Ohhh found an old paper I wrote 7 years back explaining rotations in N-dimensional space.

Anyone out there understand or is an expert on double-rotations (not to be confused with simple rotations) when talking about 4D space?
@freemo Oh it sure is disruptive to one’s life! Such a shame most people tend to, well, these comics explain better than I could. Plus, someone moping quietly in the corner I suspect doesn’t quite activate fight-or-flight from others like an overtly pissed-off guy does! ![]()
Interesting fact of the day. In ancient egyptian culture the saying "Eaten the heart" was a reference to grieving without justification, which was one of the mortal sins that would keep you out of their version of heaven.
It was one of the negative confessions recited by the dead during the weighing of the heart against the feather of Maat (sometimes called the feather of truth).
The history of europe is such an amazing thing to expiernce. As an american it was a surreal expiernce to walk around a city and see things standing that, at times, were thousands of years old.
venice italy was particularly remarkable in this respect. It is hard to do construction there due to the lack of roads so often when old brick structures break they are repaired with bolts rather than replaced. Virtually all the architecture there is quite old as a result. You can feel it.

Please look at this status for an important explanation on WHY we don't have more reasonable limits on Toot size, or an easier to change limit.

Casu Marzu is a type of intentionally rotten cheese eaten in certain regions of italy.
I'm not sure if I'd have the stomach to try it but I guarantee you if i ever do the maggots are going to be removed first...
Because the larvae in the cheese can launch themselves for distances up to 15 centimetres (6 in) when disturbed, diners hold their hands above the sandwich to prevent the maggots from leaping. Some who eat the cheese prefer not to ingest the maggots. Those who do not wish to eat them place the cheese in a sealed paper bag. The maggots, starved for oxygen, writhe and jump in the bag, creating a "pitter-patter" sound. When the sounds subside, the maggots are dead and the cheese can be eaten.
High quality chilli powder, some garlic, and a few other spices really make it pop. but I went a bit heavy on the chilli powder (hand made) and it really made it all come together.
@freemo I was only partly joking.
When we put on the water-kettle, we turn electricity into heat. Why not make your kettle a tiny crypto-miner instead?
Slightly larger, is what Nerdalize was doing (they went bankrupt: typical startup-scaling-errors made). Not crypto-mining, but still anything that needed large FGPU farms could be ran on their fleet of heaters in people's houses and showers when those people needed heat.
