Why do you need a waterproof laptop? (I'm just curious)

Hello! I'd like to print food safe objects to use in the kitchen, like spoons and glasses and so on. Looking on the web it seems that the problem with 3d printed objects is that the space between layers is like bacteria's heaven, so after one use you have to throw them away. The only way I found on the web is "coat with resin", but I don't like this very much, as scratches can remove the coating. also "print a negative and use it like a stamp" seems like too much work for a simple spoon.
so the question is, what if I use a filament that can go into the dishwasher, so I can clean it with boiling water? the web didn't help me much on this, as I found different opinions on the matter: some people said that PETG could go in the dishwasher, some said no.

what is the real answer? can I 3d print PETG objects, use them, put them in the dishwasher, and then safely reuse them?

Hello! I have GrapheneOS on my pixel 7, and yesterday I updated it to the latest version. Today, I tried setting a timer and... It didn't work. I'm using simple clock from simple mobile tools. Using the stock clock does work flawlessly instead. Do any of you experience the same?

How to reproduce:

  • Install simple clock
  • open the app and create a new timer, let's say 5 min, and start it
  • close the app
  • there is no notification showing "a timer is running", and after 5 minutes no sound will be played
  • if instead of closing the app you just minimize it, then the notification is shown. After this, you can close the app and the notification will stay, working as expected

(I have it set as not optimized)

Hello! I have a pixel 7 with GrapheneOS, and would like to install eSpeak as TTS engine. On fdroid there is no release available, and on github if I download the apk and try to install it, a "the app cannot be installed because your device is not compatible" error is thrown. Why this? And how can I install it?

Newbie questions (lemmy.kde.social)

Hello there! My friends gifted me an Ender 3 printer, and I achieved my first successful print today! I have a few (probably stupid) questions:

  1. I will store it in my garage, in a shelve among other things. It is quite dusty, so I'm thinking of building a plexiglass hermetic box to keep it while powered off. Would it be a problem to keep it closed also while printing? This would change the type of box I'll build, because there is not much space and I'm trying to save the most of it
  2. How do I store the filament? I (currently) have only one filament (black PLA), so I see no need to remove it from the printer each time, but leaving it "connected" (I don't know how to say it) will not allow me to store it in a different way the printer is stored. Do I need to store it in special ways or can I leave it connected? (And bonus question, what is the correct word to say it?)
  3. If I don't move the printer, how often should I calibrate it?

Sorry if these are basic questions, I'm taking my first steps into this magic world... Thanks in advance!

Hello! My notifications have a "BZZ BZZ" vibration, with two consecutive pulses. I'd like to only have one BZZ. How can I change it? In the settings I was only able to change the vibration intensity, but not the pattern Running Android 14

Hello! I'm running GrapheneOS on my Pixel 7 with sandboxed play services, and use some apps that depends on play services like Satispay and my banking app. Today I tried, as an experiment, to deactivate the play service app, and see what happens. Well, they both opens and seem to work, except for a notification saying "Activate Play Services, this app will not work if you don't" Is this notification lying? Or are some functionalitis not working without play services? If yes, which one?

Hello! I am analyzing the battery usage of each app, and noticed that Mull browser is always on the very top of the list, even during night (between 4.00 AM and 6.00 AM). How is this possible? Is it an android error? I'm using GrapheneOS (Android 14)

Hello! I'm looking for a FOSS replacement for the calculator app that I currently use, N-CALC, that is now not even released in the play store (http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.duy.calc.casio) and only available from sites like APKFree. I tried all the various calculator apps on F-droid but none of them supported "rich text" (I don't know how to call it):

Any tips?

thanks in advance!

Hello! Just switched from my old device with android 10 to my new pixel with Android 14 (GrapheneOS), and I'm missing a lot the persistent notification feature of android 10: I used Tasks.org from fdroid to get reminders in my notifications tray, and until I manually clicked "completed" there was no way to remove them, not by swiping nor by clicking "remove all". Now, on Android 14, if I swipe the notification.... It goes away, lost forever. Is there a way to enable the old behavior? Or a workaround to make sure I'll never delete an important notification by accident?

Thanks in advance!

[For those who don't know: an Interactive Fiction, or IF for short, is a console game where the user has to write down a command like "take hammer", "open door with the key", "go north" etc, and the game will reply with what's happening, for example "you took the hammer and put it in your backpack"]

Hello everyone! A little overview: I really like interactive fictions, and I wrote my first (and only) one in high school after following the first 3 lessons of C++ programming... So I wrote it in C++. Without any while or for loops, as I didn't study them yet. I wrote it using goto statements. Yeah, it was a pain, but I was pretty satisfied with the result, despite the many bugs and unintended behavior.

Now, after many years, I actually learned to code, and I'd like to try to write a new one. Searching the web for tools to do this I only found out graphics editor (like Quest) but they are all either unmaintained, very old looking, slow (I don't want to wait 1 second everytime I insert a new rule). They were all advertised as "beginner friendly" as no coding skills were needed. I'd like however to use a more scripting-oriented framework, possibility written in Python, JavaScript or C/C++. I found something on github but all had the last commit many years ago. What I'd like to find is a framework that has to be used this way:

from xxxxx import *

x = newIF("English")
x.setting1 = something
x.setting2 = somethingelse

y = Room()
y.property1 = something

x.rooms += y

# and so on

Is there any active framework that allows me to write an IF this way? If not, what tool do you recommend? I'd rather use FOSS solutions

Thanks for reading until here, and thanks in advance for the answers!

Have you tried some custom icon packs from the kde store?

[-] tubbadu@lemmy.kde.social 18 points 1 year ago

You can, but you can also use one of the many public instances like piped.video, piped.yt and many more
