its more like wayland is Designed by committee which gives you a never ending cluster of everyone's best wishes, which is why after hearing about it since 2008 the most promising thing it can say about itself in the first sentence of their own website is
everyone gets on their phone at a slightly windy thunderstorm clogging up the networks (voice, data or pots) so I understand that having a OK button to click is more desirable, but does it really solve the problem when everyone and their dog is A) still calling B) trying to update a half dozen media sites and C) now facebook is going to auto spam you complete with graphics and ad's
seems like if you really want to help in this situation it would be better to have phones that can mesh together and ping pong data around until it can find a outlet that is not damaged or clogged, instead of "every phone for itself" system.
if you photomask a line or an arch or a zig zag it doesnt matter! its photomasked and etched, you could make it in the shape of a pumpkin and not alter the basic construction methods
As someone who designs flex PCB for a living I agree with your facts, though I dont see how it makes much difference if the bonds are in line or in a arch, which was the point of my op
as the AC said, its not silicon, its flex pcb bonded to the metalized and etched glass, there's no reason what so ever that it HAS to be in a line or a circle, other than it makes the most since on the edge of a rectangle to make it a line of contact points, even if it WAS silicon there's no reason it has to be square either as its the same principal
trust me, I make flex circuits in all sorts of weird ass shapes, heck I have one that stair-steps in the Z axis as it circles a perimeter. So again there is no reason the driver ic's have to be bonded to a perfect line
Just about LCD I have torn open (and there's been lots) has the chips on a bit of flex circuit, usually folded over behind the light defusers, sometimes on the outside of the metal shell. I bet its been at least 2 decades since I have seen one with chips ridgedly attached to the edges of the sceen!
I see no reason why that the driver chips could not be arranged in another shape and traces on kapton film ran over to the actual panel, cause thats what they already do. So there must be a reason why we dont see circle screens ala 1930-50's CRT or any other shape other than everything you film is is in rectangular format
its not about memorizing useless bullshit that you will never need again, its about learning the material and how to quickly reference it in the real world
the old notion that you will need to memorize to a perfect T something you will never use in your life is dead, just like the teachers in my day POUNDING the fact you wont have a calulator on you at all times.... meanwhile we have pocket super computers on our bodies 24/7
grabbing a car door does not make you grounded, it makes you a bigger target yes, but there's seveal inches of isolation tween the car and ground, as if that mattered at all, lightning travels several miles though the air to get stopped by a 4 inch rubber sidewall lol yea sure
the brain an nervous system is a complex and fragile low voltage electrical signaling system
lets zap it with lightning
best we can guess is that "Mary Ann Cooper, professor emerita at the University of Illinois at Chicago" who by the way retired in 2008 says that lighting fucks shit up
shareholders only care about how much they can milk for the next quarter, dont provide that they slice you up and sell your ass, they dont give a shit about anything else, even if it kills your company
really its debian, you install it cause your tired of all the CRAP that comes on its variants
debian should give me a giant ass menu of all the crap I want on install, or not install anything aside from the core system so I can do it myself, If I want 100,000 jack ass packages ill use ubuntu, least it has firefox without having to fuck with text files for apt-get
Originally it was said all most printers are based on open source, I stated no not high quality commercial ones, so point out a commercial grade printer VS a copycat open source one is TOTALLY FUCKING RELEVANT
just cause you want to jump in with your snotty ass attitude in the middle of a discussion does not mean you have all the information
how about you focus less on 3d printing and not taking a week to deliver a package 2 states away when the post office doe it in 3 days for half the price, cause then I might actually USE UPS at some point

I wouldnt even give it that much praise

GNOME and KDE are expected to be ported to it.
Its DOA

how does a 4th grade hearsay make it as informative on slshdot, my god are all the nerds just stupid code monkeys now?
no it originates from dipshits who think the most simplistic thing represented in text form is a massive revolution in human evolution
its not, its fairly common knowledge and the article does not include any new or useful information
maybe you didn't know that whacking an electrical system with lightning will fuck it up, but that's because you are stupid.
how fragile do I suggest
assumption made

good god damn job
not one single picture of the machine or the cup it produced, fucking awesome

cause KDE sucks resources and is less useable than windows95 on a 386 16
someone else in the world spending tens of billions of dollars to scan a rock, we should not be the only ones
now NASA freaks please get over your patriot peens, there are plenty of other capable people in the world, in the end its better for all of us

think you missed the point, when I said good quality ones I didnt mean a toy you buy off of amazon.com
its still a hot melt glue gun on a xy bed go look at podwer systems, composite resin systems and SLA
for instance

correction
most crappy hot glue gun commercial model is based off of open source, most good quality 3D printers are not

dont worry no one is going to be near you when you isolate yourself in a fuck you go away helmet
