Yeeeep. I did this. Very disheartening after spending the time with a Dremel to modify the back panel enough for it to fit.

I think it might be a bell, but definitely some kind of collar accessory thing.

That was a fascinating read, thank you for sharing! The fact that Tolkien's world can be analyzed to this degree and still make sense is absolutely mind boggling to me.

I've been driving myself insane for 10 minutes over this; what is the garnish?

This is probably on the right track, but just wanted to add a little detail. Elastic deformation is when something fully springs back to its original shape. Plastic deformation has some spring back, but some portion of the deformation remains after the force is removed. Unless of course you bend it to the point of breaking. I'd imagine that means that in the brittle zone in the image there's virtually no deformation, just force applied until a break occurs.

Excellent username! I needed a reminder that losing is Fun™️ this morning.

Yes, stop doing engineering and do something actually valuable for the station! Like grow hydroponic weed, or leave vials of thermite everywhere, or beat the mime senseless...

Something about the professional, detached tone combined with the absolute slapstick insanity of the article's content makes this perfect comedy

If they made mystery flavored drinks like mystery flavored air heads, I'd buy them.

I bet you could Photoshop in one! Probably would be less blurry 😂
