Running a manufacturing unit is challenging due to various external and internal factors. While companies invest in the efficiency of their staff through corporate training, they also need to enhance the efficiency of machines. Therefore, the production becomes static at a certain saturation point. Nevertheless, production needs to be improved due to the wear and tear of the machines.

The introduction of predictive maintenance has changed the scenario drastically, as manufacturing units can now predict the maintenance and repair required for a production unit. According to the reports, the global predictive maintenance market size was 7.3 billion USD in 2022. But, the market size will be around 64.3 billion USD by 2030. So, the huge growth in market size suggests that IoT predictive maintenance is the next big thing.

A little explainer on what happened with AO3:

Basically, someone or a group of someones decided to levy a DDoS attack. What this means is that they created a botnet (network of devices controlled by a bot, usually run in the background of an unsecured IoT device or computer being used for other things. Think data mining) to flood the servers with false requests for service.

What this does mean: AO3 might go back down, if the attack is relaunched. These types of attacks are usually used against businesses where traffic = money, thereby costing a company money. This isn't really an issue here since AO3 is entirely donation and volunteer based.

What this doesn't mean: stories, bookmarks, etc will be deleted and your anonymously published works will be linked back to you. No vulnerable points are breached during this process, so unless this group ends up doing something else, no data breaches will happen. You are safe, your content is safe.

They are death

Every single one of them, you know that

You were hired by your own uncle Chris McLean to be a intern at Total Drama, you would be something like a camp counselor! Your job was to check the campists

People said your uncle was a amazing guy, but you knew it was a lie, you never knew anyone more arrogant that him

Well, at least you have something to do at summer! And it would be fun see some drama...

Your job was to be a baby-sitter to resume, you were checking up and taking care of tennagers! People of your age! It was kinda fun but you were so tired of them

The nice thing is that they seemed to like you! Even Heather, but sometimes they were acting toward you(you thought that was weird cause it dind't make so many time you knew them)

It was going to have a challenger! Everyone was there except for Beth, you decided to look for her

In the florest you decided to worry, where is she? You heard a sound in the cave, as the beautiful curious you are, you got in

A bloody axe...

A lost arm...

Her body was bloody

She was dead.

SHE WAS DEAD!?

You wanted to throw up, the smell of blood...

You felt sick

You Chris and the interns, and they discover that a killer is in the island, what should we do!?

Chris had the idea of left the campers here

You tried to convice him other wise, but when you noticed you already in a boat leaving the island, you felt guilty, Chris made you leave them

Chris dind't left you because how would him explain this to your parents? Your Mother would kill him!

And when you came back home, he said to tell that you were in vacation...?

You passed the next months feeling guilty and sick, you wanted to throw up, and sometimes you really did it

You should had stayed, or at least try to convice Chris....

One day, Chris called you to go with him and two new interns to go back to the island and save them

You knew why Chris was doing that

He wanted to be the hero, that's it

But you decided to go, cause now it's time

Time to the truth, and let's be honest

You were afraid of the truth.

꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦

I left the boat, this place looks so weird to be honest, you felt sick again

Something was wrong, you knew that! But now it's time

What happend to them

" I hope they are okay... "

I was afraid, afraid to go anywhere in this island, i dind't wanted to do that, but at same time...

I was scared

I felt something in your shoulder, a hand

" Don't worry Y/n! We going to find them, i hope... "

Sierra was trying to comfort me, but i could look at her eyes and see that she knew the truth

" Amigos! Everything will be alright, but i hope we have everything to survive here, Chris dind't explain so well "

Alejandro was in Sierra's side while looking at the island and looking around, he was right, Chris dind't explained how would you guys find the others, does him even know how to walk around this island?

I don't think so

" Can we stop to talk! Come on you- we have job to do! "

Chris said and started to walk, me, Sierra and Alejandro just followed him

Something is wrong in this place, i feel watched while walking

Oh god.

Reading qphil's arc as DID makes his conversation with Tallulah so much more emotional to me.

(Rose) She used to protect us but now she can't . We can't talk about him (Ender). Talking about it causes more problems, it's going to make people ask more questions. We can't go telling people these secrets.

like, this is a conversation that people with DID who have families who know about it have, or even just people with DID talking to their alters. you can't tell your friends and your neighbors and your doctors and people you know, it's not safe. it makes people ask questions, makes people question your safety and sanity and everything else.

"I'm doing this for us?" "Are you?"

This is a conversation that people with DID have with themselves a Iot. Is what we're doing actually to help each other, or just ourselves? Is it just to maintain an unhealthy and sometimes dangerous status quo? It applies similarly in a dynamic with a family, especially one so open and close as Phil's.

You can't be telling people, Tallulah. Its gonna cause problems, okay. They're going to want to ask more, I'm going to have to explain this now. It starts a web of lies.

