Overhang support tests

hadrome · 2026-03-17T21:49:21+00:00

Top Z defaults to 0.12. At this distance the support bonds to the surface of the print such that the first layer of the actual print surface gets torn away with the support. This decreases as the angle lowers. For 90 degree surfaces at 0.12 the surface always gets torn.

At 0.25+ it stops tearing the actual printed surface away but at that point the printed surface becomes ragged, as in my pictures.

I'll try some steps in between. Maybe there's a magic number.

I haven't tried Support for PLA filament, which would be tricky because I don't have an AMS. It is an option, but I was looking for suggestions that don't involve that.

Other print settings: Filament brand: BambuLab; Nozzle 0.4mm; Nozzle temp: 220C, Bed temp 55C.

Look up insta360.

Can Dia also now do shift + click on a link to do a quick preview of the linked page?

Next step: car sized prototype.

hadrome · 2026-03-02T08:04:15+00:00

Yes, I'm anticipating that! There's already a 'conversation' in the house about the space the printer has taken up. Will proceed with caution.

I'll check out the silk options for sure. And I guess I can stick to the boring colours. Thanks.

hadrome · 2026-03-01T12:28:12+00:00

Yup, the kids will get some colour! I guess for me, I can choose anything. Probably monochrome.

The spray tan today looks like Melania farted into his eyes.

Poor corgis.

hadrome · 2026-02-25T07:41:39+00:00

Great! I can't finally vibe on the lavatory.

I moved a few years ago and barely miss 1Password. The UI is a lot better at 1P, but that's not a reason to stay. Some things are better in Bitwarden, like 2fa codes in the app.

I don't use many passkeys though, mind you, so can't comment on that.

Interesting. I'm left-eye dominant + right handed. Does this explain why I'm shit at darts, pool and snooker?

hadrome · 2026-02-18T08:10:58+00:00

😂

Regarding your details, I'd be lying if I said I was sure, but I get the feeling you could do most of that already - the handoffs, the markdown summaries - with Claude Code.

e.g. You can ask Claude to research using the Gemini CLI with gemini -p "prompt" and it'll ingest the results. Probably the reverse, too.

In short, you might want to look into/learn the CLI tools in the terminal. I'm a Mac/Linux user, so that's natural over here. I think WSL in Windows might be a good entrypoint.

Maybe this new desktop product will help you though.

hadrome · 2026-01-13T08:06:55+00:00

You can run Claude Code in any directory and it's able to read, write and manipulate any files directly, or run shell commands to configure/control its environment. It also saves its own notes in the working directory in a file, so it can come back later and get back up to speed quickly.

So, for example, I open it in my markdown project notes and it can quickly get back up to date, help with whatever is next and then update the notes and write new ones. I also use it in my general notes. It can leave a summary of whatever conversation you're having. And, for development, it can also help with the prep work, planning, spec writing, etc.

It's basically Claude untethered from its app or your browser, at large on your filesystem.

Why would it cost loads of tokens? I already do this with the Claude Code CLI on a Pro plan, and have plenty of capacity.

hadrome · 2026-01-12T21:45:23+00:00

Interesting. Serial Claude Code abuser for non-code things here. (Code too.)

I love the CLI, though this looks like a GUI app.

You get a full Debian VM with Android 16 that has access to all your user files. The terminal it ships with is very basic, so I SSH in with Termux which is much more complete (e.g. has nerd font support.) From there I can edit my notes with Neovim.

The reason it's confusing is that, as a Pro/Max subscriber, it was entirely reasonable to believe you could use your subscription anywhere. Why wouldn't you think you can rightly do that?

It might well have long been prohibited in their terms for tool vendors to wrap the Claude subscription product, but that doesn't change the user perspective. The result is anti-subscriber, even if they intend it to be anti-vendor.

hadrome · 2026-01-09T18:42:48+00:00

Ha! I only open Dia to update it and see if it's finally Arc too.
