Youtube daily report Mar 31 2017

Today, March 31st, is Trans Day of Visibility.

A day of empowerment and recognition towards trans people all around the world.

So, in honor of Trans Day of Visibility, here are 6 trans people of color you should know

about!

Bamby has dedicated her life towards being a light for the trans community, especially

the Latinx community.

She is the President and CEO of the Trans Latino Colalition that started in 2009 as

an organization dedicated to advocating for Trans Latin@s who are immigrants.

Now they have broadened that to include all Trans Latin@s.

One thing she said in an interview was "Nobody can dictate what we can do with our bodies,

but ourselves."

Monica has been a strong advocate for trans human rights protections since 1998, working

hard to educate and encourage those inside and outside the African American Community

to be accepting of trans people.

As a lecturer, award winning blogger, and advocate she is constantly giving a voice

to the, often erased, history of black trans people of color.

Micky is a black transfemme who constantly shows us just how beautiful trans resistance

can be.

With a history of being a strong advocate for those living with HIV or AIDS, she continues

to push for change and awareness.

She is the Cofounder of "Southern Fried Queer Pride" festival, and has led many

resistances.

She's also the one who vogued in front of the North Carolina governers mansion during

a protest of legislation banning trans people from using the restroom that doesn't match

their birth certificate.

Talk about beautiful trans resistance!!

As a queer, disabled, non-binary, femme person Leah fights for the rights of marginalized

groups, especially at the intersection of identities.

She is a wonderful survivor who writes from the intersection of her own identities, with

some of her works listed below in the description.

From 2006 to 2016 she cofounded and codirected a queer and trans people of color art tour

called Mangos with Chili.

This is the longest running one of its kind in North America.

The Stonewall Riots are said to be the foundation for the prosperity of the LGBTQ+ community.

Well, on June 28, 1969, Marsha, who was celebrating her birthday at the time, threw the first shot glass at Stonewall that started the Stonewall

Riots, and her fight for liberation didn't stop there.

Marsha, and her friend Sylvia continued to fight for the rights of queer people, including

creating an organization called STAR (Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries).

According to Sylvia "STAR was for the street gay people, the street homeless people and

anybody that needed help at that time.

Marsha and I had always sneaked people into our hotel rooms.

Marsha and I decided to get a building.

We were trying to get away from the Mafia's control at the bars."

In 1992, Marsha's body was found floating in a river.

Sylvia Rivera ended up carrying on the legacy she started with her friend Marsha, and fought

for our rights even as she laid on her death bed dying from cancer.

It's because of these two, Marsha and Sylvia, that we are able to continue this fight.

The list of amazing queer and trans POC goes on.

So the next time someone tells you they only know one trans person of color,

Show them this list!

The BCN3D Sigma R17 Review? - Duration: 15:44.

Dual extrusion has arrived, in a big way, and the fact that you need two filament paths

is being solved creatively in a bunch of different ways: Either you've just got two fully featured

hotends moving around at the same time, which does pose the issue of the inactive one oozing

its filament onto your print.

Then there's the option of lifting one hotend, but unless you do that perfectly, it's only

going to cause more issues than it solves.

Other setups use just one hotend and feed two or more filaments into it, one after another,

but the BCN3D Sigma does things its own way - it just adds a second carriage and moves

the idle hotend out of the way.

Crutch or clutch?

Let's find out.

So this is BCN3D's current version of the Sigma, commonly referred to as the R17.

I've not used the previous version, so I can't really tell you what's changed,

but I can tell you about how well this machine performs in absolute terms.

Now, just to get it out of the way, yes, the most obvious machine to compare this to is

the Ultimaker 3.

And that has been my reference for all the testing I've done on the Sigma, but you

have to realize that they are very different machines at their core and each one has its

focus in a different area.

Let's leave all the direct comparisons to another video and just focus on the Sigma

for now.

So the first thing that's going to stand out is the machine's looks - it's aggressive,

it's mean, its frame is massive aluminum and with the linear motion components glowing

in the purple LED lighting, there's a distinct "modern" aura around the Sigma.

It's a very hefty machine, except for this wobbly plastic cover, and its large footprint

comes with an equally large print volume of roughly 300x210x210mm or 12x8x8 inches, basically

the size of an A4 sheet of paper as a build surface.

There's a lot of seemingly empty space to the left and right of the glass build plate,

because that's where the Sigma has its parking positions and waste buckets for the hotends.

You get a fairly large touchscreen up front, flanked by an SD card slot, and a USB port

on the back, which you can use to connect the Sigma to a computer for tethered printing.

And yes, there's no networking built in, neither through wired Ethernet nor through

WiFi, which is a shame, considering the Sigma sells for almost 2655€ including tax or

27 hundred US dollars plus tax.

But the thing is, the Sigma still runs the Marlin firmware on an 8-bit processor, which

has plenty of horsepower for regular printing, but doesn't exactly just let you plug in

a WiFi dongle.

Though adding OctoPrint with a separate Rapsberry Pi is trivial if you want networked printing.

But the star, or stars of the show here are the dual independent extruders, dubbed IDEX.

This really is the core of why the Sigma exists.

The hotends in here are similar in concept to E3D's, but not quite identical in all

their dimensions.

So this is a dual extruder setup, with two hotends, two bowden extruders, but also two

X-axis-carriages.

