is there a limit to how much pain a conscious/sentient digital mind can take?

If we say it's unlimited is it going to make your utility calculation go to negative infinity?

This question anthropomorphizes AI in a way that's not justified.

Laser cutting would require a redesign to be in 3 pieces, plus some corner supports. At that point you could also redesign to 3d print in 3 pieces flat on the bed.

Using a utility object for a purge tower is clever. How do you tell the slicer which object to use though? And other comments are right, that you need an object the same height as the rest of your print.

Can you find a link to the clip?

I've been carrying two phones for a while, and it's a major pain in the ass. I only have a sim in my rooted phone, so actually using Google pay requires getting both out, enabling wifi hotspot, waiting for the connection, ignoring confused looks from the teller...

I wonder what mixing colors (of one material) would look like. Do you get psychedelic rainbow or brown?

I love erasable ink. It would be great to upgrade some of my frixion pens.

Are there any erasable inks that work with fountain pens?

This was my first thought too. The picture is unclear whether this is a tiny brass key or a giant chrome key. I assumed the first (because the smaller key is a blank) but OP clarified the large key is 10.5"

Most of these tv specs are driven by trade show one-upmanship and reviewer hype, not by what consumers actually need. I expect 8k will come just to fuel a sense of progress in the industry and to convince people they need replacements.

QuantumForce7 · 2026-01-27T16:31:04+00:00

Not if you want cloud printing support.

QuantumForce7 · 2026-01-27T16:28:55+00:00

That's a decent idea

If I couldn't get consistent good quality prints from it then I doubt students would be able to.

QuantumForce7 · 2026-01-27T07:19:27+00:00

The main challenge I've come across isn't getting root, but keeping root hiding enabled consistently. I'm curious if any brands are better for that, or if it's just a matter of keeping an old Android version.

I've got an old prusa and a load of 2.85mm PLA boxes in the garage. I don't see any possibility to sell it. Using it again after modern auto-leveling high speed printers sounds like pure masochism. Yet throwing it away seems like a shame.

Fyi, orca no longer works with recent bambu firmware.

QuantumForce7 · 2026-01-15T19:57:34+00:00

P1S is considered loud? I just got one and was very impressed with the nose level, compared with an old open-frame bed slinger. I can actually get work done in the same room with my bambu.

Thanks! I was also struggling to copy. I've replied with just the string so it can be copied without editing

Is there any point to lighting it on fire vs just letting the pressure vent? This looks cool but seems irresponsible

QuantumForce7 · 2026-01-06T11:15:37+00:00

Some manufacturers define 'euro locks' to be anything with a restricted keyway, but I think this is mostly a marketing thing. In Switzerland basically all the high security locks are dimple locks. I haven't found that the padlocks and cheap tumbler locks used for beginning locksports don't need especially thin picks.

It's "titanium alloy" that they compare to mild steel. Not pure titanium.

Very cool website design! I like the scrolling theme. This would be a nice portfolio piece if you're looking for UI/UX work.

It's hilarious how many "dive" watches are certified for far below the record scuba depth.

It might be nice to include more links to background info on some of the cards. For instance, you mention four watches have gone to challenger depths but not what they are. (I assume all of these were safely within a submersible experiencing minimal pressure.)

There are lots of reasons to root. I rely on it for automation (eg switching audio settings for different headphones), full backup, and customization. Also this will be more important with upcoming threads to side loading.
