I can't read one of these "humans are the best in the universe" stories without thinking of my first time, "Rescue Party" by Arthur C Clarke. Y'all just mumbling over his sampled beats. #rehash #scifi #humans #space #arthurcclarke

Why are you trying to play #factorio in the dark? Make some lamps! They're also a great early warning for power problems. #lettherebelight #light #lamp #ilikelamp #game #dark #tip

Playing with my ragdolls. @crypticsea.bsky.social any chance I can get some advice? I'd love to compare notes. #physics #ragdolls #java #opengl #opensource

Added a path tracer to Robot Overlord. This Stanford dragon is 97k triangles. Also attached are some test visuals @sebastianlague.bsky.social style. #pathtracing #raytracing #coding #java #opensource

Made my rotation tool behave more like everybody else's, because a low learning curve means more adoption. Right? ...right? #opengl #java #3d #rotate #cube #adoption #easy

Thanks, OpenGL, for never supporting lines more than 1px thick. Glad nobody has a use for THAT. #opengl #sarcasm #thicc #drawing

The @telussupport.bsky.social official number to move home services leads to a business selling bicycle parts. Typical quality control. I just want to schedule my service appointment. Why is that impossible? #telus #typical

THE SHATTERING PEACE by John Scalzi. Out of ten I give it a solid 6, a soft 8. Pretty solid by the numbers continuation of the Old Man’s War universe. #book #scifi #review #read #scalzi

A little sad I’m saying goodbye to my Tormach. It didn’t get enough use here. #robotics #stories #cnc

Using fusion 360 to plan the layout of my next robotics workshop. The blue square is my car. First world maker problems… #logistics #planning #robotics #design #architecture

A linear actuator 3d printed pre pandemic. I was going to make several build a plotter. I like the limit switch mount. #robotics #stories

Remains of two Stewart platforms. One had a joystick, the other had a dentist tool. The game was to brush a mouth from across the room. Seen at the last nyc maker fair. It works but I don’t need 6 SPs. #robotics #stories #maker #nyc #makerfair

A robot arm concept made for me by UBC students. Modular repeating sections for easier build. Five types of screws, product didn’t meet requirements, best work-with-students I’ve had yet. #robotics #stories #disappointed

The cheapest reflow oven I ever made. Arduino reads temp and controls power relay with a PID. I forget who to credit for the idea. #robotics #story #electronics #reflow #arduino #pidcontrol

An original Makelangelo 3 plotter robot from another age. Worked great IF you could calibrate it. Ain’t nobody got time for that so the 5 is a single fixed size, calibration always perfect. #robots #robotics #stories

Working on my implementation of Chiu et al 2015, "tone and feature aware circular scribble art". Not quite there but getting pretty close!

The printable #makelangelo plotter hook works great until your board is too small. Thank goodness it’s a pegboard. #makeitwork

Added a curlicue style node. Make vector art that Midjourney can't! Someone suggested these could be made into NFTs? @harkish.bsky.social #nft #bitcoin #spiral #art #drawing #adapt #midjourney
