Conical Slicing: A different angle of 3D printing — CNC Kitchen

OH: “software engineers should make their headphone music half as loud and their screen fonts twice as large.”

@mcc @ieure perhaps this doesn’t matter, but just in case: this isn’t a thinkpad

it seems my situation (existing firefox account, linked to an existing, unused pocket account; separate, existing pocket account) is not accounted for

Firefox/Pocket have utterly screwed up their account migration and now I'm in an infinite loop of redirects between firefox and pocket logins. Woo

@cstross @BillySmith @dampscot even that isn’t consistent. If you qualify the GP will probably recommend you get them; and might run a limited surgery. But many folks turn to private providers like Boots

@videah thanks for writing up! I love my Libra 2 but it’s stock and I’d like to adopt some of the hacks you describe

@Conan_Kudo @zhenech Than the pypy one, sure, but I don't think it's older than devscripts/debuild (one b), which dates from <1999

I wonder if the Bambu a1 mini’s MMU could be bodged to feed a prusa mini #3dprinting

Due to some ructions in Bandcamp-land, I’ve been thinking (again) about scripts to ensure local downloads of all purchases

Apparently macOS safari has a functioning “local web app” feature now. https://www.jwz.org/blog/2023/09/web-apps/ - I’m still sad Firefox resolutely refuses to do this
