You know… I just had to test it.
Just threw together a model with some holes, it’s actually faster to print without the holes, even though it uses slightly less material, because there’s fewer retractions and nozzle hopping around.
I’m sure you can optimize it more, but for a quick test, just throwing a solid disc out there will most likely be faster to print.
edit: accidentally had the gear teeth bigger on the non-hole version - they’re the same now.




I clean out my SnakeBox pretty regularly. Sometimes there just isn’t a reason to keep them anymore.
It’s worse having to dig through a bunch of garbage to find the cable you want, then to have to order a new cable once every 10 years.


One thing you missed… WhatsApp took off BEFORE facebook (now meta) bought it. So it had a huge network effect while it was independent.


Anything but healthcare
Did you paint this? It’s amazing.


In TOS, when they find Kahn, the first thing they do is give him access to all the technical specs of the ship, which he promptly uses to take over.


I’m not proud.


I’m sure it’s worse than that.
It’s Grok.


The problem is one step higher, the solution being offered is the shitty take.
People hate capitalism, they struggle with real in person connections, hate their jobs, are underpaid, and struggle with basic cost of living expenses. AfD blames immigrants. The solution isn’t to ALSO blame immigrants, the solution is to solve the underlying problems.
It’s a very difficult list of societal problems that specific people are claiming can be solved with one neat final solution, when in reality it just causes more problems and centralized power.


Toyota has the worst possible take on this too. It’s not just a subscription to use the mobile app, which kinda makes sense, but a subscription to use the key fob remote start.
You can’t use the completely offline version of remote start without paying a monthly fee…


To be fair, Spider-Noir was basically a standalone story. They didn’t leave any cliffhangers, or even tease anywhere for a season 2 to go.
The season basically ended with “and then they went on to have more adventures!”

I’m talking about these. If you have lights that plug into an outlet, these are a great option.
If your lights are built in, then a smart switch is a good choice.


I can decide who I want to follow. I hate it when the “algorithm” decides when something wouldn’t be interesting and hides it from me when I specifically followed someone.
Also, contacts of contacts can be reshared by my contacts if it would be interesting, so I don’t want an algorithm deciding that I need to see it.
Basically, show me a timeline of my followed contacts sorted by new and stop trying to decide what I should see for me.
I guarantee that kid loved every second of that.
Old school Brazilian jiujitsu folks have a habit of doing something funny like that after pictures as long as the other person consents.


What about smart wall switches instead? What are you trying to automate?
Almost all of the lighting I have that I automate, I do with a zigbee smart plug instead of a smart light.


Dunno, I guess - new first, only your contacts - is KIND of an algorithm, but I don’t know that anyone would call that an algorithm.


Why? So people who live thousands of miles away can see a headline, dox them, then harass their family based on assumptions for years?
You have no idea why this happened, or what the situation around it is. You have no reason to judge and punish this person.
No, cause this is sunset, which happens when the sun sets in the west.
West is left, which means this picture was not flipped, just taken from an unintended angle.
I like the way he did the comparisons, very easy to understand which one is better for what he was doing.
Pretty cool that you can get such a high quality, metal 3d print of a nozzle for so cheap, even if you have to do a lot of finish machine work yours, the hardest part was done with such high precision.
