McDonald’s will stop testing AI to take drive-thru orders, for now
  • Its because those touch screens have clunky UI and are slow if they made it simple and straightforward instead of a question for every page it would be as fast if not faster than a person ordering at a register. Most PoS systems are touch screen nowadays so literally all your doing instead of putting in the options in yourself is telling someone else what to put in. They also do it hundreds of times an hour so they are way faster that someone whos only used a kiosk a few times

  • Adobe's Employees Are Just As Upset at the Company As Its Users: Report
  • Its getting real close and I like Affinity’s workflow much better. Theres a few small bugs here and there. If anything im a Freelance professional but its my hobby first. Ive used Photoshop/Lightroom, GIMP/RawTherapee in the past on the photography side and Inkscape on the Graphic design side but now I mainly use Designer 2 and Photo 2. Granted my workflow is probably a decent bit different than a studios and I dont know what specifcs a studio needs over something like my workflow. What sorta challenges did switching to Affinity present for your studio?

  • Stuck between an XSR900 or a z900rs
  • Its more of just how the bike feels when im on it. It feels solid and substantial has weight but still feels nimble. The places where you’re in contact with the bike feel thought out. The Z900 to me feels more raw and kinda plastic-y not necessarily like a toy but more like a well modified car that prioritizes performance over small details and comforts. Really it comes down to what you like the feeling of more to me its pretty much the top gear meme “that is brilliant, but I like this” If you can catch a demo day for each one I highly highly recommend it.

  • Stuck between an XSR900 or a z900rs
  • So I have a tracer 9 GT with the same CP3 engine and I gotta say its a real gem of an engine. The z900 may have an extra cylinder and its also fun to ride but i like the balance thst the 3 cyl brings its just more versatile? Both are great bikes but to me yamaha just feels a touch more refined

  • Leaky bags
  • Why not a recyclable cardboard tube like oats come in sometimes? Probably easier for logistics too when packaging (of course retooling all the equipment from like 1988 wouldnt be easy but its one and done)

  • Lithium-free sodium batteries exit the lab and enter US production
  • That explosion doesent seem much bigger than a firework thats smaller than the battery’s size. With as much as a car weighs and the amount we already do to protect batteries in electric cars i imagine the explosion from these could be easier to manage safely than a lithium fire. I also wonder how harmful the fumes are compared to lithium

  • Take-Two Interactive shuts down the Studios behind Kerbal Space Program and Rollerdrome
  • It has gotten better but man still so much undelivered. Im just sad and im tired of being sad. Im fully pledging to never buy a big publisher game unless it absolutely proves itself first and even then im still gunna be hesitant cause vote with your money and all that. Honestly outside of KSP2 Ive already been purchasing and playing mostly indie games for the last 2 years anyways

  • checkmate, big geology!!
  • You are right sadly :( but dont discredit yourself so much! A ton of people do listen and a ton of people think yall are cool! I think you’re cool. Its just that those people and I dont tend to be the people that have the resource to make decisions

  • Take-Two Reportedly Shutting Down Two Studios As Part Of Latest Layoffs - Report
  • I loved KSP 1 and I still do I just wanted some improved core engine refinements and really looked towards a new refreshed modding scene plus interstellar travel was an awesome idea for KSP (i know there were some mods) its funny cause I rarely actually went to space i liked building crazy planes. I learned to dock and went to mun/minmus a couple times but never actually made it to other planets without spawning myself there. I just enjoyed the game my way sorta. Plus more fluid multiplayer was something I really wanted to get into

  • checkmate, big geology!!
  • Thank you that was super informative. Is there anything that can be done to mitigate an impending eruption? Ive always heard that if one of the big super volcanoes goes it could be quite catastrophic for the entire world. Surely theres been some research into like pressure relief holes or something…antacid tabs?

  • Take-Two Reportedly Shutting Down Two Studios As Part Of Latest Layoffs - Report
  • I bought KSP 2 in its rough state cause I had hope that it would turn out good and cause I put so many many hours into the OG KSP but once again big publishers trample it with muddy shoes. I honestly feel like a big publisher cant release anything that doesent absolutely fuck the player since Cyberpunk. Almost all of my game purchased since that game have been indie games and its been easy not to look back

  • Looking for Ender 3 V2 Hot End and DD Extruder

    Hello! I havent printed too much, but have done enough to start looking at upgrades for my Ender 3 V2 with the stock V2.2 board. Mainly I've figured out that I want to go with a direct drive extruder and a more convenient hot end but as 3D printing has progressed a bit since I originally got my 3D printer to now I am having mild trouble on figuring out what is outdated information vs current. For example, im looking at something like a Micro Swiss DD with NG Revo hot end for simpler nozzle swaps but im not sure if there is a better solution.

    Currently I primarily print with PLA but I have some TPU I want to print with and I may want to dabble in more abrasive filaments and potentially in the future I may want to look into some sort of multi filament system similar to an AMS but that is much down the road.

    What inconsequential or surprisingly good thing can I get from Aliexpress?

    Im curious as I usually use the site very occasionally to get certain electronic parts or order from PCBway like I just picked up some cheap but infinitely better than stock gps antennas for my LoRa T beams and im about to get a set of also still cheap but much better than stock 915mhz antennas but i kinda wanna throw some other projects or weird thing in the cart with it. It doesent have to be hobby electronics with soldering and all that but bonus points if it is.

    These shell swaps really do be taking 5 hours

    pardon the aftermath

    EDIT: ExtremeRate is the company that made the shell. Pretty impressed
