This is very interesting, I did not consider heating the oil. That way I may not need to use a thinning agent.

 

I was interested in making my own ink so I can have any colour I want.
I dissolved some oil paint in machine oil, in my first tries I used universal machine oil but it was too thick, so I tried sewing machine oil that was much thinner. That worked much better but it was still a bit too thick so I was having some trouble "making it run" along the ribbon, so I used lighter fluid as a thinner. It worked great.
I eyeballed everything so I can't give proportions of the ingredients, in a future more serious attempt I plan to take some measurements.

It's been a month and still hasn't dried on the ribbon and types well.

Down sides:
I still haven't found a good method for putting the ink on the ribbon, I put a pair of gloves and use my fingers so it gets a bit messy and it is slow.
The other down side was that didn't take into account that there was old ink on the ribbon that darkened my brown ink so much that looks mostly black.

I have it in one phone but not the other.

Knowing that it will be easy to ignore, thanks.

 

At the top of the What's New tab there's the first line stating the last time the feed was updated.

I've been seeing for quite some time now an extra line there saying "Not loaded: 1". My guess is that one of the subscribed channels doesn't exists anymore. If that is correct, is there a way to know what channel is other than trying one by one?

If it something else, please, what is it? I won't loose sleep but it is bugging me enough to post about it after not being capable of googling (or duckducking) the answer.

Because of this, I think that it's valid that I direct my criticisms towards the program

That is exactly the incel mentality. These people did me wrong so I will blame the entirety of what, in my eyes, they represent.

I've been reading the whole thread and it looks like you're blaming an entire program for the bad experience you had with a particular group of people.

Now I'm confused, what does DEI stand for? I thought it meant Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.

Before searching how to do this I was thinking that it needed a toggle button but after using it for half a minute this is much better.

It sticks to a magnet, that means metal right?

I science podcast I follow already warned last week that the probability would go up at first as they narrow down its trajectory.
They gave the example of a fan closing, as it gets narrow, the earth represents a bigger percentage of the remaining fan. If you keep closing the fan the Earth eventually will fall outside the fan and the percentage drop to zero.

Unless it turns out that it is dead center.

Yes. Each character could have a list of equivalent symbols from every writing system then choose one at random at every keystroke.

Until they realise they don't need to make it cheaper because people will buy it anyway because they love all the bells and whistles.
