I really like the bambulabs solution of repurposing the printer’s own stepper motor to cut the filament. Basically just a push-lever connected to the cutter on the print head. To cut the filament, the print head moves off to one side and bumps the lever against the edge of the printer.

Thought this was unix surrealism for a second

Not at the rate I’m pooping

Nice!!

Tailscale is good because it never breaks if your ISP switches your home IP on you. The only downside is that some public or corporate wifi networks will block the official Tailscale servers

A lot of well-meaning commenters are missing the obvious solution here: Freeze yourself for one year.

For those wondering: The energy source is an alternating external electric field

I’ll trade you two hand birds for it

lmao very curious to see what steam thinks of my unnatural unholy abomination of a setup

“Today I was on the train , and a really smelly person shat their pants while making intense eye contact with me. They looked… smug? It was very scary”

I wonder if anyone’s ever made a fake conversion camp that just lets kids be themselves and hang out.

Depending on your arm length and the shape of your car’s door, you can rest your door-side elbow on the door, making the top of the steering wheel a natural place to hold

That hyphen is straining under the weight of those words

Petition to name the inevitable fork of this “SystemFree”

Tbf: If I were like at the back of the line, and I’d already seen Julius get stabbed 23 times, I feel like I just wouldn’t feel the need to chip in at that point

Have you tried it though?

Don’t throw these stones until you’ve tried using a steam deck as a work computer

Why does systemd need to verify age?

He would have changed his opinion on the spot, just like the rest of them.

Okay so ethics debate aside… it just looks bad? If they get this to work in real time, that’s technologically impressive, but it literally just looks like a “slop filter”.

• Overtuned contrast
• Overuse of back lighting
• Too many shiny and wet surfaces
• And the worst of all: faces get “yassified” to look like entirely different people - looking more like overly-edited supermodel photos than real people

Yes: hair and skin are notoriously difficult to render well in real time… but if you’re running a model like this, you can probably afford to calculate the SSS properly lol

Or idk. Maybe only run the slop filter on skin and hair. RTGI is already pretty much perfect these days if you do it right
