- Comment on DissolvPCB enables fully recyclable 3D-printed circuit boards with liquid metal conductors 1 day ago:
That is crazy good… if all I need is to get a pcb heater and learn how to surface mount to print someone’s custom board, it really opens up the possibilities of open source electronics.

The number list is how markdown works. You can enter all 1’s and it will automatically create ordered list.
Handy when you may need to edit list items, as you dont need to renumber even in plain text.
Markdown spec should allow for explicit number by using a bracket ‘)’ instead of a dot, but it may not work everywhere.
Let’s give it a go3) start from 3 1. Then 1. Continue

- Comment on Spotify fans threaten to return to piracy as music streamer introduces new face-scanning age checks in the UK 1 week ago:
As much as I’d like to do that, I have listened to over 7000 artists on Spotify.
I simply don’t have the time (or money) to look those up individually.
So I can either choose to have worse experience, or stick with Spotify for now. - Comment on Spotify fans threaten to return to piracy as music streamer introduces new face-scanning age checks in the UK 1 week ago:
I use audiobookshelf. Obviously for audiobooks mainly, but it does podcasts and it works well.

- Comment on introducing copyparty, the FOSS file server 2 weeks ago:
This is insane. I think I’d use ten different applications and still not cover these features. And I can host this. Using a single python file.
- Comment on Prints appear to be lifting in one corner. 2 weeks ago:
One advice not yet mentioned, if it is your design, try to design with printing in mind. Add stress relief blocks to the model. Add corner adhesion helpers.
There are guides online that will explain this a lot better than I could. - Comment on Elder Scrolls Online devs detail “inhumane” Microsoft layoffs as Xbox expects the “carcass of workers” to “keep shipping award-winning games” 2 weeks ago:

skill or ambition to ensure the tool fits
Do I look like a rocket surgeon
you should probably choose a more foolproof tool and fastener
I’m glad that we’ve reached the same conclusion at least
- Comment on I finished my 3D Printable screw design! Excellent print ability, reliable for simple use, though the head is prone to strip... can't win them all. 5 weeks ago:
Slotted only have two points of contact, which is part of what makes them so easy to strip.
Most other fasteners have double that as a minimum.
Slotted are also generally used in old-fashioned furniture only where I live, and those tend to be very shallow for aesthetic or historical reasons, making the problem even worse. - Comment on 'Spitting in the face of your international audience': The Alters cops to using generative AI for background text and translations, despite not disclosing such on Steam 5 weeks ago:
I don’t have an issue, it was just a question.
I don’t ever translate anything but a few words myself.
My assumption was that a dedicated tool would have done a better job, but you have good points about tone and coherence of long text (and possibly even across many promps of the translation). - Comment on 'Spitting in the face of your international audience': The Alters cops to using generative AI for background text and translations, despite not disclosing such on Steam 1 month ago:
Why would they use LLMs for translation over dedicated translator (apps like Google translate)? Is this common now?

- Comment on Why is the progress pride flag so poorly designed (especially the intersex progress pride flag)? Will it be redesigned? 1 month ago:
Only to a degree. Good flags are simple, distinct, memorable, easy to recognise from a distance, easy to recreate.
There are plenty of objectively bad flags out there that fail in their design, yet people still like them, and that is fine. - Comment on THIS always annoys me. 1 month ago:
Someone correct me, but I understood that donations serve as a tax write-off.
So they don’t care about the donations as much as their own savings. - Comment on Wikipedia Pauses AI-Generated Summaries After Editor Backlash 1 month ago:

It’s not worth the risk. If your job is border control, would you be smuggling goods? Maybe some would, but most would not.

- Comment on Pull to enter, you say? 2 months ago:
This is true and not just about ads. It’s called ‘sign blindness’.
People often run on autopilot when doing things as basic as opening doors, and reading requires direct attention.

I don’t think that’s true, at least for companies.
Industry standard or even company standard means you need a very critical reason to switch because doing so is very costly in ways that don’t really affect an individual or a small team.
This is why large corps often still use decades old software that may be terrible by that point, but impossible to move away from.
