I’m waiting for the 2025 model (with a rear wiper) to hit the used market, in case my 2019 Kona needs to be replaced at some point. Though I will miss the turning lights.

8.5 GWh / 85 MW = 100 hours, or around 4 days. If they can build it cheap enough, this is the kind of battery we would need to replace nuclear for dealing with the day-to-day variability of renewables.

Will the Mediatek modules also support VESA Adaptive Sync, or will they have fixed frame rate on AMD cards?

STEP is at least marginally better than STL, because it can represent stuff like circles, instead of just a mesh.

It exports as F3D (probably readable by future versions of Fusion) and STEP (standard but with less fidelity) by default.

https://github.com/aconz2/Fusion360Exporter lets you bulk export all of your projects to local storage.

There is some good stuff in this release. Go to Preferences > GUI and check “Show sidebar collapse/expand button” + “Settings in non-modal window”. Now you can put the Preview and Print Settings windows side-by-side, and see the result of every change immediately. This also requires “Background processing”, but that’s been available for ages.

all the features you know and love from things up the tree

Did OrcaSlicer ever bring back the option to slice automatically when changing settings? It’s called “Background processing” in PrusaSlicer.

Beginning with Firefox 127, users will be prompted to grant MV3 host permissions as part of the install flow (similar to MV2 extensions).

Hooray! Previously Firefox MV3 extensions had to include a custom button in the UI to prompt the user for host permissions at runtime. It generally made more sense to stay on MV2 than switch from a 2-click to a 6-click install procedure.

A VPN encrypts traffic between your device and the VPN server, and any packet on that path includes your IP address. So anyone attempting to decrypt your VPN traffic can trivially distinguish your packets from other users of the VPN server.

So your threat model assumes an actor with a quantum computer capable of breaking RSA, but not a regular computer capable of filtering by IP address?

So that’s what a plumbus is for.

Worth noting: “Visible includes mobile hotspot with unlimited data at speeds up to 5Mbps.”

I was recently at a party with a SNES connected to a noisy channel-3 RF modulator because the TV couldn’t switch to its composite input via the front panel buttons, and they didn’t have the remote. I wandered the house until I found a universal remote, then programmed AUX to match the TV and switched inputs. Just things you learn in the '90s.

I just see Rick Astley’s face with a play button. The main issue is that modern browsers disallow playing sound without user interaction.

See pictures 3, 5, and 6 in the gallery. The perfect hexagon shape seems to be artificial.

If you ever want to build one, just remember bullets don’t like going around corners.

Seems risky, because people don’t expect chocolate to need refrigeration.

This is a tragedy, I mean it!
