I just finished a new 3D-printed planter for growing grass for cats! 🐱 It’s designed to work with fractured, porous clay gravel and features a built-in drainage system. A sturdy grid helps keep the grass in place while your cat enjoys their fresh greens.

Check it out, along with all the details and downloads: printables.com/model/1231471

Lovely superellipsoid shape and meticulously designed as always. Is there a technical reason for the gap between the screw pillar and the wall here?
in reply to Christian Walther

@isziaui No, this was just an error in the Prototype. 😄 The model files do not have this gap.
in reply to Christian Walther

@isziaui By the way, I’d love to try this, but the shape isn’t a superellipsoid. All four corners have the same optical-optimised shape, based on a Bezier curve. The sides are actually flat. I just made an effort to make the transitions to the corners disappear.

In May 1944 she was deported to #Auschwitz, where she was murdered in a gas chamber.




@pluralistic: "That's where "AI" comes in.

The hype around #AI serves an important material need for tech companies.

By lumping an incoherent set of poorly understood technologies together into a hot buzzword, tech companies can bamboozle investors into thinking that there's plenty of growth in their future."

Helping Russia win is a Trump goal, not a goal of the citizens of USA.

Only 30 percent believe the US is providing too much aid for Ukraine, as opposed to 45 percent who believe the aid is about right or not enough.

And still Trump is on Putin's side.

in reply to Randahl Fink

1) If you have a group of people all steering the wheel, some going left, some trying to go straight and some right - with those percentages it will take a turn, slightly to the right. Unfortunately it is not just Trump.

2) Trump is not as such on Putin’s side. They both view the liberal well-informed democratic society as a threat. But they also view each other as opponents, and they both try to utilize Europe to their own advantage.



Michael Bauer, maker of the DIY REMI electronic wind instrument, has just published all the design and build notes from a pretty neat Samd21 based synth, designed for an Adafruit Itsy-Bitsy M0.

There is a very comprehensive build guide and all code is for the Arduino environment and up on GitHub.

Read more here: mjbauer.biz/Sigma6_M0_synth_we…

I always learn a lot from his writeups 😀

Luftverschmutzung ist ein wichtiger Auslöser von Allergien bei Erwachsenen. Stickstoffoxide aus Autoabgasen führen zu entzündlichen Reaktionen, und diese wiederum zu fehregulierter Immunantwort. Derartige Zusammenhänge werden ignoriert, um billig gegen Grüne Politik vorzugehen.

Der Link unten ist einfach nur das erste, was für mich auf Europe PMC dazu hochkommt. Der Konsens zu den Zusammenhängen ist klar. Wissenschaftliche Diskussion ist halt vorsichtig.

My favourite #melbourne tradition is how on the last day they open for the season, Pascoe Vale pool invites the local dogs to come for a swim. It might have been the happiest place in the city today. Absolutely worth getting soaked by a rainstorm for. They were such good doggos

Right, after the disappointment of that last scanner arriving broken (and filthy), it's time to get serious.

I've found a more reputable seller and ordered a Fujitsu Fi-7160. No flatbed, I'll keep my current SP-1425 for that, but it's got intelligent anti-skew, supposedly top-end paper feeding tech, and does 120 images a minute(!) from the 50 IPM of my SP-1425.

Fully refurbished, new rollers, 12-month RTB warranty. Should be here some time next week.

That should speed up the scanning stage (fewer rescans due to misfeeds, faster scanning) and the processing stage (no, or at least less, manual deskewing).

But what about the cutting stage? That's a very manual process right now, involving a Stanley knife and a steel rule.

The answer: a heavy-duty guillotine, which the manufacturer claims can do a 4cm-thick stack of paper. That's at least half again as thick as the biggest issue I've got - and it'll cut perfectly straight in one pass (I hope!)

in reply to Gareth Halfacree

If this all works - and it's a big if - I'll have not only dramatically sped up the whole process, but the finished result will be better with less page content missing from those annoying catalogue pages that don't respect the gutter.

