At the deepest part where it surrounds stem tightly there will be an instant tangent which then immediately becomes non tangent. A G0 and G1 condition and not G2

Incidental Tangent to the surface where the stem starts.

No all good, they look amazing. I think my Grandparents may have had an Olivetti… It looks so familiar.

Same here, I saw one picture of the IBM that looked like it could have bumps, but the pixelation also meant it could just be reflections due to the convex shape. Also if you have old typewriters, its a faux pas not to share pictures LOL

Totally unsure if this is accurate, but chatgpt is 100% confident LOL. Brand/Model Approximate Introduction Year Homing Nubs on F and J Keys IBM Selectric 1961 Yes Royal Quiet Deluxe 1939 Yes Hermes 3000 1958 Yes Olivetti Lettera 22 1950 Yes Underwood Standard 1929 Yes

Couldn’t find images showing these. Looks like on computers their is info about it starting in 83

Chatgpt says 1950s. But who knows if that is accurate

I assume once key caps were molded plastic

Hows your backpain? You must be going way back on equipment. Everything I have had from 85 on has had a dimple or raised dash.

Our typing class in high school was this teacher spouting nonsense letter combos and us following those dqyvafter day until we had covered home row , upper and lower, then moving onto coping sentences. Reptitiion works. Find your home row dimples on the key board then today is fjf fjf fjf fjf fjf fjf, tomorrow is another

My daughter was in a state searching all over before she left the house, when I asked what she was looking for, she said “my phone”. My other daughter piped up " you have it to your ear, you are talking on it"

Fair, I mean I have done that too, and would not recommend LOL

If you happen to choose OpenSUSE, the " install recommends " will detect nVidia and load some drivers to get it working, but you can also add a specific repo nVidia hosts for Leap and Tumbleweed and download the Drivers / Cuda etc. They work great, so ignore the previous commentor. Laptops with dual GPU need you to setup a switching app to save power, when you don’t need to power the nVidia. If your BIOS has a discrete graphics mode selection, you can choose hybrid, but if your OS has trouble you can set it to discrete only so nVidia is always used. I had to do this on one machine because the OS saw the two GPUs and was trying to treat them has two displays instead of one composite display choice

If you are on something like openSUSE, nVidia hosts a repo just for OpenSUSE Leap ams Tumbleweed, and that’s exactly where you get them from, and they work.

Two separate EFI boot Partitions if you dual boot. Its not worth letting Windows know about linux. Linux chainloads to Windows boot.

You can group Gnome Apps in their launching tool. (Same as you group and name apps on Android, just drag one onto another) Its a different idea right. Hit super key and start typing or select the app. Maybe Plasma is more what you want where everything is customizable.

3D CAD/Modeling on AMD graphics is fine. AMD is on the certification list for enterprise level CAD. I was running Proprietary CAD on Linux for a while.

Gravity Waves didn’t exist according to my highschool science teacher

I recently heard that they discovered hundreds of Pluto sizes “planets” beyond Pluto, so they had to decided do we add 100 more planets or just demote Pluto to planetoid and ignore the rest

Depends on your definition of successful

Sometimes the underlying cause is you don’t want to be bothered with the task. I am highly motivated to complete tasks, but sometimes I will let stuff slide because I can’t be bothered.
