I guess I should add,
A.) Feel free to bring up anything already posted in this calendar year.
B.) Try to only submit the really top shelf stuff, keep the clutter down. As a rule of thumb, needs to be (subjectively) as good as what got posted before it. We are looking for a post that stands above all else, after all.
Good luck.
Are we just going for like humorous things? Like similar to the one above? Or are equivalently cool projects or helpful support replys?
I donāt want to limit it, but humour will probably win out. Itās all about being THE BEST post.
Soā¦
Humour
Wit
Timing
Wicked Dry Observation.
What impresses YOU as the best post so far?
Nominate what you want. Just remember itās gotta survive a vote showdown at the yearās end.
Some search filters might help suss this out:
We should probably omit DT product announcements and housekeeping posts.
I nominate this one!
We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.
Then I stare at them for a moment before finally turning around and walking away intently while never making any movement with any part of my body from the waist upā¦ then probably have more pints, because, well, pints

I found this pretty fucking entertaining - it had me giggling out loud; educational and hilarious
Noā¦ donāt do this. Iāve explained this elsewhere, but basically you are going to burn shit out.
A button is a simple device. It shorts two contacts. Thatās all. Itās literally just a piece of metal that you physically press down on that shorts two conductors together. Typically speaking, the circuit designed to detect user interface button presses (basically all low voltage digital devices) has itās own ideas about the electrons it wants to push down one of those conductors, and detect coming ā¦

Any of you approached cosmetic surgeons for "serious" stuff?
Edit: I would say this is the post that started it all. Without him, we may not have had anyone to contact.

Heh thanks.
And the irony of it all is, Iām one of the few here who have exactly zero interest in the Titan I mean, cool device and all, just not for me.

The blue ringed octopus lives in rock pools, not in the open ocean. Sharks are adorable, pools kill more people than sharks . Also surfing in a pool is even more boring than scuba in a pool.
And anyway your not safe on land either:

This experimental implant case report may be of interest. It describes a set of magnetic implants affixed to ocular muscles and orbital walls, to ālock downā the gaze of a patient with nystagmus - for lack of a better ultra-short description.
The interesting bits are the construction of the magnets themselves, and their attachment to the muscles:
Implant Design
We designed a 2-part rare-earth magnetic implant consisting of a small cylindrical ocular part designed to be sutured to an extraoculā¦

Amal actually has a twin brother Juan. Their mother only keeps a picture of Juan in her wallet though because if youāve seen Juan youāve seen Amal.
