- Comment on Best printable puzzles to 3d print? 1 day ago:
Any puzzle made by Oskar van Deventer. He’s got a ton of them, they’re all free, and he posts YouTube videos about them all
- Comment on Apple Readies Its Biggest Push Into Health Yet With New AI Doctor. 4 days ago:
I’ve heard the song and dance from all the tech companies at this point. Google and Microsoft both offered a package that promised things like chart portability and whatnot. Each was shut down a couple years later, and charts and records remain as locked down as ever

- Comment on The Enshittification of 3D Printers – Are We Losing What Made Them Great? 1 week ago:
Fwiw the open source scene literally got started because of a printer
- Comment on The Enshittification of 3D Printers – Are We Losing What Made Them Great? 1 week ago:
It’s giving me serious pause when looking at things like the new Bambu printer
I really like my x1c, but I haven’t upgraded it’s firmware yet, and probably never will, because the local features are just too good. I know I can replace a lot of the bambu cloud features with octoanywhere, but I shouldn’t have to

Data that Mozilla now happily collects themselves
- Comment on A Foot Pedal To Supplement Your Keyboard 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been using one for years. It gets some use. Not a ton, but some. Most common use is as media keys or as the modifiers. Oh and escape in vim
- Comment on RP2350 now available to buy: a high-performance, secure microcontroller for your next project 2 weeks ago:
As long as the RPi foundation keeps messing around with their supplies, reserving the lions share for “corporate” customers, I’ll stick to espressif devices. I can get a bag of them for the cost of one of these
- Comment on Kindle Is Making It Harder to Switch to Rival eReader Brands. 1 month ago:
Already been doing this, but I think this will finally light the fire under my ass to move to a boox device for all my reading I’ve got the big boox, which I use for sheet music, and quite like it, so the smaller ones are no brainers
- Comment on Reddit plans to lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says | Reddit executives also discussed how they might introduce more ads into the social media platform 1 month ago:
I almost wish Elon would buy it, so he can “manage” it like he did Twitter
- Comment on Introducing Privacy Pass authentication for Kagi Search | Kagi Blog 1 month ago:
Sweet. Time to enable this right away. Been using privacy pass for a while now, and quite like it. Same can be said for kagi

Funny, I find the BBC unable to accurately convey the news
- Comment on You Can’t Post Your Way Out of Fascism | Authoritarians and tech CEOs now share the same goal: to keep us locked in an eternal doomscroll instead of organizing against them 1 month ago:
They’ve been censorious for over a decade. It’s just the old target was “acceptable” to most denizens of reddit and similar social media. Now that the censors are expanding their reach, we see umbrage? Come on now.
- Comment on Co-op campaigns are a rarity these days, and that should change 1 month ago:
Gears 5 is still a tour de force of how to do a modern game. It’s got cosmetics, customization, an acceptable (but not great) story, decent PvP, and imo the absolute best PvE. Nothing has managed to dethrone horde in 5+ years
- Comment on Co-op campaigns are a rarity these days, and that should change 1 month ago:
I’d still say the Gears franchise owns the shooter coop throne. Every game in the series supports at least 2 player, with 3 & judgement being 4 player, and 5 being 3 player. And they go out of their way to make coop different than regular campaigns too; there are several points, usually one in each level, where you have to split up

What do you think the closed beta was for? It was so they can get in and get on the moderator roster
- Comment on Making a Blocklist to Remove Spam from Search Engines 1 month ago:
Very large part of why I moved away to kagi. It just works.
Additionally, it’s system of weighting, instead of just a binary block, is very useful. Take fandom wikis for example. They’re awful, yes, but sometimes they’re the only result for a topic, and will do if needed. With a binary block list, you either see them or you don’t. With the weighted system, you can downrank them, so if better results show up, they appear higher in the listing than the downranked ones

But certainly not coincidental
