Older positive-pressure machines were uncomfortable, but a lot has changed. AFAIK, positive pressure has used for polio patients since the first machines were introduced, but I can understand why people who have been using the same life-support machine for most of their lives would want to keep using it.

which vent did you use? there is a world of difference between them, in terms of user comfort.

Here’s a great video of a guy in Germany repairing his 110 year old bandsaw. In the previous video he rebuilds it and finds that one of the bearings has exploded, so now he takes a shot at pouring a replacement babbitt bearing. He might not be an expert at this, and he might not be doing it the “correct” way, but it’s…

Weird how half of the current comments are “WELL WHAT IF HYPOTHETICALLY she be lyin??? Makes you think that maybe corporations are the real victims sometimes...”

Algorithmic trend determination has always been tricky. Twitter spends a lot of time and energy making sure that trends are not dominated by the tweets of 13 year old Minecraft fans and artificial “trends” (to some extent).

Li-Ion cells are not user replaceable for good reasons—they can be vastly different internally. This isn’t a huge deal for most other battery types, but Li-Ion have huge safety concerns. In laptop batteries (for example) the integrated battery gas gauge IC will monitor individual cell voltages, temperature, capacity…

I’m sure you have some evidence that this was because of Denuvo and not a bug in the PC port, right?

“This is because it and many other games are using a hardcore new form of DRM.”

The article you linked mentions that this is technically not DRM:

“a form of security called Denuvo, which its creator’s stress is an “anti-tamper” measure, and not a form of Digital Rights Management, or DRM”

Ryckert is too high on the list, Patrick.

I wanted to become a licensed bounty hunter for a goof, but in my state you need to either be a former law enforcement officer or work for a licensed bounty hunter agency for a few years first.

If only I had my own backwoods savant to teach me the ways of manhunting...
