Judging by the length of those videos I'd guess they're AI imitators/content farms

I think helium314 keeps a fairly current version

It's the R that I can't figure out

Why is eOS trash?

Their base is starting to look pretty solid now though

I ended up just plugging it into a speaker we already had. It isn't ideal as I also used that speaker for my record player so I have to swap the cables over when I want to play a record but other than that it works.

The Voice PE is pretty good though (other than its speaker not being great) I haven't had any issue with dropped connections and the click wheel is really nice.

I don't think it is. In the UK its price and specs seem pretty on par with the Pixel 9a

Tbf even solidworks crashes when designing complex assemblies

I'm a junior and even I feel the same way, reading and understanding someone else's code not only takes me longer but is far less rewarding than just writing it myself. There's also the issue as a junior that if I read AI code with issues that maybe I don't notice or recognise, but it compiles fine, it could teach or reinforce poor practices that I may then put into my own work.

Starmer is a piece of shit

I had to stop reading this halfway through. It made me feel sick.

As a Jew I am deeply deeply ashamed for what is being done, supposedly in my name. As a Brit I am ashamed for what my government has enabled.

BricsCAD is pretty good on Linux

Has anyone got any recommendations for a small wired speaker that would be good to connect to the Voice Preview Edition. I'm really enjoying it, but just wish the audio quality could be better.

Also are there any other improvements that you can recommend I add to it?

 

FarmBot is an open source project aimed at making CNC farming accessible to as many people as possible.

 

RepRap is a project about democratising and decentralising manufacturing through low-cost open source 3D printers.

3D printers give communities the ability to repair items even when official replacement parts don't exist. They also allow people to produce small runs of custom parts, where more traditional manufacturing methods may be wasteful.

There are obviously issues with sustainability in the 3D printing community, primarily with material source, material recycling/composting, and waste. But even with these current issues, 3D printers provide a lot of utility and may have a place in our solarpunk future.

Amybo is a non-profit open source community project working on protein fermentation in an effort to reduce the carbon intensity of food production, as well as improve climate resilience as things like crop failures become more common.

The project is currently focussed on the low-cost distributed science aspect, but their website says they want biotechnologists, chefs, coders, creatives, engineers, enthusiasts, environmentalists, makers, medics, microbiologists, and nutritionists. So basically... Just lots of people.

They're still in the early stages but looks like a fun project to get involved in.
