I like him either. For the lack of examples, he’s just the first example of an android with skin that came into my mind. Yet, despite he’s a robot, he’s probably too sympathic to trigger the uncanny valley phenomenon.

After thinking about that for a while, Zuck might have been the better example.

That’s why I wrote “features of a human-like face” (like Q3PO in Star Wars), not a look-alike copy with “skin” (like Data in Star Treck NG or the one in the article).

Form is a necessity derived from function.

To a certain degree, the ‘human’ form is indeed optimal for two legged motion.

Additionally, giving the robot features of a human-like face makes it easier for people to interact with them.

The driver to use my flatbed scanner on Linux actually is the one for Windows XP. Directly on Linux, no VM, (and no WINE).

If you’re talking kernel-level drivers – and I don’t know what “drivers” means here — you can’t use Windows drivers on Linux.

If, in some (rare) occassions, you can use Windows drivers on Linux, WINE is definitely not the proper method of installing them.
Unlike a VM, WINE doesn’t have access to any hardware, so the installer doesn’t ‘see’ that the required hardware is installed.

They probably also can eat a meal with 25 % of their body mass, but then live of that for several months.

I feel you. The recipients must be willing to use encrypted communication either.

If I understand their documentation correctly, you can set up PGP for communicating with non-Proton e-mail recipients.

One reason is probably that the power in PS is a 36 % larger number than in kW.

It’s as if I, too, have a problem with eating wires or plastic I found on the floor and she and I are working on that problem together.

That’s precisely not the royal we. The royal we would imply that she means only herself and not herself and her cat.

Yes, Stärke means strength (could also mean starch, but not in this case), Stärken here is (Dative case) plural.

Seems so: 2 are doublets and 5 are triplets (if I’ve counted correctly)

How are cars advertised in Portugal? In Germany, Pferdestärken (PS) is commonly used.

You’re right, yet there are two definitions of the horse power, the imperial 1 hp ≈ 745.7 W and the metric 1 hp = 735.49875 W. The latter is usually given in its local name, e.g. as PS, cv, … etc., while the imperial is usually hp independent of the language of the document.

As you said, in Europe, quantifying the power of a machine (e.g. a car) in horse powers is supplementary only and thus, does not suffice on its own, the data must always be given in kW.

Again what learned.

No, the palms should rest, but in a proper straight position, not bend down:

Ah, ok. I somehow got that wrong.

Isn’t one usually interested in the speed relative to the ground?
