I’ve always wanted a Voron (https://www.vorondesign.com/). There are plenty of shops selling parts kits, and some selling prebuilts. We’ll see what we makerspace members agree on, if we’re even getting more FFF printers. We share house with a board game club, so there’s a lot of local interest for getting a resin printer. That’ll likely come first in any case

Aight, Prusa’s out. Won’t be choosing them for our community makerspace any longer

Sure, I get that. Dams often involve lots of concrete, which emits insane CO2 during production; and dams devastates large areas of nature (or human settlements).

Just felt it weird to state that natural gas is required for a stable renewable power grid, when hydro exists. Wherever hydro is possible, it’s almost certainly better than natural gas in most aspects.

Forgot about hydropower, the OG and also most reliable renewable

This is fuckin wild.

Fascism is rising again like a century ago, and we need to stand against it. A lot of people need to go from ‘not fascist’ to ‘antifascist and organised to resist’ real quick; if we’re to avoid fascism engulfing the world in cruelty and arbitrarity for the next fifty years

Google is enshittifying Pixel and Android with noone poised to stop them, so it’s a bet where the odds of a getting a good long-term experience are stacked against you.

Would you consider a different manufacturer with less user-hostile behaviour, like Fairphone or Shift?

Fwiw your old op6 will make a mighty fine server

I asked for something human-readable /s

I’ll give it a go:

• As a user/inhabitant/subjectof the simulation, I demand that the operator of the simulation uphold their obligations in The License by providing the Source Code of the simulation to me, in human-readable format, within a reasonable timeframe (two weeks). The source code may be conveyed via USB stick, CD, clouds in the sky, or other reasonable media.

This will make it more difficult and dangerous to make and publish the apps needed by people who work against oppressive regimes and cynical businesses. Bad megacorp, Google

Denmark did a genocide against the Inuit peoples, according to the UN convention on prevention and punishment of the crime of genocide: https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/documents/atrocity-crimes/Doc.1_Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.pdf

Wuhuuu!

Norway has pretty draconic surveillance laws regarding digital cross-border communication, allowing all comms (encrypted or not) to be stored in the servers of the intelligence service for years, with the vague hope of combatting organized crime and terrorism.

If you use post-quantum encryption you should be fine though.

This increase is too abrupt, I don’t trust its accuracy

Join or start a community plastics recycling effort in the style of Precious Plastics.

If you like 3D-printing, make and use a Trashprinter V3 in combination with a plastics shredder.
