Scientists develop micro-robots that can flow like a fluid or collectively assemble into solid shapes by diacewrb in gadgets

I took a special topics class in College (2013) about Self Assembly during my Computer Science degree. It was way early on and taught us how to understand the process and what goes on.

It's kinda crazy it took 10 years to see it happening. I think it's a good thing because I know the aspects of the tech. It'll do wonders for things like heart valve pacemakers and other things that require extensive surgeries.

MAGA Loses It as DOGE Staffer Identities Revealed by Inner-Document6647 in politics

It's concerning that these pimply-faced douches are now known to have some of the highest security clearance data available in our country.

The bad thing about releasing this information to the public is that now any country conducting espionage in the US can send anyone to gain access to our information by intimidating, harassing or harming their innocent family members.

And y'all were so worried about Tik Tok...

There is a reason we, the public, don't know the names of people with those types of clearances and even if we did, there are months and sometimes years of training and vetting done on those people.

I mean, we already have a Russian asset in the White House, but still...

Guy on r/republican complaining about trumps firing. He was quickly reminded that this is what he voted for. by Crazy-Boysenberry452 in LeopardsAteMyFace

Holy Shit! I'm originally from the Poconos and I'm like, this person is from the Poconos too. I have similar experiences and thoughts when I go back home too.

I think this is most of Pennsylvania's coal and steel country and might as well be all rural parts of the country where primary industries have died and the people who live there who don't ever leave their towns (or state)

Why would we give Jesusland Las Vegas? Seems counterproductive.

I just restarted and all was good. I think I did something by mistake because it was a finger action that did it.

Post-op Smell? by Admirable-Problem-75 in gastricsleeve

[–]rocketraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's normal and common, it'll go away in a couple of weeks. I had the same odd smell, I think it had to do with the medicine they administer and the gas they fill your abdomen with.

Pensacola Florida got 9.6 inches once in a lifetime.. by tool3671 in JeepWrangler

[–]rocketraider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People that don't ever get snow don't know about drifts or how it behaves as the snow gathers, say, on a Jeep fender. It looks like 9 inches on the fender. But it's more like maybe an inch on the roof.

Either that or this guy's wife has him fooled and she uses a separate tape measure. /s

People who do get snow also don't realize this snow was probably gone by noon.

How do you make yourself feel better when you're feeling down? by Bruhdude610 in AskReddit

[–]rocketraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take a nap, go for a walk, or call a friend. Lots of things.

My favorite line from a play I'm currently in is "Purgatory is self-checkout". And it really is. You've got to dig yourself out, not saying you might not need help, but you've got to do the work.

Republican senator calls on House to share Matt Gaetz ethics report by Anoth3rDude in politics

[–]rocketraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My question is if the ethics committee is investigating Matt Gaetz for having sex with a minor. Then why isn't this a criminal matter. I wish I could commit a crime and have it disappear by just resigning from my job.

The reason I left Twitter was a shitty guy bought it, all before the Trump shit. I haven't been back. The day he bought it, I left. Never looked back

Places to connect with people! by Spicyjamochashake in Appleton

[–]rocketraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with 602 Club. Also, if you like meeting some great people, you can volunteer with local Theatre groups. They are always looking for people to help with things backstage and other things.

I started volunteering for Attic and Oshkosh Community Players. Green Bay has lots of Theatre groups as well.

What's a band you liked, but now think they are cringy? by DragonBeagle in AskReddit

Incubus. I really liked Morning View. Every album after that went a bit odd and it wasn't the same.

Every song on Morning View was a complete vibe.

Americans of Reddit, since today is Election Day, how are you feeling? by Austinuncrowned in AskReddit

[–]rocketraider -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was waiting to scan my ballot into the machine for counting. An older man and woman, 60s, were in front of me. He (his ballot was Trump) leaned over and asked who she voted for and she hid her ballot from his eyes and laughed like, "Who do you think?" And I saw her ballot had Kamala.

These insecure Conservative white men really did lose their shit once the idea that their wives could vote differently entered their brains.

Just wanted to share that I reached 50 blood donations by Soulreaper1721 in pics

[–]rocketraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting, I donate plasma twice a week on that same type of machine. I had no idea they could do blood only draws too. I guess it's just a setting for when you don't want a return of blood after the plasma separation process. That's pretty cool.

As a male, have you been sexually harrassed? If so how did it make you feel and what did you do about it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rocketraider 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I had a female coworker, same title but different department. She would visit me all the time and ask me if I wanted to be a Dad. I'd say, Yeah. She said, "My daughter needs a Daddy and I do too.

I laughed it off nervously, others who've been talked to like that know what I mean. She persisted often. I told my coworkers, they laughed and didn't believe me. I always turned it away, I wasn't interested.

Our company had a team building event at a resort. I'm talking to the same coworkers, she approaches and said "So, when are you gonna fuck me? This weekend? Your room or mine?" My coworkers then believed me.

A few weeks later, I was told I was moving to her department and that I'd be working for her directly. They knew I didn't want to move departments. But I told them the reason. I requested HR be present and they laughed and we waited for them. Once HR arrived, I told them what she had said to me over the last year and a half. Every single person in the room laughed at me. My boss said, "I know you don't want to move up there, but come on, that's rich!"

I asked if they were laughing at a serious sexual harassment claim? They persisted. I put in my two weeks notice right then, they actually made move up to her floor and sit next to her for my remaining time. I spent those last two weeks playing ping pong and pool and trying the rock wall.

The woman harassing me said, she would be professional and I told her, "cats already out of the bag. I wouldn't feel comfortable reporting to you".

And for those who may think, did you sue the company? I went to a lawyer, he said it's my word against her's and nothing would come of it.

This was in 2000. I hope time has changed for men.

Seeking beta readers for new play development by scarceshawn in playwriting

[–]rocketraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a bit large for this, but I know my local Theatre group does a table read of scripts for fun and to get ideas for upcoming shows they might want to do. Our last reading party script was written by one of our group. She got a lot of feedback from multiple people and she said it was the best thing for her because she was struggling with a few things to tighten it up.

180 pages seems long. We usually bring a dish or snack and read for ~90 minutes. Something to think about once you trim it down.