Cross your fingers for me!




It’s that time of year - people asking us about #bumblebees - WHY THEY’RE SEEING THEM ON THE GROUND - so here’s a thread to explain what they’re up to.
Please #repost.
Every #queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce new queen #bees for next year!
So this is important to share.
Thank you.

#Bumblebee queens emerge in early spring from #hibernation and immediately need to feed - that’s why early flowering plants are so important. Apart from feeding their mission at this time is to find a suitable site to establish a nest. Hence you will observe queens flying low…

I feel so seen by this article. That was why we chose to homeschool our son after having experienced all of the negative effects your article covered in his previous school.


Had two cold nights, so I was out poking the mud with a stick to see if it's frozen deep enough to try pulling that concrete beam again.

Nope, only top 1-2cm. I did sort through the steel pile yesterday. Found some wheels, but no two matching ones, nor anything resembling a wheel bearing or suitable axle.

Some other treasures though. Like a human powered plow. And a chair frame. Some wedges. And a ... wtf is that. Welding table?

in reply to Y⃒̸̷̝̜̙ͥͥͥngmar

I don't think it's a welding table, more like an anvil or something like that.
in reply to Y⃒̸̷̝̜̙ͥͥͥngmar

@Vejasniekadejas Not to mention, anvils work by supplying a large mass that is not easily accelerated by a hammer blow (inertia). This thing is far too light.
in reply to Y⃒̸̷̝̜̙ͥͥͥngmar

The legs are too weak for an real anvil, but maybe it's for some similar work. Made a welding table myself, it's nothing to compare with in terms of size, metal thickness.


If you enjoy factual take downs of poorly thought-out evolutionary biology theories you'll like this video that takes apart a fringe theory about neanderthals being some kind of evil ape super-predators.

I think it's really sad that neanderthals aren't around anymore, I think we could learn a lot by interacting with humans who were more significantly different from anyone who is alive today.

in reply to myrmepropagandist

if the calories do turn out to be a major factor for filtering out most of the "Neanderthal features" in our DNA¹, then aren't we describing the 80/20 rule but applied to evolution?

¹as @michael_w_busch pointed out: Neanderthals and sapiens sapiens interbred. So arguably the discussion should be framed as which genetic features were selected for within the hominid lineage, rather than as two truly different species of which one went extinct.

The (forced) disappearance of cash continues, but I wonder what would happen if you turn up at a card only premises, eat their food & then only offer cash?

They will say card only, but you are offering legal tender;

They might say you have consumed food without the means to pay, but you have the legal means to pay.

Would they call the police & how would this be litigated I wonder?

Just needs a group to organise this sort of action, and we might find out?

I'm one of the people who barely uses cash any more. I barely even use my actual cards, just my phone's payment app. But I still believe cash should be an option. For one thing not everyone wants their every transaction to be on the record. A teenager should be able to buy a book for cash.

Cash is mainly necessary for dealing with strangers. In Ireland during a 6 month bank strike in 1970 people created their own cash in the form of endorsed cheques. Worked fine for trading with trusted parties.

ICE tortured a German green card holder living in New Hampshire to get him to give up his green card. He had no active issues in court. This is not the first person from a democracy to have disappeared. @EUCommission, you need to issue a travel warning, and you need to do it now.
in reply to E Rosalie

Keep in mind, that US citizens have rights at the border with ICE, foreigners don't have any of these rights.
It is the complete opposite of Europe, where everyone has the same rights, no matter which citizenship.
in reply to Stefanie Janine Stölting

No! Stop spreading misinformation.

Non US citizens have rights in the US and what the US state does is illegal on multiple levels.

Saying that non us citizens have no rights suggests that the US state is operating legally, which they are not. They are a Unrechtsstaat.

First of all all people in the US have human rights which the US has to follow.

And then you have here a good list of non us citizens rights:
