Just mashing together shape primitives and Thingiverse parts in TinkerCAD is entirely underrated. It’s still primarily what I use unless I need particularly curvy corner.

Fusion360 and FreeCAD are the CAD versions of Photoshop and GIMP (if Photoshop had a restricted free tier). They’re both trying to be a legit piece of CAD software, so there’s a bit of a learning curve coming from TinkerCAD. I found it easier to “feel my way around” Fusion360’s UI. FreeCAD has a layer of, “How did Open Source devs decide to be different here?” on top of learning something new.

The internet used to scream at you when you went online. Now it’s the reverse.

Honey, do.

“One day I’m going to be a 70 year old man named Zac.”

Which programming language is this a book cover for?

I think you’re dramatically overestimating how much people want to discuss politics with a stranger who slides into their mentions pointing out logical fallacies.

This is pretty typical for universities. They don’t want the airwaves clogged, doubling up NAT can lead to networking wonkiness, and they don’t want you giving university network access to unauthorized folks with an open AP.

When you say VR streaming, you just mean wireless from your PC to the headset, right? There’s a chance you could do that with an offline wireless router if the VR experiences you’re looking to play are single player.

Understood. Have a pleasant day.

Unfortunately most of the PCB fab companies only print off PCBs in at least batches of 5. I bought enough parts to make two cart readers and split the costs with a friend to help drive the price down into the low hundreds.

I don’t know which number you were looking at when you saw the Sanni was “so expensive”. You can get an assembled Sanni v3 for about $150 online. https://savethehero.builders If you join their Discord, there’s also folks selling Sanni v5 DIY part kits for $110-130 depending on what add-ons you go for. https://store.starshade.dev/product/oscr-hw5-complete-kit-diy It’s still a pretty penny, but significantly less than some of the $250 pre-assembled stores online.

I wasn’t able to find anything definitive online, but its specs and functionality sound pretty close to BennVenn’s Joey N64 cart reader/writer. https://bennvenn.myshopify.com/products/joeyn64-cart-flasher

I can’t help much on the power draw side of this question, but one thing to look out for with a UPS is some sort of communication option. (Usually NUT over ethernet, but there are some USB options too.) Most modern UPS brands will have a plugin you can install on your Raspberry Pi and Mini PC that allows your UPS to signal, “Hey, I’ve got 3% of battery life, you actually need to gracefully shut down now.” It’s mostly useful for NAS applications with spinning drives, but it could help save your Pi’s SD card potentially.

It’s a pretty standard feature these days, but the cheapest of the cheap will omit it.

I wanted to make something a little indulgent this weekend. These burritos are stuffed with chopped brisket, home fries with poblano and onions, scrambled eggs, and topped with homemade white queso, guac, and roja salsa. It was a fun mashup up diner vibes and Tex-Mex smokiness.

What are you talking about?

For a bit more context, this is the fan project “Bloodborn Kart” with its IP serial numbers filed off.

Haha, oh wow, I had somehow missed that. Brian’s done great work with Carrot.

CARROT’s big premium selling point is letting you pick which weather data provider the app references. Darksky/Weatherkit went through a perceived slump after their acquisition, so folks turned to sites like https://www.forecastadvisor.com/ to figure out who was providing the most accurate data in their region.

Other than that, it offers up a few more detailed views, push notifications, and other UI tweaks. They’re one of those companies that tries jumping onboard with things like Apple Watch apps or home screen widgets ASAP.

You probably don’t need CARROT, but if you don’t like the stock Weather app, CARROT probably has something for you.

It’s still surreal to see OpenAI’s need for training data be so vast that they casually developed and open sourced a generational leap in transcription technology just so that they could scrape online videos better.

Shout out to Steven Universe giving their main character a shield.

It’s a soup made with chicken broth, shredded chicken, tomatoes, onion, garlic, herbs, spices, and semi-submerged crispy corn products. They’re some authentic Mexican versions, and some incredibly TexMex versions. The black beans and corn put this firmly in the yeehaw territory, but it’s at least got some freshly toasted pasilla chiles and fried corn tortillas.
