Would you still buy a Prusa Mini+?

  • I haven't heard they break easy. What more can you share?

    • Fear of cheap Chinese EVs spurs automaker dash for affordable cars

    Jump

  • I agree it's a bad first step. I'd keep trying idea on the table, but I'd start by working with the European car manufacturers to create huge tariffs on those cars. Make it impossible for them to be sold at those prices in Western markets

    • YSK that SLS, an ingredient added to most commercial toothpastes, causes canker sores

    Jump

  • Interesting. The back of a tube of sensodyne in my medicine cabinet right now says that stannous fluoride may stain teeth. Hard to understand why a 2013 article would contradict a 2023 toothpaste warning.

    • Google announces April 2024 shutdown date for Google Podcasts

    Jump

  • I mean, before Gmail, I had a new email address every 2-3 years. I've had Gmail for what, almost 20 years? That's not what I'd define as "ephemeral."

    • Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake announced

    Jump

  • Hmmm. I own it but haven't ever played it. Are there bad controls or other bugs or quirks with the original... You know, something that would justify a remake?

    • The Cybertruck Is a Disappointment Even to Cybertruck Superfans / Looking at the specs alone, the car is delivering 30 percent less range than expected for 30 percent more money

    Jump

  • Anything in particular? I'm not great at understanding things that aren't said.

    • YSK that SLS, an ingredient added to most commercial toothpastes, causes canker sores

    Jump

  • Also stains your teeth.

    • Which video game did you bounce off of at first, but then tried again later for it to become one of your favorites of all time?

    Jump

  • Yes. Cyberpunk and I were oil and water when it was first released. The 2.0 patch made it a different game, and for some magical reason, I jive with it now. It's one of the best realized worlds. I just finished my first playthrough and I'll buy the DLC and play again soon!

    • Distros bad

    Jump

  • Oh man, is this true? Last time I daily drove Ubuntu was like 10 years ago. Ubuntu stood for the "it just works" of Linux. That's so sad they've fallen so far.

    I guess I'll wait until Valve rolls a desktop OS.

    • Hillary Clinton warns against Trump 2024 win: ‘Hitler was duly elected’

    Jump

  • Probably a desire for someone who is not part of the political machine.

    • Millennials Control Just 4.6 Percent of US Wealth

    Jump

  • I mean, I'd rather have my parents around in my life and my children's, than have their money.

    • New speaker of the House Mike Johnson once wrote in support of the criminalization of gay sex

    Jump

  • Yep. Calling it now: dude is gay.

    Which is fine, or would be fine, except for the hypocrisy.

    • What are in your opinion "essential" android apps that aren't as popular/talked about?

    Jump

  • "Sleep Timer" by CARECON GmbH. Its indispensable for adding a generic sleep timer to any audio or video that does not have such a feature.

    • What are in your opinion "essential" android apps that aren't as popular/talked about?

    Jump

  • Which one? I use "White Noise" by TMSOFT. It's UI is from 5-7 years ago, but it still works really well. It's mostly a background noise maker--and has lots of variety--rather than strictly white noise.

    • Just missing "Zero disposable income"

    Jump

  • I certainly have much better tools to handle my various hangups, but I have a lot more of them, too.

    • My sanity check over Philips Hue terms change (or tell me what I'm doing wrong)

    Jump

  • Well, yeah. Maybe that was part of the problem? I don't know.

    • My sanity check over Philips Hue terms change (or tell me what I'm doing wrong)

    Jump

  • I'm really glad it's working out for you. I have mine still all set up, using the hue hub, but I'm not sure I have a real compelling need to use anything HA offers, yet. It just sits there.

    • Just missing "Zero disposable income"

    Jump

  • Wait till over 40. You'll think your 30s were blissful.

    • What cheap tool/gadget do you use that greatly improves your daily life?

    Jump

  • What do you do that you carry special pliers every day?

    • My sanity check over Philips Hue terms change (or tell me what I'm doing wrong)

    Jump

  • I looked online and resetting the bulbs seemed to require a special dimmer switch or something? It doesn't appear to be possible with just the bulb.
