TIL that "mannequin" and "manikin" are not just two different spellings of the same word, but do, in fact, differentiate between an unposable statue that displays clothing and a model that attempts to be anatomically accurate and/or posable.

English is weird as fuck.

TIL, I wrote this off as cultural spelling.

Wait, for real?

TIL too.

Are your thermal sensors not in your eyes fellow human?

Makes me wonder if OP even knows how to use their eye ports

[–] stanka@lemmy.ml 16 points 11 months ago

I also love to stream input data from my eye-ports. Maybe OP is a robot!?

One eye is positive. One eye is negative. The third eye, the most mysterious, is GND.

Is the ground supposed to be whispering?

I too like to plug things in to my third eye to ground me

[–] Leviathan@lemmy.world 23 points 11 months ago

Probably whoever covered every part of the body except for the eyes for warmth. Makes the data gathering easy without affecting results.

F-tier SCP.

I'm a compliance engineer, and I honestly love when ISO standards are goofy like this. The last one I contributed to required me to build a custom testing robot. Hopefully the voting committee doesn't notice the scotch tape and cardboard. Holding it together.

It’s just so cool to be able to take something and think, “How can I test this in a way that many manufacturers can run it and the test results will still be comparable in 10 years?”

[–] Baggie@lemmy.zip 6 points 11 months ago

I mean the real answer is that's where the sleeping bag is open so you can plug the robot in

That's one large Pipridae.
