zipsglacier,

I used to nitpick about plural vs singular for dice, but then I decided to never say die.

Is it too late to be posting spooky stuff?

This took me like a week to stitch, another week for my fingers to heal up, and then I went and forgot to post it 😭

My first ever hand embroidery piece. Not too shabby, I reckon! Good tree 😁

My official last project for the extended . Roll on the next one!

zipsglacier,

It’s early… but not too early!

zipsglacier,

What was the last “finishing touch” that you did? After so long, how did you know you were really done?

What I felt after reading "All Systems Red" by Martha Wells

What an enjoyable cozy scifi adventure! The story centers around a security bot with a self-hacked governor module, who refers to itself privately as “Murderbot” and likes to watch serials and movies surreptitiously in it’s free time. The socially awkward bot repeatedly assures us that it definitely does not care about...

zipsglacier,

Chiming in to agree; they get even better.

zipsglacier,

I used the golden ratio bad. But my design is, still.

Seems good actually.

zipsglacier,

I think some others here are missing the point of the question. Right now people are arguing about the fosstodon mods policy that all posts there must be in English. People are coming at it from every angle you can imagine, and maybe some you can’t. It’s amazing! Here on Lemmy we had our own little drama with behaw (de)federation a while ago. (How did that play out? I didn’t pay close attention.)

I think OP is asking how to convey that drama of fedi culture. Not (necessarily) the technical aspects.

zipsglacier,

Wow, I want this! But I don’t have any googly eyes. If only there was a way I could make some…

zipsglacier,

Gonna tell my kids this is why the tooth fairy needs their teeth.

zipsglacier,

Wild thing about this picture is that Wikipedia is basically the only permanent place it can be found. The post there says it’s from Getty, with a link, but that link is now broken. SNL sure isn’t letting this footage out. From the WP article: all the rebroadcasts of that episode use footage from the rehearsals, where she held up a different picture and didn’t tear it up.

zipsglacier,

Here’s something that took me a while to realize and I haven’t seen mentioned much: check where the start/stop points are on each layer (z-seam) and adjust so that they’re not right on parts of the model that are small or need to be more precise (teeth, threads, hinge bumps, etc). I was having a real hard time with some print-in-place hinges, and the problem was that the layers were starting right near the hinge. The finer details were getting globbed up with the bit of extra filament there. Once I moved the z seam, it printed like a charm.

zipsglacier,

I had a similar problem caused by loose thermistor wiring, similar to what other people here are suggesting. I used an extra zip tie to secure the wire so it doesn’t wiggle during printing, and the issue was fixed for me.

zipsglacier,

Maybe you know, but since 2016 whatsapp uses the same open-source encryption technology developed by the signal foundation. This means, on the one hand, that most user content is protected from facebook by encryption that it does not control, and on the other hand that the signal app (also made by the signal foundation) is a readily-available replacement for whatsapp when people are ready to switch.

zipsglacier,

Yeah, you have to wait until other people are ready to switch. I just mention signal each time one of my friends complains about Facebook owning Whatsapp, and eventually some of them switch. I don’t know that about the ads, but I guess I’m not surprised.

zipsglacier,

I’m as intrigued and horrified as everyone else. Also, this is a good time to remind everyone that you can edit post titles on Lemmy, so you can correct the typo. Unless, for all utensil purposes, you meant it to be there.

zipsglacier,

Good luck to you! Let us know if it works out. (If not, just keep that to yourself!)
