This reminds me of a saying I heard. In America a hundred years is old. In Europe a hundred miles is far.

Having previously used tools like Inventor (which isn’t great for floor plans, but is great for parametric modeling) yes, Sweet Home 3D has a terrible UX. That’s doubtless why you didn’t find out how to adjust walls, etc. parametrically. I wouldn’t classify it as terrible, but it isn’t great, for sure.


Given the quaint physics of circles, the expansion of a ring of silicate around the earth would be quite noticeable. C = 2×pi×r, which can be converted to r = C/(2×pi). Plugging in those two values gives us
40000/(2×pi) = 6366.1977 km
40008/(2×pi) = 6367.4710 km
So, taking this ring from 0° to 50° would cause it to rise 1.2 km into the air, assuming it kept its integrity.
A simpler way to write this is
(40008 - 40000)/(2×pi) or 4×pi.
A tiny difference, relatively speaking, but a quite notable difference given the context.


Moreover, the OP is a lemmy.ca account, and may very well be French Canadian. And guess what, the currency sign is trailing in French.


Wikipedia lists about 5 other uses, some of which would probably still be relevant today if we didn’t have cheaper ways to make perfume. Silly wise men, giving expensive, light, easily liquidated assets to people they believed were going to be fugitives. As well as some much heavier, but very easily liquidated assets. Poorest choices imaginable.


Myhrr was also used in incense, balms, etc. They were great gifts for anyone for the reasons you listed, especially during a time when people of that nationality had been ordered to travel possibly great distances and you believed the people you were giving the gifts to would be fugitives.


Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.


I doubt I’ll ever be bald, although I expect I’ll be pretty thin in my 70s and later, and I haven’t really cared one way or another about baldness. I got my first grey hair in my teens and it hasn’t stopped, and I don’t care too much about that, either (it was cool when I had the flashes of grey above my ears like Reed Richards in the old comics, which I thought looked so fake). My beard is shit, and I don’t care. I shave because it looks like shit, tho. It’s great if we can accept what we are.
I’m glad you’re happy with your skullet and epic beard.


Fun fact, copper, brass, and silver are anti-microbial, so a lot of old-time door handles were anti-microbial. Odd coincidence, isn’t it?


You just change the definition of your isolated system. It takes less energy to move heat from one place to another than it does to excite matter to release energy. For resistive or combustion heating, the isolated system is your house, plus the gas if using gas heat. For heat pumps, you include the rest of the world.
As an aside, heat pumps are generally considered good when they reach 300% efficiency, i.e., when every watt of energy expended adds 3 watts of heat to your home.


This is no longer correct. We have heat pumps that can be more than 100% efficient, even air-sourced heat pumps in -30° weather. There are still many places where this will still be more expensive than a gas furnace.


A single point of data rarely answers the question unless you’re looking for absolutes. “Will zipping 10 files individually be smaller than zipping them into a single file?” Sure, easy enough to do it once. Now, what kind of data are we talking about? How big, and how random, is the data in those files? Does it get better with more files, or is the a sweet spot where it’s better, but it’s worse if you use too few files, or too many? I don’t think you could test for those scenarios very quickly, and they all fall under the original question. OTOH, someone who has studied the subject could probably give you an answer easily enough in just a few minutes. Or he could have tried a web search and find the answer, which pretty much comes down to, “It depends which compression system you use.”


The Pebble Time 2 has a heart rate monitor. I can’t say if the rest of your statement is correct or not.
It’s been a couple years since I used it, but after you create a wall, you can edit it in a dialog. The User Guide shows the dialog in question under editing walls, as well as the steps to access it.
