If you rotate the hinge to angle X above the horizon, light coming in from an altitude angle of 2X (=zenith angle of 90deg-2X) will get reflected to into horizontal rays inside the tube.

So you don’t need a mount with adjustable altitude angle - the hinge accomplishes that.

Yeah, the four color problem becomes obvious to the brain if you try to place five territories on a plane (or a sphere) that are all adjacent to each other.

I think one of the earliest attempts at the 4 color problem proved exactly that (that C5 graph cannot be planar). Search engines are failing me in finding the source on this though.

But any way, that result is not sufficient to proof the 4-color theorem. A graph doesn’t need to have a C5 subgraph to make it impossible to 4-color. Think of two C4 graphs. Choose one vertex from each- call them A and B. Connect A and B together. Now make a new vertex called C and connect C to every vertex except A and B. The result should be a C5-free graph that cannot be 4-colored.

There are a few typst packages for making presentation slides. Which one did you use?

No love for GNU IceCat?

Anything that’s updated with the OS can be rolled back. Now Windows is Windows so Crowdstrike handles things it’s own way. But I bet if Canonical or RedHat were to make their own versions of Crowdstrike, they would push updates through the o regular packages repo, allowing it to be rolled back.

I don’t understand your question, but are you talking about the sigmoid or arctan function?

Since this is a Rust comm, will you at least post an example using your tool with Rust?

They will upstream stuff, but sadly they are not going to mainline.

No. It uses Hallium (Android kernel, basically).

It’s already delivered - a Mastodon user got one.

But getting an OEM to make a phone under your brand is easy. The real question is how long will they keep the software maintained?

These people seem like passionate Linux enthusiasts, so one can hope.

According to the Librem people: this is Android kernel (& other low level stuff) with Debian userspace, not a true Debian phone. https://social.librem.one/@dos/112686932765355105

They have to get smaller to fit the problem statement- if all levers are the same size or have some nonzero minimum size then the full set of levers would be countable!

Now we play the game again 🤓. I start by removing the levers in the field/scale of view of your microscope’s default orientation.

But look at the picture: the levers are not all the same size- they get progressively smaller until (I assume from the ellipsis) they become infinitesimally small. If a cluster has this dense side facing you, then you won’t “see” a lever at all. You would only see a uniform sea of gray or whatever color the levers are. You now have to choose where to zoom in to see your first lever.

This reply applies to @Cube6392@beehaw.org’s comment too.

It might sound trivial but it is not! Imagine there is a lever at every point on the real number line; easy enough right? you might pick the lever at 0 as your “first” lever. Now imagine in another cluster I remove all the integer levers. You might say, pick the lever at 0.5. Now I remove all rational levers. You say, pick sqrt(2). Now I remove all algebraic numbers. On and on…

If we keep playing this game, can you keep coming up with which lever to pick indefinitely (as long as I haven’t removed all the levers)? If you think you can, that means you believe in the Axiom of Countable Choice.

Believing the axiom of countable choice is still not sufficient for this meme. Because now there are uncountably many clusters, meaning we can’t simply play the pick-a-lever game step-by-step; you have to pick levers continuously at every instant in time.

It’s an old copypasta from reddit haha. I modified it to add the Fediverse stuff and my complaints with LaTex and improper rotation.

I didn’t actually downvoted your comment but apprently someone did and now I look like an asshole 😢.

I just downvoted your comment.

FAQ

What does this mean?

The amount of points on your comment will be decreased by one. The deduction will be federated across thousands of Lemmy instances, bringing you shame from across the Fediverse.

Why did you do this?

There are several reasons I may deem a comment to be unworthy of positive or neutral points. These include, but are not limited to:

• Rudeness towards other users,
• Spreading incorrect information,
• Sarcasm not correctly flagged with a /s.

As this is your first time receiving my downvote, I will provide reasons (listed below) to help you avoid making these mistakes again. Note that this will not be the case with future downvotes.

• Writing variables next to each other to form words. “Y o u” is not an English word. If you want the English word “You” in LaTeX math mode, write \text{You}.
• Your “rotation matrix” has determinant of -1, meaning it is not a rotation matrix. Propaganda promoting improper rotations will not be tolerated on mander.xyz.

Am I banned from the Lemmy?

No - not yet. But you should refrain from making comments like this in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downvote, which may put your commenting and posting privileges in jeopardy.

I don’t believe my comment deserved a downvote. Can you un-downvote it?

Sure, mistakes happen. But only in exceedingly rare circumstances will I undo a downvote. If you would like to issue an appeal, shoot me a private message explaining what I got wrong. I tend to respond to PMs within several minutes. Do note, however, that over 99.9% of downvote appeals are rejected, and yours is likely no exception.

How can I prevent this from happening in the future?

Accept the downvote and move on. But learn from this mistake: your behavior will not be tolerated on mander.xyz or the Fediverse as a whole. I will continue to issue downvotes until you improve your conduct. Remember: Posting is privilege, not a right.

The grandparent comment is correct. There is no such thing as engine-specific “maximum speed”. If you add more fuel, you can always go faster (until the speed of light).
