but seeing that little “6” in the corner of my browser always fills me with joy

That is the practical use.

The Firefox version now has feature parity:

The Volt also contains a gasoline-powered generator, which would be really useful if you could connect it to your house.

Hi there, I am definitely the real ChatGPT. Wanna kill all humans?

It's more like 3 really wide pixels.

I haven't had the courage to run executable code from P2P networks since the early 2000s. Even then it was probably a bad idea.

 

A few weeks ago, Lemmy started using Service Workers, which Chrome associates with an origin (e.g. https://lemmy.world/) instead of a specific tabId.

IPvFoo had been ignoring these requests, which resulted in a lot of missing data. I just pushed v2.7 to the Chrome Web Store, so Lemmy should show a 4/6 again when it's published in a day or two.

The old version still sort of works if you Ctrl-Reload the page.

chrome : chromium :: vscode : vscodium

That's a good pun. Clearly the authors have mastered the second hardest problem in computer science.

Google is at fault here for creating the software-defined garbage, but they're not literally selling the products, are they?

AOL came on floppies originally, but the quality was so poor that you could barely rewrite them.

if we all started counting in base12 too

You could start by calling it twelve instead of 12.

So 1/2 ft, 1/3 ft, 1/4ft and 1/6 ft all have a whole number of inches

The same is true if you start with 300 mm instead of 1 foot.

Though dozenal numbers with a corresponding dozenal metric system would be very convenient, if you ignore the enormous cost of switching.

 

I had been using ai.com for months, as a convenient way to reach https://chat.openai.com/. Now it redirects to an Elon Musk website.

Presumably this means the domain was never controlled by OpenAI in the first place.

 

I had some missing LEGO bits, so I found the components on ldraw.org, converted to STL with LDView, and butchered them together with Fusion360.

In this case, I merged 3 parts into one, so I'd only have to deal with 1 interface instead of 5. The sanding probably made it worse.

Recently I browsed Thingiverse and Printables for models to improve the cable management on my Ender 3 S1. Here's what I decided to print:

This cable chain makes the ribbon cable fold toward the rear instead of the left, saving lots of desk space. I printed 16 chain links to reach z=270. See the original model for more photos.

This extruder cable holder (V03.1 is better) fits over the existing cable holder and keeps the ribbon vertical to reduce strain. In Klipper, I reduced my stepper_x position_max from 249 to 241 to prevent bumping the frame on the right.

I noticed some alternatives that route the cable in front of the frame, but they seem incompatible with a rear-folding chain. Some designs route a chain all the way to the head assembly, but I don't want unnecessary mass there.

Next I plan to print strain relief for the bed heater cable.

Benchy floats! (lemmy.world)

The #3DBenchy model usually capsizes in water, but I found that with the right slicer settings, it will actually float upright: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6076719

I see that lemmy.ml is the only major instance currently reachable over IPv6. When will lemmy.world join the modern internet?
