Did this get posted yet? It is a 3 part series about the failure of the US Super Collider project. Blatantly in the style of Jon Bois (though the maker admits so and even has a tutorial video on how it is done). Quite detailed on the politics - both on the governmental and office drama sides.

i am mesmerized by the configuration of this machine.

the obvious way to scan a book would be to start at the beginning and scan each page one at a time, right? easy, logical, just need a camera and a robot arm that makes the same page-turning motion over and over? maybe some sort of smoothing thing that ensures the page lies flat?

gently caress no. start at the back of the book, vacuum up two facing pages, scan the insides of each one simultaneously with a linear array then flip them to the side and repeat. it's better for the book, it doubles your scanning rate, and there's only one moving part.

that's some sewing machine "what if we used two threads and put the eye of the needle in the tip" poo poo

whats stopping them from doing this forwards? I’m not seeing an advantage to doing it from the back

on iphone you can use vinegar and it will replace the youtube player with the default html5 one. a fortunate side effect is that it doesn’t play the ads.

I learned about a rice cooking method where you boil it in water for a couple minutes, and then pour it into a strainer and steam it for the remainder. It comes out perfectly chewy and not gummy or anything because the boiling process washes away most of the surface starch. It definitely requires a bit more attention than other methods but A+ would recommend

wash your rice first
