Niu Lai (2026). Full length movie that released this month and has grossed over $2m so far. Made by a mother and son.

That’s wild, I just did the same with the same exact lights.

I massage it to mix it up first.

Or that camera screen setup that newer fridges use to see the inside.

It’s like claustrophobia but with time

There was like 5 seconds in the video where he brushed over that, but didn’t explain much other than maybe something about it not being linear.

I recently got an Elegoo Centurion Carbon. You can get them direct from Elegoo as open box for $250 shipped. And they just released the AMS upgrade for that printer for only $50. Granted, the AMS upgrade doesn’t ship until at least next month, so I can’t attest to the quality of that. I have enjoyed my time with the printer though. My first printer, and it’s been painless.

I think overall, it seems to be a pretty low price for multi-color, and pretty decent printing.

PS: there’s also a small community that are releasing custom firmware that’ll let you fully escape the grasp of the company in case they also do silly things.

Haven’t tried it yet, as I’ve only gotten my CC1 just recently., but I’m keeping a close eye on it. Excited for it.

The bag in the top left looks normal to me. It has a bouquet of flowers sticking out. And mirrored images aren’t all that strange.

This is my solution as well. If you’ve got a OpenWRT router, you can have the router itself update the IP.

Classic Pump and dump. You’re better investing in the fermenting industry in the long term.

TA is the stressed syllable here. Fan fucking tastic This one is actually commonly said

I’ve had this starred for a while, but I think I’ll set this up soon. It’s looking pretty good.

Yes, same problem on windows. Using headset mode (audio + mic) changes the headphone audio to shit on top of the mic sucking. So to all reading this, it’s not good as a headset. Just as headphones, it’s fantastic.

Are you using the mic on that as well? When I use the mic + audio, the audio quality suffers a lot. I’ve attached a mod mic to mine and got the best of both worlds.

This has potential as a story/comic/movie:

Most knowledge has been lost in the post-Apocalyptic world. Google doesn’t exist. Books are destroyed. The only thing that remains is a local hosted llm model you have running on solar power.

Kevin: “Hey, what’s this mushroom I managed to forage? It kinda looks like a button mushroom.”

AI: "Hello! Very observant of you! This mushroom IS of the button variety. Their nutritional value is above average for a mushroom. Would you like me to provide you some recipes that incorporate buttons mushrooms? "

Randal: shouts from across the room "Kevin! How many times have I told you to stop wasting our energy with that stupid thing. "

Kevin: "Yeah but we could be eating really well tonight. "

Randal: sighs “the last time you listened to that thing’s cooking advice I had the runs for days”

Oh god. In the future we’ll need open source resistance-like computer part manufacturing.

As someone who uses waterfox but hadn’t heard any of this news, that was a rollercoaster. But consider me relieved.
