Worse than that, their perception is quite easily manipulated. Hence why media control is so important to the fascists.

*The fascists are the Democrats and their goons, ANTIFA.

Nah. Money is simply the mechanism that reveals true character.

It was made by Hollywood for Hollywood.

And you'd be wrong. Triton subs have the only full-ocean-depth commercially rated submersible. It literally has no depth rating, it safe in any part of the ocean. And not just once. Repeatedly.

Check out the stupid mistakes that were made with OceanGate - https://www.engineering.com/story/potential-structural-reasons-for-the-titan-submersible-failure

"You’re remembered for the rules you break. And I’ve broken some rules to make this. The carbon fiber and titanium? There’s a rule you don’t do that. Well, I did.”

There were several people who quit working with OceanGate because their failure would paint all submersibles with a bad reputation. And thanks to morons like you and Stockton, they were right.

Congrats on chasing down a decade-old bug!

Definitely, I'm assuming you drink that hot and hot drinks don't generate condensation. All you need is a heat barrier and ceramic is great for that no matter what kind of finish it has.

It's not artifacting, it's a watermark.

It's environment dependent. I could use them in the winter when it's not very warm or humid.

But in the summer with the windows open a glass of ice water has a ton of condensation around it like the glass is leaking almost. Went through almost all types, plain plastic squares, then to cork, then to stone and finally the felt which actually work.

stone/non-glazed ceramic works ok because it's porous and absorbs the condensation. These look like glazed ceramic which won't work well. In high humidity environments there's so much water the coaster will start to stick to the glass or it'll spill off onto the surface you are trying to protect, it's just not ideal.

Best coasters I've found are rubber with a felt/fabric insert. They never move or stick to the glass and the felt has enough surface area to evaporate the water.

Proper keming would fix that.

Love the huge programming capabilities built into Excel itself but for everything else it's AutoHotKey FTW. I have a bunch of macros tied to the F keys along the top of the keyboard that can fill out any number of forms with a couple key presses.
