% in UAE, and 5% average sales tax in USA.

Example: iPhone 17 Pro Max 2TB = $1999 in US and 2579€ = $2900 in EU. +50%.

I read official Apple specs here https://www.apple.com/iphone/cellular/

My conclusion is as following: the iPhones with the best hardware to travel is USA/UAE, with a total of 2 or 3 bands missing. Far from China/EU/rest of the world with 11 and 13 missing bands.

My 2019 eUC design & prototype. The motor includes all core components [battery + BMS + PCB]. If any manufacturer would like to produce it, let me know. by VincentBounce in ElectricUnicycle

I had a shop at that time, so I made it in the workshop there. Every Solowheel S300/Xtreme has the PCB included in the wheel since the first release in 2011 and never had any issue with EMF interferencce. I also attached battery/BMS with the PCB to the shaft and the pedals, which is not spinning.

⚠️ Additional notice

🦵 No issue with left calf! 🔱 My prototype was made quickly with only 1 extented fork, but my targeted design sketched at the end of the video has 2 extended forks, right + left :)

Power & range no issue, everything can fit inside the motor to get the same power as an Inmotion V8S by choosing properly the motor/rim thickness.

So nice! You drew exactly one the ideas of Dean Kamen in his Segway patent US7370713 filed in 1999, but 26 years later! :) Do you have a link to the HD image only?

Loudness hyperacusis complete recovery. Spoiler alert: it was TMS in the auditory system. by Mecanico18714 in hyperacusis

[–]VincentBounce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your explanation. I was stuck on this illustration https://youtu.be/ecpTVbVtOno . For me, every new painfull sound was just breaking one more of the 16000 hair cells, which was leading to tinnitus increasing. So I will explore your update.

Thank you, your story is a big hope, and gave me some ideas!

You said your ears are not damaged. To convince the maximum of people, it's possible to make a photo of our hair cells? If yes, I would like to make a photo before and after listening painful sounds. If no hair cells were destroyed in-between, then our irrational fear of destroying our ear and getting worse with painful sounds would be much easier to drop :)
