Anybody going to talk about how the grand public reopening of the bataclan theatre was "Sting" singing "Insh'allah"?

I understand it just means "god willing," but seriously what the fuck.  89 people killed, some of them tortured/eyes pulled out/genitals mutilated, and you reopen the venue by chanting the same thing the killers would have been mumbling, blatantly just for political correctness/multiculti pandering...

not to mention the fact that THE BAND THAT WAS THERE DURING THE ATTACK isn't even allowed back, and is blackballed from other venues, because of 'insensitive' comments about the people they saw committing mass murder

Did they reopen that youth camp/island in norway where ~80 kids got killed by having a pop star recite/repeat a stylized rendition of anders behring breivik's manifesto or any of the religious passages he cited? no? why not?

some people are so fucked up, I don't get it

...French prototyping and additive manufacturing company Erpro & Sprint collaborated with the French Cycling Federation (FFC) and aeroacoustic wind tunnel facility GIE S2A to realize the project.

...Each set of handlebars, and there were seven in total, were 3D printed out of a lightweight aluminum material using SLM Solutions’ SLM280 selective laser melting system. In addition to the lightweight material, the handlebars were also designed to incorporate an interior lattice structure...

I don't understand why people are acting like hillary hasn't killed/displaced hundreds of thousands of people, openly supported criminalizing free speech (even using false flag/racebaiting bullshit, saying that the benghazi attack happened because of a mean hurtful anti-muslim US-made youtube video, among so much more,)  supported, armed, and protected terror groups/actual genocide/rape/human traffickers...

Ok, trump is a chauvinist, rich, reality tv star...  I'm afraid he's just another actor, fooling people like obama did, but HOW THE FUCK can any of you retards act like he could ever, in any universe,  be worse than the clinton/bush/obama types? Look at his history, then look at theirs. 

Name the absolute worst thing trump has done, or was vicariously responsible for.    Clinton's done much worse on a much larger scale, and you idiots are acting like "the republican" is worse because "he's a racist, sexist bully"

My smoothest/most-stylish friend back in the day... also broke more parts than anyone else.  I never understood it.  drivetrain stuff especially.  415 chains, ss/dj cranks, nothing was immune.

he broke a few plates on one of these, and I've still got all the leftover. also his steel ALBES pedal guard...

Haha, yeah, get trashed. Muslims (and their families) love drunk people.

Don't forget to dance with all the children you can. Or at least pat them on the head. The families will love that too. Don't forget to kiss the bride on the cheek.

Do you have a dog? Bring it.

BYOB.  Muslims love bacon.

Make jokes about the groom's family being less-wealthy than the bride's, or vice-versa.  They'll love it.


*multi-culti-humblebrag*


Seriously though, either just bring them some flowers that you picked/smelled yourself, or give them money/gold. If the muslims are actually religious/strict, they'd probably prefer gold over cash. Especially if it's symbolic/meaningful to their wedding date - Amplified by the idea of passing it down to their kids.  Tiny, meaningful gold trinkets >>> cash , any day.  Cash gets spent or loses sentimental value immediately, gold is like a long-term goodluck wish...

Lugged titanium creation showcases 3D printed tech

June 01, 2016

Here we have what is undoubtedly one of the most advanced bicycle frames ever created – and yet you’ve probably never seen or even heard about it.

Produced as a joint collaboration between UK firm Mirada Pro, tubing specialist Reynolds and framebuilder Ted James Cycles, the frame is currently a one off that demonstrates a new direction for the people behind Mirada Pro.

Taken from design to manufacture in just eight weeks, the frame uses multiple 3D-printed titanium lugs that are welded to custom titanium tubing from Reynolds.

The frame has yet to be ridden and is currently awaiting EN testing

Look closer and you’ll see 3D printed titanium lugs make up the head tube, bottom bracket, dropouts and top tube/seat tube intersection. These lugs have been welded to custom drawn titanium tubes from Reynolds in a 53cm frame that emulates the geometry of a traditional alloy road bike. The result is a sub-1kg (999g) frame that Mirada Pro claims offers improved torsional stiffness over a comparable alloy item.

The design also allows for welds to be moved away from high stress areas, and for the surfaces destined for welding to be simplified. Less parts and reduced machining times mean that manufacturability should be improved while costly tooling can also be done away with.

The potential of 3D printing in bicycles is yet to be fully realised but below is a decent example of how the technology has made a big impact among other industries – this one's from the world of aerospace.

(L) CNC part is 50% heavier and wastes 68% more material than the 3D printed component (R)


The metal component to the left was traditionally CNC milled from a large titanium billet. On the right is the redesigned version of the same component, and one that’s optimised for 3D printing. Compared with the original design, the 3D-printed part offers the same strength and stiffness but is 50% lighter. Better yet, the economy of the process is on another level: the CNC process producing a remarkable 70% of waste material compared to just 2% from the 3D printed part.

...

In the case of this frame, Mirada Pro used the load figures a frame needs to achieve in order to pass EN safety tests, which engineers then input into their CAD program. The program then interpreted how much titanium powder needed to be where in a formation that would provide the correct strength but with minimal material. Just take a glance at the CAD drawing below and you’ll notice large vein-like structures that pass through the design. These structures have largely been depicted by the software used to design the frame, and you can see directly how they translate to the finished components..

...

Titanium actually works out to be the cheapest material that Mirada Pro works with, even though the machines are capable of producing identical parts from alloy or stainless steel, both would be considerably more time consuming in the printer, remember - time = money. In fact, printing with aluminium takes twice as long as it does with titanium...
