If your automation breaks on day 1 of your vacation, you're now forced to spend some of your vacation fixing it. Hope you were checking email.

The bicyclist had an e-bike. 🤡

Yes, it's way worse. I made this mistake on a couple different glass beds of differing thicknesses, and each time, the print was so fused to the bed that it was impossible to remove without breaking the glass. One or two times, I completely shattered the glass. Another time, I went super slow and tried to get some warm IPA to wick under it, which sometimes helps prints release, and when I eventually got the print off, it still took a large chip of glass with it. It's not even "adhesion", it's like the carbon fibre diffuses into the glass and creates some kind of next-level bond, almost epoxy-like lol.

A few days ago I saw someone on a bicycle yell at a slow moped, "get out of the fucking bike lane with your motorcycle", and then rip past the moped at like 60 km/h. It was the most Toronto thing ever.

Printing CF-PETG on glass. It becomes one with the buildplate.

It's also worth mentioning that sockets aren't a real layer, because they're just an API at the OS level (they're an abstraction to let application developers use TCP/UDP/etc.). ALSO, in some interpretations, everything above Layer 4 is debatably just the application layer. There's not necessarily a clean separation between the presentation layer and "application layer" in all applications. That said, the 7 layer model is still useful as a teaching too, but knowing these extra details will give you a more complete understanding (and be less confusing).

It shows how effective the whole "Albertan independence" campaign by US interlocuters is - it's a lose-lose for Canada either way because the reputational damage it will do to Alberta's economy. And all you need to do this kind of shit is some analysts, a Facebook troll farm, and some weak politicians.

I saw this last night and it was pretty good! Great performances by great actors, interesting themes, good sets, good pacing. Just a great horror film all around. A24 staffed the team with veteran horror producers and gave Kane Parsons everything he needed to succeed with this film, and he sure did. Really pleased to see the success this movie is getting.

Samurai Showdown is a decent fighter

I've gotta go see this. The only thing I saw from Curry Barker before was his Milk and Serial 1 hr movie he released for free on YouTube, which is awesome, so I was stoked when I saw he directed Obsession!

 

Looks fun 😈🍭

 

In a nutshell, the tiers are:

  • Product of Canada - Very best - Produced here and 98% of ingredients are from Canada.
  • Made in Canada - 2nd best - "Made in Canada means the last substantial transformation of the product occurred in Canada"

Others:

  • "Roasted and blended in Canada" to describe coffee since the coffee beans are always imported
  • "Distilled in Canada" to describe bottled water that was distilled in Canada
  • "Canned in Canada" to describe a food that was canned in Canada
  • "Processed in Canada" to describe a food which has been entirely processed in Canada
  • "Prepared in Canada" to describe a food which has been entirely prepared in Canada
  • "Packaged in Canada" to describe a food which is imported in bulk and packaged in Canada

I'm thinking about moving my router to be a VM on a server in my homelab. Anyone have any experience to share about this? Any downsides I haven't thought of?

Backstory: My current pfSense router box can't keep up with my new fibre speeds because PPPOE is single threaded on FreeBSD, so as a test, I installed OpenWRT in a VM on a server I have and using VLANs, got it to act as a router for my network. I was able to validate it can keep up with the fibre speeds, so all good there. While shopping for a new routerboard, I was thinking about minimizing power and heat, and it made me realize that maybe I should just keep the router virtualized permanently. The physical server is already on a big UPS, so I could keep it running in a power outage.

I only have 1 gbps fibre and a single GbE port on the server, but I could buff the LAN ports if needed.

Any downsides to keeping your router as a VM over having dedicated hardware for it?

 

Makes zero sense. The provincial government should stick to provincial matters instead of trying this dumb populist play to win rural votes by sticking their fingers into municipal matters.

I'll just say it - it's a Russian propaganda community. Is there any reason this community needs to exist on Lemmy.ca? Is there a rule against blatant astroturfing / propaganda / misinformation? I don't think the 5 rules in the sidebar are going to be enough to stop an army of trolls:

No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, > or xenophobia. Be respectful. Everyone should feel welcome here. No porn. Use the NSFW tag when needed. No Ads / Spamming. Bot accounts need to be flagged as such in their settings.

Maybe time to get ahead of it?

 

The 2TB is on sale too. All sizes keep going up and down on price, with this being the ATL. This was on sale for this price at the start of the week, then it went up to like $95, so who knows what the real regular price is.

 

I preordered a Seasonic Vertex PX-1200 (aka. 1200P, Platinum) back in January and Seasonic told me the Vertex series would be widely available that month. It's now July and while the Gold (GX series) Vertex PSUs have been released, there's no signs that the P series ever shipped.

Anyone have any idea what's up with that? Are they actually going to ship or are they going to cancel the product line?
