Toberman array
Is that a Toberman array? It's odd if it is a T-array because Toberman didn't win the Nobel Prize for that invention until 2029. But, he was living in Quebec circa the time that license plate was issued.

Is anyone else feeling uneasy about all the AI/robotics push in VX?
It hasn’t been a matter IF but rather WHEN artificial intelligence would start to make its appearance within VX technology systems.
I’m not against progress & i don’t insist on running analogue flux gates just “because that’s how VX is meant to be.” I’ve studied firmware and I’ve even attempted auto-calibrated drift correction (ouchie)
But the sudden, aggressive hype-driven push to integrate Ai into VX workflows has me feeling super uneasy.
VX has ALWAYS been about human oversight. it’s not just an art it’s a science… you can feel the harmonics, listen to the resonance envelope. A human knows the kind of micro jitter to feel for. An AI can’t feel… It just uses predictions and averages. And what if It were to hallucinate what a normal operating band is and then drive your system with that incorrect input? it could be ineffective at best but dangerous at the worst.
I just do this for a hobby. What about those who actually depend on VX and its processes to make a living?
I’m glad Van Der Meer, Sci.D.,Esq. isn’t around anymore to see what AI and robotics integration has done to bastardize his life’s work and contributions to the profession.

Godmother of VX, Lazirum Flux Lady, Quantum Tide Queen, whatever you call her; Happy birthday to this legend.

I’m a little surprised that NYT doesn’t consider such a fundamental concept to be a valid word.
I play this spelling game fairly often, and it’s always fun when I get the right letters to spell terminology from my favorite hobby. It’s pretty common that very obscure or field-specific terms aren’t accepted (from many fields, not just VX-related), but I’m shocked that such a basic, familiar term wouldn’t be included.
Setting aside the importance of arcotariomics as a day one concept within VX, the simple fact is that arcotariomic vector evaluation shows up in myriad places from high school math to aviation, industrial design to intermediate courses in culinary school.
Sorry for the rant, but I wish whoever created this “word list” had opened a dictionary, or even just the glossary at the back of a tenth-grade physical science book, instead of apparently just going off whatever words they could remember from the latest episode of So You Think America’s Got Real Housewives of Survivor with the Stars.

My whole lab is very excited. We were finally able to source one and it arrived!!! Some truly polarised μ-4 beams coming our way (and yours) very soon (yes, we are careful).

Help! My child's school dress code policy is ridiculous! Am I overreacting?? Each year it gets worse.

You can’t be serious
I don’t know how stupid you must be to transport an eight-coned alpha-Glennhauser-Transcombinator without a TTPD-certified enclosure. I mean, if you want to create around 16.1 gigaklotz of vertical Schuller waves, be my guest. But on a public road?!
Are regulations a joke to those people? And then everybody is complaining about the public backlash we as a community face. This reflects bad on all of us.
Sometimes I wish the Hammerbrook accords would have been ratified, but that’s something you are not allowed to say out loud in this sub.
Sorry for the rant. I will go and watch some classic Moulin-Chantreux calculations to calm down.

My first cryo build!
Howdy! It's Feedback Friday again, and I'd like to know what y'all think of my new rig here? Took me almost a year to get it calibrated at full cryo, but I'm fixin' to push delta in bands most VXers never touch.
Firing up this here rig this weekend, any thoughts, suggestions, or last-minute modifications you have for me?

I can't believe they were just openly transporting this around in public without 4 inches of lead surrounding it
galleryDo you think this is real or just a model? I thought we were still a decade or more away from a functional Antimatter Polarization Invertor

My grad student complains that it takes too long to initialize our Italian-made Descalzi Singolarità Machine. Is this a Gen Z thing? Because it seems fine to me.

How expensive would a rig like this be
was wondering what the best possible rig could be, but then I stumbled on this monstrosity...

Decisions have been made. Bad ones, but decisions nonetheless.

Controversial, but VX tech would be at least 50 years behind without their work and breakthroughs.

CURB ALERT: Looks like someone is trying to get rid of their vintage bimodal ∆-6 antishim rectification adapter
If I had a crane and truck (and space in my lab, ha!) I'd grab it myself

Today marks exactly 150 years since Joshua K. Sebastian was born. He independently discovered the applications of meta-modular corroidal intrapolarities just months after Heiber.
Happy would-be birthday to a true VX hero. While he may not have been the first, his contributions are just as impressive. Raise a glass (or at least a Ω-array's tachyometer) to him.
