Opinions: What is a movie you genuinely like, that is rated below 60% on rotten tomatoes?

  • 50 First Dates was lovely.

  • It's below 60%? That's a travesty!

  • Frank is such an idiot. Why did we ever let them onto this team?

    • A question regarding the picking of a printer that fits my use case.

    Jump

  • It sounds like you want to print things, not tinker with a 3D printer. In that case, get a Prusa. You can make Enders and other cheap clones work great, but how much time do you want to spend tinkering and hunting down answers? What is your time worth?

    • Light-based “LiFi” is stunningly fast, notably fragile—and now standardized

  • Oy definitely, I can see a box that is a combo LiFi/WiFi access point with a single ethernet/fiber optic cable running to it providing the best network available for each device becoming a standard ceiling fixture in offices and tech forward homes.

  • Here’s the first two scenarios that come to mind, if/when the price becomes reasonable.

    1. In a typical cube farm, you could string up a very small number of these in the drop ceiling and have Ethernet level speeds without having to run cables to every single desk. It should be a much easier install.
    2. At home, I could run an drop for these through my attic to the one or two rooms where I use a lot of bandwidth, eg my home office and living room. Again, an easier install than running Ethernet through the ceiling, down the walls and to every piece of equipment in those rooms.

    For most people I’m not sure if it would be worth it, but I could certainly see it in those niches.

  • Pretty much. I wouldn’t worry too much about interference from other light sources, as they are likely to be basically steady and not modulating.

  • Theoretical max for Wi-Fi in the 60GHz spectrum in 7G/s. Theoretical max for Li-Fi is 228G/s. Of course, no one is hitting those maxes now but in general Li-Fi is about 10x faster in the real world, or at least is you have the right prototype equipment.

    Physics reason- LiFi uses shorter wavelengths so can switch faster.

  • I love it, though I haven't tried using it as a daily driver in a long time. I should give it a whirl!

  • BeOS was the best desktop OS of its day, and from an end user POV still has features that I miss every day.
