Oh man, when they get native mobile apps, I’m looking to switch my Mattermost server to Fluxer. I’ve had good luck with Mattermost, but its not truly OSS and its been moving features over to paid enterprise accounts so the time is soon.

This really depends on Keyfob range. My current cars tend to be around 50ft, though i haven’t tested it tons past that. Prior to these, I had a Mazda Protégé5 that I could lock/unlock from 300’+ with line of sight. Thats more than enough to start/cool/heat/etc without actually leaving the house.
Honestly, even 50ft is probably fine. Only time I can think of wanting more would be leaving a large venue and wanting it heated/cooled in the parking garage before I got there… but I’d be worried about it being stolen while running at that point.

Reminds me of my favorite command line utility.


Not to excuse that POS, but more on how we got here: You have a product that only makes money when people actively use it. How do you increase your ROI? Make people want to use it and want to use it longer. Do that by making it more interesting, more relevant, more stimulating and appear bottomless so people can use it as long as possible.
Addiction for EVERYONE is the only way FB continues to increase revenue. We just single out Children because they are most easily influenced and impacted.


FWIW: I read this title as “they are just refunding everyone that bought it across the board with no action required from purchasers” which is far more shocking than the article.
The article: A few people said they didn’t like it, thought the quality was worse, asked for a refund and got it. So, if you own it and agree, give that a shot.


What would be the benefit of designing them so the nozzle isn’t replaceable? There are some filaments (i.e. carbon fibre) that are super rough on nozzles and require regular maintenance/replacement.


At the moment, most of that “money” is just stock in the other company. And the type of RAM and “GPU”'s being manufactured are not ones that normal consumers will use. They’re very specialized for AI en masse.
Another thing around that is that the major manufacturers being leveraged for that gear have stated that they are not increasing production in the near future because of this. It seems they’re mostly in a “wait and see, it might just be a bubble” mode as scale up takes a lot of time and only pays off with continued demand over a long period of time.
I’d love if it was going to be flooding the market with cheaper tech, but thats not been shown to be the case. And it’s really not worth the environmental impact in either case.


In the mean time they’re soaking up all the RAM, SSD and silicon processing which makes basically everything with any of those cost a lot more (like the RAM I bought for $99, 4 yrs ago thats now $560). Not to mention the power requirements and costs being passed on to the consumers that don’t want it anyway.
They’re also screwing up the environment in ways it won’t recover from.
I feel like hearing more kids dying with ass cancer stories and heart disease deaths and people dying from preventable diseases stories would probably shift people away from focusing just on guns and homicide and maybe actually cause people to care about science and solving those other things.
Not that those are good to not focus on, just that there’s already an ongoing anti vs pro gun conversation going and at least if we talk about something else that’s proportional causing deaths… well, I doubt there are many “pro-cancer” people out there (but I know it’s non-zero).
I guess I just want some positive momentum on something at this point.


That wave looks like a tsunami…
Guessing it’s a vase with a flare top.


I’ve always bought up this sort of thing; but I’ve had to rethink it… not thar its wrong, but the executive orders that this (and many other presidents) sign which starts massive changes that don’t go through Congress completely short circuit the process. Even if they eventually get overturned, it’s typically way too late to go back to what was. It’s a short cut to get things done that isn’t popular and wouldn’t have passed as a bill.
Much like destroying the east wing, you can’t ever get things back you lost. People lose jobs, land gets torn up, foreign trust gets destroyed… it so much easier to sign an executive order, make a change that destroys that which took decades to build and then have it overturned. Then you say “well, congress has that power not the president” but it’s too late.
This is sad to hear. I have an Ender 3 Pro that has been nothing short of a workhouse for 6.5 years now. I’ve upgraded a few parts here and there as thats kinda the fun. Dual Z motors 2 yrs after, upgraded the hot end to a direct extrusion one a year or so after that so I could print TPU. Just Got the silent motherboard about a year ago. Solid as a rock. A friend got the CR-10 shortly after, same luck.
With all the issues and sketchy closed source madness Prusa and Bamboo are having, i was tempted to upgrade to a much larger Creality unit, but I guess I’ll rethink or wait on that now.
The interest rate on a mortgage when I was 3 was literally 16%. Glad thats over… course the price of the house just went up to make up the difference.


While you’re probably right about the younger generation, there’s currently a huge movement away from cable and a million online streaming services and back to OTA. It’s why the antenna I bought 15 yrs ago now costs 5x what it did then.
My wife and I dropped cable 13yrs ago now and between the OTA, free streaming like Twitch and YouTube, and such, and buying physical BluRays we haven’t missed it.


Lets be honest, going to the arena sucks. Especially for a game like football where you will almost certainly be crazy far away from any action. I’ve gone to a few and outside the “it was cool to say you were there” part, I’d rather just watch it on TV. Not even taking the cost into account.
Bikes need to stop for red lights and stop signs. It’s not envy… I’ve seen cars get T-boned after running a red light, you will not survive that on a bike.
I don’t care if you share the road, as long as you follow the rules. If you switch to a path , be aware of pedestrians just like cars have to be aware of bikes. Safety first.
More importantly, its on GOG, all DRM free.
