  Wow, did you just really confess as an child porn distributor/consumer? Who else would need such an communication alternative?

  I see so many ad posts on lemmy now… They have to do something about it. This one is particular bad tho…

  Sorry I am short of time, but hopefully I can help:

  Instead of using negative modifiers, just load the full part as it is. Then rotate it (Usually ±90 degrees) around the x or y axis and use the z cut tool to cut the part in half. Only keep the part you want. Reverse the initial rotation and the object is now cut on one side.

  Redo the steps for all 4 sides.

  Although in this case, it was the EU who wanted to put a backdoor in every encrypted messenger… Thank god it looks like as if it won’t happen!

  That’s exactly why testing is needed. You can calculate a ton of things but you only know through testing, when and where things fail. Then you iterate and test again.

  The actual unit is lower case, the multiplier is uppercase.

  Wouldn’t agree with that… There are many different units and multipliers. the letter being uppercase or lowercase has nothing to do with it.

  Examples:

  letters for prefixes/multipliers being uppercase and lowercase: P, T, G, M, k, h, da, d, c, m, u, n (trillion, billion, million, thousand, hundred, ten, one tenth, one hundredth, one thousandth, one millionth, one billionth)

  Letters for units being uppercase and lowercase: s, m, g, N, W, J, A, K, V, h, Hz (seconds, meter, gram, Newton, Watt, Joule, Ampere, Kelvin, Volt, hour, Hertz) (just recognised, that most units, which are named after scientists, are written with capital letters…)

  km = thousand meters/kilometer K = Kelvin (unit for temperature) M = Mega (prefix for one million) kJ = thousand joules s = second ms = millisecond (one thousandth) S = siemens (electrical conductivity) mS = milli siemens mm = millimeter (one thousandth of a meter) Mm = megameter (one million meters or thousand kilometers)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What comes before a quarter final?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember it like this:

  Finals - 1 match - 2 participants

  Semifinals - 2 matches - 4 participants

  Quarterfinals - 4 matches - 8 participants

  Round of 16 - 8 matches - 16 participants

  Round of 32 - 16 matches - **32 participants **

  In every round, half of the participants are eliminated and the other half moves on.
