Uranium 🟩

Yeah, this could be much shorter and not AI written, still I appreciate the idea of exploring technology fundamentals sometimes, just not the way it’s been implemented in this case

An interesting aspect of this is when trying to mover power over long distances AC becomes inefficient and High Voltage DC becomes the more efficient option.

Between 2-3% for HVDC vs 6-7% for AC systems when transmitting over 1000km.

Trip codes are I think what you’re taking about, not all boards had them enabled but they were a way of authenticating a user on the boards that did

Wow, this is absolutely amazing, do you have a build guide or something to reference if I wanted to build one?

Either AI written, or a bad way of phrasing this update from their kickstarter, which suggests that there’s a deadline for any unclaimed physical rewards from the kickstarter for Firmament, suggesting that they’ve still been shipping them up until now

Though the fact that they called it an upcoming title makes me think AI helped write the article.

1. Is this a quirk of the fediverse?

The community this has been posted in for me is Technology, not Privacy

2.And those people should also face scrutiny if they are making up potentially life ruining stuff such as accusing someone being a child murderer. The bit I’d want some context for, is whether this is a one off hallucination, or a consistent one that multiple seperate users could see if they asked about this person.

If it’s a one of hallucination, it’s not good, but nowhere near as bad as a consistent ‘hard baked’ hallucination.

I’m sure people said similar to the French Resistance regarding the Nazis/Vichy government…

This should really be the canary in the coal mine for just how bad things are going to get.

Never been too concerned with fumes at typical temperatures (higher temperatures required for PETG and the effect of those temps on PTFE bowdern tubes are a different box of frogs), but stringing getting pulled into the extruder fans scares the crap out of me as it basically becomes an ultra fine dust that builds up in the air and eventually settles waiting to be disturbed.

I’m genuinely unsure they’re a scab, I think they’re saying that we cannot expect these parasitic companies to have the workers best interests at heart, and as such strong workers rights should be enshrined in law and enforced.

I could be misunderstanding them though of course.

Silly suggestion for testing how loud it is externally; put the headphones on your leg/thigh and test them, it should be a reasonable approximation of your head.

Also forgive my ignorance, but why are you printing this as straight pieces that require gluing as opposed to printing it as a solid circle?

If you ever printed a 2nd iteration, you could created a space for an oring to sit for each dart so it gets lightly held in place by friction

Ok, not to pile on, but what the heck do you mean by “pantheon” in this context?

And do you speak/use any other languages that have led you to using this unique form of capitalisation?

Tbh if they didn’t learn from last time (vita) it deserves to fail if they’re not including a usable microSD card slot. We’re at a point where the cat is out of the bag even for the average consumer, when games can be 100GB+, noone will buy it if they screw about with being an overpriced console + overpriced games. The console needs to be affordable, with affordable memory and then they’ll make their profit from the games.

Huh, same here, that’s odd

Are you meaning because people are excited about “fusion” being a possible future energy source, whereas when they here “nuclear” their minds immediately go to weapons and fission accidents and pollution?

You aren’t wrong, but as someone who managed to screw up and damaged the copper traces when trying to resolder an old mini-usb back onto my old keyboard; you do really need to have a good understanding and a lot of practice with SMDs and temperature control.

I went from a less than 50% success ratio when resoldering SMD LEDs to about 95% success after I bought a £20 mini-heatgun with a narrow (5mm) nozzle

+1 for prusa if you want to spend more and get something that just works with no fuss, if you’re wanting to go cheap&cheerful an Ender 3 will be a good option as well if you don’t mind the occasional bit of tinkering for about half the price, as it’s probably one of the most supported printers by the community and newer ones come with Auto bed leveling and half of the fancy stuff you had to add on back in the day.

I’d spend any money saved building/buying an enclosure and something to run octoprint with (Raspberry pi or a spare android phone)

To add, it’s often worth investing in a mini heatgun for desoldering/resoldering, typically it’s near impossible to resolder the pins by hand as they are so fine.

Same with many other surface mount components

They don’t necessarily require a starter explosive, certain types do of course. It’s more about overcoming the initial energy required, for example the arc from an electric arc lighter could probably overcome that requirement in a lot of scenarios.
