Ah yes the "think of the children to stop porn" act that's actually just a way to legally silence huge swaths of the internet with automated tools. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/04/congress-passes-take-it-down-act-despite-major-flaws

My gf got told "it's a pinch" and "there are no nerves in the cervix you won't feel it".

They stab that shit with sharp pincers to hold it open. Ohhh it hurts.

you either die quickly from a gunshot, and take some nazi's out with you; or you get shipped to el salvador and die a slow death of disease and malnutrition, forgotten forever.

This immediately makes me think this is a plot to make "anti-natalism" considered terrorism. Not a single person I know of who is against having kids is radical about it, but oh man are the pro birth weird Christians sure radical about it.

Horses themselves fart the most of any animal. They hardly even digest the grass they eat it's more of a fermentation process. If you've been around them more than a few minutes they fucking fart almost constantly lmao

Counterpoint:

Good shows remain good because they were cancelled before they got boring.

Boring shows were good shows that got drug out way too long.

That depends entirely on how profitable it is and how much they can get authors onboard.

A. Anything can be profitable when the cost to generation will be counted in singles of dollars instead of multiple thousands for a good narrator. They don't even have to sell many to turn a profit too.

B. You think authors are going to have a choice? Lmfao. It's the publishers that hold any real power and they will jump all over everyone's IP with AI slop to make an extra three cents.

earth is "the projects" to the rest of this galactic quadrant

 

Stratasys is losing ground because their massively overpriced ecosystem is getting outclassed by literally everything else in the market. So why improve if you can just sue your competition out of the US market?

 

I've been doing functional ABS and ASA lately and had a couple very annoying warpage spots. One was a total failure. (We won't talk about the other 3 failures that were wet out-of-the-box Bambu ASA...)

The X1C is definitely nice, but the all aluminum-and-glass side panelling has a sometimes-unwanted side effect: thermal conduction.
The aluminum sides are so conductive that they do not allow the chamber temp to go above 40C, even after a couple hours of heat soaking the build plate at 100C before starting an ABS print.
Enter: One random bath towel. doesn't look like much but just covering the three sides with a thin layer means it's good enough insulation to get the chamber up to 50C now! And the ABS parts look better than ever- every C counts.

 
 

Potentially big changes are coming to ODOT's funding model in the next few years. There are holes that the state can't patch.

 

Sorely needed.

100% chance that they'll still need to toll traffic to cover the remaining few billion in costs but it is a good step forward.

 

Context: when creating drawings from parts/assemblies, you can use a foreshortening break on any derived views (section, detail, projected). However, by default, inventor will propagate that break to the parent base view... which usually completely blows up a different sheet in the document that I don't even realize -_-

Not once have I EVER wanted to propagate a break in a derived view to the parent base view...

 
 

1977 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, a recent addition to my collection.

221 inches bumper to bumper, 425ci Cadillac big block V8 fuelled by a standard Rochester Quadrajet and coupled to a TH400 3 speed auto. Floats like a cloud.
