Hegz@lemmy.cato Ask Science@lemmy.world•I don't know if this qualifies. What is the real world equivalent to Vibranium or Admantium? Or have we come that far yet?English11·3 months ago
Hegz@lemmy.cato 3DPrinting@lemmy.world•How do I improve the overhangs on my Artillery Genius?English5·3 months agoI’ve heard some reports that printing outer walls first has a positive effect on overhangs. I have it on in my slicer and it doesn’t seem to negatively effect anything.

It was either Atari 2600 or comodor 64/vic20
I want to say pole position or pressure cooker for the Atari, or robotron on the comodor. My dad gave both to me when I was young, and I can’t recall which was first.
I remember the comodor had a tape drive, that used audio cassets to load programs, took a good 2-3 minutes to load a game. What an odd thing in retrospect.

Hegz@lemmy.cato No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If you were dropped into a pool of people's spit and prevented from getting out, would you melt to death?34·4 months agoI’m pretty sure the primary enzymes in saliva are amalyse and lipase. They start to break down starches and fats respective. You’d probably needs something that breaks down protiens to have any effect on your skin.
Or be mashed into a pulp so the lipase could get to work…
Hegz@lemmy.cato You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that Stanford scientists recently examined what happens when people stop using social media. They found deactivating Facebook and Instagram improved users' emotional well-being and happiness11·4 months agoPersonally I find there to be less new daily content on lemmy, so it ends up self limiting as I see the same posts again. Might just be what I’m subbed to, and or how I sort. But I do end up spending less time here than I did reddit, or I currently do on youtube.
Hegz@lemmy.cato No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If you know a rather simple fundamental flaw in a new trillion dollar technology that everyone missed, what would you do?6·5 months agoOh please share, so we can take advantage of the crash too.
Hegz@lemmy.cato Today I Learned (TIL)@lemmy.ca•TIL zombo.com still exists, and no longer requires flash4·9 months agoAlso one of the very few non https sites that I can recall off the top of my head. I use it for testing on a semi regular basis.
Hegz@lemmy.cato Linux@programming.dev•Ubuntu Joins the Movement: X11 Officially Being Phased Out7·10 months agoSeveral months ago I had a similar experience. Even just running plasma with Wayland+Nvidia was enough to cause problems.
Is the guy in the blue suit reading a book behind that sign or something?
Hegz@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.zip•Consumers make their voices heard as Microsoft's huge Copilot venture flatlines in popularityEnglish6·1 year agoI kind of want to see the chat boards where people who think this is a good idea hang out and justify it…
With sort of the same way you stare at a train wreck, morbid curiosity.
Hegz@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Conservatives say a suspicious document was made to sway prisoners against them. We looked into it21·1 year agoThere’s one by us that’s maybe a 10 minute walk from my house. the prison can’t be seen from residential areas, and vice versa so no big deal.
Edit: it’s a correction center, which is probably different then a prison.
Hegz@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You StopEnglish2·1 year agoI was just thinking the slashdot used to be a massive source of traffic across the internet.
And now it’s a sink. How times change.
Finally a theory that makes sense.
Hegz@lemmy.cato [Migrated, see pinned post] Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•my employer is making me buy a new PC for my remote job (or update and use my own, instead)English5·1 year agoVery much this. It’s been a free upgrade for windows 10 for a good long while now.

I use tasker to pull the astronomy picture of the day.
Cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, in cooking.
Feet and inches should still be common in construction. At least it’s how wood is sold.
We still use letter / legal paper printer measured in inches.
My bathroom scale is in pounds.
I’m sure there are some others, but we’re not fully metric on everything.
