If there was any TV show that was cancelled or cut short that you could see the planned continuation/ending of, which would you choose? in c/[email protected]

I can't disagree, but that doesn't mean I don't want more.

Canadian Travel Boycott Slams U.S. With Record Drop in c/[email protected]
[–] smuuthbrane 21 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

It's not a travel boycott, we're avoiding your borders because we don't feel safe. If American citizens can be deported without due process, we have no illusions about being afforded basic decency or process. That's already been shown to be the case.

I want to see emissions levels of this directly compared to a modern 4 stroke. Sure, it's novel, but if it can't meet or exceed 4 stroke emissions performance, it's already dead.

I concentrate more on the quality of the data input, and not just the frequency.

Let's crowdfund Act 4, but done with stop motion Lego.

Gotta be a 2 axis gantry. I mean, it could be a standard 6 axis robot arm, but I seriously doubt it.

How much silver powder (by mass) is in this beaker? in c/[email protected]
[–] smuuthbrane 6 points 1 week ago

1026g. Based on the amount of visible water volume, and a guess of more above that subtracted from the total weight.

Folding phones are hardly a necessary advance. They're the next 3D TV.

Sample gut flora of people with "auto-brewery syndrome", culture the samples, and sell them in pill form to DUI lawyers for their clients. (self.shitty_million_dollar_ideas)
 

This is a shitty idea because anyone driving under the influence deserves to be tried and punished for their actions. But if this could be done, you'd have no trouble selling each pill for $1000.

Or, sell the pills for way less to those that want to get drunk off bread or pasta. Either way it's a totally plausible, feasible, potentially lucrative shitty idea.

PCBWay does CNC and sheet metal, apparently together (sh.itjust.works)

I thought this group might be able to appreciate this part. I ordered 5 from PCBWay. They are 1/4" mild steel. For just over $30USD each I got them in 16 days. But I have SO MANY questions about their process.

I wanted to share my incredulity with group that might also have their minds blown with this.

Scab in a Can (self.shitty_million_dollar_ideas)
 

A can or bottle of an edible liquid that, when applied to skin, dries to a peelable scab-like consistency.

Mainstream? No, but the niche this hits it would hit HARD.

Just got the update overnight and now i have a text overlaid on my feed. Is there a way to clear the message or otherwise get it to disappear?

portrait to landscape refreshes feed (self.jerboa)
 

I've had this happen a few times now when looking at images, I tap an image to open it, turn my devise to landscape mode, but instead of seeing the image my feed refreshes. Known bug, or has anyone else found this too?

refresh on portrait to landscape transition (self.jerboa)
 

Hey, I've experienced this a few times now. I've clicked an image to view it, but to get a better view I've switched to landscape mode. When this happens, instead of seeing the image still, my feed refreshes. Anyone else getting this? Known bug maybe? Thanks!

sort by "New", updates instantly all the time? (self.main)

I'm still playing around getting my bearings here, trying to explore this still-growing federation. I've tried browsing by "New" on both mobile and desktop a couple of times, but on desktop it's almost unsuable. Any time there's a new post, the INSTANT it goes up my feed updates, and scrolls down. Sometimes it's one post, sometimes a dozen.

To me (opinion here), sorting by "new" should sort of be a timestampped thing: I want "new as of right now but nothing more". If I refresh, sure update me to the latest. But a list that's live updating as things happen? That's... not useful to me.

Am I missing something, or does anyone else feel similarly?
