Nice?

Greetings Much has been written re/ the smile of Leonardo da Vinci Mona Lisa After viewing a close up at Wikipedia Sfumato - Wikipedia[^] I am more convinced then prior a possible reason for the fascination is a detail I am surprised has not been previously spoken Namely it seems to me the left corner of her smile is higher than the right So her smile is not a smile but a smirk In measuring this w/ a ruler w/ maximum image magnification the "error bars" or uncertainty in the precise location of each corner is greater for her right being centered lower than the center measurement of her left with the result the overall impression is that of a smirk At least to my eye I would be please to know of other's impressions and mesurements - Cheerio

If you look at actual human beings, you will find we are almost never symmetrical: and although da Vinci was an engineer and an artist he almost certainly didn't start measuring his subjects with a micrometer or a vernier gauge!
Instead, he would have painted what looked best - what flattered the subject and created a "right" painting.
You can destroy art by over-examining it*, you know ...
* or even create art where none exists: most "modern art" for example.

I bought this 5.25 inch floppy disk drive EPSON SD-680L from eBay. I looked it today and see its power connector is not the standard FDD power connector.
the rear image is here .
so I try to ask gurus here to see if anyone can recognize this power connector type and data line type(I think 34-pin Ribbon will work)....
diligent hands rule....

That's a standard 5.25 interface. 4pin power, 34pin ribbon data.
3.5 and 5.25 use different power connectors. This one is made by Molex (or at least to their design)

I can't speak of Dell's Desktop... but my Dell Laptop of 2011 is still runing perfectly. Back in the day (around 2013, still under warranty) I had a problem with the heat... I called in, it got repaired and never had another issue.

I found this very entertaining! The guy is a great storyteller! It's a long vid that's not so flattering for Dell. HTE can they sell a PC at that price point with any standard/discount components?
It makes me laugh when family/friends ask for advice on buying a new PC. They skip right past the lower priced models insisting that they need that i7 (certainly not AMD!) and 32GB ram for email and surfing the web! My current machine is an off-the-shelf mid-priced Lenovo (desktop) with the only upgrade being the SSD. I've built my own in the past but they've all been rather noisy. This thing is whisper quiet and boots quick enough. Unfortunately though it shows as questionable or not compatible with Win11!
