  • Going from patent and model to STL file

    Jump

  • Is the original 8mm version still not under patent? You could just take that one and cut 1mm of height off of it.

  • This is how big one tonne of CO2 is

  • I mean, those are much higher than 1 atmosphere though.

  • This is how big one tonne of CO2 is

    Jump

  • I guess I'm confused on the definition of a "tonne" of CO2. Am I to believe that if that cube was completely full of CO2 that volume of CO2 would weigh 1000kg?

    Nevermind, just looked it up. It's actually a measure of volume, just 1000 cubic meters, which makes perfect sense.

    Edit: it was actually the first one, although a "tonne" as a measure of volume does exist.

  • 196 Stands with Palestine, but those of you in the US should still vote in the general election.

  • While I agree with communism in theory, some of the language on the page regarding revolution is problematic IMO and is not going to gain the party any favors.

    Also some of the stuff they have listed on the site is pretty hilarious:

    The German Revolutions in 1918 and 1923, and the British General Strike in 1926, show us that even in the economic powerhouses of capitalism, the contradictions of capitalism cannot be fundamentally overcome. In fact, in 1968, the largest revolutionary general strike in history shook France. This was a country that had been lauded for its high living standards, and it occurred during a period of economic upswing!

    Literally every example they list of "the contradictions of capitalism cannot be fundamentally overcome" is an example of a country that is still capitalist lol. (Maybe because the real life examples of communism objectively haven't turned out that great.) So they've continued to overcome them. And sure you can argue a country like France has a lot of socialist programs and legislation but it's certainly still a capitalist country.

  • Why is Biden blocking the cheapest, most popular EVs in the world?

    Jump

  • Yes Trump imposed the tariff but since Biden didn't cancel it he gets the title of the article. What 🤡 shit.

    Also as another commenter pointed out, these vehicles would never pass NHTSA standards anyway.

  • HDMI Forum Rejects Open-Source HDMI 2.1 Driver Support Sought By AMD - Phoronix

  • TVs don't have DisplayPort. I just bought a new TV, none of the options I looked at had display port.

  • GNOME 46 is Coming in Hot With These 6 Features

    Jump

  • Funny I feel like a lot of people said that about the multiple desktop cube that is finally coming back to plasma.

  • Sunak to drop heat pump targets in fresh retreat from Net Zero

  • The UK is really giving the US a run for its money on who can run the worse government.

  • Gentle reminder to everyone that support for #windows10 ends in about 90 weeks. Many computers can't upgrade to Win 11 so here are your options:

    Jump

  • It does, you can manually install windows 11 even without the hardware "requirements"

    Everyone is fear mongering over this. It's the same shit how windows 10 didn't officially support a bunch of systems but you could install it anyway.

  • Need help identifying type of 240 wires

    Jump

  • Awesome!! Glad to hear it. As long as the dryer doesn't need the 4th wire for 120v separate from the 240v you should be fine. Hopefully whirlpool didn't tell you the wrong thing. Kinda stinks for future upgradability though in case you wanted to get a dryer down the line that requires the 3rd conductor.

  • Need help identifying type of 240 wires

    Jump

  • Also OP, what year was your house built? Assuming you're in the US if it was built in the 70s or 80s that could be aluminum wire, which you absolutely should not connect to anything that is copper due to fire hazard. The aluminum and copper together cause corrosion which makes the wires not make good electrical contact and thus it heats up and causes a fire.

    Please just replace the wire and don't try to use it.

    Edit: just saw your edit. Yeah, it was aluminum, glad you're replacing it.

  • Need help identifying type of 240 wires

    Jump

  • Yeah, my first thought was to come into this thread and answer "I've identified it as the kind you replace"

    Look at the wires in those pairs, they look like they're falling apart from each other. Do you really want to risk an area in the wall where one of those wires being thin/having strands broken which is going to cause it to heat up inside your wall?

    This has fire hazard written all over it. Just replace the wire and stop trying to take the easy way out. You'll thank yourself later when you still have a house to go home to.

  • Gentoo goes Binary (packages)

    Jump

  • Isn't the reason everyone says they use Gentoo is because of "all the optimisations" but if you're not compiling for your specific hardware doesn't that go out the window?

  • KDE's Nate Graham On X11 Being A Bad Platform & The Wayland Future

    Jump

  • Uh reading the article, pretty sure the author would phrase it as "Nvidia GPUs don't support Wayland yet" and that author would be absolutely right.

  • Gnome is the desktop environment. You may have gnome already installed if that's what your OS uses, otherwise you probably have KDE. There are others but those are the 2 big ones.

    The Desktop Environment is what gives the OS its look, and typically which GUI programs are installed by default.

  • what's the difference?

    Jump

  • Git = bittorrent

    GitHub = the pirate bay

    Code = content

    Even that's not the perfect analogy but it's better than the OP.

  • Can't steal something you don't own. And people should never forget you don't own anything on these platforms.

  • AMD Ryzen Powered Framework Laptop Linux Testing Held Up By BIOS Issue

  • It was a kernel regression that caused the issue, not sure that is entirely their fault. I would think that's more on AMD and the kernel devs.
