Or, 3D print a prototype for fit and a ground test, then send your file out to get a metal sintered version from a print service bureau.

In amateur rocketry, there are constant questions about heat resistance of both 3D printing filaments and epoxy. As amateurs, there's kind of a 'try it and see' mentality. But good Lord, you're not RIDING in the thing!

FAFO!

Last rolling flat (not cold in the driveway) was on the way to a job interview. Pulled over, jacked the car up, put on the SPARE FUCKING TIRE, arrived late and asked for a minute to wash hands properly.

Got the job.

Didn't have 3 hours to waste on AAA.

That was with my dearly-missed candy white 2007 GTI.

Submission + - Toronto Mom: Tesla's Grok chatbot asked kid for nudes (www.cbc.ca)

jddj writes: A Toronto Mom says the recently "upgrade" of a Grok AI chatbot that Tesla installed in her vehicle steered a chat about soccer stars Ronaldo and Messi to a request for the child to send nude photos.

When CBC asked Tesla about the incident, they got no response, however xAI sent what appeared to be an automated response of "Legacy Media Lies".

Comment Those are not "Podcasts" (Score 2) 106

Podcasts are an audio-format medium, delivered by an RSS subscription feed.

What the article is talking about are videos, not "podcasts". The medium is different, and the subscription and delivery mechanisms are different.

Further, the content is different in character, as an audio medium doesn't expect you to state at a screen while you consume it.

This isn't a matter of simple pedantics. The cheese is being moved for an entire industry, to the detriment of its subscribers and creators. As production costs go up, and attention to a screen is required, podcasting may just disappear.

How sad.
