I remember defending it online against a bunch of Linux users and I got told that the UAC prompt is overbearing while having to type your password is fine because it’s just “muscle memory”.

Same but tea.

Someone will probably shoot me down for this but I actually find ChatGPT good for explaining concepts to me. Especially when I just want a high level understanding of a concept as I try to understand another one without getting too bogged down. A lot of Google results go into way too much detail.

I don’t fucking care, I want woolly mammoths and dodos.

The difference between each generation of consoles is getting less and less. The latest jump doesn’t really give you anything the previous gen didn’t give you, it just has sharper graphics. The graphics aren’t even that much better.

I’ve seen this on a few sites. They aren’t even allowed to make rejecting cookies more difficult than accepting them but right now the legal people are trying to educate before they starting enforcing these rules. I expect the lawyers at the Mirror know that this is illegal but think they can get away with it.

All those things like having to “customise” your cookies to turn them all off, and “legitimate interest” is all illegal under the rules but they’re trying their luck.

I’m a PC gamer but my wife got me a Switch for Christmas because she knew I wanted to play some Mario Kart. The 1st party stuff is pretty expensive and doesn’t go on offer much (as long as you only use digital stores like me). Other stuff can be pretty cheap though, I’ve got Limbo, Inside, Civilization VI, Torchlight II, and more that I can’t remember, for like £2 each on offer. There’s lots more that regularly comes up as less than £10.

I had the same problem but it can get so humid here that I’m drying my filament every day.

What kind of image do Volvo drivers have where you live? Here Volvos are just seen as reliable but boring.

Are there sites out there tracking these things? If a company didn’t do this I certainly wouldn’t be noticing.

Every superpower is currently in a race to mine the natural resources. A lots gonna happen in the next ten years and I doubt much of it will be good for the average African.

Your provider will just see encrypted traffic (mostly), so yes it will provide protection.

Pterodactyls aren’t dinosaurs?

When I set up my Amazon devices there was an option for it to save my WiFi details but I always declined.

I can’t speak for the new stuff because I’m using an old Prusa clone that’s years old now. I’ve heard good things about Bambu stuff.

I can’t answer everything because I don’t make models myself, but don’t buy a 3D printer. Getting it set up and calibrated takes ages, as well as the learning curve. Find a service online, you send them your file and they print it and send it back. PLA is the most common material for printing and I expect it would be fine here, I haven’t really used anything else and I have no problems. You can just make the plastic thicker to make it stronger.

The painting part should be fine but you’ll probably have to use a primer. Get a few prints so you can make mistakes.

Just find an online printing service and they should be able to answer a lot of your questions.

I used to work in a school where the English head was a total Mac fanboy and kept trying to get us to buy him one. Eventually he just used his budget to buy one himself (the budget that was supposed to be used to buy the kids useless stuff likes books and learning material). It just sat in their staff room completely useless and gathering dust because it wasn’t compatible with all the systems that we were using to manage the network (as he’d been warned). Two years after buying it somebody went in there and installed Windows XP on it (this was a while ago) and finally it started getting used as much as the other cheap PCs that were a fraction of the price.

A lot of this CCTV is just in shops and stuff, not necessarily the government. Not much you can do about that, it’s just culture.

Maybe some setting to do with the size of the extruder? What happens if you increase the size of your bed?

This can’t feasibly be done over the internet. An IP address must be unique as that’s how it finds it out of billions of other devices. There are situations where the same IP can route to different locations but that’s regional and way beyond what you’re trying to achieve here. It’s how something like 8.8.8.8 works without sending all the requests to a single location.

If your server is sending out traffic as 1.2.3.4 and then tries to send the encrypted traffic to the client at 1.2.3.4 the traffic would either be routed back to itself or the client would receive the plaintext traffic meant for the server.
