You’re right! Tech companies need to stick to the easier problem to solve, self-driving cars! 😆

They have self-driving cars, but self-closing doors is still at least 10-15 years away.

Boo! At that point, I think I’d try to get high-temp PLA if having a matte finish is a priority. What sort of durability are you attempting to achieve with this matte PETG?

I’ve never seen a PETG that isn’t glossy.

Hey, the poor billionaire CEOs are under a bunch of pressure to ensure the company sticks to its infinite growth schedule.
- Comment on Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App 2 weeks ago:
Sadly, I’m guessing this is transparent to iOS users, they think they’re supporting creators with $X each month, but behind the scenes, the creator is getting $X * 0.7 and then I’m guessing Patreon also takes some off the top of that for their infrastructure.
- Comment on Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App 2 weeks ago:
Damn! Creators are going to need another Patreon to supplement their Apple-induced Patreon shortfall.

- Comment on The AI explosion isn't just hurting the prices of computers and consoles – it's coming for TVs and audio tech too 4 weeks ago:
I’m not sure. Current “dumb” TVs do actually exist, just search for commercial TVs. All the major brands make them for commercial applications where the end user has no need for traditional smart apps. Sadly, they cost a bit more (but not by a ridiculous amount) and may not have the latest alphabet soup image tech, but they look fine and work great. They still run an OS, but it’s stripped down to the bare essentials, usually just settings and input, not usually any apps. If any apps are installed, they’re unobtrusive and geared toward their intended purpose. I’ve been tempted to buy one, but the larger the TV the wider the price gap. The sweet spot seems to be at 65".

- Comment on TIL there was a TV tuner attachment for the Game Gear! 3 months ago:
I got one for xmas one year, probably it’s last year when Sega was clearing inventory, because I didn’t ask for it. All I ever had was the pack-in Sonic title. I wish I kept it so that I could modernize it, but who would have seen that coming? I remember playing it and then seeing the battery light flash and I was like, “I wonder what that means, that can’t mean a low battery since I’ve not been playing it all that long!” Yep, it was a low battery :(
It probably wouldn’t have been a big deal IF Sega bundled a damn AC adapter with it instead of charging separately for it. It was hard to convince my parents to get me video game stuff as a kid.

Yes! I remember wanting one and envying the kid on the bus with his!
- Comment on Filament drybox inlay by chwiede | Download free STL model | Printables.com 3 months ago:
That’s awesome, sounds like we made identical configurations! For the original roller, I ended up having to widen the part with the spoke 1mm so that my bearings would roll, but it seemed like such a waste to use 4 per box. It wasn’t until a few weeks later I came across cmyk’s solution. I really like it except it is a bit difficult to get a nut to interface with a screw. I think I have the knack down now. Really, I could almost see not using a screw and nut with it since it fits together so tightly, but if I didn’t do it, it would probably come apart at the worst time during a print.

I went with gunplamark’s Ultimate Cereal Drybox too. For mine, I did his remix with cmyk’s precision single bearing rollers (printables.com/…/1339511-precision-single-bearing…) instead, which only uses two bearings instead of 4 per box. I also made myself a pegboard adapter using Sy’s pegboard pegs and a blank hanger.

Nice! I really like these boxes based upon that cereal box, but you have to watch out, there are copycats of the Wildone. This is the one you should buy (and appears to be the one you used): www.amazon.com/dp/B07NP98YKY.
At first, I accidentally purchased ones by “MCIRCO.” Despite having almost the exact same product pictures, they are not the same.
- Comment on First Shape Found That Can’t Pass Through Itself 3 months ago:
I always liked how the Borg’s algorithm to assess nonsense shapes is to throw more Borgs at it instead of being like “Further data is required” and then return to the area where the data was collected. If they couldn’t collect it, then run a diagnostic on the Borg that presented it. It’s almost like the Borg collective never assimilated any species that had hackers or social engineers in their populations.
