I think X led the way in robotic hellscape innovation that's now being adopted by Reddit.

Oh cool, I did not know about this

I'm glad I deleted my content on the way out.

You are so right.

I have a few Anker 313 wireless charging stands around the house. They work great with iPhones. Due to the design, they can't charge an AirPods case without an adapter to lift the case to the right spot. That is the purpose of this model. I don't have the old style non-Pro AirPods, but this will probably also work with that wireless charging case. It prints well with 10% infill PLA.

Pellet Stove Cleaning Brush (www.printables.com)

I own a pellet stove that has a heat exchanger with extra long cast iron “fingers” (see photo). This needs to be cleaned regularly. The challenge is, a standard brush attachment's bristles are too short to do this properly. This vacuum attachment solves that problem. It fits a Loveless ash vacuum but should also fit other ash vacuums as the hose size is pretty standard. Print this in PETG for strength.

The resulting print is designed to accept a length of bristles cut from a CNC dust shoe brush with 70 - 100mm bristles (choose whatever you need). One of those is enough to make several brushes. I used a small amount of urethane glue to attach the bristles (mist lightly with water first).

I did that spontaneously almost a decade ago. Alcohol is overrated and I do regret the decision. If one misses the flavor or other aspects, be advised there are now many excellent non-alcoholic drinks available (beer, wine, and even liquor approximations). Increasingly, I'm finding them available at restaurants and bars.

To the supreme court they go... I think we can predict the voting there down to the individual justice.

It's a serious problem. Saint-Gobain significantly polluted the groundwater in southern New Hampshire. Job done, they are exiting the state looking for greener pastures to pollute.

I agree with the OP on this. Tie them up defending against an attack that will never happen. NATO is a defensive alliance.

 

Recent screenings of the movies "Barbie" and "Oppenheimer" have been marred by disruptive behavior from audience members. Incidents include individuals being naked in the theater, drunken outbursts, cellphone use, and exhibitionism. The trend of unruly behavior extends beyond movie theaters, with instances of disruptions at concerts, Broadway shows, and even on airplanes. Experts suggest that a combination of recent collective traumas, cellphone culture, and a desire for constant stimulation may be contributing factors. Movie theater policies and enforcement are being relied upon to address the issue, but some argue that disruptive behavior is becoming normalized in public spaces.

 

Washington Post: Americans waste $10 billion each year on name-brand ink. So we tested low-cost options including remanufactured cartridges, ink injection kits — and even making our own.

My advice: get a mono laser printer. Printing is handy but relatively infrequent for a lot of people these days. If that's your use case, mono laser is the way to go. Toner does not dry out or go bad.

Hey Privacy Community, all of the reddit craziness let me to discover Redact which really led me down a rabbit hole of deleting lots of old posts... everywhere.

Unsurprisingly, Facebook is a problem. Redact deleted lots of content for me, great, but I still have a lot of photos in my "Mobile Uploads" folder. It's not possible to delete this folder. Their Help pages say I should be be able to delete individual photos, but I promise you, that's not an option in my UI. Am I missing something? I'd appreciate any tips!