Most people with DID live covertly. That is, you probably won't know they have it unless they tell you. They mask and they hide and they lie, frequently even from themselves. Many people don't know they have the disorder because they are so deeply hiding. Denial is a key symptom.

Phil, like Fit said in the stream, isn't a very good liar. This is true. But holy fuck is he good at avoiding, minimizing, denying, and dissociating from it all.

And, most importantly:

"I'm sorry for shouting at you... You broke our trust. We weren't supposed to tell anyone else."

People with DID often view themselves as a 'we,' on account of the multiple separate states of identity. The 'we' is Phil, Rose, and Ender.

WOOOOOOO IS THIS PART 3?!

(Motivation is killing me guys)

'Well, that sucked.' I thought to myself, looking around. I reeeeeally hoped Cody would survive, because if he didn't, I'm going to have a mental breakdown.

I looked down at my reflection, or , more accurately, Justin.

"Justin?" I tilted my head.

"Hm?" He said impatiently, "Don't ask me for sympathy. You all forgot me."

"Lookie here, buddy, as much as a hottie you are, I can't stand you, so maybe zip it."

"Because I'm ugly now?"

"Because I never liked you. Anti-me sorta thingy," I explained.

"Explain, Noah." He covered his face with his hands in the reflection.

"Beauty over brains," I said simply

"Makes sense." And he disappeared.

I spent my days just, swiming around. It was quite literally the only thing I could do. Water and Books are not a great mixture.

So passed the years.

Cody?

He was older now, he looked like a senior now.

"Noah?" He asked.

He saw me.

"Cody? Y- you're there?" I tried to leap out of the water, but, I was trapped there.

"You're.." his eyes started to swell with tears.

"In the water? I know. I can't get out. Really inconvenient." I sigh "But at least Justin's there,always in my fucking reflection."

"... Justin..?" He inquired.

"Yes, Justin." I said, exasperated. "He appears in reflections, water reflects, we talk."

"So uhhhh- Noah- I would like to apologise. I shouldn't've left you."

"You could've died! Are you kidding me?"

"...I perfer that over Duncan's bullying."

"Duncan.. he.." My fists balled up, my teeth gritting. "Why?"

"For 'being a crybaby'"

"Bet he was crying for his mama when Courtney died." I almost could feel the disappointment Cody had.

"...Sorry, Cody." I said, giggling.

"Noah, no."

"Why not?" I looked at him, "He killed me. Indirectly, but HE KILLED ME."

"Noah, you've become violent." He shook his head, like a disappointed father. "Where's the sweet guy under the cynicism?"

"He's gone. Dying would've done this to you too!"

"Noah."

"... Sorry," I huffed.

"So uh, Duncan's been broken since Courtney's death."

"Can't imagine mine. Totally wasn't there."

"Noah, could you please try and listen?!"

"No can do! He let me die! Why would-"

"I'm not asking you to forgive or forget, I just want you to understand that he's not the same!"

And with that, Cody turned around, and walked away.

"Noah, if I come back and you still are deadset on revenge, I will personally try and make you pass on."

The report on the approximate air support competition between the A-10 and the F-35 appears

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 03/11/2023 - 22:35in Military

A newly emerged report offers some new details about a test that compared the A-10 Warthog attack plane and the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter attack fighter, but raises more questions about the ability of the 5ª generation jet to complete the A-10's approximate air support mission.

The confidential report, completed in February 2022 by the Department of Defense's Testing and Evaluation Office, was recently released with heavy writings to the Government Supervision Project, which sued the Pentagon in a federal court after its FOIA request for the report was denied.

The report describes the results of an approximate air support flight between the F-35A and the A-10C, which was determined by Congress in the National Defense Authorization Act of 2017 and carried out in 2019.

The test was conducted in “low and medium threat environments” and not in a hostile or high threat environment because the “F-35A, along with the F-35B and F-35C, is being thoroughly evaluated during the IOT&E of the F-35 in high threat scenarios versus modern and dense combat aircraft and surface-to-air missiles, missions for which the A-10C was not designed,” the report said.

No ground troops participated in the flight, which does not “invalidate the conclusions of this report,” DOT&E wrote in the report. "However, a more dynamic and representative environment may be required for operational testing of these missions to evaluate improvements in the performance of these or any other systems under test."

Many details are hidden in the version released for POGO. For example, it says that the A-10 “allowed more attacks than the typical loading of the F-35A,” but does not reveal how many targets each aircraft hit in the test.

The A-10 and F-35 involved in the flyoff flew a combined total of 117 and a half hours of flight in 69 missions. A complete analysis of the sorties and flight hours, as well as when and where these tests took place, in the three sets of missions, is seen above.

