Sounds like it’s time to turn my phone into a car already.

This whole post is a joke about Moon Nazis! Is it?
- Comment on Microsoft won't fix Windows 0x80070643 errors, manual fix required 1 month ago:
In this case I’m happy I always installed Windows without RE partition. Still works fine and you can still uninstall updates. Broken system files can still be replaced by a fresh pull from Windows Update.
- Comment on Microsoft won't fix Windows 0x80070643 errors, manual fix required 1 month ago:
A recovery environment is overrated under Windows. Just backup your files and reinstall from scratch.
- Comment on AI will reduce workforce, say 41% of execs in a survey 2 months ago:
I predict a huge demand of workforce in five years, when they finally realized AI doesn’t drive innovation, but recycles old ideas over and over.

You did some decent engineering on a cheap disposable pen. I hope it was worth the effort.
- Comment on So glad I'm ditching these fucking idiots 4 months ago:
Almost the same situation here. However, my first designs in freeCAD had lots of errors and I experienced lots of crashes and bugs. Didn’t really get into it.
My tool of choice is now OpenSCAD. It does exactly what you are designing - not more, not less.
- Comment on Voron 2.4R2 vs. Trident 4 months ago:
Agreed. I’m not a V2 owner, but I built a Trident. The V2 is a little overhyped, IMHO.
In the end, it’s just a matter of your own personal taste though. If you want a highly aesthetic printer with complex mechanics, go for the V2. If you like to keep it simpler without sacrificing much, go with the Trident.
If you are fine with a smaller device, the V0 may be the right choice. You could reinforce the frame and do a few other mods to achieve insane (yet experimental) print speeds. 1500 mm/s is doable.
- Comment on Voron 2.4R2 vs. Trident 4 months ago:
In theory, the V2 can print a little faster, due to the low center of gravity on the first layers.
However, the fixed gantry height on the Trident makes it possible to install a fixed part cooling, a lighter print head and go even faster.
- Comment on IBM scraps rewards program for staff inventions, wipes away cash points | Big Blue staffers aren’t pleased to lose out on potential bonuses 5 months ago:
Bigger companies are forced to do such programmes. I was working on a software tool for managing these ideas.
The problem I see here, is the software was boring, the project was boring and the users in charge are bored, too. There is hardly anyone who takes the process serious.
I’m not surprised, by IBM’s decision. However, I think they waste a lot of potential by not listening properly to their employers.
- Comment on Broadcom ditches VMware Cloud Service Providers - 'How can they cancel a major program affecting hundreds, perhaps thousands of customers, with zero notice?' 5 months ago:
And that’s why I prefer KVM, even in corporate environments: I don’t need to care about licensing and dropped support.
- Comment on Steam no longer supports Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 5 months ago:
I bet, we don’t find a single Windows 8 user who uses Steam on that system. Similar applies to Win7.

When will we defederate from these 22.81%
- Comment on Apple Shuts Down Flipper Zero’s Ability to Shut Down iPhones 6 months ago:
This reads pretty much misleading to me.
They say the flipper could bomb phones within 30 ft range. Via NFC! I would even doubt them stating a range of 30 mm.

- Comment on X's CEO tells staff data will show efforts to fight hate, as advertisers flee 7 months ago:

This is not accurate at all. Germans don’t need breakfast. And now get back to work!

This place only unsafe for trolls. And that’s a good thing.

The kit costs 160 bucks. An old XBOX costs 60. You must really mean it seriously when applying this mod.

You can try ghostscript. No guarantee it will work in your case, but it does with basic password protection.

- Comment on Do portable charges prioritize iphones charging speed over androids? 8 months ago:
AFAIK, Xiaomi chargers offer more current over voltage (which is locked to 5V). Other Android phones may charge even faster than Xiaomis and iPhones, provided the charger implements modern standards with variable voltage.
