they are illegal in Australia… I remember how crap it was when it wasn’t…

They run GrapheneOS Wonderfully…

LOL… Malicious compliance at its best…

I backpack it everywhere. I love boundary supply, but they’re expensive and lord almighty are they slow to ship…

That being said, I EDC a Prima system as it also hadles my laptops and camera gear which travels with me frequently. I’ve just added one of their bottle carriers to the shoulder strap and I’ve got another one to install…

In addition to the backpack, I’ve moved to pants with plenty of pockets. I live in 5.11 cargos (pants or shorts) and even wear the 5.11 tactical jeans which have an extra pair of pockets (usually for ammo. I use them for wallet and phone…)

Someone made it and got it flying. Its available as a hobby rocket model kit:

My favourite was when my GP gave me a list of 10 docs to call to see who was taking referrals for adult diagnosis.

Yeah, that list sat unopenend (combination of overwhelmed and totally forgot) till 6 months later when I had to see the GP again, I panicked, and I called all 10 in the 30mins before my GP appt and then was late for the GP and almost missed my GP appt…

Fun times…

Or just wait for you to do it yourself…

This needs a government / IEEE / domain registrar policy of some sort. Maybe it should simply be that all expired domains are put into stasis for 10 years.

If you want to buy it and have access to it sooner, then you need to run (and pay for) a program of works to catch and proactively kill all linked accounts, and build a register of embargoed existing email addresses that must be set to bounce.

I knew this was a problem, but wow, had no idea it was this bad…

Because I have a firstname.lastname@popularcloudemail.domain type email, I get SOOO many people signing up for accounts with my email, forgetting that theirs had some number suffix. I get peoples phone bills, pizza receipts, Amazon orders, parking meter e-receipts, Xbox live accounts, Dropbox logins, you name it.

I NEVER thought of what that would look like at a domain level!

As a product manager, I simply choose to overlook things like “implementation details” or “the laws of physics!!” /s 🤣

On a more serious note, I’m just reaching a point where I just want a small, reliable, and minimalist mp3 playing app for the Mac, as I’m starting to get sick of every single service wanting $20/m for stuff.

I pine for the whipping the Lamas ass winamp used to give…

There’s a recreation in re:Amp for osx, but I’d much prefer OSS apps…

Generally, I’d rather go back to just buying the music I want, ripping it and putting it on the devices I want to listen to it from…

Mac Port! Mac Port! Mac Port!

BlazeCut Tseries 50cm is about right for a 3d printer enclosure volume.

Prusa sells a 30cm one as an option for their enclosure, but it is undersized for the enclosure volume, so I bought the 50cm one separately.

I’m a product manager and I want to punch this comic strip!!!

I live in a subtropical area.

Short answer: YES!!.

I now religiously use a filament dryer, VAC bags and loose silica beads that I bag my self into DIY teabags and then redry in the oven.

I also make sure to dry new filament for 24hours before using it the first time…

Since I started doing this for PLA and PETG, many of my previous my print issues dissapeared…

Sometimes the best thing to do is just get out of their way…
