A left-handed sheet bend creates a much weaker connection, especially under moderate loads.
I just noticed this info on the xkcd website for the first time:
xkcd.com is best viewed with Netscape Navigator 4.0 or below on a Pentium 3±1 emulated in Javascript on an Apple IIGS at a screen resolution of 1024x1. Please enable your ad blockers, disable high-heat drying, and remove your device from Airplane Mode and set it to Boat Mode. For security reasons, please leave caps lock on while browsing.
Randall is such a genius.
Boat Mode needs to be a thing, I don’t know what it does but I want it.
It unlocks your screen rotation settings and links screen orientation to the phones gyroscopic sensor to maintain orientation perpendicular to the horizon.
It’d be like the phone equivalent of Linux’s diagonal monitor orientation, only now the touch screen experience is beyond fucked.
Strangely enough this might work for round smart watches though.