That means, that whenever it's using one of the two hotends, it can park the other

one off to the side.

This reduces the moving weight on the X-axis, but most importantly, moves that second, idle

hotend over a waste bucket with a wiper, where it can ooze as much filament as it want, and

just before switching hotends, it primes the idle one into the bucket and wipes it clean

with this flexible lip.

This works great, and dual extrusion prints come out perfectly clean, without any extra

oozy bits of the wrong filament stuck in the print.

And there's no priming tower that could get knocked over or otherwise ruin your print.

Having two independent X-carriages means aligning the two hotends is a bit trickier than if

they were just next to each other, but BCN3D are including a powerful calibration routine

on the Sigma.

It feels a bit like the calibration you'd do on an a 2D inkjet machine to align the

printhead, and at its core, it's doing pretty much the same thing.

The first time you start up the Sigma, it starts by adjusting the printbed, which uses

an assisted manual leveling or, more precisely, tramming approach, with a microswitch on each

carriage and the two adjustment knobs on the front.

The rear mounting point of the bed is fixed, which gives the machine an absolute reference

for height and it means you'll never exceed the adjustment range on each of the thumbscrews,

which is something that some other machines often struggle to work around.

The microswitches measure the glass bed surface and the only thing left for you to do is to

turn the left and right adjustment knob by the amount the machine tells you to.

After that, the absolute nozzle height is calibrated, as usual, with a piece of paper

with very specific instruction on how to hold it, and just to reconfirm everything, the

machine then prints a test pattern and lets you pick which of the test strips looks best

to you.

And I think this last test is something that more machines should do, as it gives you that

visual confirmation that your adjustment is correct.

It does the same for the second hotend, and then a few more tests to align both hotends

in X and Y direction.

And the results of this process are really, really good.

Though the process itself could use some tuning in my opinion, if you do the full run, it

takes quite a while to complete, and the interface isn't always totally logical if you're

not super concentrated.

For example, not just in the calibration menus, but everywhere else, too, pressing "up"

on the Z-axis screens moves the hotend closer to the bed, which would be the negative, down

direction, in the printer's own coordinates and in any host software, but in this case

it refers the bed itself moving up and down.

The menu structure in general could use a bit more work, too, just to get it closer

in line with what we're used to from smartphones these days.

And to make the entire thing more stable, because right now there are still quite a

few bugs in the interface.

But in general, just having that large touchscreen instead of a clickwheel and a tiny display

makes this printer not just easier, but also a lot faster to use.

So the rest of the hardware is mostly as expected - nice linear rails, 2GT belts, but for the

Z-axis, they're sticking to 12mm smooth rods and a trapezoid spindle.

The spindle is fine, but the unsupported rods and the enormously long printbed do tend to

visibly shake about as the rest of the printer moves.

I'm not sure if this explains some of the inconsistencies I'm seeing in the prints,

but it's definitely not the greatest design choice using unsupported rods here.

Print quality overall is ok, it's not super-duper-awesome, but it's very usable and most of the things

I'm noticing can be worked around in software.

For the most part, that would be some slight gaps in top layers and ringing.

Quite a lot of ringing, actually.

It can be dealt with by lowering the acceleration settings, and the underextrusion is just a

slicer setting or firmware update away.

Manually bumping the extrusion multiplier by about 10% fixed the gaps I was seeing with,

basically, all materials.

Now, for the Sigma, slicer profiles are something that isn't baked in anyways.

BCN3D let you generate them through their Progen website for each material and nozzle

size and quality setting.

And this gives you print profiles both for Cura 15.04 or for Simplify 3D.

Now, there is an 8-month-old build of a Cura BCN3D edition available, and I've been using

that for the most part, but I didn't find any differences to Ultimaker's official

Cura build, other than all references to Ultimaker being replaced by references to BCN3D.

And not having any changes isn't a good thing.

If you look at even what for example Lulzbot are providing with material and quality selection

in their custom version of Cura, or Prusa with the Slic3r build, BCN3D just having you

manually load a new ini file for each new print setting or material choice feels utterly

inappropriate.

And on top of that, Cura 15.04 is complete garbage for dual extrusion.

Yes, it does support multiple extruders, but it's lacking so many essential features.

You don't see which parts of your models are going to use which extruder unless you

memorize which color is which, so I took a shot in the dark and ended up with a false-color

R2D2.

Even for single extrusion where you just use one material, there's no easy way to have

your model printed with the second extruder instead, so if you have a different material

or color loaded in the second slot, you can't really print with it unless you're also

using the first one.

And support material generation, particularly if you're going to print with water-soluble

PVA supports isn't great, either.

It uses a lot of the expensive PVA, there's no option to use cheaper PLA for the inner

parts of the support material that don't need to be soluble, like with this battery

holder that I could have easily printed with PVA supports, but it would have used a ton

of PVA, so I decided to split it into two parts instead.

I also ran into a configuration issue where the Cura profile was configured with quite

a large gap between the support material and the actual build material, which is great

if you're using PLA for both the build and the support and don't want it to stick too

well, but in the case of PVA, the part I tried to print ended up detaching from the support

material.

Because BCN3D haven't made Cura 2 work with the Sigma yes, and, in my opinion, Cura 2

overall has turned into the best slicer option out there right now and is pretty awesome

for dual extrusion, because that option is not there yet, your only choices if you want

to make use of the dual extrusion are to either configure the Sigma in Slic3r or Cura 2 yourself,

which is non-trivial, or you can buy into Simplify 3D.

I've asked BCN3D and their answer was basically yeah, just use Simplify 3D, if you're seriously

planning on using Cura 15.04, you are going to be crippling your shiny new 3D printer

from the start.

I try to review commercial hardware as it is shipped, because there are infinite aftermarket

options in how you can tweak the experience you have.

As it stands, the Sigma only ships with Cura 15.04 and not with Simplify 3D.

And I'm not a huge fan of Simplify 3D aynways, both for it being overly complicated and for

the fact that it's closed-source, riddled with DRM, aka digital restrictions management,

just maybe a bit overhyped, and of course, also a $149 purchase on top of your machine

cost.

Sure, in relation to what you're paying for the Sigma, it's not a huge deal, but

just image if all those people buying Simplify 3D would have funded an open-source slicer

instead.

That would be an amazing piece of software!

Instead, we have Simplify 3D.

I tried the custom support material generation that Simplify 3D is often praised for and

the supports just ended up fusing to the part instead of coming loose easily.

And I'm not quite sure why BCN3D are promoting Simplify 3D so much, because it does clash

with their own open-source philosophy.

BCN3D have done an awesome job on the Open-Source side of the Sigma.

Not only are you getting all the CAD files, but also the bill of materials including suppliers,

you're getting manufacturing drawings, the full package.

So if you ever want to modify or fix anything on the Sigma or even build a printer based

on it, you've got everything you could ever want for that.

And I don't think anyone else, other than of course Lulzbot, are doing Open Source this

thoroughly.

And it does feel like BCN3D have put a lot of attention to detail into this machine.

Starting with having Trinamic drivers right next the motors to reduce EMI and stray inductance,

then the very usable spool mounts inside the printer frame, which allow you to take out

each spool without having to touch the other one - yay - and lastly the magnetic quick-release

glass bed, which relies on the included can of 3DLac to get adhesion, and that works great,

but I'm sure you could also just print PLA onto the bare glass instead.

However, things aren't perfect, as those same spool mounts mean that the water-soluble

PVA support material will be constantly exposed to ambient moisture, which could render it

unprintable quite fast.

The ESUN or Matterhackers PVA is a standard type, so it dissolves very easily, even in

cold water without agitation, but it also sucks a lot more moisture out of the air than

some of the custom types.

Also, the heated bed PCB has a huge gap to the glass and takes forever to heat up even

for PLA, and PETG and ABS are just a chore to print, the LCD menus feel undercooked and

the firmware even freezes with non-Sigma gcode files on the SD card.

And the noise level of the entire machine supposedly has been improved compared to the

previous generation, but it's still not exactly a quiet machine.

BCN3D have already addressed some of the software-fixable issues, like what we saw in the live unboxing,

where the idle extruder head would constantly lose its positioning, that turned out to be

a bad sample gcode file, if you freshly slice new designs, the motion system works perfectly.

And I know the rest of the hiccups and especially the slicer situation will also be solved down

the road, but it would have been nice to have all this stuff tested for and taken care of

before releasing and shipping the machine.

Again, I hate comparing the Sigma to the Ultimaker 3, but it was a very similar story there late

last year, where the machine shipped with some issues that should have never made it

out the door.

Tough management and rigid deadlines in both cases?

Sounds like it.

But please, BCN3D, I know you're working on Cura 2 support etc, don't rush them out.

Do it ^right.

I know this might be a stereotypical clash between German and Spanish philosophies, but

I'd much rather have a release a few weeks later if that means you've taken some extra

time for testing and tweaking.

It doesn't change the fact, though, that the dual-extrusion system itself in the Sigma

works flawlessly and is probably the most universal and overall just the best system

for dual-extrusion out there right now.

Having two independent hotends, getting the idle one out of the way and priming it outside

the build area is priceless, it just works really well.

The calibrations wizards also do their job marvellously, but overall it feels like, right

now, the software and firmware are really holding back what the machine is capable of.

And because of that, I don't think I can really come to a final verdict on the BCN3D

Sigma R17 yet, there are still a few too many open questions that I have.

Let's just say, there's going to be more content on the Sigma R17 vs. Ultimaker 3 maybe

in, like two months, when everything should have settled in a bit?

Because the thing is, when you're buying a 3D printer for 27 hundred bucks, you're

probably going to keep it for a while and you're going to see a few software and firmware

iterations throughout its lifetime, even if that part not perfect right now.

I know that is an unsatisfying conclusion, but I don't think the current state of the

Sigma lives up to what BCN3D had envisioned with it.

So I guess, yeah, I'm looking forward to what BCN3D do next with the Sigma, there's

a lot of potential there.

If you agree, hit that like button and I'd love to know where you guy have your priorities

- would you rather have a stripped-down machine with great software or a more complex package

with everything being a bit unfinished?

