We can reliably screen for HIV (all blood donations are) why the fuck are homosexuals discriminated against over this.
except that the tests are (per cdc) up to 90 days late in detection. So you may get infected and spend 3 months testing negative.
And judging by OPs being german, where the rule (admittedly only since 2021) is “you may only have fucked one guy for the last 4 months”, this seems like being on the safe side, but not completely excessive to me.
I’ve donated plenty of times, because it makes sense that there is no other way to save lives than to donate.
On the other hand, I’ve been wondering for years, that while I’ve been told a million times that “blood reserves are low - donate blood now!”, I’ve not ever heard that a single person died due to lack of available blood.
Why would something like that not be reported if you want to motivate people to donate?
My personal guess is that this comes because “lack of avaiable blood donations” isn’t a valid cause of death, the cause of death is whatever else (gun shot wound, knife severed artery / complication during surgery etc), thus it’s hard to pinpoint. Also Doctors may try to “save” blood, when they know little is available, and people may die that may have lived if they had gotten (more) blood, but also they may not have and it is hard to tell.
sorry to disagree.
my steam deck does not fit (comfortably, maybe if I were willing to force it more) in the case, with the Nub attached to the back.
I love the Idea, and I’ll keep the parts I printed to use it when I have explicit use to attach the deck somewhere. But I don’t think the attachment will just live there
Will it fit in the case with the nub on the back?
idler tension.
depending on your print, if you want a tiny nozzle it seems likely it is some detailed figurine of some sort. maybe a miniature.
when you print very tiny structures, but retract a lot, your drive gears can chew through your filament pretty quickly, because the retraction happens over the same bit of filament over and over again (because actual extrusion is so little).
Interestingly, at first glance, this may be possible with the nextruder as well.
Words like this is a spit in the face of humanity.
was Israel not attacked?
I genuinely have issues trying to discern the propaganda from the facts.
from what I gathered, I believed that Israel just took some land on which other people were living ~70 years ago, displacing these people.
Those peoples didn’t like being displaced and tensions grew, until attacks happened on Israel, to which Israel had mixed responses with violence and suppression, rinse, repeat and escalate for decades.
Now Israel had it with attacks from Palestine, and is going with the only chance it sees at maybe stopping it, which is a very violent war, presumably with the target of breaking the hope of resistance for Palestine (probably with lessons from the US interventions of the last 50-ish years where more civilized approaches failed)
If this (very simplified) view were correct, it seems that they are acting out of self defense, at least if you accept the existence of Israel, because if not they are the aggressors for occupying the space in the first place.
why can I not install it?
first time i just get the share button on droid-ify
/e: installig directly from github was no issue
Curious if this will fix my one issue I have with Finamp.
I have some quite large playlists I’d like to listen on shuffle. Finamp doesn’t do that well at all. (It seems it only shuffles what it has cached or something, as it seems to shuffle “only” the first 100 or so songs. of 3000+)
Yes, most people are not interesting. True for Emi/Imi-gration as well as dating. And in both cases it’s tough to hear.
You largely can choose the provider of this service, but they will also choose you (or not).
And you can not refrain from the service while being in the community of those that don’t refrain. In practice there are (nearly) no places where the community as a whole chooses to refrain.
If you’re in a country with compulsory military service, make yourself interesting for other countries and leave.
Doesn’t seem to be a flattering angle.
front view doesn’t seem as bad (but still wide).
Compared to the F35 from a bad angle.
But the twin-engine design on both sides of the pilot (unlike a J20) will probably just make for a wider body as well.
I think that 3d printing is not food safe because of the layers.
One can decide for themselves if they want to take that risk, but commercially selling medical stuff with those issues would not be my cup of tea.
/e oops, replied to the Not instead of OP.
so I’m hoping we’re finally getting close to a version that’s a little more robust.
Well, the Ondsel team which (claims to? I don’t know) work closely with FreeCAD hoped in October 23 to maybe get Topological Naming done by February 2024 (FOSDEM 2024 is 03rd and 4th of February
We think that these goals are within reach and it should be possible to release FreeCAD 1.0 in time for the next FOSDEM. Here’s our thinking behind this goal.
Since FreeCAD still seems to be in the beginning stages of phase 3, I doubt they’ll make that target.
Well, all of these companies intentionally try to lock the users into them, by making their files as unreadable as possible.
No Company wants to lose access to all of their models.
There are also still a lot of QoL issues with the GUI and no real attempt to bring in influences and widgets from direct modeling. FreeCAD is pure of heart and pure of thought, but I’m not sure I’m quite there, though I can at least imagine it now
fyi, there is now ondsel
based on FreeCAD, their release introduction reads:
So our thinking was: we should focus on a polished user experience and features that are essential to professional use. Let’s build something we feel good about recommending it to someone working on a deadline. And let’s build a service for vaulting and collaboration.
…
Our primary objective is to provide polish and sorely missing features — that’s a large part of the added value. We’ve made big and small changes in the upstream project, but the four vital projects for us have been toponaming, integrated assembly workbench, UX/UI, and collaboration.
So working exactly on what most consider FreeCADs weaknesses I’d say
Unfortunately toponaming is still not done for either. That will be a huge leap in usefulness for me.
(fixes models breaking when their topology changes)
Infill has massively diminishing returns. I don’t think 100% is required. Usually it’s much better to increase the number outer layers.
That said, depending on the cost scaling, the possibly positive effects of extra mass, and how much I want to avoid a second attempt, massive objects can make some sense.
PLA becomes brittle with moisture (from your hands and/or air). I would recomment PETG / ASA / ABS (ascending order).
Yes, basically all CAD and slicers (3d-printer software) can mirror. PrusaSlicer for example can mirror and then save to stl again.
It’s not necessary.
At best it’s because this way they don’t have to differentiate between networks, and make the system a bit easier for Bambi themselves.
At worst they want to lock you into an ecosystem they want to build and steal a ton of models people make.
I don’t think it’s necesarrily nothing, as sending all of that data is so comprehensive it should be communicated clearly by bambu, and it seems (but I don’t know!) That it isn’t.
Sometimes you might want/need help and don’t want to send everything.
For a lot of stuff partial gcode / sensor data around the issue should suffice for example.
But it sounded way worse before the clarification, when I understood that it was sending those logs all the time.
The open source license issues will be interesting, but probably irrelevant. We already can be rather sure that they already are in violation with BambuStudio and no one wants to spend the money to do anything about it.
I wonder what the effective radius of these things was (and what it wad expected to be)
low amount of explosives + low density shrapnel may have made this basically a touch-distance weapon.
