The Wikipedia article seems to say something similar happened, but in a different way.

What’s the point if they still have AMD, Intel, Nvidia, Qualcomm, etc. chips on them?

I’m a sucker for any connector that has a nice solid spring load mechanism that pops into place when properly connected. It should sound like a movie sound effect of a gun being reloaded.

I’ve also used some really nice quick release steering wheels, like on race cars or racing sims, where they have a spline connector with a tight fit and a good spring load.

Where do those links take you? The mods might be doing that to demonstrate what could be coming in the future if reddit continues down this path.

I’m seeing a lot of misconceptions in the replies. You have it mainly right from a very high level.

The reason why prepreg “expires” is simply that the resin system is mixed before being impregnated into the fibers, so it starts the curing reaction immediately. These resin systems are usually designed to cure properly at high temperatures, typically 250-400F depending on end-use, but they’ll still slowly react at lower temperatures. To further slow the reaction, prepreg is kept frozen. Prepreg also has two types of expirations: “shelf life” and “out life”. Shelf life is how long it can last frozen. Out life is how long it can last at room temp.

Theres a few issues that can happen when using expired prepreg. It can be harder to laminate since it will be too stiff and not as sticky. It won’t cure correctly causing failures in the resin.

Expired prepreg can be recertified by testing the material for those types of failures. Check if the prepreg can fold over a certain radius and stick to a certain angle without sliding off. Cure a sample and test it.

This article and other discussions I’ve seen about this content removal trend seems to put the blame mostly on a tax loophole. I don’t really understand it, but what I think is basically happening is the company does a calculation that the show/movie will make them basically no money but taking a loss on it by trashing it will earn them a larger discount on their taxes.

They called it AI in the first game too. It’s been called AI in games for decades.

PocketCasts was pretty much perfect for me for a long time and recently (past couple years maybe?) they did a big update which made it noticeably worse. I tried a few other apps and they had even bigger issues. I’m still using PocketCasts and they’ve fixed some of what they messed up but it isn’t perfect.

They have a good library of podcasts built in but also allow you to add custom rss feeds for any smaller shows they don’t have or if you have private feeds from patreon or elsewhere.

And we’re already posting screenshots of reddit posts that are screenshots of tiktoks. Awesome

All but the biggest, densest cities in USA and Canada have their centers covered in parking lots and parking structures. There’s an effort by urbanist groups to reduce the amount of land used for parking in cities. This resource shows how bad it can be:
