  • Fun little piece of trivia: Originally, nimrod used to mean "skillful hunter" (after Nimrod, the biblical figure) but then in 1940 Bugs Bunny sarcastically called Elmer Fudd a “poor little nimrod", and kids of the time not knowing the reference, simply assumed it was an insult on Elmer's character.

    And that's how a cartoon rabbit single handedly changed the meaning of a word.

    3D printer maker Bambu Lab faces patent infringement lawsuits that could threaten hobbyist 3D printing in general
  • We have 3 Stratasys printers at work and yeah, you're absolutely correct.

    To add, their 'professional' slicer program "Insight" is the most user hostile piece of software I've ever laid my eyes on. Straight out of 1992 levels of awful. The workflow, the UI (if you can call it that), everything.

    The other 'user friendly' slicer is "GrabCAD Print", an Apple style piece of garbage. It lacks everything beyond basic functionality, yet lately they've been pumping it full of subscription locked features.

    Honestly, fuck this company.

    What did your parents refrigerate? Mine refrigerated bread.
  • Never had problem thawing store bought bread before.

    You have to put the bread in an airtight bag before freezing and let it completely thaw out in the bag before opening. This way the total moisture content within the bag will remain the same.

    A cool guide about ADHD in the infographic
  • And let's see some statistics on those business owners.
    Are they actually successful, or just 3x more likely to start a business on impulse and then 5x more likely to go bankrupt because of ADHD?

  • It's also conveniently missing that adults affected by ADHD are up to 6x more likely to also have depression than adults without ADHD.
    Kind of an important point if you want your kid to actually live to adulthood.

    People are noticing positive things about you
  • I was walking alone in an empty street during NYE when a random girl, who happened to come by, spread her arms and blocked my way in a playful manner.

    She only let me pass once I cracked a smile.
    It's been well over a decade, but I still remember her face.

    It was the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.

    I thought I would buy a 3 kg spool because lazy, don't be me.
  • You'd probably have to keep tuning as the weight of the spool decreases.
    Its more practical to print a spool holder with bearings for it. Thingyverse has some good ones

    PowerDeleteSuite still works for nuking your Reddit history
  • Cool, you managed to get it working after all. I never used Power Shell before this either.
    It's ridiculous the average user has to jump through all these hoops just to regain control of their own data.

    PowerDeleteSuite still works for nuking your Reddit history
  • That's strange. It took me a while to figure out as well, but then worked non-stop for an entire day.

    This is what I ran:

    C:\Users\workPC\Documents\reddit-data\shreddit-windows.exe --username blah --password blah --client-id blah --client-secret blah --gdpr-export-dir C:\Users\workPC\Documents\reddit-data\export_blah_20240225

    It's possible reddit is rate limiting you, or the program loses access to the gdpr folder it's pulling the links from (antivirus?). You could try running it from a different path or on a different pc.
    I ran the .exe from the same "reddit-data" folder that contained the gdpr files just to be safe with folder permissions and stuff.

    He's essentially saying why can Will Smith finally eat pasta normally while we still don't have the robotic workforce from the 2001 Will Smith movie "I, Robot".

  • update: turns out PowerDeleteSuite and others can only delete your 1000 most recent comments (a limit set by reddit), but I found something that actually works and does a thorough job.
    https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit

    There are step-by-step instructions on the page.
    I'm running the program in PowerShell with the GDPR option, and it's been nicely chugging away for hours now.

  • PowerDeleteSuite doesn't work for me.
    https://old.reddit.com/u/me/overview takes me to a login page (even though I'm already signed in) and when I sign in there, the same page just comes back again without the credentials I typed in.

    Same thing happens in Firefox and Edge.
    I swear it worked last year. Is it now broken or am I just really stupid?