PHOTOGRAPHY PROJECT FROM THE SHETLAND ISLANDS AND MORE ZINES! - Duration: 8:31.

okay this is one stack of four that are

in my living room I think it is time

because I haven't done one in weeks

let's do a little mail today

[Music]

so first up

is this book from Ed Ruttledge called the

people of Chavita and I'll share a

little at his letter with you Ed writes

Dear Ted not sure I would call the

enclosed a zine but sending it anyway I

was invited by the Civita Institute to

spend a month as artist-in-residence at

the Institute's property in Civita

di Banoregio, Italy in the fall of

2015 when accepted for this project it

was open-ended so I met with the

Institute's president and asked what are

you interested in having photographed

the people of Civita he replied - I almost

choked I have done landscape photography

my signature characteristic being no

people in my work so this was a

challenge for me yet of the photo

product that was eventually to be the

result of my month at Civita I liked the

people series the best the book was

intended to be a coffee table book for a

fundraiser images with titles only I

have added some comment via post-it

notes - Ed this is outstanding

Ed this is an excellent project and an

excellent book I will link up to further

information in the description if you

are interested in seeing more thank you

Ed this is awesome next up is a zine

and a few prints from Lee Johnson who lives

in Switzerland and I want to share a little

of his note with you this is really cool

hello Ted longtime viewer of your

YouTube channel here I have included a

little project shot about four years ago

ironically it was shot over a period of

three weeks but it was my first attempt

at taking a body of work and trying to

edit it down to something more

substantial this is a nice little zine

called The Green The Blue The Grey - it is a

photographic journey through the Pacific

Northwest which is one of my favorite

places in the United States everything

is so gorgeous out that way and you can

see that evidence in this book it's a

really nice little collection just on a

time and a place taking over a period of

about three weeks

so Lee thank you very much this is

outstanding next up this is really

awesome and it was a really nice

surprise to get this is a book that was

photographed by Tom Barr and words by

Kate Davies I believe is how you say

her name - Tom you might recognize from

the comments section he is a viewer of

the show and an excellent photographer

this book is really cool and I want to

share with you a little of his letter he

lives in Scotland and he writes dear Ted

I am a recent subscriber to your excellent

Art of Photography channel I'm sending

you a copy of my recently completed

photo documentary project, Shetland Oo

Textiles, Wool, Work - it's an exploration

of the interactions between landscape

and the people in the textile industry

of remote Shetland Islands there are two

things that especially interest me as a

photographer people at work (or play) or

where that work (or play) takes place

Shetland is a fascinating place to think

about the relationship between human

labor and place and my starting point

with the project with a desire to show

how a particular landscape has been

shaped by the work of wool and to

illustrate the many different ways in

which wool shapes humans lives in

turn I wanted to show people at work and

in places where that work occurs and

in Shetland those spaces are varied

from the cozy interiors of sheds and

living rooms to the drama of windblown

hills and cliffs my guiding principle

was that the images should suggest a real

dignity and the beauty of the work

that's done with wool and the textiles

in Shetland and hopefully capture some

of those same qualities in working with

Shetlanders themselves - this is really

beautifully written Tom this is an

excellent book I am blown away and I

don't know if i'm pronouncing it right

because I know it is a local term but I

believe that Oo is a basically a

substitute for the word wool or slang so

i guess this is Shetland Oo so if I'm

looking like a fool right now I

apologize but this book is outstanding

and guys a couple videos ago I talked

about the importance of being inspired

by things outside of photography and I

think Tom has really brought that

together with the work that he's done

with this collaborative book and it's it

is documentation of an industry

particularly in the Shetland Islands of

wool but I think it brings a lot of that

inspiration and what you see in this

book are younger people who are bringing

the

craft element back to something that is

an older industry and this is really

well done I really can't praise this

enough Tom thank you this is awesome if

you guys want to buy a copy this book it

is available and I will link that up in

the show description so check it out

ok so I want to share this with you guys

and I have to preface this by saying

that when I went to the p.o box they

handed me this box and it said it was

from Michael Koss now when I was a kid

I had this pair of KOSS headphones that

I inherited from my dad - he'd passed them

along to me and they were falling apart

but they sounded so good and I would sit

there and listen to my dad's records at

the record player when I was little I

mean we're talking like 7 or 8 and I had

these huge KOSS headphones I called him

my cans and of course now that's the

slang for headphones and so jokingly in

my mind I'm sitting there thinking that

well KOSS are probably reaching out to the

show I get this home I open it up lo and

behold this is a letter from Michael

Koss and he says dear Ted we are big

fans thanks for everything you do from

your Q&A to the artist series from you

tutorials and processing to your camera

reviews always loads of fun very

much enjoyed the fact that you can wield

an axe as an additional sauce for the

goose I play guitar too and I thought it

was very cool that he knew that

enjoy the enclosed with our thanks my son

Charlie manages our content while

freelancing out of Brooklyn I am in

based in Milwaukee hope to meet one day

thanks a million Michael J Koss

chairman and CEO KOSS corporation

Milwaukee this is awesome Michael this

is really nice thank you for your lovely

note and thank you for the headphones I

need a pair and these are really awesome

by the way my cat judy likes them too I

want to thank everybody who I featured

today that has sent something in this is

really special and it's one of the

things that I enjoy the most if you

have sent something to me and I haven't

gotten to it yet I promise I will I have

like there's a stack of mail here

there's one over here I have this it's

piling up because I haven't done a mail

video in a while and so I promise to get

to that in the next week or so now

having said that I want to add something

to this the Art of Photography the

videos that I make here for those of you

who have watched a lot of my videos I'm

sure you understand this

but the Art of Photography I don't

feature a lot of my own work I've featured

it occasionally but it's not about me - the

Art of Photography is a celebration of

photography and it's about a

conversation that we have together and

it's a celebration of the relationship

that I have making these videos with you

guys and that's really important to me

and over the years there have been a lot

of things that really stand out to me

I've done the show for nine years now

next year will be your number ten and

there's a lot of things that stand out

but the two things that are really

special to me one are the mail stuff

that you guys send when I get mail from

you guys it used to be just like one

bookshelf and i'm about to have to buy a

bookshelf for everything and it's really

special to me because this is stuff that

people you know there are other

YouTubers that do mail episodes and a

lot of time to get food or candy or

whatever they rip it open and it's just

kind of this thing where they go through

it and I am so proud that the stuff that

people send me is work it's something

that they poured their heart and soul

into and I think that's evidenced with

the stuff that I've shared with you

today there's some really amazing stuff

and I'm so proud of you guys and I'm so

excited to have you share that with me

and then I can turn around and

share it with everybody else the other

thing is Photo Assignments which is also very

special to me too and it's a little more

immediate there's no printing or

shipping or bookmaking involved but

anyway the mail stuff particularly

zines and projects that people do are

very special to me and I hope that you

guys get that out of it too i'm going to

link up to people's stuff that they've

given me likes to in the show

description if you have something that

you would like to send in my mailing

address is in the description of every

video on this channel so you can look

for it there and I'd be happy to share

things on the show so anyway guys this

has been fun if you enjoyed this video

please remember to like it share it and

as always subscribe to the art of

photography for more videos and I'll see

you in the next one until then later

Matilda, 10 and Lava, 8: "This is why we want to be identified as genderless." - Duration: 6:32.

"We should all be free like birds."

"And everyone should be whoever they are."

"We want equal wages for all genders."

"Hir, him, her, it and us."

A while ago, we got a letter to Lilla Aktuellt from the cousins Lava and Matilda, they tell us that-

-they, in some ways feel different, and it's not always easy for them to be who they really are.

We were eager to learn more about this so Sigge went to pay them a visit!

And this is the letter from Matilda and Lava - they live here, let's see them, come on!

Hello, Matilda and Lava! Here you are, here I am, how are you?

I'm good.

Nice.

You guys had something special to tell us at Lilla Aktuellt, what was it about?

We are girls but we want to be like boys...

Not many people like that. We wear - as people say - guy's clothing.

We might not act exactly how most people think girls should act like...

Girls think you should wear dresses and stuff like that...

Not all of them!

Not all girls then, but many girls say this: "Why don't you wear, if you're a girl this kind of swimsuit?"

It's Minecraft right?

Yeah, something like that.

Should we look for more clothes?

What's your favourite?

The cousins Lava and Matilda have for a long time enjoyed a certain type of clothing and both of them like short hair, for example.

Some people have difficulties understanding why the cousins look they way they do-

-and they sometimes receive questions and hurtful comments because of it.

It's new, hehe.

I also like this fleece jacket.

It can sometimes feel saddening, and sometimes you get angry.

Sometimes they say, you're not allowed to wear those clothes, you look ugly, something like that...

"Because you're a girl, you're not allowed to wear such clothes." And you get angry and sad when that happens.

It's hard to explain why people wear those clothes, there is no such thing as girlish or boyish-

-it's just something someone made up, why should there even be...

Why can't boys wear dresses and why can't girls have short hair?

Who did-... The one who made that up, he wasn't very smart I think, or she, because everyone can be whoever they are.

Everyone is allowed to look however they want and act how they want...

I don't know exactly what I imagined but it should be something like a rainbow, really...

Both Matilda and Lava is okay with people asking about their appearances if you do it in a nice way, and most people do.

For their own sake, and also to make it easier to explain to others, they call themselves "hir"-

-from a while ago, neither he or she, just like they feel inside.

I think it feels nice to not have to hold it in anymore.

Same thing here, I know now that I'm a "hir" so I can tell people that I am that, and that makes me feel calm.

I think it's really important to be who you really are because if you act like someone else even though you don't want to-

-because you are afraid to show your true self, then you feel bad.

You always want to be yourself.

[Voice of Magnus Söderman]

*sigh*

There is a reason for adults to exist in the lives of children-

-for example because children are unable to make a difference between fantasy and reality-

-for example because children don't have an impact mindset, they don't understand what their actions lead to-

-then we as adults are supposed to be there to guide them through this period-

-and what do these parents act like? They take the fantasies of these children as reality-

-fantasies that are nurtured and produced by their own parents and the world, the society, the school they go to...

No 8 year old has EVER made up the idea to challenge stereotypical gender norms and identify as "hir".

It's not something they came up with themselves, this girl Lava or her cousin Matilda - it's not something they feel for themselves.

This is an idea which their parents have planted inside them, something which this god damn school taught them-

-something which is backed by the consensus of society!

And then, after they have made them like this, they lift up the CHILDREN and put them in the box-

-where they are supposed to sit and talk about this!

This is abuse, this is child abuse, and it's institutionalized in the feminist regime of Löfven's Sweden.

This is despicable and NO-FUCKING-BODY raises their voices against this!

You are "hir."

What kind of diabolical reasonings laid ground to this?

Right has become wrong and wrong has become right and the adult world applauds this.

