Might get into the "Everyday Carry" scene, which seems to involve buying an e-reader, a music player, a portable games console, a watch, two pairs of headphones, a Field Notes notebook and a knife, artfully photographing them all on a desk, and then never leaving my house

I made a tool that turns PCB designs into 3D-printable molds. you sandwich copper tape between the parts, sand the ridges, and you have a real working PCB. no etching, no chemicals. I am losing my mind

Embarrassing that these lawyers aren't subject to sanctions and disbarment proceedings. Joke profession
Appalling: During Trump's effort to indict Dems for the video warning against carrying out illegal orders, one of their lawyers asked prosecutors to say what statute was allegedly violated, I'm told. They failed to name one. Then they tried to indict anyway.

by the way, if you come in here with 'what about the policewoman who got attacked with a sledgehammer' you should probably wait for the trial details to come out. it sounds like police colluded with elbit to conceal cctv evidence and both police & internal security basically attacked the defendants.

Been doing a bunch of small prints in the background, trying to use up this old PETG I had from years ago, and the spool just will not die!
Maybe this print will be the one that fails half-way through.

It's weird to think how many objects in the world were designed using Fusion 360 or similar, then realise the designer probably spent the whole time cursing the tool because it's a total piece of shit (but there's no better option). Like everything was born in suffering, even inanimate objects.

Thousands of CEOs just admitted AI had no impact on employment or productivity—and it has economists resurrecting a paradox from 40 years ago | Fortune
In the 1980s, economist Robert Solow made an observation that reminded economists of today’s AI boom: “You can see the computer age everywhere but in the productivity statistics.”

Chris Wright on seized Venezuelan oil: "We've sold about $1 billion of oil so far. We've recently signed agreements to sell about another $5 billion in the next several months. So you're talking well north of $10 billion a year ... this is way out of the box, groundbreaking Trump diplomacy."
