  • I once used one to look up my friend from summer camp. He lived in New York City and I didn't live anywhere close

    Library had a bunch of NYC phonebooks

  • Doh. Forgot we were actually up to pixel 10 phones, and thought it was a new 10" tablet

  • Given how Google has treated every other tablet it's ever made or endorsed, you're a moron if you buy this

  • Our machines have the ability to turn the buzzer on after each cycle, but it's not sticky. Given how far away from everything else the laundry room is, even with the chime you can't really hear it. So I have it set to just ping our phones when a load is done

  • Tbh it's more like quake 1 than Doom

    Which isn't a bad thing, but I think everyone would have been perfectly happy with just Doom: Eternal 2

  • These don't really feel like a garden hose, best comparable thing is the spray from a good impact or rotor sprinkler.

    I didn't get the long nut because it wasn't an option when I bought them a few years ago haha

  • I used to feel the same way, going as far as to drill out the flow restriction devices, but I found a shower head I actually like a few years back, a high Sierra brand one, and even it's lowest flow model feels powerful

    I liked it so much I wrote a blog post about it

  • Shame, because I used to actually admire how he handled layoffs. Was a far sight better (from outside looking in) than the "thanks, here's one extra paycheck, send your laptop back at your expense please" I'd experienced

  • Plex is rolling out its big app redesign

    Jump

  • Wonder how many things they shit up

    I was surprised to find that an old Plex feature, controlling any one player from any other instance, such as playing on a laptop and controlling with a cell phone, no longer worked. My wife and I used that a lot when traveling, as plugging a laptop into a hotel TV with an HDMI cable is generally far more bullet proof than any streaming stick

    Course sometimes we'd stay in an Airbnb, and they'd have a Roku or Apple TV, where we'd just sign into a Plex app and use it there. But that's beyond the point

  • I've heard the song and dance from all the tech companies at this point. Google and Microsoft both offered a package that promised things like chart portability and whatnot. Each was shut down a couple years later, and charts and records remain as locked down as ever

  • And frankly, there's not really too much I want to do that the x1c can't presently do, so there's minimal need to go buy a big new expensive printer, or build one

  • Yeah I'm keeping eyes on the voron.

    My next printer must have the following, else it's not much of an upgrade

    • Multiple extruders or changeable tool heads
    • 500mm^3 print volume
    • Actively heated enclosure
    • Lidar and auto tramming
    • Ams like thing
    • Full opensource
    • Core xy. Not interested in a bed slinger

  • Apparently the h2d is crippled if you use offline mode. No cutter or laser support

    This is what I was always afraid of. With the x1c they didn't really take away any hardware features if you put it offline and so the trade-off was acceptable. But locking you out of the physical hardware that you've purchased is a whole new story. Kind of like the dishwashers that require an app to do a rinse cycle.

    For what the h2d costs you can get an awful lot of printer from a different brand
