Soon you will be BLT's...
  • Fried green tomatoes

    Sliced thin. But only thin enough that the tomato doesn’t bend when held by the edge.

    Bartered with cornmeal and fried and you’re in heaven.

    Just be sure to eat them hot since they don’t travel well.

  • Fuck up a book for me please
  • That’s what cliff notes are for. Explaining the background and context so you can better understand what you’re reading in, say, Hamlet.

    Not just simplifying it and removing potentially relevant material.

    For example in the example material:

    • They weren’t just younger. They were more vulnerable. That conveys a lot of meaning. Even the word “more” implies a current vulnerability.

    • Advice isn’t just something told or conveyed. It’s something given for the benefit of the recipient. I told my child to get milk isn’t the same as giving them advice about drinking milk that’s set out.

    • Turning over in my mind ever since -> I still think about is the closest it got to being right. Even then, though, turning over conveys a more meditation/consideration than just thinking about something.

  • Newborns fucking suck
  • Yeah. All the times people say “sleep when the baby sleeps” or “You must be exhausted”? It’s because we’ve been there.

    I will give one piece of advice. Alarms.

    Need to make a call or check on someone? Alarm.

    Dropping the baby off somewhere before work? Add an alarm (repeat if need be) to make sure the kids not in the car.

    Cooking dinner? Add an alarm to check that the stove is off.

    Super exhausted brain is rough and while it’s always a small chance it’s scary how quickly we can do something stupid or dangerous without realizing it.

    Personally I’ve thrown clothes in the trash and put trash in the laundry hamper (learned not to carry both at the same time) and locked myself out of the house for an hour (trusted neighbor got a copy of our house key after that one)

    Bonus tip: poison control is cool. Don’t be afraid to call when/if something happens. Kid got into teething tablets and ate them all? Not the first time they’ve heard of it and if there’s anything to be done they’ll tell you. They even checked back a little later just to be sure.

    Bonus tip 2: if you have somebody willing to help with laundry, house, etc take it. It feels weird but a lot of the people offering know exactly what you’re going through.

  • How to make a month go by as fast as possible other than sleeping
  • Audiobooks. Libby app for local library and countless audiobooks already covered by your library card.

    I’ve listened to/read so many books. Short ones that are 4 hours or so to entire series where each book is about 20 hours or so.

    Long drive? Audiobook. Yard work? Audiobook.

    I find myself looking forward to the mundane chores because it gives me an excuse to get back into whatever story/book I’m enjoying.

  • Is this a thing in any slicers?
  • Not natively no. What you’re looking for is this

    Achieve true 3D printing with non planar slicing Note: Check the update below

    Conical Slicing: A different angle of 3D printing

    Not something easily done with slicers and there are hacks to do things like this but nothing that works out of the box and it’s a tough challenge with various nozzles, toolheads, material shrink properties

    Edit: More recent update that could be of interest

    Non-planar 3D printing in a modern slicer thanks to the community

  • none slip surface.
  • I’ve had some luck with attaching silicone pie mat to prints that I wanted to have a grippy surface.

    Downside is it picks up any grime, dust, dirt easily. No biggie when you throw a silicone mat in the dishwasher, more of an issue when you can’t do the same with something 3d printed.

    Another consideration could be large furniture non slip pads. Something made for putting on the feet of a couch/sofa for example, cut to size?

  • I just realized all my teachers use ubuntu
  • Code and snippets to analyze data work well when you can send chunks of it to multiple servers (think analyzing the effect of weather patterns).

    Since a lot of that stuff is running on Linux (similar to cloud computing) it makes sense that people that write function/scripts/utilities would already be comfortable in that environment and use it as their daily driver.

  • Power Word: Scrunch

    [EFF] User Generated Content and the Fediverse: A Legal Primer

    www.eff.org User Generated Content and the Fediverse: A Legal Primer

    A growing number of people are experimenting with federated alternatives to social media like Mastodon, either by joining an “instance” hosted by someone else or creating their own instance by running the free, open-source software on a server they control. (See more about this movement and joining....

    I found this interesting and was wondering how some of the larger instances handle the issues they outline such as

    Copyright/DMCA Safe Harbor CSAM Law enforcement/warrants/info inquiries

    And not included (since it’s focus is on US legal issues) but I’m curious about would be other regulations such as EU user data retention
