Is it safe to use MIG Switch for pirating? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 3 points 6 days ago

Stop projecting, maybe? No, I'm not forced. But I want to, because I refuse to pay any more money to such a shitty company. I paid for the product, now I'm gonna use it the way I want to.

Price is not my reason for pirating. Seriously, people are different from you, stop assuming that everyone has the same motivation as you do.

I mean, who doesn't? But nah, I just don't want to pay a company that does as much horrible stuff as Nintendo does. That pretty much means I own an expensive paperweight which I'm not a huge fan of as well. So I decided it's gonna be a pirating only console.

I don't like the way Nintendo destroys people's lives just because they "lost" a few dollars.

So it will become a MIG switch only system, right? Also, how does one get caught? I'm not into online games in general, so I wouldn't be playing any multiplayer games. Is the simple fact that the game's certificate was used on multiple devices simultaneously enough to flag the device?

I have a MIG Switch and a few pirated games, though I'm afraid it will ban my account, including games I've bought.

I don't use Switch anymore due to philosophical reasons, so it's probably not a huge deal, but it would probably still piss me off, because I spent some money there.

Do you think it could be mitigated by resetting the switch to the factory settings and never logging in?

Yeah, it can do other stuff, I was simply stating a use-case I consider valid. Doesn't matter that others have come up with the feature before. This is presumably better at detecting the object and removing / replacing it.

I can see a few useful use-cases, mainly deleting unwanted stuff / people from a photo.

Settings, mostly. The layering is always there, but how visible it is depends on the layer height. Both the Depresso and Spyro were made with 0.2mm layer height, which is a good compromise between looks-good/prints-fast. If you want something that looks really nice, you'd go to 0.08mm layer height (the lowest this particular printer can go with this particular nozzle size). The print would take around 2.5 times longer with 0.08mm layer height.

Material also affects this, but PLA generally is the easiest to print with and looks among the best visually. If the print speed were really high it would affect it as well, but it was well under the maximum speeds.

This is a FDM printer which basically lays one layer of heated plastic over another, there are also SLA printers which can go much lower layer heights and thus the prints are visually much better, though use-case of such printers are limited to pretty looking pieces, you can't really make anything functional with them.

Edit: If you want the prints to look really great, you're gonna have to do some post-processing anyway, like sanding down the uglier parts and painting it with some acrylic paint. That way you avoid the visible layers as well.

Configurable OpenSCAD calendar (makerworld.com)
submitted 2 months ago by rikudou@lemmings.world to c/3dprinting@lemmy.world
2 comments fedilink

So, a few days ago I've written about a then work-in-progress configurable calendar model and now we're ready to roll!

Features

  • The days are always correct - uses an algorithm to calculate the correct day for any date. So if you want to print a calendar for 2077, rest assured that the model will calculate the correct day for the 1st of January (it's Friday, btw).
  • Generate only select months - the full model measures 240x240 mm, which might be quite large for some smaller printers. You can generate only months 1-6 and then separately months 7-12 and voilá, it fits.
  • Choose how many months are on each row - what would it help cutting the calendar in half by only selecting half of the months if you couldn't fit 3 columns on your print bed? Well, just change the amount of columns, of course! Set it to 2 and the model fits again.
  • Custom holidays - every country has different holidays and here you can put them all easily!
  • No AMS or MMU? No problem! - supports printing both with AMS/MMU and without. With a simple toggle you can switch between multi material mode and a mode where each colored part has different height for manual color switching
  • Are Saturdays worth celebrating? - you decide! A simple toggle to toggle whether Saturdays have that holiday/Sunday color or not
  • Magnet or hook holes? - or both? You can configure the diameter, width, height and whatnot of either or both.
  • What the f…ont! - choose your font, choose your font size.
  • No hablo English? - just translate the calendar to your language! Title, month names and day names are all translatable.

[Work In Progress] Parametric OpenSCAD calendar (lemmings.world)
submitted 2 months ago by rikudou@lemmings.world to c/3dprinting@lemmy.world
10 comments fedilink

So, I'm making a fully customizable calendar in OpenSCAD with the following features:

  • correct columns for every date - uses an algorithm to calculate the correct day of the week for any date, you just change the year and the calendar is correct
  • fully translatable
  • supports custom holidays
  • supports both MMU/AMS and single extruder (with the help of M600 or similar)

Planned features:

  • configurable holes for magnets or holes for hanging the calendar
  • configurable first day of the week

I can share the SCAD file, though beware it's a work in progress and I haven't test printed it yet.

[OpenSCAD] Configurable household task planner (makerworld.com)

I made a configurable Task planner that you can easily edit using OpenSCAD customizer (or various compatible customizers like the one on Makerworld).

I've posted this here once already some time ago, so here's what's changed:

  • tasks can now be provided as a comma-separated items
  • font can be changed in customizer (added due to a request for Korean language support)

Open source ebook reader recommendations? (lemmings.world)
submitted 3 months ago by rikudou@lemmings.world to c/android@lemdro.id
10 comments fedilink

Currently I'm using Google Play books and there are few things I'm used to and can't live without:

  • turning pages by volume keys
  • cloud syncing (doesn't have to be their cloud, but implementing some cloud services would be nice, bonus points for S3 compatible)
  • searching text in the book
  • supports epub

I want to switch to something open source because I'm often using my S-Pen to turn pages and I'd like my book reader to support it too. I'm fine with contributing the code myself (as I've done for the comic book reader app I'm using), but if there already is one, it would save me some work.

At this point, making something that doesn't work using Wine or Proton is actually kind of an achievement, so congrats EA, you managed to fuck up both Origin and EA app. The actual game runs flawlessly, it's the launchers that are all kinds of broken.