The church is not saying a damned thing about this, not the protestant, nor the catholic or any of those god damn cults-

-I can't see any asatru-communities take these types of funtamental struggles for humanity, for the children-

It's dead-fucking-silent!

Nobody speaks up!

Sweden Democrats, I don't hear a single squeal from them about these kind of things!

Instead it's all about immigration: "immigration, immigration, immigration."

And the worst thing is, the harmful things they do to these children, en masse, because these are not the only children.

It will not be seen until it's too late, and the children grow up in this, marinated in this insane idea of society.

When they grow up, as political battering rams, as guinea pigs in the war against reality-

-when they in turn start cutting themselves, when their mental health worsens, when suicides go through the roof-

-which they will, WITHIN 20 YEARS!

When it's all too late, perhaps people will understand what a mess they made.

But it's silent. Silent as the grave, as it it right now...

The Resale Cycle ~ Buy ~ Sell ~ Donate ~ Buy - Duration: 5:54.

[Audio Length: 0:05:54] RECORDING COMMENCES:

Rajka Hayden: Hi everyone.

Thanks so much for tuning in.

Recently I cleaned out my closet and had a little bit of extra space.

Today I'm going to show you--I've been doing some random clips--I went to three of

my favorite places over the last couple of months: Flashbacks, The Hospice Resale and

Bad Madge.

I'll show you how I sold my clothes, how that process worked, how I did and some of

the great finds that I got at these places over the last couple of months, so it's

kind of impromptu different sort of video.

Thank you so much for tuning in.

Please subscribe if you haven't already.

We are also on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook - all the great places.

Let's go see how I did.

I'm trying to sell this big bag at Flashbacks, I took another one to My Sister's Closet

earlier in the week and got some credits, and then I'll be donating the rest to The

Hospice Resale.

[music - shopping in store]

I sold some of the stuff and I'm getting part of it in trade.

I'm selling and then buying part of what I got back and then getting cash for the rest

of it, so I would say this was a success.

Look at how adorable this is.

I'm using this part of the money I get from selling clothes to buy this really fun, Hawaiian

inspired, 60s vintage dress that looks great.

Actually, it fits me like it was custom made for me, I really love this Flashbacks place.

Donating to The Hospice Resale, one of my favorite places.

I'll have to take a peek inside as I'm here.

[music - shopping in store]

I love getting my glasses here at The Hospice Resale.

I'm back at Bad Madge in South Park.

I heard through the social media grapevine that she got a haul of vintage clothes, I'm

going to go check them out.

[music - shopping in store]

I'm here at Bad Madge and Company and I got to meet Denialle, who is the designer

and owner of this line The Oblong Box Shop and it's a line that Tanya carries in the

store.

Really cute retro looking kind of stuff.

Can you tell us a little bit about the line?

Denialle: Well, I mostly specialize in novelty prints.

I design all the fabric myself and I have it printed and made into the skirts.

I'm also working on these new tops that I have.

These are my double cross tops right here.

You can criss-cross them in the front or in the back and they have some nice padding right

here and they're really stretchy so they can fit a lot of people.

Rajka: Great.

Definitely going to give that one a try.

Like I said, it's really fun to go to your local shops and be able to meet designers

and support locally run people and shops, so thank you so much.

I'm looking forward to trying that on and we'll maybe take a picture of it when I

have it on.

This is a really cute dress, I'm going to try this on, hoping that it fits.

A little bit of sparkle and then the back has some lace.

I love this dress too, I'll show you it goes down and has a slit in the back.

But look at this cool detailing in the little arms.

I also like this little butterfly top which looks very cute and sort of modern now with

the holes.

I'm also getting this really cute black top from Denialle's line, the designer that

we got to meet, and I will wear this all the time.

I'm getting this gorgeous dress, it's really cute on and I just need to do a little

bit of altering, it's a tiny bit big, it vintage.

Gorgeous.

I love it.

That was fun.

I hope you got to see how to see the clothes and how I was able to use some of those proceeds

to buy a couple of great finds.

It's also really good to go into these places not knowing exactly what you want, and you

come out with some really good things.

I hope that motivated you.

If you're doing some resale selling and buying, please let me some comments, I'd

love to hear about your favorite finds.

Thanks for tuning in and until next time, dress it up a little.

Android に格安 SIM を挿して運用するためにモバイルネットワークの APN を設定する方法 - Duration: 3:32.

How to set the APN of the mobile network in order to operate it refers to a cheap SIM to Android

Hello everyone

This time, we will introduce how to set the APN of the mobile network in order to operate refers to a cheap SIM to Android

Also recently has been spread MVNO services such as SIM-free Android smartphone or cheap SIM in Japan

If you want to use the cheap SIM, basically it is necessary to perform a set of mobile network name (APN),

Also no longer be able to use the data communication in the mobile network refers to the cheap SIM If you do not do this setting

Because by cheap SIM and Android smartphones are also those that have the APN information from the beginning, but there are also things that can be the use of data communication only by inserting a SIM,

Since the loss even if you know the APN setting method is also applicable effective against not, those who do not know I think you'll remember all means

The APN information to companies that provide cheap SIM before you set the APN has published prepared at hand, and please keep insert the cheap SIM to Android

Not if you can not perform the APN settings inserted the SIM

How to actually set the APN of Android is you enjoy slightly different procedures depending on the model and OS version, the setting items are stored in substantially the same location

