It used to be

I feel you. I spent 48 hours this week streaming shows, waiting for a possible call to some in. I’m sure that’s some people’s dream job, but it drives me nuts that I have to be on site for no reason. I like the feeling I get from actually working and the sense of accomplishment it gives you

I work nights with 2 other guys. One of them is cool and seems to be a bit introverted, but we’re both into sports so we’ll watch games the first few hours and chat intermittently. The other guy openly hates sports, but loves “shooting the shit”, which he understands to mean him going on a fringe political rant or into way too much detail over some random shit he saw on YouTube… Luckily work gave us headsets with ANC, so me and the cool guy just headset up once the games are over and live in silence on the slow nights

The thing is china is great at reverse engineering things, but not great at manufacturing things to the spec needed at this precision. There’s literally one company on earth that supplies optics manufactured at this level of precision (Zeiss), who have spent decades to get where they are. Even if China has the design technology, they would still be far behind in the manufacturing if they’re trying to make their own optics.

Israel /s

He was just cultivating mass

Trying to give off “loveable idiot” vibes

It’s just not something you can do in your garage these days (or for the past few decades), even if the designs were open sourced. I like your idea and wish there was less concentrated power in chip manufacturing, I just don’t think it’s very feasible.

I feel like there’s very few people who could design and build their own brain implant chip. Even in the far future

How can you tell?

How do you feel about peanut butter and jelly sandwiches?

Yeah I love the concept though, despite the dystopian energy built into it. It’s something like at cost + 10% for operating costs. Unfortunately I think they have limited options at the moment. Something tells me big Pharma doesn’t like this concept so it’s hard to make deals with them.

Good luck! Fingers crossed

Also if it uses light!

So how do they return the bottles to the distributors?

Returning them through the deposit makes sense, but I never would think that the recycling pickup people would sort them. Ours just take it to the dump

Interesting. How do the beer companies get their bottles back to reuse?

I love that this post just turned into people giving helpful solutions and not bullying. Lemmy be awesome

Given the context of a previous conversation, I would. This is a very elaborate long con OP

The spot size is the size of the point the laser focuses on. It seems with the material they’ve used that there is some kind of interference between the two lasers they use to make a pit smaller than you would expect. There’s not a whole lot of information in the article to understand the details. Also, I’m just a guy who works on lasers, getting C’s in my optics class currently so take it with a massive dose of salt
