  • What hobby was easier to get into than you thought?

    Jump

  • There are some serious differences between a badly made loaf and a well done one though. You never stop learning. But yeah, it's easy to get something passable.

  • What's the best low-cost set of bike lights on Aliexpress?

    Jump

  • I've tried cheap lights and they end up being expensive because they break all the time. Get some Ixxon Core by Busch + Müller, they last for ages.

  • Flohmarkt is a Fediverse Marketplace

    Jump

  • Yeah, very nice. It will be tough to bootstrap since you need a critical mass of people who ideally live close together so that it's cheap and quick enough to deliver the items in question.

    I'll give it a try. Nothing to loose.

  • Why you should (probably not) run Slackware

    Jump

  • I've been using various GNU/Linux distro over the course of the last 20 years. When I started out, packages could never be too fresh and cutting edge. Nowadays I'm an admin and I administer way too many VMs. I dream of a system that I never need to update. While I know that's almost impossible if you want to be secure now might finally be the time I give slackware a try. I'm also old enough to be more curious about learning less but more in depth.

  • Libre office calc would do the trick also, every cell is a day for example

  • Why a gantt chart for a road trip though. There are not that many parallel things you usually do, no?

  • Yay! Germany is the second country having reached the #TaxTheRich European Citizen's Initiative minimum threshold! Only 5 more countries to go! Sign the initiative for your country now!

    Jump

  • I (and partner) just bought a house in that price range and we'll have to pay it off in the next 30 years. I feel very rich for this, even though my net worth is of course still waaay below that figure.

    If you can afford paying a house this price out of your pocket without a mortgage, that definitely sounds ultra-rich to me.

    That being said, I think putting in that exact number might not be the best strategy to get many people to sign. I'd have aimed a higher, maybe 5M€.

    People never like to be consider themselves rich, everyone always likes to think of themself as being part of the middle-class. Everyone who thinks they might at some point reach those 1.25M€ of net worth (even of mostly illusory) on top of business and residence might thinks it's too little as a threshold.

  • Very nice initiative. Please send the link to people you think might sign. Especially if they are located in countries that haven't reached the quorum yet.

  • I read that poppie seeds regularly contain too much opioid and have to be pulled from sales. Hemp rope on the other hand is made from the stem of the plant, not the flower, so does not or barely contains THC.

  • Awnings: a simple cooling tech we apparently forgot about

    Jump

  • What about some rollo blinds? We have them shut during daytime in summer in the rooms we don't use all the time. They also help sleep in the dark if that's your thing. The drawback is that they often create a weak spot wrt. Insulation.

  • Python has too many package managers

    Jump

  • Interesting. I might have a look. Actually I don't have a problem with speed though. I spend most time not dealing with pip and pip-tools but reading docs, programming and fixing the weirdest bugs

    Jump

  • Pip-tools!

  • I want to want new keyboards but I can't move on from this one

    Jump

  • Then just keep it and stop buying keyboards for no reason.

  • Inline filament drying prototype

    Jump

  • Sorry, I completely didn't read all of your comment. You're right about resistance but then again the filament won't need to touch the enclosing coil at a large surface. In the usual bowden tubes, you have a lot of contact surface between tube and filament but this would not need to be the case in the drying coil. In the end it would all depend on the application. I'm not interested in very high speed printing (yet) because my machines are all pretty slow :).

  • Inline filament drying prototype

    Jump

  • You "just" need a longer distance inside the drying chamber. This could be achieved by coiling up the space where the filament travels through and guide hot and dry air through that space, ideally from the outlet towards the inlet. That air could maybe be pulled from the hotend cooler.

    Jump

  • Argh finally someone tries the obvious solution. I was already considering it but was demotivated since it seemed so obvious and nobody seemed to have done it before.

    This device could also probably be printed in PLA. I can't wait until I get my lab power supply so I can give this a try with a wire coil heater.

    Edit: you could even mount some PTFE tubing mounted below a heated bed and pass air through it. That way you could potentially get away without a heating element and re-use some power usually lost.
