  • I am not sure the shareholders will accept such a meager compensation. Did you include emotional damage in your estimate?

  • Correct me if I’m wrong, but Anna’s archive is not giving you song downloads, but rather metadata

    Were they not going to release the songs as well? They just started with the metadata?

    ETA: Yes, this is from their blog post about it:

    The data will be released in different stages on our Torrents page:

    [X] Metadata (Dec 2025) [ ] Music files (releasing in order of popularity) [ ] Additional file metadata (torrent paths and checksums) [ ] Album art [ ] .zstdpatch files (to reconstruct original files before we added embedded metadata)

  • You are in a lemmy instance talking about it, which is why the people reading a post about a version update to it, know what it is.

    Not to mention that this post is specifically in the Home Assistant-community, which describes the FOSS, local control and privacy aspects of it in the community description.

  • Well obviously I did have no idea what home assistant was.

    Yes, this was obvious, but it didn't keep you from ranting as if you did.

  • Can we also take a moment to acknowledge how utterly unhinged this part is?

    "This marks not just the next chapter, but the next book in SpaceX and xAI's mission: scaling to make a sentient sun to understand the Universe and extend the light of consciousness to the stars!"

  • Their web installer makes degoogling accessible to everyone.

    With the right hardware

  • otherwise they will be prone to warp and collapse in on each other. If your item will be as tall as you suggest, this is likely to happen before the print even finishes

    Yeah, this is what happened in the original, failed print.

    I ended up making the model with 3mm thick walls, using two perimeters and 10% adaptive cubic infill (I sliced with gyroid as well, but it looked weird). Turned out great. I made some that were not quite as tall as well, with 2mm thick walls and 3 perimeters, which worked fine as well. It might have worked for the main boss here as well, but I'm not quite sure. The difference between the models was about 55 mm in height. The difference in material usage between the two options was negligible (< 10 g), with the infill variant coming out slightly lower in consumption.

  • Good lord no. Don’t do that. That would be a waste of filament and also cause a host of other problems for you.

    Just to be clear, it is the "hoping to use infill to get some support" that your response is aimed at, right? Out of curiosity, what kind of problems could I be looking at for this?

    In the meantime, I've been printing some smaller bins of about half the height of my problem where I increased the wall thickness of the model from the default 0.95 mm to 2 mm, and used 3 perimeters, which resulted in fairly sturdy walls.

    Looking at the same bin with 2 mm walls without infill, and 3 mm walls with infill, there is barely any difference in material usage.

  • I was writing up some additional questions as I didn't quite get your suggestion, but while writing the response I think I understand. You suggest that I increase wall thickness in the slicer settings to match the model thickness, and not only in the model?

    I was hoping to use infill to get some support between the outer walls and avoid having to use too much plastic and not having a single, free-standing wall.

    If I understood you correctly, do you have a suggestion to what a suitable wall thickness would be to avoid the issue I described?

  • 3DPrinting @lemmy.world

    Sensible wall thickness and infill for tall walls?

  • I do plain text accounting with ledger-cli. Nice and future-proof, and I can easily build stuff on top of it. Other examples are plain text accounting software is hledger and beancounter, the latter which is known to have a pretty good Python-ecosystem surrounding it.

  • We would need open source cars which will never happen.

    :'(

  • When I initially scanned thtough the headlines, I read this one as "ASUS plans to produce RAM problems" and thought "Yeah, of course they are". My expectations of companies seem to be very low in general these days...

  • That's a weird thing to present as an absolute truth. As someone who has exstensively used both Windows (3.1, 95, 98, ME, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10 and 11) and macOS (from 2011-2022), and now using KDE Plasma on my daily driver laptop, GNOME at work and Cinnamon for my living room machine: all three Linux DE are superior experiences.

    Surely there are people who would prefer Windows and macOS over them, but it is highly subjective.

  • They got camera working on FP3 and FP4. Fairphone employs a guy who basically does work to get their hardware to run Linux.

  • I would use Audiobookshelf as a source for Music Assistant, and then play them via Music Assistant. That way I can use my Sonos speakers (and eventually Snapcast speakers), synchronize across rooms etc. If I had to use Audiobookshelf directly, I would either play it from my TV with the TV on (only other way I can use my Sonos Beam) or on my phone with a Bluetooth speaker or headphones.

  • How voluntary is it when these platforms have a monopolistic grasp on how consumers access music these days? And the more people believe that the artists are actually fairly compensated from this model, the firmer this grasp becomes. What choice do they have of being there if they want to have any kind of reach?

    A Spotify Premium subscriptions will cost someone 156€ a year. If that person instead spent that entire music budget on purchasing albums from select musicians according to the enjoyment they derive from their works, or buy concert tickets or merch, and decides to pirate the rest of their music listening, what changes? For the consumer, they are now left with actual, irrevocable access (legal and illegal) to the same music you had rented access to before, and have spent the same amount of money. For the musicians, the ones who received the purchases are left with much more of your dedicated music spend, and the rest will have marginally less (their share based on total streams of your monthly subscription x12). For Spotify and Taylor Swift, they receive marginally less money (but more than the artists you actually listen to) of which they should probably not have received to begin with.

  • I'm not sure how you think Spotify compensation works, but it is not a "one stream and you get paid"-deal, but rather a revenue share model where artists are compensated from a large pool by total streams. The main share of your Spotify monthly subscription that goes to compensating artists goes to Taylor Swift, Bad Bunny etc. Being a top listener to your favorite, but underground band contributes negligibly to what they actually get paid.

    If you care about their compensation, buy the album as directly from them as possible, or buy merch/go to concerts, and recommend their msuic to other people so they might end up paying customers. Subscribing to Spotify and thinking they get a fair deal out of that is not the way, and increasingly not the way (with their GenAI-shenanigans).
