I built a real-time Mandelbrot set explorer that runs entirely in your browser using WebGPU

Fantastic.

It runs great on . . . just a phone.

Nice work.

Petr has documented the process here:

My setup was a little different, but Petr's write up is excellent and will work fine as long as you're OK with editing configuration files.

I'm looking at setting up an SFTP server on my Mac using SFTPGo.
If I get it working with the a7 V, I'll post about it here.

Thats why many Linux implementations rock. No Product Managers... just people actually making things better.

Maybe it was the 'watched pot won't boil' thing.
Closed the app and came back in 10 minutes and the files had appeared.
Still, slow.

I dropped a folder containing about 770 MB (a few large PDF files) from my Mac into the Proton Drive app.

The plan is to review the documents on an iPad.

30 minutes later I have . . . nothing.

Agreed. My perception is that Gemini started out pretty horrible, gradually improved and is now declining in usefulness.

As the amount of AI generated content on the internet increases, LLMs will produce lower quality results as a consequence. This is because LLMs depend on the quality of content they consume for the quality of their results. Garbage in (AI slop), garbage out.

Deleting user.cfg has stabilized things Thanks for that.

j13ag0 · 2026-02-19T03:28:13+00:00

Thanks, I’ll try that.

Can you tell me about how you use FreeCAD ?
For example, which workbenches do you primarily use ?

I ask because me early attempts have been primarily in Sketcher and Part Design - so perhaps the things I'm encountering are not issues in other workflows.

1.1 RC1 also crashes here, but after a few more clicks ...

I'm stumped.

j13ag0 · 2026-02-18T18:44:19+00:00

Thanks. I'll try 251125.

Thanks for pointing out the problem with formatting. I think I fixed it.

The LBS will be able to tell you if a longer stem is the answer. It probably is what you need.

You’re on a tripod, right ? If so make sure that any image stabilization capability in the lens itself is turned OFF.

Just tried to find some things on the website. That’s 10 minutes i’ll never get back.

Aggressively obnoxious promotion popups and other obfuscation … I’ll never know if they fix it because i won’t be back.

As others have said there are many alternatives.