The essays make it difficult to discern the context of some of the statements. But there are indications that it took more F-35 missions than A-10 missions to fulfill some missions. For example, this half-sentence ("more A-10C sorties would be necessary to attack the same number of targets") is followed by this text: "The number of sorties needed to complete the same mission objectives in contested environments would depend on air defense suppression plans."

This may result in part of the A-10's ability to carry more ammunition. The attack plane was designed around a huge 30mm GAU-8 cannon that contains 1,350 cartridges of ammunition, while the F-35's 25mm GAU-22 cannon can carry only about 181 cartridges.

Elsewhere, the report noted the ability of the A-10 to fly closer to the targets than the F-35:

"The test team did not record the inclined range of the target with the generated coordinates, so its effect cannot be evaluated directly. Even so, tactics usually caused A-10C pilots to fly closer to the target than F-35A pilots, which could explain some of the differences in measured location errors. The target location error only affects the use of GPS-aided weapons. In any case, the location error is sufficient to indicate the aiming pod of another aircraft [approximate air support].

A table listing various competitive capabilities between the F-35A and A-10C at the time of flyoff. DOD via FOIA/POGO

The report also noted that the most recent weapon did not always manage to fire in a straight line. DOT&E told the Pentagon to “fix the F-35A cannon, improve digital communication, video data linkability and interoperability with 4ª generation aircraft, and develop training programs to further improve the effectiveness of the F-35A in these missions.”

Russ Goemaere, spokesman for the F-35 Joint Program Office, said that the program "improved" the weapon and interoperability of the jet with 4ª generation fighters and said that "they are effective".

In his own analysis, Dan Grazier of POGO wrote: "Despite the heavy essays in the released report, it is clear that the results of these flawed tests disappointed the constituted powers. If the F-35 had been the winner, there would be no doubt that a clear and declarative statement of this fact would have appeared prominently in the initial paragraph of the report."

The U.S. Air Force did not want to comment on the report, nor did it say whether the leaders of the armed forces tried to prevent the release of the report. A spokesman said that close air support is a mission, not a specific platform.

"The future force will inherently be capable of approximate air support, with multifunctional capabilities to ensure survivability in all scenarios. Although successful in permissive environments, the A-10 will not have the ability to survive in a highly disputed future fight,” said service spokeswoman Ann Stefanek.

The U.S. military has made intense use of the A-10 in recent decades, moving it to Iraq for multiple conflicts and to Afghanistan against the Taliban. More recently, the U.S. sent Warthogs to the Middle East to deter aggression and prevent the spread of the Israel-Hamas war.

Air Force officers have sought to retire the A-10, which was introduced in 1977 as a Soviet tanker. But their arguments - that money would be better applied to more modern aircraft, that satellite and laser-guided bombs were sufficient for close air support missions - met strong resistance from legislators whose districts housed A-10 or ground troops they protect. Still, the last few years seem to be ending the service of the plane.

When asked about the report, one of the prominent members of the House Armed Services Committee said he is ready to say goodbye to the A-10 - if not its capabilities. Congressman, chairman of the tactical subcommittee on air and ground forces of the HASC, says he is confident that the Air Force will be able to find a way to maintain approximate air support capabilities as it advances to the F-35.

very specific question, but what would the names alexa and lauren sound like in high valyrian?

The same.

In general, your name is your name; it doesn't sound different in a different language save the fact that different languages have different sound systems, so Lauren in Spanish would sound like Lauren pronounced with the accent of someone who speaks Spanish natively.

The phenomenon of some name being uniquely different in one language vs. another—like Charles in English vs. Carlos in Spanish—is that both names come from a common source and have surfaced in the modern languages differently. It's like how English paper and Spanish papel both came from the same word—Latin papȳrus. Thus, the two words can be thought of as different versions of the same word (at least phonologically), just like Charles and Carlos are different versions of the same name.

If you want to ask what the Japanese version of Charles is, though, it doesn't work. The name has no history in Japan. There is no Japanese version of Charles the way there is a Spanish and French version of Charles (or an English version of Carlos, if you prefer; same difference). Thus, the Japanese "version" of Charles is just Charles pronounced with a Japanese accent (likely modified in some specific and consistent way, since Japanese speakers have had regular contact with people bearing the name Charles for more than a century, so they're used to it and have a way of pronouncing it, much like English speakers have a way of pronouncing the last name Nguyễn. It's not correct, but it's consistent enough that that is the way you pronounce it in English/Japanese, depending on which name we're talking about).