First, open the settings of Android, in the "Wireless and network" category and touch the item, such as "More" and "data communication"

This part is different from me on the model, but basically will flow to touch the related items "network" or "mobile communication"

And then touch the "mobile network" is displayed

In addition to touch the items, such as is the "access point name" and "APN" display

Is a list of APN the page to be displayed is set to Android

To set up the new APN is, at the top of the screen "+" and then touch the icon

We will continue to enter the APN information you just provided to each item of this screen

APN setting item of there fine, but basically will be the only set five of the "name", "APN" "Username" "Password" "Authentication Type"

Others do not need to touch

The "name" will not be able to save the settings and do not enter, but this is not a problem in any of the name

Touch the top right corner of the menu icon After you enter each item, and then touch the "Save"

This APN set in will be saved

If you enable and then touch the button to the APN the right side after was set name, it should be able to mobile network data communication of cheap SIM that is inserted in Android

Please have a look at the set again because if the data communication by the mobile network at this time does not start there is a possibility is incorrect APN

Above, was the introduction of how to set the APN of the mobile network in order to operate it refers to a cheap SIM to Android

India Doesn't Require F 16s When it has the LCA Tejas - Duration: 11:32.

PRIME MINISTER Narendra Modi's visit to the US to meet President Donald J Trump is

now on the front burner, with an emphasis on 'deliverables'.

If Delhi is keen on easing the H1B visa regime for Indian techies, Washington is eager that

Modi sign up for the fourth generation F-16, a deal seen as 'open sesame' for endless

future transactions on military hardware, and implement the Logistics Exchange Memorandum

of Agreement.

If the fourth generation F-16 is the key, what does it say about India that the BJP

Government is interested in an antique American combat aircraft, optimised for air warfare

of the 1970s, as a frontline fighter for the Indian Air Force well into the 21st century?

The Lockheed F-16 and the Swedish SAAB (Svenska Aeroplan Aktie Bolag) JAS 39 Gripen are competing

for the single-engined fighter slot in the IAF, a requirement casually conceived to fill

the gap the indigenous Tejas Light Combat Aircraft (LCA), earmarked to replace the large

numbers of the Russian MiG-21 as the bulk combat aircraft in the Air Force, has failed

to meet.

It is another matter that the delays suffered by the Tejas programme can be traced mainly

to machinations to derail it, including frequent changes in specifications, and the ordering

of the LCA in small batches to curtail economies of scale and deter HAL and private companies

from investing in multiple LCA production lines.

Despite starting with negligible technology and industrial capability, the LCA is operational,

has impressed as a compact, multi-role, highly agile, fly-by-wire, 4.5 generation warplane,

and can even become an export revenue earner for the country.

So, why isn't Modi publicly hailing Tejas as a remarkable story of Indian grit, talent

and technological innovation, and as a showcase for his 'Make in India' policy and the

country's capacity to design complex weapons systems?

He should be ensuring that the IAF is invested fully in the aircraft, and that it is a runaway

military and commercial success at home and abroad.

Except, it turns out that, as Baba Kalyani of Bharat Forge observed at Aerospace India

2017, by 'Make in India' Modi probably means 'Assemble in India', and that too,

any old piece of foreign equipment.

The Prime Minister's aim apparently is to draw American defence manufacturing companies

to set up shop here, solidify India's status as 'major defence partner' of the US,

and use the F-16 (and possibly the Boeing F-18) to extract more 'give' from Trump

on issues dear to him.

The collateral benefits Modi espies are the firming up of the ruling party's financial

support base among NRIs in America (and the West generally), and enhancing his electoral

appeal among the Indian middle-class.

It also suggests that Modi is reconciled to America not delivering on cutting-edge technologies,

or committing itself to jointly designing and developing advanced armaments, a reluctance

evidenced in the US Congress rejecting NATO-partner status for India and the India-US Defence

Technology & Trade Initiative being a non-starter, with only technologically obsolete weaponry

phased out by the US military—the M-777 ultra-light howitzer, the aged F-16 and F-18,

etcetera—being offered for licensed manufacture.

The IAF has always liked the Gripen, the reason why Sweden jumped in with the E variant in

the race against the F-16 Block 70.

But both Gripen E, almost the same as the NG (New Generation) and Block 70, only another

name for the 'IN Super Viper', had entered the Medium Multi-Role Combat Aircraft (MMRCA)

sweepstakes, which Modi settled with his impulse purchase in April 2015 of 36 Rafales from

France.

On a comparative basis though, which of these aircraft is superior?

S Paul Kapur and Sumit Ganguly, in a piece, 'F-16s, Made in India: Second Best may be

Best' in Foreign Affairs, while acknowledging that set alongside Gripen, the F-16 is 'second

best', nevertheless argue that the American aircraft is the better buy because the benefits

to India from dealing with the US, a great power, outweigh the gains from dealing with

Sweden, a fairly marginal European state.

Moreover, they claim, it's a selection that will build 'trust' and 'bind the two

countries together' in the larger geopolitical contest afoot against China.

Allowing the assembly of F-16s in India is not the preferred option for America either,

they maintain, as Lockheed would rather have India as a 'customer'.

And, after rubbishing the Tejas as under-powered, under-performing and not induction- ready

aircraft, they aver that the F-16 or even the Gripen will reverse the trend of the Air

Force's supposed depleting squadron strength.

