  • It's a tough balance, you don't want a whole page for each one. Maybe if there was a clear list of tags so it's easier to understand even what category they're talking about?

    For example:
    Penpot
    Design freedom meets open-source collaboration

    I really don't know what this product category even is. Is it for web layout? Is it a drawing program? Is it for CAD?

  • I'm not sure where these numbers are from, but my guess is that you mean the Observable Universe, which is just the part of the universe that we can see.

    We don't know how big the full universe is, it could be infinite with an infinite number of stars.

  • I went from a Creality printer to a Prusa Mk4s on the last black friday sale. What sold me was that as they make new machines, you can just buy a kit to upgrade to the next version, instead of needing to buy a whole new printer. They're also based in the EU, so even if they wanted to, they couldn't do anything too bad in regards to privacy.

    Doesn't matter tho, cause I won't turn on the cloud printing stuff, since I don't see any benefit. Everything can be done exactly the same way without requiring external services.

  • Just sounds like they're saying the "slippery slope" is false, but everything else stated was true.

    3d party accessories are being disabled, and you can only use network connectivity if you connect to the cloud. They'll have a solution for using Orca Slicer, but it still needs to phone home to work.

    Glad I stayed away from Bambu and went with a printer that doesn't need anything outside my network to use all the features I paid for.

  • Have you spoken to the business? Maybe they can offer a solution that you're not aware of.

    Maybe you can get a group text going with other patrons who will text the group about it? Maybe you can set up an RSS feed from their instagram account?

  • I don't HAVE to play the game. If they don't price it in a way that I'll buy it, then I just won't buy it.

    I've never bought a lot of games, heck I don't buy MOST games. I buy games that I'm interested in, when they're priced in a way that seems reasonable to me. There's plenty of companies (and individuals) out there who are selling me what I want, for the price I would pay for them.

  • I'll put it on my steam wishlist and buy it when it's $20 or less.

    I'm still waiting for Elden Ring and BG3, there's plenty of games to be played, I don't need to get it day one.

    I also get the advantage of not buying a buggy game that's half finished. It'll be cheaper and better if I wait, often with a bunch of the extra paid DLC included.

  • He posted pretty publicly after Jan 6th about how he grew up in the aftermath of Nazism.

    People can be complex, and as a conservative, he's certainly not on the correct side of every issue, but he's not afraid to speak against the rise of fascist ideology.

  • I get that it's not for everyone, but I use home assistant and prusalink to do everything the cloud prusa connect does.

    It doesn't leave my network, it's connected to physical Ethernet instead of WiFi, and I have zero outside connectivity requirements.

    The only drawback is that I have one extra step instead of sending directly within prusa slicer.

    Honestly, it's been a better overall experience than using the cloud service, cause it doesn't need to send any data over the Internet, just to download it back down to the printer.

  • Home made guns are legal (for the most part) as long as you are making them for yourself.

    Until very recently, making a decent gun took a lot of skill, and was pretty dangerous if something wasn't done correctly.

    Part of the issue with gun laws is that gun parts, by themselves, are fairly unregulated. You can buy a gun barrel off the Internet with zero paperwork. You can buy optics, grips, springs, pins, etc without any regulations.

    So you can print a gun frame, then buy everything else online, and it's all perfectly legal... In most states... If you don't resell, or do anything illegal with it.

    The main catch is, if you can legally buy a gun, you can legally make that same gun.

    If that gun would be illegal to buy, it's also illegal to make (full auto, suppressed, high capacity, etc.) but the biggest problem is, with the rise of CNC machines, and high quality 3d printing, how would anyone know?

  • The content creators should be shouting about RSS from the rooftops. The only people that lose out are social networks, and startups. It would be more difficult for a new person to get a foothold, but at least we decide what we want to read on our own.

  • Some context for those of you who are confused as to why this picture is impressive.

    https://www.universetoday.com/170146/astronaut-don-pettit-is-serious-he-rigged-up-astrophotography-gear-on-the-iss/

    The ISS rotates around the earth every 90 minutes, so before Don Pettit brought a custom built astrophotography rig up there this picture would have been impossible to take.

    It's weird that Eric Burger neglected to put this picture into perspective for people who aren't 100% up to date on their space news.
