New GD&T Engine: FreeForm Surface Profile

[[Lo...]]

Hello everyone

Has anyone else noticed the new GD&T engine will not let you surface profile freeform surfaces? Hopefully this is temporary, I can't find anywhere that the new engine will interact with FF surfaces

This is a bit off topic, but every time I see your name, I am reminded of the random text that Microsoft Word insert in a sample field.

That is hilarious, I forgot all about this. I went down a rabbit hole and it seems like this phrase is an offshoot of the Latin phrase "dolorem ipsum" which translates "pain itself". There are 2 common Latin phrases that it was used in.

1.   “Neque porro quisquam est, qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit, sed quia non numquam eius modi tempora incidunt ut labore et dolore magnam aliquam quaerat voluptatem.”

A 1914 English translation by Harris Rackham reads:

“Nor is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure.”

2.  “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet” translates to “Pain itself is very important to us”

 

More on the history I found:

Where does it come from?

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.
