“If it doesn’t affect me, then I don’t care”

Recycling? In this economy? Cheaper to cover the planet in e-waste, my friend.

Hello Richard

This and also battery wear is why I charge my phone exclusively with wireless charging with all the fast charging toggles turned off.

The dataset is a great find. I do suppose it’s enough for a simple start. I like the idea of comparing different features so for example show 5 forks of different prong lengths, show 5 forks with different ornaments, and so on. However, I suppose preferences for different fork qualities are not independent. Say, someone might prefer a fork with longer prongs if the handle is thicker, but shorter ones if the handle is also thinner. Depending on to which degree that is true, trying to determine preferences for individual features while ignoring the bigger picture might be futile.

The preference one was my idea, too. However, I’m afraid there won’t be enough forks to fit every single possible combination of metrics. Another problem might be copyright. It would be fantastic to have an engine able to generate and render a 3D model any fork based on adjustable parameters.

Sounds awesome but I don’t know on what metrics you could qualitatively categorize forks, except for some obvious ones like prong length, handle start thickness, handle uniformity, …

Edit: Darn you, I didn’t need yet another project in my long long list. Now I can’t stop thinking about it.

Yes, finally a fren-shaped fork. The handle could be flatter and smoother though, but it’s acceptable.

That’s a lot of insight to have about yourself. I usually cannot tell why I dislike a specific fork. Some just feel repulsive, others I can definitely tell what’s wrong.

None of them are usable. If I had to take one, number 3. All the others are a sin.

Edi: I must agree with others though, that the handle of 3 is very bad. Still, the shape of the head is more important to me.

At least 3

Are you going to ponder something… Spherical?

But what if I wanted to be adopted. I need friends.

Palm tree on an island with some houses.

Too many polygons.

Infinitely many monkeys on infinitely many typewriters with infinitely much time.

Same picture! Had to send it to my bf learning German.

Never change, Japan.

Worry not. The automatic doors will crush all their fingers and toes first.

I thought they were huge winged dinosaurs haha
