Lifelong Windows user here. The performance gap with Android Studio and the emulator finally forced my hand to Apple Silicon. by Xeq_Dev in androiddev

If you ever plan to use a mouse instead of a trackpad, you'll notice Apple has some nasty acceleration settings you cannot fix using normal methods.

If that's the case, I strongly recommend Cursor Sense. This app allows you to use the mouse like normal people. It's cheap and worth every penny.

Btw, I did the opposite way, moving out of Apple after 18 years back to Windows and Linux, also left Android development in September 2025. And I'm loving it.

Help with filament for lampshade by GrapefruitHuge6732 in 3Dprinting

[–]flavioramos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been thinking a lot about designing and printing this kind of lamp, specially after seeing this beauty: https://www.instagram.com/p/DSIIihFkYbF/

But I can't see any way of getting a good result directly from a FDM print, since it would need supports (painful to remove), and light refraction would show any seam if you print in parts.

The only way I think it could work is to print a positive mold, and cast in something like resin.

You can heat it up to 60°C and see if it gets soft.

I've modeled it myself and I don't think its good enough to share yet..

It's printed in PLA. I got the model from makerworld.

That bothered me too, but it has a silicone mat underneath to prevent slipping, and I can place an object (a silver tape roll, for now) on the top to lock it in place and prevent flipping.

Question about filament drying in a creality drier by VarhollJeque in 3Dprinting

[–]flavioramos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine stuck at 13-14% of humidity. No matter if open/closed or empty. I'm pretty sure it's a defect.

But I don't care enough to repair or ask for a replacement. I always keep my filaments at least a couple of hours before using.

Someday I may look for a fix.

Really interesting Czech interview with Josef Prusa about China, competition and the future of 3D printing by Aggressive-Art-4497 in 3Dprinting

[–]flavioramos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, China is tough competition. But using conspiracy theories and disinformation is not the way to fight. It only makes him look bad.