For a created language from a fictional universe, one would likely assume that the languages have no shared history at all with any of our languages, and so all of them would be treated as completely foreign names, and likely borrowed in verbatim, or close to it. It is true that in Westeros there are names that are uncomfortably close to English names, but recall that the Valyrian language had its heyday well before Aegon's conquest. Valyrian speakers wouldn't have had regular contact with Westerosi speakers, and so wouldn't have had a tradition of assimilating their names. The same wouldn't be said of Ghiscari names, Dothraki names, Asshai'i names, etc. With those names there are probably consistent patterns of assimilation that have built up over the centuries. For Westerosi names, though, all that would've happened after the Doom of Valyria.

Now, as Valyrian continued as a traditional language of education and refinement in wealthy Westerosi households (both as a result of the Citadel and Targaryen rule), maybe maester's would've come up with a consistent way to assimilate a few of them. Sometimes the names are too short—like Jon. That'd be Jon or Ion in Valyrian. Too short, because the genitive would be Jo/Io, dative Jot/Iot, etc. You'd lose part of the name. So they throw an ending on it to make it clear—Jonos/Ionos (and I made the vowel long, myself—Iōnos). A name like Lauren, though, fits well enough. So does Alexa. Neither of them, though, is a Valyrian name, and Valyrian doesn't have a version of either name. You just say them with a Valyrian accent.

Hope that explains it!

Bandai Chose Amazon Web Services for Tamagotchi Uni for Two Reasons

By now we all know that Bandai partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) when creating the Tamagotchi Uni. This fuels many features from over the air software updates, and more. In a recent interview with Yuri Okamoto (left) and Daisuke Sakamoto (right), they explain why Tamagotchi Uni uses AWS, and not other platforms such as Azure or Oracle.

According to Mr. Sakamoto, there are two main reasons for adopting AWS as a cloud platform that realizes a series of functions. The first is that AWS provided FreeRTOS, which was decided to be adopted as the OS of the Tamagotchi Uni. FreeRTOS is a real-time operating system kernel for embedded devices. This provides ease of cooperation with the cloud, especially AWS.

The goal for Tamagotchi Uni was to be able to get Tamagotchi users excited all over the world, which was critical during the planning stage.

Second, AWS provided the security Bandai was looking for. This included device authentication. "When it comes to releasing it all over the world and distributing content on the same model, technically, in addition to device authentication, security that children are not exposed to malicious intent is important. Based on that, we compared and examined the IoT services of each company, and as a result, we contacted the AWS inquiry window," said Sakamoto.

"Tamagotchi has released a different series in Japan and overseas, and recently the ones for Europe and the United States have become popular. I think that the global visibility has also increased, and I wanted to provide content where Tamagotchi users from all over the world can get excited together here." (Mr. Okamoto).

Using AWS Bandai is also able to collect data on how children play with Tamagotchi. They do not collect personal information but they are able to measure which items are polar, and Bandai will make sure of that information in the future for content production.

"As a feature of products equipped with Wi-Fi and connected to the cloud, we can now see information such as how much it is played. I want to connect such information to the improvement of future play." (Mr. Sakamoto)

[totally-not-my-drama]

Character info 1

Edith: Let's start with my very first Character Edith. Since she is in alot of AUs I say some basic info first. Edith is around the same age as the very first contestense of total drama (I say around Ezekiels age). She is an only child of two lawyers, who in a way smother her to bits. She is still humble and always polite nontheless, but also pretty naiv and gullible, easily to manipulate. Her earliest memories were often in the hospital, checking on her failing heart, which is also the reason she competes in total drama (maybe not the best course of action, but who knows). She wants to win the money so she can pay for a heart transplant herself (and gain a bit of independence/ freedom). When she was around 12 an accident happened in which she was alone at home and accidentally start a fire. While she managed to get out an explosion happened and hit the left side alot. two things she absolutely loves to do are playing Violin and ghost hunting (I like to add that she can see ghosts that haunt places but it rather comes up in IOTS than the original) She has been in island, halfway in action and all-stars.

Bonus A few fake screenshots:

Total Drama Omori: In this AU, Edith takes on the role of Omori/ Sunny. She is much more closed off and doesn't act like herself anymore, reacting later to things, a bit of a disregard of her own live and rather doesn't react with anybody, scared she could hurt them.

Last but not least IOTS version: There Edith is still like the original, has the same personality and still loves ghost hunting (here it's more aware that she is able to see ghosts). Her story would play months after the iots events and through the internet she found out about this haunted place. Now she is on the island looking for the paranormal activitys that are rumored to be there. Tho she might have been a bit too curious for her own good!

Ever after high AU: While still in concept, Edith would be the daughter of the beauty from beauty and the beast. She isn't playing exactly a so big role, but she would be at the beginning be the Roomate for Noelle/Noah and later Mike (I will explain in time). The Fire mentioned earlier happens actually a bit before the story plays so the wounds are still fresh.

that was all so far. There is definetly more to come. see you guys soon!
