@SeanMombo You should be intentionally getting heavier phone cases.

You should be brickmaxxing

I have a 10,000 MaH battery inside my phone case, I can run on full brightness with the GPS and Bluetooth going full blast all day long

@kitten_beloved @cremieuxrecueil It's the same reason we launch every other comms satelite, it's just removing the middle man. So instead of going from space to the ground to seatle and back, you just go to space and back.

Also Elon is probably willing to eat a lot of cost because it will help space internet

@kitten_beloved @cremieuxrecueil Proximity. Space is 60 miles from everywhere every 90 minutes.

I don't know how to say this without sounding like an ad, but have you tried evaporust? It's expensive chemical magic, but it's chemical magic nonetheless

There is no real rust, I dont think I can get them better without stripping the phosphate coat here.

Made in the late 1960s up in Michigan. Truly incredible casting & finish machining! 😍😍

@Batenswytch I would recommend not bringing any children. As part of the problem at the time I can attest it can be a very difficult drive.

@i2cjak Don't worry, Gainesville is in the middle of trying to sell and renovate that entire section.

It's called Green Street

@blind_via * only works for an hour

@sleepyslim @FreddyLA7 You can even see "Helen, Ga" on one of the tubes lmao

[Patrick @patrickdoddboy]

@sleepyslim @FreddyLA7 Dawg that's the tourist tubing in helen. Don't you see how shallow and rocky it is?

They are tubing in clean mountain water.

Great rundown, I needed this like a year ago

## Thermal Cameras: Essential Information for Beginners

Thinking about purchasing a thermal camera? Here's what you need to know.

**The most important factor is resolution.** Thermal sensor resolution typically comes in these options:
382x288 Pixels
640x512 Pixels
1280x1024

That haskell video really got my noggin joggin

@HSVSphere have you looked at reversible computing at all?

It conserves information, and as a consequence takes basically no time to compute and doesn't produce waste heat from information being destroyed.

@patrickdoddboy @ThePrimeagen I'm scared that Haskell is going to be successful.

@Ekaeoq @marcospereeira The "cad from prompt" stuff is already getting a lot better, but yeah its gonna take more time before anyone is vibe engineering (safely)

[Patrick @patrickdoddboy]

@Ekaeoq @marcospereeira Spatial* not special. Wish there was an edit for comments

[Patrick @patrickdoddboy]

@Ekaeoq @marcospereeira I think there will come a time when the AI is good enough to spit out formed Gcode, but it's gonna need a while.

They can already spit out compiled machine code, but Gcode is special and a lot more like an SVG, which AI notoriously struggles with right now

[Patrick @patrickdoddboy]

@Ekaeoq It probably wouldn't be that hard to print a vacuum table for yours. You will lose a little bit of vertical workspace and *must* use MDF as a spoilboard, but it makes tool holding so much easier

[Patrick @patrickdoddboy]

@Ekaeoq @marcospereeira You manually write gcode to force the machine to do things it "can't" do

Full control gcode for printers is a good example, there are prints that wouldn't be feasible to make in a slicer like the pin challenge

Back in school i had to manually write gcode for a hotwire cutter

[Patrick @patrickdoddboy]

@Ekaeoq There are a lot of gotchas and it's easy to forget things like "once this cut completes the entire middle isn't supported by anything" and then it chatters, or worst case gets launched.

[Patrick @patrickdoddboy]

@marcospereeira @Ekaeoq Claude for gcode is currently useless to the point of being dangerous.

You should *never* run unvetted raw gcode that wasn't generated specifically for your machine
