Do you cheat in video games? in c/games@lemmy.world
[–] tonyn@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 days ago

I cheat in single player games to remove the drudgery of farming or grinding past a certain point.

Thank you! Makerlab is great. I have an X1 Carbon and can fully take advantage of this.

I bought a roll of 3M VHB tape 3 years ago, and it has come in so handy for all sorts of things. I haven't even used half the roll yet. Keep it in an airtight container or zip lock bag. It's perfect for this case.

How can I use the Hunyuan 3D 3.0 model? I've got decent hardware, can I run it on my own machine? If not, how would I go about using it?

I run a small social meeting site, and I have included functionality that watches for multiple blocks of the same user in relatively quick succession. This automatically bans the user from the site for a period of time. Maybe they could implement something like this. Of course, I also moderate my site, so there's that.

Weird WiFi connection problems that I can't explain in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] tonyn@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Try explicitly setting your DNS servers to either cloudflare (1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1) or google (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and see if that has any effect.

If that does not help, make sure you're getting a good signal from your router. Move your PC and router closer together for testing purposes to rule out wifi interference.

Troubleshooting issues like that are often a matter of ruling things out as best you can to track down the cause.

Recommend me a distro? (lemmy.ml)
 

I am considering moving away from Ubuntu, but I haven't tried other distributions for years. I started on Linux Mint Cinnamon back in 2012, but switched to Ubuntu when I built my current PC in 2020 because I wanted more up-to-date packages. Now I am faced with needing to replace my SSD which gives me reason enough to install a new distro. I have an AMD Ryzen 7 2700X with 32G of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060, so I would need something that plays nicely with nvidia. I routinely use libreoffice, digikam, gimp, virtualbox, bambu studio, sublime text, filezilla, thunderbird, minecraft, steam, Open WebUI and Stable Diffusion (Automatic1111). I liked Ubuntu because it was familiar, fairly easy to customize, and everything was kept fairly well up to date. I am not a big fan of snap, and I would prefer a more logical and unified package management system. I was wondering if you all had some recommendations for me. Thanks

The second dark age (lemmy.ml)
 

And thus began the second dark age. In the 21st century, the election of Donald Trump triggered a chain of events that ceased scientific progress globally. Environmental stewardship gave way to rampant consumption and dirty industry. Women once again became subjugated to property and lost all human rights. Logic and reason was forgotten and replaced with conspiracy theories and superstition. Over the next few centuries tribalism and the decay of modern society played out against the backdrop of now unstoppable climate change, which was largely attributed to superstitious causes by small groups of devolved humans living in filth amongst the ruins of a once great civilization.

Help me with a rotating firesafe data backup (lemmy.ml)
 

I have between 20-30 TB of data I want to keep a copy of in a firesafe. I do not want to use an online storage solution, I want to maintain my personal data at my home.

My current plan is to get (2) Mediasonic HFR2-SU3S2 PRORAID enclosures and (8) WD Red Pro NAS 16TB drives to fill them. The first would contain a full backup and be placed in the safe. The second would be attached to my machine and receive nightly backups. Periodically, I would rotate the enclosures, taking the one from the safe and swap it with the one connected to my machine.

Are there any problems with my plan that I am not thinking of? Are there better solutions?

Is anyone else keeping a rotating data backup in a safe? How is it working out for you?

I printed a Homer disappearing into the bushes sponge holder on my Ender 3 Pro. (lemmy.ml)
 

I downloaded a model but the Homer had several model flaws and the sponge base didn't fit my sponges so I designed my own. I basically kept only the spout.

I started with a PNG of Homer disappearing into the bushes. I cleaned it up a lot in gimp, then used adobe's PNG to SVG converter, which I'll say works very well. Brought that into inkscape and cleaned it up even more. Separated him into colors, pulled them into tinkercad at different heights, then printed him with 4 color changes.
