  • Rumor has it it’ll be in the next Mortal Kombat. My cousin‘s friends uncle works for the company and told me it’s true.

  • If she’d tolerate it some bangles on her paws would complete the look

  • Her name is Vin but her posture screams Lord Ruler

  • It just showed up, I’ve updated it and the issue is resolved.

    Thank you!

  • I’ll check it as soon as it shows in my region. Thank you again

  • It is ios18.

    I should have noted that and to be honest I should have associated the iOS update along with the app data.

    Thanks Eric

  • Sounds like they’re running their own LLM instance on googles cloud infrastructure vs using something like OpenAI via API.

    As web dev parlance it makes sense but for marketing it is definitely confusing and they should do better.

  • What’s that noise? I’m sure I heard something.

    -Last recorded words of Rodney Jenkins before he was attacked by Howard the Duck

  • The Chaser by John Collier… that ending … still gives me chills

  • Tnut should do the trick. If not you could use the same bolt all the way through for the tensioner but that might be a pain to line up right.

  • I think you misunderstand.

    Here’s an example. It has the math but doesn’t require that you “know” how to work the formulas or equations.

    Because he’s doesn’t require that you know the math. He shows it, explains it, and visualizes the concept.

    Quantum Mechanics 1b - Birth of the Quantum II

    I can’t remember which video it was but in one he explains about how Einstein was shown that the Heisenberg uncertainty principle was related to relativity in a series of letters. At which point Einstein conceded the point.

    All this was done showing the equation… and then shifting the pieces around and explaining what they were. Until at the end what was left.. was e=mc^2.

    Edit: It was this video but I misremembered. It uses Einsteins equations to prove the uncertainty principle

    Quantum Mechanics 3b - Probability and Uncertainty II

    My point isn’t that the math isn’t there. It’s just that you’re not dropped into a video with here’s a formula… solve it and you’ll see why XYZ is true. The equations themselves are explained, visualized, etc.

    If there’s a concept such as bell curves he shows that without requiring you do the numbers by showing how random motion will lead to certain probabilities over others.

    Check this out

    Quantum Mechanics 1a - Birth of the Quantum I

    And then compare to this next episode in the series

    Quantum Mechanics 1b - Birth of the Quantum II

    And this later one. Where he gets more and more into the mathematics. But you’re not just thrown into the deepend at the start

    Quantum Mechanics 5a - Schrödinger Equation I

  • It’s not at all. I’m saying it was good then and it is now.

    It’s gotten heavier and more technical but that’s because as it goes on you learn and it gets deeper. And yet they still find a way to make it accessible even though they’re obviously still only scratching the surface.

    As a counter point via science is really good but tries to avoid the deep math as much as possible while explaining the concepts behind it. All the while it’s been pure science and less of the popular topic as a way to introduce the science.

  • It’s still fantastic. But the tone was different.

    They pulled us in with the quirky, and tricked us into learning about space time curvature, spin, Higgs fields and tensors.

    The sly dogs.

  • Some kind of activity tracking like a Fitbit right?

    You could actually see the internal layout of the base from the paths the thing recorded via GPS points.

  • If I recall correctly that hole goes all the way through the extrusion.

    Worst case you can use a bolt and nut.

  • And if it’s not loud enough put it in a small metal pan or bowl, and place that inside a partially opened dresser drawer. Amplifies it quite a bit in addition to your suggestion to physically get up to turn it off.

  • Crazy Tuesday… the day we eat at Crazy Joes Taco Palace.

  • Best upgrades for me was the following in order of overall impact

    Klipper
    BTT Skr mini e3v3 board
    Silicon bed spacers
    Klackender mod by KevinAkaSam
    G10 build plate
    Orbiter extruder and dragonfly hotend for direct drive
    Belted Z mod by KevinAkaSam

    More recent EBB36 canbus for the tool head mainly because it frees up some ports on the control board for other things like my Nevermore.

    For overall quality and reliability the following have the biggest impact.

    Ensuring the physical frame is as square as possible. As well as adjusting and shimming things such as folded aluminum foil under the Z extrusions to get them square with the base.

    The board and Klipper are huge since it makes it easier to use the klack probe (Klicky for ender) and the silicone spacers allow me to dial in the screws with adjust_screws.

    And skew correction because my X gantry is twisted (tested that on granite counter top) and after I’ve done everything else to ensure it’s physically right i still had to work around some of it with software.

    Now I can just fire it up and print PLA, ABS (it’s in a grow tent enclosure), PETG and TPU without any issue.

    The g10 plate works great with all of them, Klipper can compensate for any warping, build offset as long as the screws are properly adjusted (which I test every couple of months or after I’ve had a print that really didn’t want to come off.

    I’m building a trident myself right now and I’m using the “Frankender” to do it with really great quality results.

  • Thanks for the suggestions. I’ll check them out.
