  Yep I had a couple aluminum ones, the 90 degree walls by the contacts would always bend inward to make a trapezoid ship on the connector instead of a rectangle and they sucked to try to bend back every time

  Fair enough! Thanks for the data!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I benchmarked 6 different metal USB sticks⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Much appreciated!

  With no clear winner in terms of performance, which one do you think has the most durable material? I have been using a Corsair Voyager for years, which I think has an aluminum shell, and it very quickly bent inward on the side that doesn’t have the contacts, usually I need to put a key or some other metal thing into the USB slot of the drive to re-flatten it before it can be plugged in.

  Remember though that these are the same engineers who put the Magic Mouse charging port on the bottom, making the mouse unusable while you charged it

  And I just found this saying they are adding (or have added?) official support to Rider

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WebStorm and Rider Are Now Free for Non-Commercial Use⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think this plugin that I was looking at adds GDScript language support for almost all of them

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WebStorm and Rider Are Now Free for Non-Commercial Use⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was really impressed with Rider when I tired it out with Unity development, I’d love to use it, but I’ve switched to Godot and GDScript

  I use IntelliJ and CLion daily at work, JetBrians makes some awesome IDEs

  I loved the idea of this extension and used it for a few months, but ended up disabling it because it made YouTube take significantly longer to load a page on my daily laptop, which admittedly is pretty old.

  Brittleness might be a concern, it will be for a costume piece

  Thank you!

  Used Airalo in the EU last year, only complaint was it took a few hours for the data to work reliably, but it was 100% after that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Relative Humidity do you keep for your PLA and how do you achieve that.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I live in a really dry climate, so I don’t really notice issues unless I have a spool out on the printer for months, and even then dust is more of an issue than humidity.

  To be safe, I bought a storage bin with a gasket on the lid that I store all of my other spools in, and that has seemed to work great.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Adobe faces big fines from FTC over difficult subscription cancellation⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I use Photopea all the time, my only complaint is I wish they had a lifetime license to get rid of that side bar ad, the only options are all subscriptions/monthly.

  Ad block works to block the ad, but I haven’t found a way to get that screen space back.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple announces that RCS support is coming to iPhone next year⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep, they’ll definitely stick to the blue green system that already exists, threads with greens will just be improved from what they were/currently are

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Am I building a fire hazard?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I saw someone else also suggest it, you could do an automatic fire extinguisher.

  This one dispenses after 3-5 seconds of direct flame contact, others will be different.

  I have seen some simple solder equipment and supplies at Home Depot and Lowe’s in the last year, usually with the other electrical wiring and equipment. Of course, you still have to go out to a store and hope that they have something, because I have found both to have unreliable in stock information, but it can’t hurt if you need something same day.

  I got an email advertising a learn unity bundle from them this morning, I don’t think they care lol
