Piezoelectric motor Puns

As a student of broken Canon lenses, going to be the 1st to implicate a piezoelectric motor in extending the landing legs, the shiny bit with wires attached to it. They're very high torque & can be linear. The 4 blades or rotors increase torque through parallel action. They don't have to move fast, just provide a lot of torque. The trick is the rotors have to stay clean with all the dust being blown around.

There's a picture of what I'm talking about. I feel like this would work really well for extruding filament. I imagine it would be fairly lightweight, but would also confer a bit more accuracy than the Bowden Set up.

The mirror positioning appears to be extremely slow and have a lot of degrees of freedom and fairly large amplitude of movement for example (>1mm?). It has to operate at extremely low temperatures, and must have insane precision (they say 10 nm on some youtube videos, is that even possible?). I was wondering what kind of actionners can be used in these situations. Seems to me neither piezoelectric materials (precise enough but not enough range and needs continuous voltage) nor stepper motors (not very precise, but might be with smart mechanics behind) would simultaneously satisfy all conditions. How do they manage it?

And additionally, there is this mirror supposed to track vibrations at 16 Hz, and the overall movement to track the target. How are those done? Wouldn't all these moving parts create annoying vibrations? And isn't 16 Hz really slow for vibration cancelation?

#Le Corps des Cadavres
QUOD SUMUS HOC ERITIS

Following its successful deployment to Cyprus, Le Corps des Cadavres will undergo a major restructuring initiative designed to formalize the Battle Order of the all-Beneluxian shock unit for the modern battlespace. Capitalizing on the unbreakable morale of Les Psychopompes, the future Corps structure will focus on five 12000-man divisions (subdivided further into three 4000-man Infantry Brigades each) with training in the “Dragonslayer” specialization, with emphasis on counteracting widely-proliferated combat robotics and powered exoarmor at an infantry level. While the majority of the Corps will retain their original self defence force mission in light of the Dragonslayer archetype, a two-division subset of the Cadavers has been organized specifically for STOICS expeditionary deployments, with one emphasizing amphibious and air assault capabilities and the other focusing on Airborne specialization. In order to support the former division, an additional 13 Clac Harald LPDs will be manufactured for the Royal Commonwealth Naval Army to ensure the entire force can be deployed at once.

##Shroud

While the Cypriot deployment saw the Psychopomp detachment equipping various powered exoskeleton solutions, the weight of the Russian TRIBUNAL-VIVEC, its heavy dependence on friendly logistics for recharge, and the foreign supply chain of its components offer several vulnerabilities that are all considered limitations in the Cadaver Corps way of warfighting. STOICS has therefore commissioned development of the Shroud, an ultra-light, completely flexible, and soft exoarmor solution designed to support a various suite of expeditionary operations that rely on improved mobility and independent operation:

• Each Shroud features an exotic flexible metamaterial non-explosive reactive armor known as Cerecloth. Flexible layers of BNNT-CNT weave are bundled into fifty-micron-thick armor packs, separated by calibrated mechanically-bent graphene layers that become [piezoelectric nanogenerators](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanogenerator#Piezoele

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub

Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat

Do your worst!

How the hell am I suppose to know when it’s raining in Sweden?

Ants don’t even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.

But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.

Mathematical puns makes me number

They were cooked in Greece.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

Now that I listen to albums, I hardly ever leave the house.

Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"

Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"

Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

And now I’m cannelloni

Hello everybody. I've had some people PM me asking for help on how to activate their pineal gland using DMT so I've decided to post it publicly. If you are still having troubles, then feel free to PM me so I can diagnose the problem you are having. Don't be discouraged if you don't achieve it the first time since breathless Samadhi usually takes years to achieve anyways.

How to Enter Breathless Samadhi and Begin the Process of Extreme Neurogenesis

I have revised and improved the method significantly in order to enter one of the deepest states of meditation known as breathless Samadhi. In this state, the function of the breath ceases and the piezoelectric motor of the pineal gland generates the necessary electrons in order to survive. It is not water, food, or air that keeps the body alive but the electricity that the body produces from processing food, water, and air. It is electricity that keeps it alive.

Breathless Samadhi takes years and years of meditation to achieve but this method allows anyone to finally achieve it quickly.

(Use headphones) Also find a nice dark and quiet place.

Here is the method:

1. Go to brainaural.com and apply these settings:

Brainwave: 1.85hz or 2.50 (It may be easier for beginners if they start at a higher frequency)

A-Mod: 50%

Binaural: 100%

Stereo: 80%

F-Mod 30%

Carrier: 220hz or 183hz or try 100hz. The lower the hertz the most effective it should be.

Mix Level: 100%

Or

If you wish to completely access the unconscious systems of the mind, try these settings:

Frequency 0.70hz

A-Mod 50%

Binaural 100%

Stereo 80%

F-Mod 30%

Carrier Frequency 185hz, 285hz, or 369hz (Lower frequencies may be more effectively for beginners.)

Mix Level 100%

2. Play a meditation track but make sure that the binaural beat is MUCH MUCH louder than the track. The binaural beat should be rather loud and clear. I like to use musicolet app since I can adjust the volume in the EQ of the meditation track. I implore you to use this exact track rather than one of your choosing. Here is what I like to use since music is soothing and relaxing: youtu. be /34qMa0Zmmw4 Or youtu. b/izl8KslplrU (The sutra of the demon who finally realizes the error of his ways)

Download these as mp3s using: ytmp3. cc /en18/ (There are spaces in the links so fix them)

You absolutely need an EQ to adjust the volume on the meditation track or else the binaural beat will sound blended and will not be effective. This must be done! The binaural beat must be

And boy are my arms legs.

But that’s comparing apples to oranges

Heard they've been doing some shady business.

Put it on my bill

but then I remembered it was ground this morning.

Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale

Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments

BamBOO!

They’re on standbi

A play on words.
