Hm, most of the local 3d printing shops make it a big deal to print out this single tiny clip.

They either want me to wait a whole week to get it, or they want me to pay a minimum of about 80 dollars for a single clip, or they want me to make a bulk order.

I've never 3d printed. Is it really that big of a deal to print a tiny clip that we require this much time, money, and ceremony?

@JordiGH Should be straight forward... I can give it a go when I get home and see if there's anything weird about it, but it looks fine.

grimmy,
@grimmy@mastodon.social avatar

@JordiGH sure why not? I can send it to you if you like? It looks like $0.10 USD in plastic maybe, and my printers are currently idle so 🤷

grimmy,
@grimmy@mastodon.social avatar

@JordiGH probably like $4, but i can check that later too, if it's less than an ounce, which it most likely will be i can just use a forever stamp and a normal envelope.

I've sent 3d printed stuff via a normal envelope before, even with magnets attached, and they've gotten there fine. Can't say the same thing about the envelope, but maybe wrapping it in a sheet of paper will help? Whatever, should be fine ;)

@JordiGH Yeah this should be fine.. default settings with 15% infill..

@JordiGH oh, do you have a color preferences? I have... basically all the colors and then some 🤣

grimmy,
@grimmy@mastodon.social avatar

@JordiGH I can do orange, but it's not quick zapper orange 😄

I have all of the colors that bambu lab's offers for basic pla, and then a few colors for their other pla materials. https://us.store.bambulab.com/products/pla-basic-filament

@rasterweb have you ever used lace as a spray paint stencil? Just curious, have a project where I might try it.

grimmy,
@grimmy@mastodon.social avatar

@rasterweb @mathiasx seems like lace would be hard without some sort of jig keeping it taut.

If you've ever found yourself missing the "good old days" of the , what is it that you miss? (Interpret "it" broadly: specific websites? types of activities? feelings? etc.) And approximately when were those good old days?

No wrong answers — I'm working on an article and wanted to get some outside thoughts.

@grimmy@mastodon.social avatar

@molly0xfff AOL chat rooms, yahoo games, learning core web protocols (ftp, http, smtp, etc) for the first time.. I'm sure there's more but that's probably enough 😅

@rasterweb so what you're saying is.. If i know you're going to a conference/whatever, I can get a booth, and you'll work it for free?

What if FTP had become as popular as HTTP?

grimmy,
@grimmy@mastodon.social avatar

@rasterweb ftp has always been too complicated as it general needed to use multiple ports. That said, gopher is making a resurgence and Gemini is a new contender too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gemini_(protocol)

Every time I get a text message from a politician asking for money I reply "Bruv, I just gave you money last week... did you spend it already!? We can't keep doing this. You may need to get a second job or cancel some of your streaming services."

Sometimes I miss reddit but then I see articles like "AI Is Poisoning Reddit to Promote Products" and I'm convinced it will only get worse.

@rasterweb they just need another "new user interface" and yeah it totally broke the way I used it and I can't seem to find an option to switch it back either...

I just picked up the salt shaker and tried to drink out of it. Guys, I have a Ph.D.

@elb I've done this on purpose on more than one occasion. But I of course do not have a prestigious degree.. 🤣

I really like the idea of . However, the available software systems just do NOT do it for me. My smart thermostat has been blinking that it cannot connect to my wi-fi for weeks, my is out-of-date because updating it is painful, my Z-Wave adapter is currently not functioning properly because somehow the adapter stack can't talk to it, ...

This is all a joke.

@grimmy@mastodon.social avatar

@elb Does your HA stuff have some weird dependency? I update mine constantly and the only issue is that i have to reboot it some times after the update for stuff to show up.

grimmy,
@grimmy@mastodon.social avatar

@elb ah gotcha. I'm not nearly that complicated. Although I need to update frigate before I can update its integration.

man cmake really is a box of surprises

grimmy,

@aras @barrelshifter I did learn cmake, and it was better than autotools for awhile, but then meson appeared and my build system woes disappeared!
