“… kind of like how users of gmail, yahoo, and any other email provider can communicate with each other.”

I find this comparison helpful when explaining it to people

I have a pax and find I use weed about the same/slightly faster than a bong. The pax works better with full bowls and sometimes one isn’t satisfying enough so I’ll end up using more weed than I would from a couple small bong rips.

Edibles with the already vaped bud is nice but kind of a long process to water cure it and make into edibles

I’d recommend the Ender 3, I have the Ender 3 Pro v2 I believe, and it’s been very reliable and worked right out the box. I got it on sale at micro center for $100 USD, I’ve heard they go on sale fairly regularly.

Assembly is easy. It doesn’t have auto bed leveling, but the adjustment knobs are easy to use (look up some videos on using a piece of paper and moving the X and Y location of the extruded to level).

It doesn’t have error detection, but I’ve seen some mods online that use an Arduino for this. Even with error detection I don’t think it’s recommended to print unattended due to fire risk.

It comes with a removable flexible textured print surface with heated bed. This texture helps with print adhesion by keeping the part being printed secure while printing. And for fragile parts, you can remove the print surface and bend it to help remove the part after printing is finished. This has worked nearly flawlessly for me, compared to earlier printers where people would use painters tape/glue sticks/etc to help with bed adhesion.

An enclosure is a nice addition, but not really necessary unless you’re doing large prints or really trying to push the boundaries of what you can print. The idea of the enclosure is that it keeps heat in to prevent the part from warping as the extruder moves up along the Z axis. For small parts the heated bed will provide enough heat. You can build one out of plexiglass and 3D printed brackets, or an ikea coffee table (look online for examples).

US picks the first two sites for carbon-capture hubs (arstechnica.com)

On Friday, the US Department of Energy announced that it chose the first two sites to host facilities that will pull carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and permanently store it underground. The sites in Louisiana and Texas will be funded by money set aside in the bipartisan infrastructure bill that was passed early in...

I wonder how much carbon is emitted powering these devices compared to how much carbon they actually capture. I’ve heard that ratio isn’t great, but don’t have any direct sources, just read it in a comment somewhere.

Why’s it look like a cumshot

I have nothing else to ask in this community..... how did I get here? 🤔 (upload.wikimedia.org)

For the past year, I’ve been immersed in the topic of Privacy. I switched to Linux, flashed my phone to LineageOS, changed all my software to one that respects privacy, switched my family and most* friends to Signal, started hating megacorporations and pretty much every government in the world, asked a lot of questions on...

And if not teaching in the traditional academic/classroom setting, at least spread awareness about why privacy is important, why one should care, and what can be done to protect one’s privacy to friends/family/others who will listen
