- Comment on How do you Sand Coloured PETG without loosing the Colour? Are there any Methods to Preserve or Regain the Colour? 4 days ago:
I think a heat gun would probably work, as suggested elsewhere. A hot surface might transfer its texture to the print?
Oh! I wonder if your printbed could get hot enough to do it?
Otherwise, yeah, 220 -> 400 -> 600 -> 1000 -> 2000 -> 4000 -> 8000 -> 10000 grit might do it.

You’d get laughed off of FurAffinity if you expect to pay after completion.

If you like the art style, I think this is from The New Batman Adventures. Or maybe one of the movies from that era.
Mark Hamill is the best joker.

I’ve polished to a practically mirror shine with progressively finer and finer grit sandpaper. Took an eternity. Worked for the purple I was using, but it might not work for all colours.
I’ve also tried heating PETG with a butane lighter out of pure frustration. It does work, but the line between restoring the surface finish and deforming the print is very thin.

Oh boy, that brings me back… After they blocked net send, well, let’s just say my school board’s internal single sign-on had an SQL injection vulnerability and plaintext passwords…

I don’t know creality, but have you checked your first layer calibration and bed levelling?
- Comment on Anubis is awesome and I want to talk aout it 1 month ago:
That’s why I specified a proof-of-stake cryptocurrency. They use so much less energy that it is practically negligible in comparison, and more on the order of traditional transactions.
- Comment on Anubis is awesome and I want to talk aout it 1 month ago:
Yeah, exactly. A regular user isn’t going to notice an extra few cents on their electricity bill (boiling water costs more), but a data centre certainly will when you scale up.
- Comment on Anubis is awesome and I want to talk aout it 1 month ago:
Scarcity is what powers this type of challenge: you have to prove you spent a certain amount of electricity in exchange for access to the site, and because electricity isn’t free, this imposes a dollar cost on bots.
You could skip the detour through hashes/electricity and do something with a proof-of-stake cryptocurrency, and just pay for access. The site owner actually gets compensated instead of burning dead dinosaurs.
Obviously there are practical roadblocks to this today that a JavaScript proof-of-work challenge doesn’t face, but longer term…

I think a large part of that is enshittification and not necessarily because of AI (though AI certainly doesn’t help…)

Hi, I’m cadekat, and I have a bios password and custom keys in my secure boot. Pleasure to meet you :3
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 5 months ago:
Can’t you load your own keys into your BIOS, letting you sign whatever you want anyway?
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 5 months ago:
Secure boot can be used as part of a chain that eventually ends with unlocking your cryptographic keys only if the software stack has not been modified.
Sure, for most people that’ll make little difference, but it is an actual benefit.
- Comment on Count yourself lucky 5 months ago:
Ah, I see your argument. There’s a non-zero chance of a fursuit being covered in… fluids, so to avoid ever coming in contact, you avoid all fursuits.
That’s somewhat unfair.
- Comment on Count yourself lucky 5 months ago:
Somewhere between 18 and 100. I’m curious why this is relevant.
As for the rest, “anyone implies everyone” is, uh, not a logically sound statement.
- Comment on Count yourself lucky 5 months ago:
Just make sure you note where your maker got your fur, just in case 😉

For some it’s a sex thing, for others it’s not. Often it can be either for the same person, depending on context.
When I’m “in suit” in public, sex is the furthest thing from my mind. It’s just being silly and fun. It isn’t like I’m wearing a cum-stained fursuit and hugging people. That’d be disgusting.
- Comment on Count yourself lucky 5 months ago:
You have no clue. You haven’t experienced gross until you’ve marched through a sea of unwashed shag carpets trying to find the perfect position, getting jostled and bumped by who knows what body part. I still have flashbacks to MFF2014. I was there man, during the gas attack. Getting penned up like animals with literal dogs.

- Comment on President Trump: It's Not Doable for AI Companies to Pay for All Copyrighted Input * TorrentFreak 5 months ago:
Agreed. This really isn’t as simple as "training AI is/is not copyright infringement ".
It isn’t like the technology is going away, and if big corporations with huge IP libraries are the only ones that have access… Well that isn’t exactly a pleasant world.
That said, creators absolutely deserve to get compensated for their work, especially if an AI is regurgitating recognizable hunks of their art.
