A dubious idea I have about cutting curved dovetails so a box would look like an impossible dovetail box, but would in fact have the top open on an arc rather than a diagonal slide like most impossible dovetails.
The axis of rotation is the left corner, where there's a green line.
@smellsofbikes did you end up creating using the revolve tool? Or did you make a cut tool and use booleans? What was your approach that required math? I hope between FreeCAD and Fusion, I’d love to use FreeCAD alone but I find as a newbie Fusion is way more forgiving.
The Helldivers 2 furore is bonkers. If you missed it, Sony, seemingly against wishes of the dev studio, pushed to add a mandatory PSN Network sign-in months after launch on one of their biggest, most popular games on PC, and not only did the community revolt (dropping review score into the teens), but the game is now pulled from 177 storefronts and Steam are issuing refunds (as PSN only works in certain countries). The studio has told players to make their voices heard
@stroughtonsmith I would like to congratulate this weeks MVP for team #enshittification , Sony Interactive Entertainment, for their successful enshittification of one of the most well launched and highly praised gaming IPs released in the last decade. Well earned boys, well earned! 👏👏👏🚽🏅🏆💩. Way to be a beacon for enshittification everywhere Sony, we can smell your efforts from miles away!

@tehstu@pluralistic the literary equivalent to my steam library grows…. Maybe we will call it a literature library or how about book library? I like the sound of it.
@Resister I don’t know where the photo is from, but just want to add context. There are two people using cellphones, despite the black and white aged look, these are young people who are alive and young now! I am ashamed we are not doing more to improve the world for those growing up in it, these are not kids who have grown up and become jaded and swung to the right in their old age. These are kids suffering through today’s world and protesting against it, fight on!
What I find astonishing about Nikki Haley is that anyone has ever taken her seriously. She’s always been a say-anything, word salad shooter who got a pass because she was one of the fiew successful GOP women. With only one or two exceptions forced on her, she’s always been shallow, trite, and cowardly political hack. History has already forgotten her.
I did the thing where I half took my jeans off to have a lazy wank, but I am so hungover and sleep deprived that I now cannot work out how to put them back on, and taking them fully off seems impossible too. Maybe I’ll just live like this forever.
@xahteiwi@redford@mrtick@q3k absolutely brilliant, these guys are champions of democratization of technology. Even from an economics standpoint, artificial monopolization of technology and intentional kneecapping of your own product generates unsafe / inferior products, artificially inflates the value of your services, and only serves to illustrate the insecurity of your leadership and therefore degrades shareholder confidence. 1/?
@geekmomprojects are you gonna look for an x-ray and count the number of dense objects? Or are you gonna look for an MRI and count the number of holes in the machines housing? /s
