I’m sure 80 to 90 percent would vote trump again without giving it a second thought. I’m sure 99 percent of them will vote for whatever GOP candidate is put forward regardless - that is if we ever get to vote again …

The cathedral and the bizarre by ESR is a must read. http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/

Way way way back in the late 90s I visited slashdot multiple times a day. I know it’s still around but it is nothing like the commander taco days

I think I read about it way back then on slashdot …

I remember he also had a “stinky feet” series of experiments until he has on the verge of developing cellulitis or something…

Now I feel old.

Granted the forms of mfa available without a hardware key are far from perfect. But they are better then no extra authentication method.

A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week

As have I… But it’s so dang handy. From what I know there is no alternative that is quite as good

jdupes: it’s great software. The author left GitHub not because of Microsoft, but because he refused to implement 2fa on his account, which GitHub made mandatory.

That is a lot of effort to say that you don’t care…

Hack the planet!

Underrated comment.

Exactly. I don’t know the expected life span of 3m 468mp but apparently I exceeded it in my environment and duty cycle. I’m still working on getting the residue off of the bed however, and I can say that where it stuck, and did not fail, it did an excellent job, even pulling off bits of silicone with the glue.

I have had it since probably 2018? It was one of the original x5sa kits. Honestly it has been a good platform to learn off of

Custom. It started life as a tronxy x5sa-400 but I think only 2 steppers and the frame are original still. I changed the bed to a 16"² *3/8 thick aluminum tool plate about 5 years ago. It always worked well for me. Unfortunately the silicone mat I used doesn’t seem to be made any more. I’m going to try one meant for a creality cr10 S4. I may have to re-machine the mounting holes for the thru holes on the mat tho.

The best advice I got was to periodically delete your current account and create a new one. Then remove any association you have with the old account: history, password managers, etc. Yes, that accounts comments may live on for ever in some archive, but removing your association with it goes a long way towards plausible deniability. If your super paranoid only access Lemmy through tor going forward.

Should be chick peas/garbanzo. It’s called aquafaba and can be used as a replacement for egg whites in various alcoholic beverages.

It’s down because the source code was dumped and all the vulnerabilities were exposed. It’s incredibly old software that hasn’t been maintained and it’s doubtful there is anyone to fix it.

I don’t know. I’ve use this method several times and I’ve never had a problem. I probably should have specified that I’m in the states so 450° f versus 200 or 210° c that your printer runs at isn’t a huge difference. Sure. You run the risk of some fumes, but your printer is already belting the plastic. In that temperature. You need to go a lot hotter than 400° in order to set it on fire. It’s a lot safer than using a blowtorch

put them on a sheet of aluminum foil and put them on a cookie tray in your oven. set the oven to 450 degrees and bake it for a half hour plus. everything should melt out of it. you could even suspend it with a rolled up piece of foil under it. depending on the wires your thermistor may suffer but the heating element should be fine. tho, your thermistor probably will be okay too as it looks like it has silicone covering the wire.

I really like the orbiter 2.5. it’s not as light as the nimble but it is still tiny. I like that it is open source and they really have thought to put a bunch of engineering in to the gear workings instead of just using clone bonditech gears. It cost, like, 48 USD to get from AliExpress and is definitely high quality.

Thh Hero Me mount seamed like a good choice as well. It was a huge pain in the a$$ to assemble tho, not that I am complaining. The way it mounts to the carriage means you can’t just assemble and mount (at least with my old tronxy carriage plate). The included adapter design that comes in the file package didn’t quite work correctly and I didn’t realize that until I was all disassembled. There is a magnet mount version that would probably have been a better option. I’ll probably print one to have as a spare if I ever need to disassemble the mount. Other then the mounting tho I really like the design and thought that went into it by mediaman.
