  • Well, can't argue with the price lol.

    At least when the port finishes failing they can be replaced by most electronics repair shops for not too expensive. So you won't be out a camera.

  • Schrödinger's Quantum Theory of Technical Prowess. The user is both infinitely capable and infinitely stupid until observed, in which case the system collapses into only the stupid state.

  • Glad you got it figured out!

    And now you know why MiniHDMI is the worst connector ever built and needs to die a firey, painful death. The slightest bump ruins the socket.

  • Why's it always end up being fucking ads?

    I hate late stage capitalism. I want off Mr. Bones' Wild Ride.

  • tough times

    Jump
  • As long as it was in the toilet and not in your pants, you're coming out ahead.

  • Pretty much. You can either point it at the channel OR use a link to their Videos playlist (the playlist you get when hitting "play all"). I usually use the playlist to be consistent.

  • "Gunk" is probably a combination of algae sludge plus any captured lint from the ventilation. Not much to do about the algae other than blast it with a disinfectant like bleach once in a while.

    How's the incoming air filtration into the unit? Is it sealed reasonably well at the filter?

  • mini HDMI

    The worst connector ever made. Possibly just broke.

    Get a mini to normal hdmi cord if you're not already using one and test the camera output on a TV or monitor

  • I agree that its a fantastic resource. But the only times that book gets opened is when I'm about to make my brain hurt bigly and it makes me regret choosing mechanical eng just a liiiiiitle bit.

  • Shigley's Mechanical Engineering Design 10th edition

    Sigh.... kind of wish it wasn't.

  • Effective January 1st, 2024, every indie game developing studio will be dropping Unity like a hot potato.

  • ahhh, TPU is addictive isn't it. So squishy and flexy. I've even made gaskets out of it for an ATV- not good ones, because it fails to seal when too cold, but gaskets that still work nonetheless.

  • This is why internet download manager (and other, similar download manager softwares) were originally created. Download managers track the amount of a file you've downloaded and will repeatedly retry when interrupted without restarting from zero.

    Getting Warez in the pre-P2P era meant grabbing bits and pieces over a glacial ISDN or 33.6k modem line (if you were lucky- some of us bastards got 28.8k, or even 14.4k...) Everything was "direct download". You had to use a download manager for anything larger than 30 megabytes because the chances of your line being interrupted were very very high, either by other phone users or by your ISP booting you off because you looked like a zombie modem being connected for 24 hours straight.

    They still have their place. Try something open source like JDownloader. Or just pirate the pro version of IDM.

  • No, I meant the squatty potty people end up popping all over the place to mention how good they are. There was a lot of it on Reddit especially, back when they were new.

    Now they've all been replaced by people expounding on the pleasures of bidets...

  • Cracking often includes blocking all networking features of a game to kill any phone-home license checking, so it's likely that Unity will not know cracked games are getting installed. But it is not guaranteed.

    More likely every game dev save for a few big developers (who we don't give a shit about) is going to drop this radioactive business model like a hot plutonium potato and it will become a non-issue.

  • Yeah, the yt-dlp fork is still actively maintained and has very nice results, glad you found it.

  • Fuck, I forgot what a cult following those weird things have.

  • That's exactly how I know. Made some very nice interior car parts and experimented with the 3 plastics. PLA failed in a day, PETG made it a week before it sagged too much to be usable, but ABS is still going.

  • Well at least it's recyclable.
