For the most part, computers have made human existence much more agonizing. They've brought us closer together and reminded us how miserable we all are. But sometimes computers are also responsible for funny stuff like this, and then they're OK. Let's keep the computers running for a couple more years before we decide to turn them off entirely. This time, some genius took a bunch of celebrity headshots and ran them through a gender swapping app to see what they'd look like on the other side. The results are, a little discomforting to say the least. Why does man-Shakira look like Jason Sudeikis? Anyway, hope you enjoyed this weird content. For more star-studded nonsense, click here.
BT103S speed-variable peristaltic pump adopts high quality stepper motor drive, speed range 0.1~100rpm, speed accuracy<±0.5%, one channel flow range 0.00011~500mL/min. Through Lead Fluid APP software, the pump can be controlled remotely and running status can be monitored in real time. RS485 communication, MODBUS protocol is available,can be connected to upper computers such as computers, single-chip microcomputers, PLCs, frequency converters, and human-machine interfaces through a variety of signal modes to achieve systematic centralized control.

We’ve all gone through it. We’ve built an awesome robot with all sorts of features, but now the time has come to detach it from our computers and run some tests. You think you’re all set, ready to go, but then you realize, wait… what about power? If you’ve forgotten to add a battery pack into […]
When astronomer Henrietta Leavitt begins work at the Harvard Observatory in the early 1900s, she doesn’t begin by looking through a telescope. She joins a group of women “computers,” charting the stars as a vital part of the world’s first study of the sky done from photographs. As Henrietta, in her free time, attempts to
We know through our research that those Georgians were prolific letter writers so we thought we would take a look at communication before the advent of telephones, the internet, computers and the like, back to a time when the quill pen was all the rage and when all letters were either hand delivered or sent by mail.…

Communication.........I think that’s why I enjoy reading so much…and why I like to paint the figure reading. I think of it almost as a sacred meditation connecting to the long linkage of the essence of individual souls. There’s the capacity for raw honesty in writing and the possibility of true intimacy. We can be that other person or at the least know what that person is feeling and thinking. It's a door into another’s soul present and past, alive and dead. Not only are we allowed to say things in books and writing that we could never express privately or publicly but we are also available to hear secret things that one cannot say. There was a movie about CS Lewis...I forget the title. Sir Anthony Hopkins I think was CS Lewis. And he said something to the effect of "I read so I'm not alone." If I painted a solitary figure not absorbed in an event one could say she looked lonely but I dare say that all my figures though they are solitary do not look lonely.
