Xfinity NOW is only $30/month for 100/20 Mbps with no data cap. Not sure if it’s available in all Comcast areas though. If you’re an existing customer you have to query a neighbor’s address because they’d rather you not switch.

It would be useful to have an “empty spool database” where people post a photo+weight of their empty spool, plus some fancy way to search by image.

Edit: https://github.com/jtrmal/spoolz looks like a partial solution.

Mediocre video. I sat through all the crude humor and still don’t know how the roller mechanism works.

Interesting, Cura does successfully avoid running into the part by default:

If I disable “Avoid Printed Parts When Traveling”, the result looks similar to PrusaSlicer.

8.5 GWh / 85 MW = 100 hours, or around 4 days. If they can build it cheap enough, this is the kind of battery we would need to replace nuclear for dealing with the day-to-day variability of renewables.

Will the Mediatek modules also support VESA Adaptive Sync, or will they have fixed frame rate on AMD cards?

“We are in the late stages of having a user base”

.gov is allowed for use by any governments that invented the internet.

.us is sketchy AF. They should use something.gov.

Here’s the map:

fd00::x is shorter than 192.168.x.x

Technically you’re supposed to use fdxx:xxxx:xxxx::x, but on your home network nobody cares.

Did you mean caveat emptor (buyer beware), or do you refer to Amazon as caveat emporium (the beware market)?

Roughly speaking, fd00::123 is the IPv6 equivalent of 192.168.0.123

A device on your private IPv4 network can send packets directly to 104.21.36.127 via NAT. How will it send packets to 2606:4700:3033::6815:247f? There’s not enough space in the IPv4 header.

You can statically number a LAN with fd00::/8 and NAT66 to the internet, if you really want to.

-Os -fomit-melanin -march=icelake

Interesting, that does appear to solve the same problem.

In my decades of using web browsers, I can’t say that I’ve ever tried dragging text to the address bar. That’s not very discoverable, and the drag action messes with the page’s scroll position.

Self-driving trucks will never be 100% autonomous. They will need a reliable data connection to a control center so humans can figure out how to deal with exceptional situations.

There will probably be occasional stupid traffic jams until the technology is perfected. As long as they avoid murderous rampages, we should be okay.

They’re saying $2.99 because it sounds better than $36/year.

The battery can deliver a stable voltage output of 1.25 V and a capacity of 110 mAh/g

110 mAh/g * 1.25 V * 1000 g/kg = 137 Wh/kg.

Lithium ion is around 250 Wh/kg, so this battery is around twice as heavy.
