  Numbers like that should have been why you kept going in mech E.

  Once you get past the educational stage, every one of those calculations becomes “OK now round to the closest whole number that gives you the larger factor of safety and move on”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I clean this mess?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  PLA basically doesn’t dissolve in any (readily available consumer-grade) solvents. Your best bet is going to be to take the entire unit as far apart as you can until it is metal only components, heat it with a heatgun to make the PLA soft/melt, and brush it all off with a brass cleaning brush.

  Honestly that’s a complaint I have about nearly every pencil, not just the zebra. They’re almost always hard and smudgy because the pencil has been sitting out either in a warehouse or on an office supply shelf for like 5 years.
  I’d rather bring my own hi-poly brick eraser, or even better, a hi-poly retractable eraser that is a lot easier to control and keep a fresh, smudge-free surface on.

  If Email is ever sorted in any order other than purely Chronological, it is a deadly affront to humanity. Even the “sponsored” two emails at the top of Gmail is an insult.

  #8 all the way.

  If I had to do sketch design drafting with a pen or wooden pencil in college and not a 0.5 mechanical, I would have probably become a school shooter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get your new PebbleOS watch⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The point is not that it is being used, the point is that corporations must protect their trademarks or else they may lose the exclusive rights to them. Intel also still uses the “Core” branding on their modern CPU’s so it wouldn’t be a stretch for them to try and continue legally protecting “Core 2 Duo” under the guise of retaining the “Core” part of their trademarks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get your new PebbleOS watch⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a Garmin Instinct and I can definitely recommend their hardware, but their mobile app to link for notifications and health stats is flaming hot garbage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get your new PebbleOS watch⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And why are both watches a “2” variant?

  Because this is the next generation of the original Pebble watches.

  Core 2 Duo
  I’ll actually be surprised if this makes it to launch without Intel perhaps making a few legal calls and prompting a device name change.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Disposing of failed HDDs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Bigger hammer and a concrete surface. Three good whacks to the thin sheet metal casing (opposite the drive motor/PCB) should shatter the platters inside.

  Realistically if they’re already failed, nobody is going through the effort to send these disks through any kind of speciality recovery for a random john q public anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When building a home server, could a used/cheap PC do the job?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Any normal computer can become a “server”, its all based on the software.
  Most enterprise server hardware is expensive because its designed around demanding workloads where uptime and redundancy is important. For a goober wanting to start a Minecraft and Jellyfin server, any old PC will work.
  For home labbers office PC’s is the best way to do it. I have two machines right now that are repurposed office machines. They usually work well as office machines generally focus on having a decent CPU and plenty of memory without wasting money on a high end GPU, and can be had used for very cheap (or even free if you make friends that work in IT). And unless you’re running a lot of game servers or want a 4k streaming box, even a mediocre PC from 2012 is powerful enough to do a lot of stuff on.

  It’s legal boilerplate.

  Technically yes. Practically nobody does.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I want to branch out from PLA. Should I try ABS or TPU?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  IMO having the ability to do TPU is way more versatile than going to another rigid structural filament.
  ABS/ASA is just “pla but more impact resistant”. TPU is “haha funny squishy wait this turns into a living hinge?” and opens up a TON of print opportunities.

  I mean I was thinking like when you’re flying on a plane and you get to your destination after 5 hours. You probably go use the bathroom in the airport almost the first thing. I guess lemmy can’t think that far ahead though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Gamers Nexus] The RTX 50 Disaster⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not gonna lie, if you’re having continuous driver timeouts that’s probably a personal Windows issue. I had some issues with my 7900xtx until I just fresh installed Windows (despite the install only being a month old) and all those problems magically went away.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Gamers Nexus] The RTX 50 Disaster⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Their drivers are getting there. I have not heard many bad things about Battlemage’s driver support beyond typical launch day bumps, and would consider buying one myself now honestly.

  Their biggest weakness is that their entire architecture is built around dx12 and Vulcan, it has NO hardware level support for dx11/9 or older graphics API’s. The largest problem Arc had at launch was it would run modern games decently, but even games a few years old would run at single digit framerates (if at all!) as their driver tried to translate older api draw calls into a newer API, and very poorly at that. They’ve apparently vastly improved that translation layer by now so it’s no longer a problem.