But a 'second best' fighter plane for India in the context of the top- of-the-line

Su-30s for strike missions and MiG-29s for distant air defence in the IAF inventory makes

no sense unless Delhi agrees with Washington's assessment of the Indian military as second

rate and India as Third World.

An economic case for the F-16 was reportedly made by Ashley Tellis of Carnegie Endowment

directly to Modi.

Predictably, he greatly under- estimates the F-16 unit cost and lifetime costs, and exaggerates

the size of the supposedly uptapped global market for 500 F-16s, and for spares for more

than 3,500 of this aircraft operating worldwide.

Also, his contention that the production monopoly of this aircraft immunises India against a

US cutoff of critical items for the F-16, is iffy at best.

But the knowledgeable Tellis can be convincing especially to an Indian audience predisposed

to believe him.

The fact though is that with the up-front payment for the transfer of the F-16 assembly

line to India and for the full complement of SKD and CKD kits for aircraft assembly,

there's no incentive for Washington not to shut down the F-16 or any other supply

line at will should Delhi not conform to the contingent US policy interests.

In light of Trump's 'America First' outlook, there's already some backsliding

with Lockheed saying that 25 per cent of the production of F-16 spares and critical assemblies

would be retained at its Fort Worth plant in Texas, which could be a precursor to its

deciding that continued production of this aircraft in small numbers in the US serves

its interests, just so workers don't lose jobs and Trump is kept happy.

In the event, paying an awful lot of money for a vintage aircraft and, instead of facilitating

the country's entry into the global supply chain, seeing the F-16 become an albatross

around India's neck, is a real prospect.

Then again, how does the Tejas compare with the other planes?

According to the just retired LCA project chief, Commodore CD Balaji in an interview

to Aeromag Asia, the LCA "is far superior to the MiG-21 in all aspects", and "far

ahead in terms of technologies and performance …to the Chinese JF-17 [flown by the Pakistan

Air Force], and [is] at par with Gripen."

But which aircraft has the operational edge?

In aerial warfare with Beyond Visual Range weapons, the ability to locate an adversary

aircraft is of paramount importance, and here a fully loaded LCA has a lethal edge in terms

of its very small radar cross section of 0.5 sq m.

Relative to Gripen's RCS of 0.7 sq m plus, and of between 3 sq m and 6 sq m for the F-16

and Rafale, the Tejas, is virtually invisible.

Making the LCA stealthier still is the fact that 40 per cent of its body is made of radar-absorbing

carbon composites versus 25 per cent for Gripen, and 10 per cent for F-16.

Moreover, armed with an entirely tested and proven all-Indian designed and developed ordnance

suite of the Surdarshan laser- guided bomb, Astra air-to-air radar-homing missile, and

outfitted with the Uttam Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar, the Tejas weapons

system is powerful.

The weapons (like the French Meteor missile at $5 million each) carried by Gripen and

Rafale, on the other hand, are all inordinately expensive and will incur very high expenditure

to obtain and periodically to replenish the weapons stocks for the lifetime of the aircraft.

Further, unlike Gripen E, which has yet to pull speed taxi trials, will enter Swedish

service in 2020, and whose AESA radar has tested 'unstable', the Tejas has logged

over 3,000 flying hours, successfully negotiated the most onerous flight regimes, and proven

itself in war exercises in the air defence and ground attack roles.

Notwithstanding everything in its favour, including national pride, should the Tejas

be sidelined, it will perpetuate India's status as an arms dependency and mock the

country's technological ambition.

If the F-16 is chosen, it will end up reducing India to a spear-carrier for the US.

Were Gripen to get the nod, then as the long-time DRDO's resident wit, the now retired rocket

engineer, V Siddhartha punned, it will be because Modi believes in 'SAAB ke saath,

SAAB ka vikaas'.

Fate of the Furious- Vin Diesel's Feeling For Paul Walker || Tube Time - Duration: 2:32.

In a speech paying tribute to the late Paul Walker, his friend and co-star, who died in

2013, Diesel said it was Walker who was behind the making of the eighth film – the first

not to feature Walker.

"It was Paul Walker who promised eight," Diesel said according to Variety.

"It played over and over again in my brain."

Diesel added, "Part of Paul's legacy lives through every frame that we shoot.

You are reminded of this angel that was so integral to this concept of brotherhood for

our millennium.

There's something beautiful about that.

There's something celebratory about that….

I always feel like he's looking down on us so we didn't want to let him down."

After Diesel's tribute, Universal surprised the audience with an unexpected screening

of "Fate of the Furious."

In 2015, Diesel honored his friendship with Walker by naming his daughter Pauline.

Walker died at the age of 40 following a fiery single-car crash in California.

At the time, Diesel said while he was in the hospital, he named her Pauline.

"There's no other person that I was thinking about as I was cutting this umbilical cord.

I knew he was there and it felt like, you know, a way to keep his memory a part of my

family and a part of my world."

Directed by "Straight Outta Compton" F. Gary Gray, "The Fate of the Furious,"

sees the family broken up after Dominic Toretto aligns himself with an international criminal,

turning his former teammates into rivals.

It stars Diesel, Charlize Theron, Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham, Helen Mirren, Nathalie Emmanuel,

Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, Scott Eastwood, and Kurt Russell.

The film kicks off a new trilogy, and hits theaters on April 14.
