I like knitting, math, and uplifting the proletariat.

  • This doesn't strike me as particularly sustainable at all? It just makes the object come apart into smaller objects, right? But they're still objects and still made of the same material they would've been otherwise... Just switch to PHA, it's actually for real compostable and more sustainably produced as well.

  • WHOAAA!!! that's actually a HUGE deal and it hadn't even occurred to me how much I was missing it.

  • Is that a Magnus Archives reference

  • It wouod be amazing to see Ibis take off and pick up more developers

  • Wow what are the odds, I was JUST asked to fdm print a bunch of these by a patron! Might have to give this a go.

  • Whoaaa awesome!!! I was literally just checking for a new release a few days ago lol. It's not my cup of tea really but I have a friend who I think might be willing to switch from Windows to this, if it will play games.

  • Also it tastes good

  • Oh wow, I never thought to do it that way, but it makes so much sense! Thanks for the tip

  • Oh yeah, we have an old Shining3D scanner in our makerspace, and the amount of trouble that company has been...

  • I don't have that... 🙃

  • Running a web server on my residential connection is against my ISP'S terms of service.

  • I've always wanted to do this, but I can't afford a VPS. And everytime I look into self-hosting on hardware at home, I just get the impression that it's nearly impossible... My ISP forbids it, and even if I can evade their notice, people say having a public facing setup at home is bound to get you attacked eventually

  • Closest we've got right now is Flohmarkt, right? If they haven't already been working on some kinda trust system, they're probably taking code contributions. I saw somewhere else somebody suggested Loops integration for it, so they could have something like the tiktok shop. I mean capitalism is garbage, but unfortunately we do currently gotta buy stuff occasionally, and it would be nice if that experience sucked less.

  • Oh cool!! Yeah I definitely tried it on a few silly ones just because lol. Now somebody's just gotta try Sharkey, Misskey, MBin, uh... GoToSocial. Probably a bunch more that I don't know about. ActivityPub is so neat!

  • From the different colors of the two speech bubbles, I'm pretty sure HE'S the human toilet, and she's begrudgingly ok with it. Whereas foreskin is apparently a bridge too far.

    Her loss though, more for me then lol.

  • I'm finally making the jump to EOS when my new desktop gets here ~Monday, so this timing is awesome. Super excited!

  • This doesn't realllllyyyy answer your main question, but you got me curious how WriteFreely blog posts look from other platforms, and which ones can see them. So, I tried a few with this post of mine. Obviously some of these wouldn't make any sense, and also for some of them I may have just never figured out how to properly format the URL/search the way it wanted. But, here's what I got on every platform where I have an account:

    • Mastodon ("https://todon.eu/@the-rose-garden@text.tchncs.de/113624027917705904"): If you're logged in, it shows the title, any pictures, and a link to the full text. If you're logged out, it shows you a redirect option to the originating blog. Had to remove this link because PieFed hates it for some reason.
    • Friendica: Shows the whole post roughly as it should look, albeit with a "read more" accordion.
    • WAFRN: Shows the whole post roughly as it should look, albeit with all the pictures at the bottom.
    • BookWyrm: Logged in, it can see the blog but can't retrieve the post. Logged out, it automatically redirects to the blog.
    • NeoDB ("https://neodb.social/users/@the-rose-garden@text.tchncs.de/"): Logged in, it can see the blog but not the post. Logged out, it asks you to log in. Had to remove this link because PieFed hates it for some reason.
    • Lemmy: Can't seem to access the post or blog at all.
    • PieFed: Can't seem to access the post or blog at all.
    • Pixelfed: Can't seem to access the post or blog at all.
    • Mobilizon: Can't seem to access the post or blog at all.
    • Ibis: Can't seem to access the post or blog at all.
    • Peertube: Can't seem to access the post or blog at all.
  • Having used BookWyrm and NeoDB, it's definitely very comparable to GoodReads vs IMDB, at least in terms of interface/user experience/aesthetics/etc. BookWyrm being specifically for books, it has a ton of fields that wouldn't be applicable to anything else, i.e. "publisher", " ISBN". It can pull data automatically from some outside book databases. NeoDB seems able to do that same thing, except for any kind of media. Not sure where all they're pulling the data from. They also seem to have fields for just about anything, from tracklist to director to author.

  • It's really nice! Great UI, not particularly buggy, feels great on the user end. Honestly pretty darn polished for a fediverse platform I'd never heard of until like a week ago. Also, the flagship instance (where I'm at) seems to be mostly reviews in Chinese, and it's always nice to see parts of the fediverse that aren't dominated by English. I am somewhat confused by the difference between a comment and a review, since both terms are used but everything seems to wind up in the same place? That said, I also haven't tried very hard to figure it out either.

  • WAAM printing has its limitations but i still feel like it's probably the lowest barrier to entry as far as pure metal printing goes. That's got to be doable for under $10K by now, right? If you janked it together yourself? Plus below that there's still always lost PLA casting, or sintering composite metal/plastic filaments. Maybe I'm way off base though, who knows.
