- Comment on Self-Driving Teslas Are Fatally Striking Motorcyclists More Than Any Other Brand: New Analysis 1 day ago:
The video 0x0 linked to in another comment describes the likely method used to infer distance to objects without a stereoscopic setup, and why it (likely) had issues determining distance in the cases where they hit motorcycles.

The ridiculous thing is, it has 3 cameras pointing forward, you only need 2 to get stereoscopic depth perception with cameras…why the fuck are they not using that!?

If you think it shakes the part loose when moving print plate back and forth, try reducing accelerations and max speed of your Y-axis

IDK, a mousetrapper effectively does the same but doesn’t require retraining your entire workflow and still allows for precision mouse work.

You cant use it to create or manage workout plans
Bummer, that’s a pretty significant reason for owning a sports watch I would say, probably one of the most important features actually.

AFAIK gadgetbridge is not even close to a replacement WRT functionality? Last I checked it only supported basic data import, has that changed?

It really sucks, they’ve been spared from noticeable enshitification so far but I guess the line didn’t go up enough anymore…

Key thing here is WAS…past tense, it isn’t anymore since the whole xitter debacle which forced him to sell most of his stocks in it.

Yeah I’m just chilling over here pointing out facts that it takes more than bankrupting Tesla to financially hurt that psycho…
- Comment on Tesla is banned from Canada EV rebate program, gov freezes suspicous $43 million in rebates 1 week ago:
Doesn’t he only own like 13% of the stock in Tesla? His wealth is barely affected by Tesla going bankrupt

A reference to The benefit of having a recommendation engine auto add stuff for you
A recommendation engine is perfectly fine and can be fun to discover new things you might otherwise not know about, but auto adding is a huge nono. You don’t want some random shit getting automatically added to your server and taking up space (or using potentially valuable/limited download credit from a private tracker) just because it thinks it knows what you want to watch/listen to/read. Automatically adding new stuff unsolicited it just a really bad idea.
- Comment on Popular 3D printer vendor has come up with a foldable portable concept that's mindblowing 1 week ago:
Assuming every hinge there is motorized
That thing isn’t even a mockup of what it could look like, it’s probably just some AI generated crap. Those servo joints will never bend around the base to align with the height of it.
- Comment on Popular 3D printer vendor has come up with a foldable portable concept that's mindblowing 1 week ago:
Anycubic’s latest innovation could redefine what users expect from portable 3D printers, and has already won the iF Design Award 2025, but the company has offered no official launch date.
Lol of course they haven’t, this is a concept idea with probably zero engineering hours put in to it yet. This is their designers thinking “ooh, this would be super neat!” And their marketing team going “fuck yeah!”
- Comment on Mediawolf - Looking for contributers 1 week ago:
Right now, if you want to add a new movie or TV show, you probably:
Search for it manually across different Arr services
I mean, you only search one arr service depending on the media type.
Check which quality profiles or indexers work best for that media type
Figure out if it’s already available somewhere in your library
You’ve already setup your quality profiles and indexers for your Sonarr and Radarrwhen you initially configured them, so there’s no need to do that every time you add a new item. If it’s already in your library, it showswhen you search for it so not much figuring out.
Manually add it to the right service
Again, you’ve already searched in the appropriate Arr service for the media type. The “manual” action is pressing “Add”, which in assume you’d need to do with this too?
I think I’m confused as to what problem this actually solves?

They do charge over time when terminals are not shorted, but it’s not like they go from discharged to spontaneously fully charged in seconds. It’s a slow creep that happens over an extended time period.
- Comment on How Three Alleged Tesla Vandals Got Caught 2 weeks ago:
Taking your own car, leaving a bottle with prints at the scene and keeping the clothes worn during the act is just laughably stupid mistakes. I mean, come on guys, have you never watched a detective show!?
Kinda /s, but also not because damn those are stupid, borderline hilarious, mistakes.

Definitely looks like you have some extrusion issues here. Check if the nozzle is partially clogged and that the extruder isn’t skipping.
- Comment on Google has a fix for all of the broken Chromecasts 2 weeks ago:
Except that, despite their usual MO, they did actually fix it so people didn’t need to buy new devices.
- Comment on Considering the Anycubic Kobra 3 2 weeks ago:
If you don’t like closed source printers, don’t look at anything from Anycubic. They all run proprietary FW that you cannot modify on proprietary controller boards, and their hot end also use a custom nozzle thats very close to a volcano but not enough to actually use standard volcano nozzles.
- Comment on Chromecast (2nd gen) and Audio cannot Cast in 'Untrusted' outage 3 weeks ago:
Cool, seems they’re less assholes about this that their usual MO would suggest which is a nice change of pace.
- Comment on Chromecast (2nd gen) and Audio cannot Cast in 'Untrusted' outage 3 weeks ago:
Hopefully, the company can send out a server-side fix in short order.
The Chromecast (2nd gen) and Chromecast Audio are two of Google’s oldest devices, with both announced at the same event in September of 2015.
Yeah those are likely considered dead and abandoned by google, they will probably not give a shit about it.

- Comment on Is there an independent model database? 5 weeks ago:
why are you trying to change what I wrote? Its clearly there. I said none of that.
Prusa being “for profit” isn’t the same as the term implies.
Well then I misinterpreted what you mention by that statement, what do you mean by it, if it wasn’t that they’re not a “real” for-profit company?
I suspect you have no knowledge of their platform or how they do business or where or the history of their founder.
No I have plenty experience and use printables a lot, it’s a great platform. I’ve been in-and-out of the 3d printer environment since 2010, I perfectly well know their history and what they once were.
- Comment on Is there an independent model database? 5 weeks ago:
You said that they were not a “real” for-profit company, which is just plain wrong. They have even monetised their printables.com platform, if that’s not a for-profit move in the most classical sense I don’t know what is.
- Comment on Is there an independent model database? 5 weeks ago:
Prua are 100% a for-profit organisation/company, they don’t attempt to sell printers or services at anywhere near cost, which is absolutely fine too. To say they’re not a for-profit company is absolutely delusional.

Second, there’s never enough adhesion.
False…I have a buildtak plate that I stopped using, it will literally stick so well that the layeror two stays on the plate when you try to remove a print.
