The best musicians can often be seen creating the most dulcet tones on the most dirty, busted, and worn-in instruments.

only thing i can figure is maybe technically you could call an ellipsoidal prism a cylinder also? seems like a stretch.

- Comment on In movies a strong woman is manly. (big muscles, aggressive, punches people, etc.) Is that really the way it is? 1 year ago:
musculature is not solely masculine, but if that’s the association for you, it makes sense that you feel a woman with muscles “starts looking like a man”. a similar circular reasoning would be arrived at if you simply considered strength itself to be a masculine trait.

- Comment on In movies a strong woman is manly. (big muscles, aggressive, punches people, etc.) Is that really the way it is? 1 year ago:
a woman can be physically strong without “turning into a man”.
strength of character? how about “nomadland” or “meek’s cutoff”?

- Comment on Samsung’s new T9 Portable SSD is twice as fast as the T7 1 year ago:
i had a lot of problems with my t7 and went through an absolutely excruciating return process. the bad service now makes me think twice about buying samsung products in general, but i had zero issues and was very happy with my samsung memory products before the t7.
i would get great read/write performance, but i think it had some bad blocks or whatever (confirmed but not apparently correctable with samsung magician) that id run into; when that would happen the drive would get a red blinkenlight, my pc would freak out, refuse to dismount the drive, unplugging/replugging was of no use, and the only temporary remedy involved a full reboot.
- Comment on What would it take to change an Internal Combustion Engine Car to an EV? 1 year ago:
Not sure there is a truly common package. Each manufacturer seems to be doing their own thing (unless they’re a small fry directly buying parts from some other manufacturer already doing their own thing). So I guess a common package might be “whatever’s in a Tesla”, but that’s not a very satisfying answer.
- Comment on What would it take to change an Internal Combustion Engine Car to an EV? 1 year ago:
When I’ve mulled over this question, placement of the batteries is usually the sticking point. Electric cars are designed to put the heavy batteries in a relatively advantageous spot for handling.
