There are three schools of magic. One: State a tautology, then ring the
changes on its corollaries; that's philosophy. Two: Record many facts.
Try to find a pattern. Then make a wrong guess at the next fact; that's
science. Three: Be aware that you live in a malevolent Universe controlled
by Murphy's Law, sometimes offset by Brewster's Factor; that's engineering.

@Shlomo put all the other stuff to brown, sear the meat in it, add (hot) water and let it cook. Meal of champions

@Shlomo its so that you can use the other side after one side gets blunt without waiting to sharpen

@david_chisnall i did exactly this for a website subject to an EU country regulator. Regulator reverted and said a cookie banner was required - the only cookie on the site was related to that cookie banner - which was imposed by the regulator. EU logic ftw.

Here at Vibe Industries we have great plans for 2026!

Vibe nuclear engineering: rods in? rods out? Just trust the flow!

Vibe air traffic control: let's see which plane feels like landing first.

Vibe bridge construction: eyeball the angles, gravity vibes along!

Vibe bomb disposal: cut whichever wire resonates with your aura.

Vibe firefighting: spray wherever the hose wants to go.

Vibe elevator repair: kick until the machine hums in the right key!

So we are down to 3 options. I will pay out of pocket to keep the site running until the end of this year, but between now and then we need either 1) To have another $200 per month in total subscriptions. 2). To have someone who wants to takeover the site and all financial responsibilities - if so, it is theirs at no charge. Or - the saddest option - 3) We need to close the doors of FA for good after 12/31/25. (Continued)

This is the Casio TM-100 Transmitter Watch, a rare piece of technology released in 1987 that became a groundbreaking innovation, arguably ahead of its time.

This wristwatch featured a built-in FM radio transmitter, complete with its own antenna and microphone. With this "small" device, you could turn yourself into a portable radio station anywhere, allowing anyone with a radio receiver within a range of up to 100 meters to hear you.
