ive done this on small parts with an AMS and it works well for snug joints, except on a single-nozzle setup the contamination weakened the part too much. if you have multiple nozzles, this is a great idea IMO

witchfire is in early access but it’s a single player extraction shooter that kicks ass. gunplay on par with bungie imo

vscodium is pretty toothless compared to the first-party vscode builds. i forget the exact details, i think i was having issues with the dev container plugins not working at all.

i’ve been using zed.dev with all of the AI features turned off and its been nice. it’s probably a matter of time before they enshittify too, but for now i’m enjoying it.

every once in a while i get captcha blocked by the search providers. its a little annoying but i can restart the tunnel to get my searches back

imo this and the enshittification of games are symptoms of the same root cause. games are too big and expensive now. one auteur on a 1000 person team can’t have the same level of impact as one auteur on a 10 person team. they definitely have fewer opportunities to develop their reputation/skill/style on big teams

yes, i think flappy bird had a really elegant onboarding/tutorial:

1. main menu screen, tap to start
2. the tap flaps the bird
3. you fall to the ground, learning that you need to repeatedly tap to fly
4. before any obstacles appear, you get some time to calibrate your rhythm
5. obstacles start appearing and the game starts

if it helps, iirc the image on the right was made in a circlejerk subreddit making fun of chuds, but then it got taken seriously by real chuds on twitter

each chat/social network represents a different tier of intimacy with a person. i am mutuals with a lot of people on IG who i’d never give my number to, and i chat with them occasionally.

silver got spayed :(

this is an impossible question. mmbn has unique gameplay and a grassroots pvp scene. mmz is the mega man 2d platforming formula perfected.

if my consumer products company, out of nowhere, made two series of top performing chips at different price points, i’d also want to put them everything

im really picky when it comes to resolution scaling since i do some design, so i have to use an integer scale. 5k gives me a 1440p monitor’s worth of screen real estate at twice the sharpness.

27" fits more comfortably on my desk with a laptop mounted too. 220ppi is just nice to have.

holy price but the xdr being 5k 27" miniled 120hz is kind of my perfect monitor

no depressed millennial has any self respect to begin with

i dont think any journalist, especially a technology journalist, should be using AI summaries in any capacity as part of their research. i’m glad he owned up to it but this should be a career damning event.

with the steam deck starting to age out of newer 3D indies and AA games, i was hoping these companies would continue to deliver. $1800 is steep though. this is a terrible time for consumer electronics.

if you can afford the hardware, getting something dedicated like a JetKVM is nice because you don’t have to wait for VNC software to boot. since it acts like a monitor and keyboard, you can even enter BIOS with it. JetKVM sells an extension board that you could hook up to your server motherboard’s power buttons to turn it on/off too.

for fully software solutions, i like using apollo on the server and moonlight on the clients. it’s built for game streaming, but it works for remote desktop too. i have apollo and moonlight installed on a bunch of my devices anyways so this saves me from installing an additional client most of the time.

shame about americans are getting shot in the street because of it i suppose

gotcha, my mistake i made an assumption

you chose “fascism definitely today” over “fascism maybe tomorrow”
