I think the sentiment was that the mentally ill would be more susceptible to misinformation.

Maybe a bit of a gross simplification, but would you say this is analogous to something like k9s for Kubernetes? It looks handy, to say the least.

This is incredibly cool, but I feel like it skims over a pretty important hurdle as well. It says that a good chunk of cost is saved by 3d printing the lenses which can be expensive, but I can also hazard a guess that the kind of printer t

This all makes sense, thank you for all of the info!

This is super cool! I would love to learn more about diving into hardware hacking like this, but I feel like the learning curve is basically a hockey stick. Do you have any advice or recommendations for someone like me?

Not only does Bambu sell parts, but there’s a pretty healthy market of third party parts as well. Saying these printers are irreparable is plain false.

I rarely print multi material in the same print just because of the filament wastage, but damned if the AMS isn’t worth it for not having to mess around rethreading the filament for filament changes. I know that’s a luxury “nice to have”,

I absolutely love this, but I hate websites like this so much, especially on mobile. I’m haphazardly scrolling hitting breakpoints trying to get to content that either lags well behind my gestures to animate a device spinning around, or zi

Does anyone have more examples of articles written in this perspective? Regardless of my experience level I love diving through “ELI(a mediocre engineer)” type explanations as I either learn another piece that wasn’t completely clear, or g

Hero U was so close but ultimately such a grindfest that I ended up souring on it a bit but it was still the closest a game has come I think.

That’s the thing! Even if the city had plans of their own, I’d be willing to bet if this guy came in with any sort of backing beyond “well I’ve got my own ideas!” in the way of actual (architectural/engineering) drawings, (time/f

Those are all great ideas! That’s the kind of focused “make your investments help you towards your goals” implementations that I see lacking in the overall approach of the person in the article, though. Those _would_ be good ideas, but in

With the exception of a handful of core modules isn’t that exactly what Nextcloud does?

As an aside to this, are there any documentaries or clips or things to read about "retro" console piracy that necessitated something like the lockout chip? I mean at this point I know about flashcarts but I dont know a thing abou

I havent used the AVP but I remember feeling the excitement of being able to watch a movie in a theatre all to myself with the Oculus Rift all fade away in the first half an hour with the loss in clarity. I have zero doubts that the compar

Love the idea of this, wish it had a Docker Container to make deployment easier.

I've yet to encounter a cutesy name for an organization's employees that isn't cringey, but ooof, when it's used in layoffs it feels so tone deaf. I really wish the name fad would pass.

I see that lazygit is listed as inspiration for this project. As a lazygit user myself I'd be curious as to what was lacking from lazygit to warrant an entirely new project, as I've found it to be incredibly useful.

Really appreciate you posting this! I didn't really watch Buffy but the video did a fantastic job of highlighting the issues.

Im not a real estate agent but i feel like that would more or less immediately pay for itself in resale value, if that makes sense. In looking at houses, if it has a space like that thats an immediate frontrunner for me.

This seemed great, until I popped $5 on it yesterday, made one query, then came back to it this morning and I think it's been "HackerNewsHugged" as it's incredibly slow, and my $5 credit has vanished .

I think it's interesting to consider the effect of something like Doordash or Uber et al. As a consumer ordering from a restaurant, if I'm visiting the restaurant I'm encouraged to overpay by 20-25% and I'd say that th

I’m trying to think about what the authors unspoken “better approach” could’ve been, because I’m with you—that doesn’t strike me as remarkable at all, it seems like it’s the way things have always been. Maybe they were trying to argue that

Humbly suggesting “Automation” ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automation_(video_game) ) for the cars category, because not only is the engineering side of things relatively in depth, you can export your designs and dr

The “Death to Pixels” shader pack for Retroarch has done an awesome job of tricking my nostalgia brain when playing old games. ( https://forums.libretro.com/t/cyberlab-death-to-pixels-shade... ) I wonder if these are mo

I use the Athom one also, and putting a reed switch in the fully closed state, as well as in the fully open state allows me to reasonably determine where the door is. Might not be enough for your case, but for me it was enough to know that

You ever walked a mile carrying two armfuls of groceries? That’s brutal without a car, and without public transit nearby, that makes it incredibly inconvenient and difficult to have food in the fridge. Get outta here with your feigned sar

I wish SmartTube was able to connect to Invidious instances. As Google is getting more and more aggressive against ad blockers, I’d like to be able to put one more “insurance” barrier in place in case they end up start banning accounts.

I had one. It is the one car I’ve had that I truly miss. So many clever little features that made it an absolute joy to own and drive. Slow as absolute molasses, but still such a wonderful experience. So spacious for the size, with thing
