I was also working on dialing in the finest details I can achieve with a 0.25mm nozzle and polycarbonate

I had to build my printer enclosure to print these in PC too.

PC/ABS blend is what the laptop’s enclosure is made from too. I’ve already tested with CNN loads that saturate to the point of throttling, and prints are totally unphased.

we’re middle age… like halfway to 75… boombooms stopped teaching zoomies math?

They implemented an alt method IIRC but you must go out of your way to search and find it. I just recall seeing a bunch of post headlines about using email or something like that a year or so back.

They send an initial SMS message that is a main expense and funded by some rich person and donations. I think that has some significance to encryption or something but I’m not sure of the details. I could be wrong on that one, it has been years since I read the details.

not patriotic; not of the culture; targeting the exact motivation of these halfwits in a word. It has nothing to do with simple literal meaning; none of it does

Not at all what I said, or remotely in context of the allegory.

Fuck the Nazi SS and any foreign trash animal that works for them. These are not humans.

The only thing that stopped him was the price of US bonds. It is all we should be focused on tanking

Prohibition made a very rich black market as will tariffs.

It is a rape adaptation… so

I’m 40, and so I experienced the naughties 2000-2010 in dating life. Everyone was just getting cell phones when I was in high school. Cell phones ended the expensive long distance phone calls over land lines. Prior to that, writing culture was the primary form of communication. My parents sent each other letters in the mail. Life was much slower, but information was much harder to come by. Entertainment sucked and was just whatever was on cable TV. Music and movies were monopolies that were largely dictated by a few elites.

People were more social though. Everyone is getting their endorphins from idiot bricks like we are doing right now stranger. There is very little actual motivation to socialize and without the deficit building up for days or weeks to motivate socializing, humans are less likely to put out enough effort or value their opportunities. Now the problem is connecting with someone in the real world while disconnecting from the zombie feed in equal measures as individuals to focus on each other.

Share something useful from Lemmy with someone not on Lemmy, when that something does not also contain toxic negativity or vitriol, but is positive, inclusive, and cordial.

Saving the Princess can wait. Mario’s got a new van bro.

You are a child that cannot handle being wrong, but you are and you have no argument or you would make one. Block me as I have done you. I do not care to engage with children of any age.

Have you ever worked in industry. I spent a couple of years as an operating engineering out of local 12. I worked at asphalt plants as a groundman and loader operator. Most heavy equipment is basically a rental contract with caterpillar or whatever manufacturer. Once the operation is above a certain size, the company is in a position to negotiate contracts that are tens of millions of dollars or more. When a loader or other equipment has an issue, the cat rep sends their team in to do the fix. The only things that are done on site are basic filters maintenance type stuff and when the contract is up, the equipment is replaced.

In this situation, there is no potential for exploitation because ownership was never part of the equation. There is no room for manipulation because the contract covers everything except basic maintenance. This system is already feudalism. When a feudal lord interacts with another feudal lord, of course they can come to terms because each possesses considerable power. The stupid peasantry has no such negotiable position. Our only power is in democracy where we become the largest power against exploitation. This is how the real big picture world works. There have been various democracies in the past where citizens had power against exploitation, and all of those were fumbled by idiots and fools that allowed consolidation of wealth and assumed that giving power to potential exploitation was okay and that those in power would do the right thing. This NEVER turns out to be the case. Ownership IS democracy and a founding principal of autonomy and self determinism. People that fail to realize this critical factor are ushering in a neo dark age in the exact same fashion as what created the last. The future will look back on our era dumbfounded about epic and unrivalled stupidity of the people that ended post WW2 democracy by just giving it away for nothing of substance. It is unfathomable brain rot on epic scales.

It is quite a bit different in robotics like this. Check out James Bruton on YT for a practical example of open source larger robotics. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUbDcUPed50Y_7KmfCXKohA

The motors used are almost always brushless because of the speeds accuracy and torque required. That means everything has software and electronics. This stuff gets very complicated fast. Most traditional auto makers are also outsourcing most of their software development and certainly not full stack or ground up oriented. This kind of thing needs to be designed from the start with every potential feature and future thing as part of the initial project. These types of things cannot be expanded easily. Like this is why China is actually good at EVs because they invested in building the whole thing from the bottom up the right way, instead of hack patching garbage and outsourcing.

This isn’t internal combustion. Every motor drive will be unique. Robotics are nothing like cars or motorcycles. I’m excellent at working on cars. I’m pretty good with electronics. I mean my bedroom is a Maker lab set up for design and etching my own circuit boards and I have messed around with robotics a bit. I have also ported heads for nostalgia drag, pit for unlimited class sprint, and owned an auto body shop building my hotrod stuff on the side and owned a couple bikes.

I’m saying, in the real world, shit happens and that adds intelligent perspective on how you’d look at a thing like this when real world stuff has happened. It is hyperbolic for illustrative purpose.

Such a complex system will inevitably be connected to the internet. Anything that needs dealer support as a crutch is not owned by the end user. If this is not fully transparent and open from the start, it is a means of exploitation. Only fools trust others to do the right thing or care about track records so far. That is feudalism and will result in the dark ages exactly like it did in the past. There is no reason for any consumer to trust-, if an honest product is sold. Honest products are completely open source, and parts can be second sourced from an independent vendor unrelated to the manufacturer, and anyone can potentially replicate the parts and sell them. There cannot be any single choke point where if some asshat quits supporting or goes out of business, the hardware that people paid for fails. Trust inevitably leads to this stupidity, and to exploitation of the built in leverage. It is corporate piracy in the end, and that has to stop.
