Benchy test print (15 minutes) is complete, so I guess I can start planning holiday show-bag gifts for nieces and nephews

#Prusa3D #CoreOne assembled from kit ( www.prusa3d.com/product/prus... ) in roughly 36 hours, including 5 hours of sleep and frequent toddler-herding

Quite fun and satisfying

I did make a few mistakes, but wholly my own, and avoidable by reading the actual instructions

Oh, the sixel and/or kitty image protocols?

Zoo CAD TUI app when? :)

Just saw a comment that h8ers is short for huberneters 🤯

Ummm, ignoring the genocides for a moment, there's capitalism extracting value out of human beings and discarding them when there's no more value

Hehe, at first this seemed like a perfectly innocent, innuendo-free post

It took me a few moments to remember there was a different kind of "stripper"

It occurs to me that we could continue to use #Rust closure syntax for procedures that operate on (or capture) outer state (e.g. side-effects), but tweak the language to restrict `fn` syntax usage to pure functions only

Is there a language that has this syntax difference for side-effects?

i regret to inform you that the next 700 programming languages are going to be "types with baggage"

Rapid PETG ELEGOO RAPID PETG 3D Printer Filament 1.75mm, Support Up to 600mm/s Printing Speed, Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.02 mm, 1kg Spool (2.2lbs)

#3DPrinting with my first spool of #Elegoo Rapid PETG ( au.elegoo.com/products/rap... ) bought at #Jaycar , looking very clean and sharp on a slow speed profile

I should recalibrate my #Overture PETG ( overture3d.com/products/ove... ) now that I've figured out the speed issues on my printer

Imagine Android and Chrome being the most secure and most private technologies on the planet in an alternative timeline where Googlers don't have to protect the advertising money tree :sigh:

Yep, Big Tech has forgotten how to under-promise and over-deliver

Instead we get hype and paper-launches and rug-pulls

True even without "dollar" in that sentence :P

I'm surprised GNOME even supports extensions officially

And the extension authoring experience is hot garbage: GJS is JavaScript bindings to C/C++ so you have to worry about pointers and memory-safety ... in JavaScript

Pure GNOME is great, though

COSMIC is definitely not quite 100% for every use case

It's astonishing how much it does cover, considering they had to create from scratch the Rust equivalent of wlroots in addition to all the other tasks

For my use cases that align perfectly with upstream philosophy, GNOME is excellent

The second I have to reach for that first extension, I've entered a world of crashes and glitches and not being able to update GNOME without breaking that extension

I got my Bluefin stickers!

have you seen the new python package? it's on pypi. you can literally install it with pip. set up a venv. grab it with poetry. you just use rye. run it with pipx. you can install it with uv. install uv right now. go to uv. dive into uv. you can uv it. it's on uv. uv has it for you. uv has it for you

OH: “fine, I’ll read your monad tutorial. I can’t believe those words came out of my mouth”

One of us! One of us! :D

Reducing acceleration does seem to have resulted in less severe delamination, but it hasn't gone away completely

So I think I need to reduce it just a little bit more

#3DPrinting

I've been noticing some delamination (layer separation), but only on solid infill and top layers, and only on larger surfaces

There are no noticeable issues on short lines, so I think this is something to do with acceleration, which I didn't realise was a thing

#3DPrinting

OMG, that would be amazing, take my money!

COSMIC has been excellent for my needs since early alpha, although I do find I need to drop back to GNOME to get some Steam games working sometimes

Plus, it's helping me eliminate memory-unsafe languages from my stack, and the COSMIC community isn't like this: drewdevault.com/2023/09/17/H...

OK, WTF Are Wordcels and Shape Rotators? Knowing what shape rotators and wordcels are will make you significantly dumber, but if you simply must, read on.

Ah, terrific, another pointless front in the culture wars: www.vice.com/en/article/o...

Well, TIL :S

Is a "wordcel" someone who is celibate because of words?

Write.as Type words, put them on the internet. Reach friends and family no matter where they live online.

It's still surprising and frustrating to me that progressive teams still choose Substack (the Nazi bar option) over literally anything else, urgh

There's write.as and ghost.org for a start

Our society currently rewards neither empathy nor competence :S

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.
