Just your typical internet guy with questionable humor

  • Thanks for the input, once I'm home I'll sand the interior walls a bit and maybe add a thin layer of resin and cure in order to leave it smooth.

    I'll also look into getting something to better grind the paper, as I used a "retired" hand blender after I left the paper on hot water for a couple of hours. The paper kept getting stuck in the upper dome, making the blades useless.

  • With a 2 part mold, you do some holes for the water on what will be the back side of your tile and you should be good.

    I made 3 part because I need some details on what will be the top of the piece, little seams to show the separation of each hex, as well as the thinner walls on the bottom. I did try 2 part molds before, but getting it off the mold was near impossible most of the time. Like this, I can just push the piece off. Currently, only the presser has holes for the water, should I add it to the bottom piece, too?

    The thick walls are to endure the pressure and reduce warping, though maybe they could be thinner? I tested adding some gypsum to the mixture, waiting for one piece to dry further and already figured that I have to remove from the mold before it hardens too much, otherwise it'll end up stuck (that or I have to properly sand/fill the pieces like bluewing said above)

  • That's classified information. Repeating any of the actions of your previous clones is treason.

  • Depends on how the city is run. If it's anything like Paranoia's Alpha Complex, I'd probably die before even getting the chance to think about doing anything treasonous like that

  • I'm betting the same opinion we have today about 3D TVs

  • Not american, so I don't know what would be a local alternative to procreate. Seems like epoxy putty? Wouldn't make much economic sense to me, those are more expensive than modelling clays and even more so than me recycling used paper and carboard into that thing.

  • wasn't until he figured he needed a cult following, first

  • Dodge alone is down 29% in sales year-over-year.

  • I'll leave it to you, reader, to guess the "where" it is cast

  • Lack of interest from their part. Right now, they have nothing to gain, fediverse is "small fry", and if the attacks could be traced back to them, they'd have to deal with the PR shitstorm

    What is stopping corpos from scraping everyone’s posts and stuff from the fediverse and train their AI?

    They're probably already doing that

  • What I find ironic is that misskey, akkoma and gotosocial all offer more features (reactions, server-defined post length limit, markdown support, more media per post) and a general better user experience than mastodon, but the elephant gets all the attention

  • "It's not the same republican party it used to be, get over it!"

    It has always been that party, idiot.

  • We'll probably discuss who's actually the evil one and probably have to settle the argument with our fists. Hm, maybe not a good idea, I'm kinda of a pushover, so I'd probably just accept his bullshit and see if evil me could at least have a paid spot for me in whatever shenanigans he was doing

  • “I was a Trump supporter,” he said on Wednesday. “I voted for Trump last election, but, because I thought it was going to be like ... against criminals, not every Hispanic, Spanish-lookalike.”

    Gee wiz, if only someone warned people that trump would act like a total racist and xenophobe when it came to anti-immigration...

    The two men with Machado were taken into custody, but he doesn’t know why.

    Because they were accomplices to a dirty illegal mexican, duh

  • They could literally sell it as immortality elixir, "Look and feel young forever!"

    • Actually diverse politics (though still dominated by moneyed right wing)
    • Amazon is not the nº 1 online retailer and there exists... some competition between the major ones
    • Significantly less infighting between federal govt and states - phones were recently banned from every school as federal law, no "let states decide" bullshit
    • We don't have to pay to make searches in justice databases
    • We have govt-funded hospitals and healthcare (doesn't always work and there's constant right-wing ill-will to sell it all off)
    • 🏴‍☠️ So long as you don't pirate stuff for profit, nobody will go after you 🏴‍☠️
  • So, roughly 7500 dollars from each episode. That's 10x more than what I make working 20h/week as system analyst for the Brazilian govt - 4500 reais, or roughly 780 dollars per month.

  • a script that only works on your machine

    That's why docker exists :D

  • Only mathematicians still like throwing rads around
