I haven’t had the courage to run executable code from P2P networks since the early 2000s. Even then it was probably a bad idea.

I would like to think that my biggest accomplishments (at a major tech company for 10+ years) happened through making good technical/ideological arguments, listening to people’s problems, and telling computers how to fix them, rather than my physical appearance. Whenever they asked me to be a manager, I was like “ugh, no that sounds awful.”

Then after 15 months of COVID isolation, I burned out and left. Now I’m thinking it’d be nice if I’d learned how to approach women and do standard masculine things. The world doesn’t just give you sex for excelling in school/work.

I guess my point is that a patriarchal society makes it difficult for men who don’t actively pursue power over others to form relationships.

My thought while watching the movie was:

Wow this “patriarchy” concept is intriguing. It seems like it would be really useful if I hadn’t gone through life avoiding any kind of power or responsibility.

“The future is already here – it’s just not evenly distributed.”

You are 10% hydrogen already.

It’s not clear to me what you’re trying to do. Are you looking for Dual4010_Satsana_by_Gorroth.stl but in Fusion360 format?

The original model has some .step files.

When I load your model and enable “Preferences > Features > vertex-object-renderers”, the Preview pan/zoom/rotate goes much faster, and “vertex-object-renderers-prealloc” seems to reduce the Preview computation time.

Between 2017 and today, it was a mostly-blank page with the letter “x”: https://web.archive.org/web/20230722020649/http://x.com/

They should park it with two staircases.

I was using voip.ms last year when they were DDoS’d for over a week, by a group demanding payment via anonymous crypto. The DDoS ended when they switched to CloudFlare (which was probably pretty difficult because they’re a SIP provider.)

Almost any website with a small number of servers is vulnerable to this attack, which happens to be great business for CloudFlare. I wonder which companies are most effectively competing with CloudFlare?

independent X and Y accels

This requires patching Klipper, right? I don’t think I want to bother with maintaining a fork.

Though I designed a Z axis brace and plan to add some X/Y linear rails.

Wikipedia says ± 525 kV DC. They’re sending 1.4 GW a distance of 765 km. Previous record was the North Sea Link at 720 km.

Android still doesn’t support DHCPv6 and will be left without a valid address.

RFC 7934 explains their reasoning, though it’s not exactly an ironclad argument.

BL-5C is becoming a de facto standard size for random electronics, but it’s too small for a smartphone.

If we could start from scratch, I would define an absolute temperature scale where water freezes at 500, roughly 1.83x the kelvin scale.

So 4xx is freezing, and the max survivable temperature is around 570. (Water boils at 683, but freezing and boiling can’t both be round numbers on an absolute scale.)

At least my washing machine plays a cute little tune.

Is it an LG?

It is straightforward to run an isolated network with TCP/IP, DNS, and web servers. The hard part would be dealing with software that complains/fails if you’re not using HTTPS.

In general, you would want an offline copy of the entire software stack (e.g. a Gentoo Linux mirror) so you can patch whatever problems you encounter.

Learning 3D modeling is slow process, but there are loads of free models online.

I learned how to use Fusion360 a couple months ago by asking GPT-4. The key is to start with an object you want that’s simple enough to describe, and ask lots of questions.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How do you know about the secret planet at L3?
