Fun little piece of trivia: Originally, nimrod used to mean "skillful hunter" (after Nimrod, the biblical figure) but then in 1940 Bugs Bunny sarcastically called Elmer Fudd a “poor little nimrod", and kids of the time not knowing the reference, simply assumed it was an insult on Elmer's character.

And that's how a cartoon rabbit single handedly changed the meaning of a word.

We have 3 Stratasys printers at work and yeah, you're absolutely correct.

To add, their 'professional' slicer program "Insight" is the most user hostile piece of software I've ever laid my eyes on. Straight out of 1992 levels of awful. The workflow, the UI (if you can call it that), everything.

The other 'user friendly' slicer is "GrabCAD Print", an Apple style piece of garbage. It lacks everything beyond basic functionality, yet lately they've been pumping it full of subscription locked features.

Honestly, fuck this company.

It's also conveniently missing that adults affected by ADHD are up to 6x more likely to also have depression than adults without ADHD.
Kind of an important point if you want your kid to actually live to adulthood.

Cool story, but that site. Holy shit.

The absolute state of webdesign in 2024.

It never went away.
I can still hear incoming calls, texts, and tower pings with my headphones.

I was walking alone in an empty street during NYE when a random girl, who happened to come by, spread her arms and blocked my way in a playful manner.

She only let me pass once I cracked a smile.
It's been well over a decade, but I still remember her face.

It was the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.

Besides, what the guy is yapping about it is 80% a robotics problem not an AI problem. It's apples and oranges.

He's essentially saying why can Will Smith finally eat pasta normally while we still don't have the robotic workforce from the 2001 Will Smith movie "I, Robot".

Same. It's 12 years for me.

Anyway, here's to wasting another 13 years in the fediverse! 🍺

It started as a joke but nowadays more and more old memes and screenshots can only be found in conditions like the last panel.

That's irrelevant here because what they're describing is happening in every market, not just their niche.

Oh, shit you're right.

I wiped my whole profile years ago (with a script that overwrites your comments before deleting) but they're still visible everywhere except in my profile.

Isn't this bullshit illegal?

There's nothing reasonable about these assumptions.

There's no way the VisionPro gets even close to 100W. Why? Because heat dissipation. The vast majority of power drawn by semiconductors is dissipated as heat and, in a device that's strapped to someone's face, there's simply no way to dissipate hundreds of watts.

Also, knowing the battery pack size and battery life, it's easy to guesstimate the power consumption.

“The Apple Vision Pro provides approximately 2 hours of battery life. Based on its size, the internal battery capacity is estimated to be within 20,000mAh (74Wh), resulting in an overall power consumption of around 30W.”

Even if we assume the double of that 30W, it's well within USB-C standards.
