@biglesp Missed you today -- hope everything is OK for you all

So I've never come across unicode chars as variable names, but why not!

Wondering if my antenna design can be inspired by this?

[Sam M @samerps]

very excited to share what I've been working on, I've created an addon which allows you to run FastHenry directly in Blender! you can use the power of Blender to create any curve object and then call FastHenry to simulate the resistance and inductance.

This demo video shows how you can calculate the resistance and inductance of a bond wire in a power module. You can experiement with different shapes and curvatures and see how the inductance changes. Furthermore you can control the radius with geomotry nodes!

Also, you can combine this with ElectroMag Nodes to then visualise the magnetic fields! This addon will be a free update to ElectroMag Nodes

So even if you can't provide decent software, you still get more cash. Can the @PostOffice still not sort out IT? https://t.co/xMNPwj7pkj

@daveake Never mind the fear of missing out, I've definitely got feelings of missing out!

High quality implementation of logout on @sainsburys website -- even though it says "logged out" visiting a previously bookmarked page logs you in without requiring a password. Should have read https://t.co/rYkRb6Ylg0

Some lovely coverage in The Yorkshire Post!

Is it wrong I preferred the semi final interval act to most of the main acts? https://t.co/oV9kHOU1gC

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

@recantha That's interesting because in a recent interview on Radio 4 the Tory party themselves claimed "improvements" relative to Truss's administration and not 14 years ago (since the metrics were actually worse now than 14 years ago!)

Are Fujitsu competent at anything? https://t.co/GZrXxI3Hdx Yet still they have government contracts.

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

Why is there a hand (animated) growing out the lap of the person in the middle? And a hand that appears in the bedding. The @OpenAI Sora video from text is impressive, but it feels like I'm gazing into the mind of someone who isn't fully understanding the world

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

@ComputerWeekly Ok, so was he aware that horizon, which involved financial transactions, should have had integrity and not apparently hacked together, with no sign of any decent testing. And he wasn't aware of @karlfl calling the press office? Does anything/anyone have any integrity at Fujitsu?

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

@proogs One foolishly said your "bill will only go up by inflation which is that small you'll hardly notice,<long pause> plus 3.1%". When I questioned the 3.1% extra they couldn't say why. Personally, I think @ofcom should have banned the doing it completely.

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

@teknoteacher 'cos clearly bett isn't tiring enough! :-;

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

@IAmKatharineC Slightly light hearted, but further essential reading if you've not found it yet https://t.co/7si8zIVGYw but good for covering the "you're not alone struggle moments" the PHD comics (ignore the follow up book)

[Andrew Back @9600]

Accurate.

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

@sally_sound Yep top right is long tailed tit -- or "flying teaspoon" due to the shape.

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

QueryDLL.dll needing time to "bed down"? Suddenly we're realising the level of how incompetent @fujitsu_uk are.

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

@lenovo_UKI This is customer config computer I ordered. I'm not sure what you mean by "we don't have control" you are Lenovo? And my review was rejected by Lenovo. Does Lenovo not have control over publishing it's reviews? If not who does?

[Andrew Robinson @fortyfourMu]

Turns out @lenovo_UKI / @Lenovo don't publish reviews if you're critical of them -- they consider it doesn't meet 'guidelines'. And no they still haven't sorted out my missing items and no one has taken ownership of it. Should have stuck with @Dell and @HP
