@jake4480@c.imAlmost 3 hours is too fucking long for a movie. The Mandalorian and Grogu was two hours and 20 minutes, that was do-able as I like Star Wars, Mandalorian, Grogu stuff in general. I heard about this new 'Possession' movie that's like, 2 hours and 50 minutes long. You're telling me there's nothing you could've cut to make that a shorter, better running time? Fuck that.

@arXiv_physicsfludyn_bot@mastoxiv.pageDesigning single-layer PDMS devices for micron to millimeter-scale deformations
Leon Valentin Gebhard, Alexandre S. Avaro, Gabriel Amselem, Charles N. Baroud
https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.17402 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2605.17402 https://arxiv.org/html/2605.17402
arXiv:2605.17402v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: The elasticity of PDMS has played a central role in advancing important microfluidic technologies, ranging from early valves to sophisticated organ-on-a-chip systems. However, most deformable microfluidic devices are based on geometries that require complex multi-layer PDMS architectures and include thin membranes, leading to difficult microfabrication and poor stability. Recently, Jain, Belkadi et al. (Biofabrication 16.3 (2024): 035010) introduced a single-layer device in which a wide and long microfluidic channel was deformed by controlling the pressure in two independent and adjacent air chambers. While they demonstrated the ability to deform the channel ceiling to compress biological materials, the design parameters remain unexplored. Here, we perform a numerical study on 14,336 variants of this device and identify the height of the PDMS layer, the width of the microchannel and the width of the air chamber as the main features that determine the ceiling deformation. Three deformation modes are observed as the geometrical parameters are varied: A U shape with a central minimum, a W shape with two minima and a central maximum, or an inverse U shape with an upward-bulging single maximum. The numerical results are validated in experiments that reproduce the three shapes for the predicted geometries and demonstrate vertical ceiling deformations ranging from a few microns to the millimeter scale. The generality of this approach is demonstrated for two example applications: A fully closing single-layer microfluidic valve and an optical lens of controllable anisotropy. This work leverages the rapid prototyping enabled by 3D printing or micro-milling to open new perspectives in microfluidic actuation.

The records do not detail how many of these children were detained or deported with their parents, and how many families were split up.
