No i use that too, works well and it’s cheap.

Diacetyl rest benefits from increased temps, also kveik can be fun to use at high temps.
- Comment on Korea’s POSTECH develops sub-millimeter waveguide to shrink AR glasses 2 days ago:
AR that just doesn’t suck ass would be welcome even without price drops. We’ve had some projects where we tried to use AR glasses for interactive maintenance assistance. They died not because of bulky gear but because resolution and clarity was absolutely shit.
- Comment on Treadmill modded into giant 3D printer with an endless print bed size — taking 3D print sizing to the extreme 2 days ago:
That still leaves a lot of constraints on print geometry though because it will have limited reach over previously printed areas.

Just two of them would be an unsurmountable challenge.
- Comment on Treadmill modded into giant 3D printer with an endless print bed size — taking 3D print sizing to the extreme 3 days ago:
No i would think it’s a significant disadvantage because they’re using DC motors which have horribly inaccurate movement even with an encoder feedback.

No this isn’t a new concept, the size and use of treadmill is not something I’ve seen before though.
- Comment on SignalFire: startups and Big Tech firms cut hiring of recent graduates by 11% and 25% respectively in 2024 vs. 2023, as AI can handle routine, low-risk tasks 1 week ago:
The even bigger issue is probably the lack of senior devs in 10 years because they never got hired in the first place.

Wild…we don’t have them on outlet-basis, it’s the entire house that’s protected by them, they’re installed at the power-inlet to the house so everything is protected by it. And they’re mandatory even on old houses.

It’s a bad idea either to go touching live wires either way, but the rule of thumb I heard was was that a 110V shock usually won’t kill you and 220V shock usually will.
That’s completely incorrect though. I’ve been shocked by 230VAC at least a dozen times, if not more. And the fuse for the circuit absolutely should not be the limiter, the RCCB should trip WAY before the main fuse.
- Comment on Is it OK to leave device chargers plugged in all the time? An expert explains 1 week ago:
Key thing here being that they’re old…there are limits to how much power electrical equipment is allowed to consume in standby mode (at least in the EU) today, it’s not allowed to consume more than 0.5W in standby mode.
- Comment on Prototype of RTX 5090 Appears With Four 16-Pin Power Connectors, Capable of Delivering 2,400W 1 week ago:
There’s a reason we talk about lethal current and not lethal voltage…30mA can kill you, even at something ridiculously low as 9V, but 5-10kV will not necessarily kill you, e.g. fences for horses will not kill you if you’re electrocuted by them because there’s basically no amperage. Voltage is not the determining factor in lethalness.
- Comment on Prototype of RTX 5090 Appears With Four 16-Pin Power Connectors, Capable of Delivering 2,400W 1 week ago:
110 is probably better in terms of general safety
Eh, not really. There is no significant difference in safety between 110vac and 230vac. Voltage is not the (most) dangerous part, it’s the amps that kill if you’re electrocuted.

- Comment on Scientists caution against charging electric vehicles at home overnight 3 weeks ago:
You just need to avoid peak evening hours to avoid overloading the grid, and a timer set to start at 1am solves this perfectly fine.
- Comment on Scientists caution against charging electric vehicles at home overnight 3 weeks ago:
Most drivers prefer plugging in at home or nearby, especially overnight. While this offers convenience, it creates problems for the power grid, which is already under stress during peak evening hours.
Wildly misleading title. Overnight charging doesn’t pose a problem, charging in the evening may pose a problem. All EVs today have scheduled charging so you can plug it in when you get home but it won’t charge until nighttime where load and price are low. This is a non-issue, it has already been solved for everyone but the most dense idiot consumers.
- Comment on Philips debuts 3D printable components to repair products 3 weeks ago:
In what world is a pair of scissors even remotely comparable to a razor!?
Have you ever tried trimming a beard with a pair of scissors? It’s ridiculously hard to do well yourself (I’ve tried). It’ll look like shit and take ten times as long as a good electric trimmer (which will also last you many years)
- Comment on Philips debuts 3D printable components to repair products 3 weeks ago:
They’re less than useless for anyone that doesn’t do a full clean shave. These guards are for trimming the length of tbe beard, not remove all of it.
- Comment on Tesla confirms it has given up on its Cybertruck range extender to achieve promised range 3 weeks ago:
two motors (why even)
To have mechanically independent FWD and RWD, this is actually pretty standard for all AWD BEVs and not just Tesla.
- Comment on Civil disobedience earring/keychain set (requires bread tie) 4 weeks ago:
The people throwing these things tend to hit random things on the street they happen to be in rather than the actual fascists or their property more often than not. Protest, get rowdy and loud, try to change things…but fucking concentrate that shit on the people that deserve it and not just the random shit you see in front of you.
- Comment on If you had $1500 to spend 4 weeks ago:
How fast are you printing? I’m very close to finally pulling the trigger on a 2.4, and would love a bump in speed. my current printer (Anycubic bedslinger with klipper) is printing PLA/ASA at 200mm/s with 6000mm/s2 accelerations and 300mm/s travel while retaining pretty good quality.
My biggest annoyances with my current printer is that despite the probed bedmesh (inductive probe) it doesn’t compensate properly on the first layer across the entire bed. There’s a 0.1mm difference between highest and lowest probed points, i would think this could easily be compensated for since it’s decently flat. But it always ends up with bad sections where it’s clearly not compensating correctly while others are perfect. I also always need to tweak Z-offset between powerdowns, which is a bit annoying since i usually need to restart the first print of the day at least once.

IME these multipurpose machines (especially the DIY ones) just end up causing frustration because they end up doing none of their tasks well.

- Comment on Slate, a no-nonsense EV pickup for $20k 5 weeks ago:
Yes, and yet it is still so very far from reality when it comes to BEVs. It’s fine when comparing cars because it’s a well defined standard, but it’s terrible at indicating actual range especially if you don’t live in dry warm climate.
- Comment on Slate, a no-nonsense EV pickup for $20k 5 weeks ago:
Yes exactly
