I use a lulzbot Taz and the toolheads are easy to swap out. I've seen a dremel tool holder for it on thingaverse, so that would take care of the weight and rigidity since it would be on its own mount instead of mounted to the actual ex

Why not attach a Dremel with some routing bits instead of the pen and route it?

Not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. I'm just capable of doing the most basic of research, which is something you probably should have done before commenting.

I've been noticing a larger and larger portion of sites in google results have been taken over by something . They all act the same way, and act similar to cloudfares checks. You get a big green dot on the screen first and then a bunc

That's pretty cool! Have you thought about making it into a PWA and ditch the proprietary ios/android ecosystems and just allow anyone with a browser to use it? It doesn't seem like there is much in this app that NEEDS to be

Pegasus, by the NSO Group. Yes, for the right money you can get into any iPhone. It was pretty effective to help Saudi Arabia kill Khashoggi and also aide other gov'ts, like Mexico, in going after journalists and dissidents. NSO Group

My 70" Samsung TV is just being used as a dumb monitor. It's hooked to a small windows 7 HTPC box. I use Media Center to get my DRM cable using $1.50/month cable cards from the cable company (comcast), so don't need to r

Facebook is human to computer. I consider human connections to be person to person, where you can see, talk to, hear, gauge body language and nuance, and adjust to that in real time . Facebook is a substitute for human connection, and a po

There were some cool gif2ansi progs as well at the time. I had forgotten about TheDraw. Back in the days when modem communications were so slow that you could actually read the characters coming across the screen as they were received. It w

The other week I was out in a National Forest hiking. I was about 6 miles from the nearest Forest Service road. I took a break and sat there eating a sandwich and looked up to see a camera mounted on a tree about 4 feet from me. I imagine s

We also had advanced warning, as did the Iraqis. They even knew the timing. I'm sure we moved troops out of harms way. Iran's not just going to lob some missiles into a foreign country without first telling them, because they (Ira

It also depends on what company is doing it, apparently. Some are all for the walled garden approach when it suits their business model or they are a "fanboi" of the company/product, but despicable and evil when others do it.

Sounds like a great time to start your own woke git service. So you have maybe 10-15 open source packages in your product, at a minimum. I guess we're at such an intolerant point now that all 10-15 of those companies political policies

Why do you consider it a fundamental right to be able to go on someone else's private property, even if it was allowed public usage in the past? Maybe CA should have passed some sort of beach front protection like Oregon did in 1967. N
