I feel a whole-ass aircraft carrier wouldn’t be that hard to track in the Mediterranean anyway.
- Comment on Trump admits that he trusts Putin more than US’s European allies 1 day ago:
15 is a little young to be a dad.
- Comment on Microsoft is working to eliminate PC gaming's "compiling shaders" wait times 1 week ago:
Shaders are definitely downloaded on the Steam Deck. Don’t know about other hardware though.
- Comment on That's the feeling. 1 week ago:
Isn’t figma mainly browser-based?
- Comment on Predator spyware uses stealthy trick to disable iOS recording alerts(without triggering the green or orange status bar dots) 4 weeks ago:
this may be an article for a more targeted audience. Too bad we’re not talking about red dots, but green or orange.
- Comment on Not gonna lie, I kind like it 4 weeks ago:
All the “being old” feels aside, why would you be happy with a “tired” person?
- Comment on Google criticizes Europe's plan to adopt free software 5 weeks ago:
I actually giggled at this.
- Comment on DoorDashers are getting paid to close Waymo's self-driving car doors 5 weeks ago:
Can’t the car just back up half a meter then quickly go forward half a meter?
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
Same.
- Comment on Day 572 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 5 weeks ago:
I might give it a shot at some point then. Steam Deck is the only thing in my household that can run games, unfortunately. My laptop has lower specs.
- Comment on Day 572 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 5 weeks ago:
I really want to play this game, but it unfortunately looks like it won’t run well on Steam Deck.

If I don’t design them myself, I get them from Printables.com. Students come to me with models from Makerworld, and those are, more often than not, terribly optimized for 3D printing.

Not to be confused with ReactJS.

Also, if you’re making raspberry pi enclosures as I think I read in the comments, there is this library that has pre-modeled rpis to use as a reference: https://github.com/nophead/NopSCADlib
- Comment on Good FOSS design software for beginners? 2 months ago:
It’s honestly pretty powerful, you can even import libraries from other users. A good example I’ve found is the board game inserts that user “js500” is uploading on Printables. He has his own library with things like rounded cubes, finger holes and whatnot, then uses that to create inserts for different games. Here’s an example: https://www.printables.com/model/1192543-white-castle-with-matcha-insert-organizer-also-fit
(Make sure to also download the library file included) - Comment on Good FOSS design software for beginners? 2 months ago:
I wouldn’t recommend Blender for anything that needs to have accurate dimensions, as it is a pain to get things right, even with the “CAD” addon.
FreeCAD seems great, but the UI and UX are horrendous. It’s a steep learning curve.
If you have any coding experience, I recommend giving OpenSCAD a look, like mentioned in another comment. I believe most of the older Prusa printer parts were designed on it.

- Comment on Switzerland no longer wants American cloud in the public sector 3 months ago:
The Canadian public institution I work at has been diving deeper and deeper into the Microsoft soup in the past few years. Getting out of there would take a considerable amount of work.

Vivaldi is chromium, though.
- Comment on Do you cheat in video games? 3 months ago:
I never played the Sims or GTA 3 without them.
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 3 months ago:
It does have metroidvania aspects, for sure. But if its the only “metroidvania game” you’ve played, then you haven’t really played any metroidvania games, in my opinion.
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 3 months ago:
Not sure I’d categorize Dead Cells as a metroidvania myself. More of a rogue lite.
- Comment on Steam Hardware Announcement 4 months ago:
I dusted off my steam controller after playing on a Steam Deck for a while, and it felt like garbage. everything is better on the Deck, especially the trackpads. This new controller looks like an additional improvement.
- Comment on Hard drives on backorder for two years as AI data centers trigger HDD shortage — delays forcing rapid transition to QLC SSDs 4 months ago:
Yes, I'm definitely buying used, but suspect that prices will be affected there, too.
- Comment on Hard drives on backorder for two years as AI data centers trigger HDD shortage — delays forcing rapid transition to QLC SSDs 4 months ago:
The QLC NAND shortage is created by the HDD shortage, per the article.
- Comment on God ****** dammit, here we go again 4 months ago:
I recently found out a family member’s passwords are things like “1100011”, “1111000” and similar variations. It’s like they’re already using binary to give a helping boost to brute-forcing bots.

Damn, I started building a home server this summer, and I still need some HDDs for a NAS...
