  • As far as I’m aware, what you cited only proves that there is no ether that acts on light in a way such that the round trip time in the direction of ether travel is different from the round trip time in the direction perpendicular to ether travel.

    It’s not merely that:

    somehow the movement of this medium caused the speed of light in one direction to be faster than another due to the movement of this medium, measuring the speed in two directions perpendicular to each other would reveal that difference.

    Instead, it’s that the speed of light must be different in the two directions in a way such that their round trip times don’t average out to the same average as in the other direction.

    The theories of ether at the time predicted such a round trip difference because of the wind like interactions that you say.

    I believe that this in no way proves anything about the one way speed of light. The Michaelson Morley inteferometer only measures difference in round trip time.

    (Insert comment about the irony of your last statement). See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-way_speed_of_light




  • There are a great variety of co-ops. If you define renting narrowly enough, then they are of course different. But the point is that for some (and the co-ops I’ve seen personally) you don’t have to make a down payment for a mortgage like you do with a condo or house. You instead pay a monthly fee that covers the co-op’s mortgage/repairs/taxes. Or if the place is fully owned by the co-op, then just the repairs/taxes.

    But you retain the flexibility of renting in that you can leave reasonably easily since you’re not personally responsible for the mortgage.

    I think there are also co-ops (possibly more commonly) where it’s essentially just a condo where the building is collectively owned by the tenants instead of a for profit company. In that case, it’s much less like renting.







  • There’s definitely software that uses parts of the windows API that games don’t touch. And doesn’t work properly on Wine. I keep a windows install around just for using an analysis software for some lab equipment that refuses to start in wine.

    Things like CAD software are also a struggle, though the latest wine seems to have resolved a number of graphics issues with getting PTC Creo to properly use the nvapi and nvidia graphics drivers through wine.

    While wine is amazing, plenty of things don’t work with it. Usually you don’t need them, but if you do, you do






  • Is the bad side of the seam where it stops or where it starts printing the outer wall? I assume it’s where it stops and then it cross the wall to form the infill?

    To add to the PA questions, are you sure that your PA setting actually are changing anything?

    What printer is this and what firmware?

    Does a spiral mode print work fine?

    What if you print the part significantly slower (to rule out rigidity/acceleration issues)
