• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What 3D printer should I buy?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I bought a Prusa MK1 kit back in 2014. It was the right choice at the time. 3D-printing was finickier and you had to know your machine inside out. It’s since been upgraded to mk2.5.

  It’s starting to be worn out - bearing are giving up, belts are tied, cables are experiencing metal fatigue. I bought a flashforge ad5x for Christmas. It’s just a lot of printer for the money. The ceramic heater broke, but I got a new on warranty. It’s been quite reliable, and a lot faster than ye olde bedslinger.

  Looks like flashforge might be pulling some shenanigans with the firmware, but there is opensource mods to save the day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What software are you using for CAD/modeling?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t wrap my head around 2D interfaces for doing 3D modelling.

  I know my measurements, so OpenSCAD feels more natural. I have done a fair amount of 3D programming in the last three decades, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How many projects involve LLM-written code now?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would assume any project that has more than a handful of contributors to have AI-assisted code in it.

  I’m probably living in my little start-up bubble, so my view is probably skewed. The majority of commits I see have not had any code written by humans. Planned, specified and reviewed by senior developers with fancy degrees and a decade of experience in average, though.

  Things move fast, but I’m sure a lot of older and bigger organisations are taking it slower because of the legal unknown.

  I set it up during the outage last week.

  Easy enough to just pull in the synapse docker container and run it on my home server. I wireguard it to my VPS that acts as a reverse proxy.

  Both federation and push notifications work.

  Sweet! Tempo is the best subsonic client I’ve found for Android. Hoping to use it for a long time.

  It’s a protocol for hosting music libraries.

  Think of it like your personal Spotify backend.

  I’m running navidrome to serve music to tempo on my devices.
