What realistic tech do you think we'll have 10 years from now in 2034? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Hate the idea of the former in a private setting, would like in a business setting. Absolutely adore the idea of directions (drove a car with a "heads up" display but it only integrated with the dreadful in-car navigation system and yet it was still awesome)... But player stats dangling over people's heads? That maybe my kid without AR glasses wouldn't be able to see and I could be the cool parent again? Awesome.

If you could have every answer to your history based questions, would you take them? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Nepotism. There's some story I heard about how he coach surfed in California until he got a contract, and I figured he must have SOME talent, then found out he was staying on Jamie Foxx's couch, so clearly some he knew someone...

Except unfortunately my 30 second Wikipedia fact check shows he didn't. He met Foxx because he was invited to be a guess on Foxx's show and must have made a good impression. He did make seemingly the hardway; he started out as a working musician working with other musicians and worked his way up. Didn't hurt that he got a positive review from Elton John early on, but the guy apparently has something.

Damn. I thought I figured it out...

Many years ago, long before the advent of cellular phones or even really GPS units, when doing road trips in convoy, the local ritual was "Are we there yet?" "Twenty minutes."

Said question, over the course of a few years, migrated from "we're off the highway and approaching our final destination" to as we were departing... But everyone was in on the joke.

I don't think the people waiting another two weeks are in on the joke.

Req: newcomer guide to SLA printing? (lemmy.today)

I just received an unexpected SLA printer from what I had assumed was a failed Kickstarter for the "Coolsiga FinderOne" or C1 or Classic. The manual is clearly intended for someone who has some context, but my past experience has been entirely FDM based.

I'm not claiming it's a good manual by any stretch of the imagination, nor am I confident that it will work -- but is there an "Dummies Guide to SLA Printers" I can read through to at least know what it's talking about?

First level printing too tall (lemmy.today)

Hi - Tenlog TLD3-Pro, printing with branx new Overture PLA+, printing an OpenSCAD exported STL sliced with Cura 5.7.1 (most recent as of yesterday).

I'm printing first level at 0.3mm thickness, but the print is irregularly too thick in height -- and not by a little bit, a lot. I've lowered the temperature to 190. I've physically lowered the bed to the point that the skirt didn't print, then raised it just barely back. I've reduced the flow rate to 85%, and I'm still getting the same results. I've lowered the build plate temperature, no change.

The skirt might be a tough high in spots, but I'm ending up with the first level of a prime tower that looks like this.

Any ideas? What else can I try?

Original NES Metroid was the second game I ever beat, after Super Mario Bros. 3.

The House GOP just gave Biden’s campaign a huge gift: Roughly 80 percent of House Republicans just lined up behind a plan to cut Social Security and ban all abortions in c/politics@lemmy.world

The Republicans will obliterate the fillibuster the day they want to, claiming the Democrats are forcing them to.

I'm currently conducting a lot of phone screens for a senior engineer position and I've definitely seen InterviewSort lately.

Oh, did you mean Brock "The Rapist" Turner? I heard he raped an unconscious woman because he's a terrible human being and also a rapist.

I pointed out to my partner that judging by the Grammys, God (WTF autocorrect why was that capitalized??) is really busy with people getting awards and doesn't have time for pesky things like violence and privation.

A platypus? in c/memes@lemmy.ml

Clearly it's a Flatypus.

Bad news. With inflation, it's not going to be twenty five years for the back half.

... Belgian style waffle or closer to Eggo? I'd be concerned about the deep pockets of the Belgian (non-Leige) waffles. Do you add any support material or stuffing, or just eggs?

Thank you, I'm planning for next weekend with my kid. =)
