It’s a cutting strip made of phenolic resin that could be replaced. It was a precursor to self healing mats. More consistent cuts and easier on the blade.

No, it was used for cutting paper not food, like with an exacto knife, or rotary cutter. The wood is the work space, you would only cut on the resin.

I actually do intend to be impolite. Stop copying and pasting bullshit AI reposes. That ziponlymobile.com isn’t even a real url. Typical ChatGPT slop.

And do what? Yell at people on twitter? Make a “powerful” statement during an acceptance speech? This country is so fucked and anyone that thinks we’re coming back is delusional. We would need to imprison the vast majority of republicans in office. Even with that, it’s corporate money that runs this country and they would just get replaced and voted in by our idiot population. We are not where we are because of one administration, this is decades in the making. If I had the money and 7 children or however many she has that weren’t white, you can bet I’d be taking them somewhere they could grow up without the fear of being picked up by the Gestapo for being brown.

A pizza cutter and a rotary cutter are different tools used for different applications, so yes, the term is used very commonly.

I’m 40, which means I’m only 8 in adult years and that tracks.

Highly recommend lemmy. Yes, it doesn’t have all the communities that Reddit has and engagement isn’t as high, but its general content is overall good and it doesn’t feel littered with bots and spam like Reddit. It’s also much easier to access than it was when it first came out and the available clients are light years better than the garbage Reddit app.

Is a train even feasible to roll over them titties? What’s the grade? What’s the terrain at the top like? This seems less about car dependency and more about reasonable transportation when rolling oven them titties.

If this thing is $499, I will buy it, as I’ve wanted to get into PC gaming for a while and I will probably spend more in games. If it is more than $499, I will buy a used PS5 and continue to think about building a cool gaming PC and getting into PC gaming.

These posts are so outdated. This should have been a PSA in 1995. Cooking is not considered feminine in the US. This generation is being raised by millennials that have made a massive split from the way their parents raised them and traditional roles. Kids are also exposed to men in the kitchen way more. Just think about the ridiculous amount of cooking shows on tv and being advertised. Also, I don’t know about anyone else, but cooking the turkey was one of the few times my dad actually did go into the kitchen and was considered a manly task in my mind. And the parents that do still raise their kids with those outdated family roles aren’t gonna be persuaded by some “woke” tweet. I think the message should be just to involve your kids in the preparation of things like this. Give them responsibilities. Start teaching them how to adult early in life.

Not sure if this is the same article, but I read ChatGPT gave him a pep talk before he did it and offered to write a suicide note for him. So good luck with that one OpenAI.

They used the same strategy for the steam deck. Valve acknowledged that it was sold at a loss or near loss and it was incredibly successful because it broke into the handheld market. Don’t know why they wouldn’t do the same for this console like system. I’m hoping they do.

Corn is literally a fruit and corn kernels are literally the seeds produced by that fruit. This is a scientific fact so I’m not gonna argue with you lol.

Wtf are you talking about!? This conversation started with me saying I hope they sell the console at 499 and I don’t know why they wouldn’t consider selling at a loss for hardware, which would be following a proven strategy used by so many other companies (including themselves!!) trying to break into a market.

Corn is technically a fruit, but considered a vegetable or grain in the culinary world. This post is nuts.

Who else is buying a PC designed for gaming for non gaming stuff? What other industry is this an optimal build and design for? The last steam machine didn’t sell outside of its intended audience. Why would this one?

Bitcoin mining needs ASICs, and real AI needs massive, high-VRAM GPUs. This is a gaming PC with mid-range parts.

I don’t know why they wouldn’t consider selling at a loss if it means bringing a massive user base over to their gaming ecosystem where they take a 30% cut of game sales. 700-800 is probably a good price point for what you get. I’m just not a big enough gamer to justify dropping that kind of money on a setup to try out PC gaming.
