The issue is not so much humidity as it’s micro cracks. You can try annealing the PLA in an oven. Try it repeatedly, increasing the temperature by 5°C each time. Should be fine at the latest at 70-75°C, but this might also change the dimensions of the filament, making it unusable.
But filament is so cheap that it’s likely not worth the time and the electricity to try to fix small left-overs.
Well, if this idea is so glorious, why is none of the large array of water harvesting devices that pop up multiple times a year ever deployed at scale?
Easy answer: because they are all marketing bullshit that doesn’t solve the actual problem and instead only exists to part investors from their cash.
But when it’s really humid, there’s usually much better ways of getting water.
At least he didn’t promise that the ride brings you to a better place.
They also have very few cars. There’s like 10 or so of these robotaxis. If you grab 10 human taxi drivers and follow them around for a few months, you’d also expect them to have on average 0 accidents.
No, the / has nothing to do with xml. It’s a fake IRC command.
They were all in the style of /commandname.
You know, people tend to use sarcasm more in chats than in XML documents.
What does a 64-bit system and 4GB RAM have to do with using 64bit timestamps?
32bit systems can use 64bit values without issue. In fact, even an 8bit system can handle 256bit values or even longer ones without issue.
The bittiness of a CPU and its address space have nothing to do with the length of usable data unless you end up with data longer than the RAM volume (and even then there’s swap).
That’s the thing though: It was well-prepared and due to that there was no big issue.
2038 is the same: very well prepared and thus it will not be a big issue.
Of course, if ignored, both would be very problematic, but that’s not the point.
And it’s not only a person-thing alone, but also a thing-thing. For example, I love modifying my printer or my phone (I designed and built a keyboard attachment for my phone). But I want my 2D printer to just work. And my car as well, same as my dishwasher, my laundry machine and my stove.
Infill doesn’t really improve strenght that much, perimeters work far better.
But any 3D printed object that has that much space for more infil/perimeters is already clunky.
Compare a benchy to an average toy figurine. The benchy is super clunky compared to most non-toddler toys my kids have.
Mine is a Yihua 959D-II. It works really well for my needs, but it’s not like a professional endorsement. I’m just a tinkerer who bought the best-rated cheap thing from Amazon.
That is not wrong. But interpreting “dark” as “evil” is just wrong in this context.
I have read the article, and I got your point before, and I still think that it’s totally moot and besides the point.
If they had been two total randos, say Max the car repair man cheating with Mandy the receptionist, then nobody would have even tried to recognize them. Not with social media, not with facial recognition not with anything else.
And even if Peter, the coworker of Max and Mandy would have recognized them, he’d maybe have told their partners, or he might have made fun of them at work, but that’s it. Because these people don’t matter.
To get back to your example: Somebody took a picture of you. Ok. Now what? Did that picture go viral on social media? Did that picture make it into international news? No. Because you don’t matter.
And you said it yourself:
Shit, my workplace couldn’t even identify the people who walked in the front door and stole stuff and walked out. The police could see their faces clearly in the security footage, but they weren’t from around here and no one knew who they were.
We should bring back paying to read a newspaper, magazine, (pc-magazine :P)
You are probably not wrong, and we should be paying for a lot more things, but the genie is out of the bottle for many things here and it’s difficult to roll that back.
For example, newspaper reading habits have changed a lot. Before the internet, you’d usually stick with one newspaper and that’s it. Maybe two if you have too much money. You buy your newspaper and you read it front to back, probably even the topics you don’t particularly care about.
Now it’s often the other way round. Most people read news from quite a few sources (or often just follow links on social media and don’t really even care for the publisher), but they don’t read their news from virtual cover to virtual cover. Instead, they stick to the topics they care for, or maybe even read about the same thing in multiple publications, comparing what they have to say about it.
For this kind of newspaper reading, current forms of monetarisation don’t really work. Most newspapers only offer subscriptions to the whole newspaper, often in the range of €5-15 per month. So if I were to pay for the ~20 newspapers that I read news from at least semi-frequently, that’s €200-600 per month. No way I can or want to afford that.
Some allow you to pay per article, but that is usually pretty expensive too (€1-3 per article) and also I need to register to every single newspaper. That’s not great either.
What I’d really like to see would be a industry-wide subscription. For example, I pay €10 per month and that allows me to read 100 articles per month across all newspapers. That would be really nice.
“dark” as in “not visible”. Adblock users can’t be tracked (or at least not as easily), hence they are not visible to the ad companies. “Dark”, in this instance, is not a derogatory term.
“Brutal” is, though. So I totally agree with you there. Ads are the brutal thing nowadays.
See it, sure. But as a society we used to have an expectation of anonymity, for better or worse.
That’s the case if you are some unimportant rando, yes.
But these two people we are talking about are very public figures due to their jobs, and they are compensated very well for this. As a public figure you can’t have the expectation of anonymity. That just comes with the territory.
Every time JK Rowling lets out an anti-trans fart, the whole internet is up in arms. When my transphobe uncle does the same, nobody cares. Because one of them is a public figure and the other one is not.
The main problem I see here is that people still don’t seem to understand what “public” means.
That applies to doing shit in public, but also posting shit publically.
If you do something in the open, expect that people will see it.
This.
3D printers are now not more expensive or harder to use than 2D printers, and they are becoming quite common.
Same as you wouldn’t just start up a copy shop just because you own an HP inkjet printer, just owning a random 3D printer doesn’t really qualify you for running a 3D print shop.
Especially considering that warranty is usually region-locked. You usually can’t claim warranty from outside of the country where you bought it.
So if your friend in France has to claim warranty, they’d have to first ship it to Canada so that someone else (e.g. you) can do the warranty claim for them.
OpenAI is more efficient. Give a man a blanket and he will be warm for a winter. Give the world CO2 and there will be no winter.
