He's just waiting to see if you are going to laugh at his joke!

Also 90-95% of print failures are due to a bad first layer (citation needed).

The best part is there are hand writing generating programs or even web pages that convert text to gcode allowing you to use a 3d printer to write things out. In theory it should be really hard to pass it off as being human written, let alone match your own writing, but I'm sure it will only get better. I think there are even models to try to match someone's writing.

Yes lol. Souvenir from the dinosaur casting museum in Tucumcari, NM.

I was playing with my POP2 3D scanner, scanned this toy fish of my kid's and 3D printed the resulting scan. I had to manually draw the spots on it, but really happy with how it turned out. Pictures don't do it justice just how exactly the same they are in hand. Not all of the textures came through though.

Wow this sounds a lot like my outlook with Ff7 remake. I begrudgingly bought it on steam when it was on "sale" for the still too high price of $40, and when it was good it was great, but other than one mission it is just the story of Final Fantasy VII up through Midgar with a stupid amount of boring fetch quests to pad the time. Saying it is maybe 33% fun engaging game/story 67% boring fetch missions or "go kill this boring monster" over there is in my opinion being very charitable.

It is my opinion that it should be legal to paint said stripes on someone's car if they park over the line. Should really hammer just how much of an asshole someone is if they have multitudes of stripes.

I just recently got a Revopoint Pop 2, and I've been thoroughly impressed by it. I feel anyone looking at 3D scanners needs to keep expectations in check (they are not magic), and it takes work to get good scans, but personally I think it's well worth looking at Revoscan. For hand size and up, the Pop 2 or Pop 3 are great size. The mini is for very small objects, and I'm not sure of the Range can do that small (but it looks SIGNIFICANTLY better for larger objects). I've only had it for a week, but do you have any questions on it?

Also, check their ebay store. I got the Pop 2 openbox that way directly from Revopoint, and it was only $350 for the base, or $400 for the complete kit with turntable, battery bank, and case. The turntable alone is DEFINITELY worth the extra $50.

Don't threaten me with a good time.

I thought a hacked 3DS couldn't play original NDS games without one of those ROM cards for the original DS. Can you run original DS games without it now?

Disclaimer: I am no expert by any means.

With that being said, as others have said, a DNS is like a phone book. By using PiHole with it going to a privacy respecting DNS service, you in theory eliminate being tracked by a DNS provider, but you do nothing to prevent your isp from tracking which ip addresses you access, and you do nothing to prevent search engines tracking which results you click on, you do nothing to prevent your web browser from tracking your browsing (especially on Chrome and Edge).

In summary:

DNS lookups: yes

ISP with IP addresses: no you would need a GOOD VPN or TOR and either one properly configured

Web browser: no, you need at least Firefox with data collection turned off, preferably with something like ublock installed.

Search engine: no, requires more research but supposedly duckduckgo and eccosia are privacy respecting *citation required

Firefox for life! Well as long as they don't go evil or bankrupt. I am not surprised at all though.

  1. Kneecap plugin performance especially for AdBlock plugins claiming it's for security.
  2. Notify users that those plugins are slowing down Chrome.
  3. ???????
  4. Profit... or people hopefully switch

Quite Operational (lemmy.world)

I'm afraid the Star Wars Memes, and the Fediverse, will be quite operational when our friends arrive.
