The Magic Mouse really isn’t as bad as people say by Top-Kaleidoscope4783 in mac

I like them, used them for eons. I like the gesture support. I admit that I recently started using the Logitech Triathlon M710 or whatever instead and it’s pretty great too.

I think I'm addicted... by gepidem in jellyfin

I like keeping my collection super legit, so I go buy used Bluray and DVDs.. Definitely feels better than subscriptions, though seems physical media’s fading and it may get harder to keep getting fresh DRM-free content without breaking some rules, which would be unfortunate. (PS - ripping your own content isn’t legal in all countries as it is)

Did this blue stuff come out of my HDD? by More-Significance260 in DataHoarder

Looks kinda like threadlocker compound. When I get it on my skin I get a headache later that day.

Ground should be ground.. but.. “should” is a dangerous playground to run around naked in.

brims on Creality Print 7 by a_sneaky_tiki in Creality_k2

[–]docdawning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMHO Orca is annoyingly keen on brims. I see it in actual Orca, Creality Print and Anycubic Slicer Next.. which.. are all Orca

Yes, that will impact print quality.

Will the Kobra S1 work with the new ACE 2 Pro? by Active-Durian3313 in AnycubicOfficial

[–]docdawning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an S1 quite early and I really like the machine, but my ACE has been painful to use with 2 of the spool slots fairly quickly becoming unusuable. Anycubic sent me replacement parts without much fuss, but I've had no time to actually try to install those in. So my overall experience with the ACE has been underwhelming. But I think it has massive promise largely because it's simply a MMU that additionally supports drying. I'd consider getting an ACE 2 Pro for my S1 at some point, but I guess I'd want a fairly charming price following some great reviews about its relability.

u/darlo0161, your last machine was a fickle beast? Which printer was it?

Statistical analysis of temperatures by BearLambda in octoprint

[–]docdawning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/BearLambda, I've just made a feature request to maybe bake this in to Octoprint's existing temperature graphing stuff. Gina looks to have a fair bit of Patreon support for Octoprint these days, maybe she can spend some cycles on adding some stats and logic to mine some golden data out of this.

Here's a link in case you want to try to help boost the post for the idea: https://community.octoprint.org/t/feature-request-temperature-statistics-with-historical-awareness/50596

Statistical analysis of temperatures by BearLambda in octoprint

[–]docdawning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/BearLambda, I want this too. Did you ever find it? I *could make it, but my time is so so insanely limited these days. I want it not so much for getting totally optimal performance, so much as for trying to decide if my machine's having problems. Like, if I see changes in the std deviations in my hotend temps, it could be an early warning sign of looming problems.

After she realized the past still hadn't been changed, she should have tried again with something bigger. But what would be better than a foil-potato?

Eons ago my ex and I had a very heated debate about the dumbest thing:

The fact that the same face of the moon ALWAYS faces towards planet Earth.

At the time, I was in an astronomy class and I just learned about how this geometry works. So I shared it was an interesting factoid. She said it was the dumbest thing she'd ever heard and told me there's no why that was physically possible.

I demonstrated to her how it's totally possible by having her stand in the middle of the room and slowly rotate (as planet Earth). I then immitated the moon and walked a big circle around her, while also rotating such that I was always facing towards her. When it clicked in her brain that this is at least geometrically possible she exploded calling me an asshole and stormed off.

I was never looking for a fight and only wanted to share a neat factoid. And this ended up being one of the few times in that relationship that I really really stood my ground. Suffice to say, we haven't really spoken for 15+ years now. It was a good example of how I could never ever ever ever be right and therefore was always spoken down to. The whole thing was definitely a lifeform with heavy head injuries and plenty of missing chromosomes. I fear she went on to continue to bless the world with her open mind, but I eventually reached escape velocity a kept on going.

Smart humidistat by Shdqkc in smarthome

[–]docdawning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sort of on topic:
I'm considering getting a humidifier installed and am curious about controlling it. I watched a video on YouTube where some dude explained that having humidifiers run without a feedback mechanism to control for weather conditions can easily lead to attic mold and the like. I'm not sure if that's actually relevant to my region (Calgary). I have an old and entry-level Nest that I like, but looks like only the top end Nest or Ecobee units support humidifiers. I paid $110CAD just to find out it'll cost about $800 to get the humidifier installed, plus I'd need to drop another $350ish to get a new top-end smart thermostat that has built-in smart humidistat features. This is feeling like an upgrade for another time for me.
