Is there any virtual pet device/app where you are the pet? in c/[email protected]

I have Finch set to auto-update, so I'm not sure if it gives you separate notifications for that.

Finch is pretty close. Free as well. It's intended to help with self care and mental wellness, could be a good fit for you.

We joke a lot but what is happening in the US is really scary. in c/[email protected]

My friends and family are feeling stirs of panic, and it has pushed many of us to start taking a more active role in making our voices heard. Letter campaigns to Congress, joining activist groups and participating in those groups, and a much higher level of alertness towards government action are just a few of the more obvious results and changes I've seen.

I fear that it won't be enough, but with young kids in our household we are trying to do what we can in nonviolent ways. The risk of prison or worse would take a huge toll on the little ones.

What's an Executive Order? Where is it spelled out what the do and how they're regulated? Can they be vetoed by another arm of government? in c/[email protected]

The problem arises when the person giving those orders authority hears "By order of the king" instead of "by directive of the president".

The US doesn't want a king, it was a big deal here about 250 years ago. Looking like it's gonna be a big reminder for the 250 anniversary.

Unless they're in the same stall, no privacy is being violated. And if they are in the same stall, that's a whole different matter anyway.

No reasonable person would be bothered by this, only these fascists and their ilk.

Why else would the orange be challenging the constitution? His current play of changing birthright citizenship is a practice range so he knows how to aim at his real targets.

Gross, it looks way too much like iOS for my taste. Glad I'm switching away from Google controlled android anyway, I'll be customized back to the old stuff if I have to.

Because in that syphilis riddled brain, the orange-blunder has had the brain-shart concept slip out of the diseased sections and into what passes for a consciousness, that by only having a state line, there is no border, and so he will have solved "the border crisis". This is not a rational human being we're dealing with, it's a geriatric puppet-dictator who very likely has some form of degenerative brain condition.

Also that moron represented by an eagle? I think a buzzard is more accurate, if we must stick to birds. Smells like death and eats whatever can't fight back, right down to the bones.

(Cool animal, but not a flattering image to be compared with.)

[Help] Does anyone know how to delete a 'Downloaded' controller config? (ttrpg.network)
 

I had 3 configs I was testing for No Man's Sky, and since the last couple updates the community configs are broken. If I launch the game those configs come up as totally empty of assigned controls. I can switch to a Hello Games config and it works fine. I can't seem to find any way to delete a configuration once it's been downloaded. I was hoping that deleting and re-download would fix the issue.

PSA: Nested Desktop Mode (ttrpg.network)
 

After seeing some folks noticing a comment I made elsewhere in this instance, I thought a full post would be best. For those who don't know, the Steam Deck has a feature called Nested Desktop, which allows fast access to Desktop mode without needing to leave Game Mode or reboot into and out of modes.

To use this, go into desktop mode, open the menu and use the search function to look for "Nested Desktop". Now right click and add that to Steam. When you boot into Game mode, you'll see a new item added called Nested Desktop, which you can open to access desktop mode while still in game mode.

I found out about this almost a week ago and so far I use it most for referencing my digital game guides or searching NMS portal codes while still gaming. It's pretty seamless and really opens up some nice options, like modding a game and being able to boot it faster while having Game mode controls available.

What is a Yocan Torch?

Introduction If you are a fan of vaping, then you may have heard of the Yocan Torch. This device is a portable e-nail that allows you to vaporize your favorite concentrates on the go. It is a popular choice among vaping enthusiasts because of its convenience, portability, and ease of use. In this article, we will take a closer look at what the Yocan Torch is and how it works.

What is a Yocan Torch? The Yocan Torch is a portable e-nail that is designed for use with concentrates such as wax, shatter, and oil. It is a small, handheld device that is powered by a rechargeable battery. The Torch is made up of two main components: the battery and the atomizer. The battery is the power source for the Yocan Torch. It is a rechargeable battery that can be charged using a USB cable. The battery has a capacity of 1100mAh, which is enough to provide several sessions of vaping before it needs to be recharged. The atomizer is the part of the Yocan Torch that heats up the concentrate and turns it into vapor. The atomizer is made up of a quartz dual coil (QDC) and a glass tube. The QDC is the heating element that heats up the concentrate, while the glass tube is where the vapor is produced.

How does the Yocan Torch work? To use the Yocan Torch, you first need to charge the battery. Once the battery is fully charged, you can attach the atomizer to the battery. To do this, simply screw the atomizer onto the battery until it is firmly in place. Next, you need to load your concentrate into the atomizer. To do this, remove the glass tube from the atomizer and place a small amount of concentrate onto the QDC. Be careful not to overload the atomizer, as this can cause it to clog and reduce its effectiveness. Once you have loaded your concentrate, replace the glass tube and turn on the Yocan Torch by pressing the power button five times in quick succession. The power button is located on the front of the battery and is marked with a Yocan logo. The Yocan Torch will begin to heat up the concentrate, and you will see vapor start to form inside the glass tube. To inhale the vapor, simply place your mouth over the mouthpiece at the top of the glass tube and inhale.

Conclusion The Yocan Torch is a convenient and portable e-nail that is perfect for vaping concentrates on the go. Its compact size and ease of use make it a popular choice among vaping enthusiasts. If you are looking for a reliable and efficient way to vaporize your favorite concentrates, then the Yocan Torch is definitely worth considering.

Five Men Convicted of Operating Massive, Illegal Streaming Service That Allegedly Had More Content Than Netflix, Hulu, Vudu and Prime Video Combined (variety.com)
 

It's disappointing that copyright infringement could cause these people to spend time in prison, but the predatory practices of the companies they where competing with are punished with no more then fines. A "cost of doing business" for the corporate aristocrats. This is the threat the upper class uses on the rest of us, and all too often do not suffer themselves.

Want a 3D printer in New York? Get ready for fingerprinting and a 15 day wait (www.nysenate.gov)

Want a 3D printer in New York? Get ready for fingerprinting and a 15 day wait

Assembly Bill A8132 has been assigned a "Same As" bill in the Senate: S8586 [NYSenate.gov] [A8132 - 2023]

I don't own a gun, I never have and I don't plan to at any time in the future. But if these pass in the NYS Senate and Congress, it would be required to submit fingerprints for a background check then wait 15 days, before you could own any "COMPUTER OR COMPUTER-DRIVEN MACHINE OR DEVICE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING A THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECT FROM A DIGITAL MODEL."

This isn't even going to stop any crimes from happening, for pity sakes regular guns end up in criminal charges all the time, regardless of background check laws. How about some real change and effective measures, rather then virtue-signaling and theater illusion for a constituency?

Finally an official diagnosis (ttrpg.network)
 

I was introduced to the potential for ADHD as an adult, and now at 33 I have my official diagnosis! Severe ADHD / Innatentive Presentation I've never been relived to get a diagnosis of severe anything before, but I feel like I can finally feel sure about why I've struggled with these symptoms for so much of my life. Now I can start learning how to deal with and accommodate my symptoms, rather then trying to wrestle this many-limbed thing in the dark of ignorance.

Trying to print with SLA, can I make more then these coin slugs? (ttrpg.network)
 

Right, so at a glance alot of the posts here are for FDM printing, and while I love my Ender 3 and have no problems with it (anymore...) I really want to get into resin printing. I have a 2 year old Elegoo Mars 2 Mono that I've used a handful of times, because each time I try to print a test model instead of something that looks like a chess piece, all I get is a circle of solid resin about the thickness of a US quarter. I'm kinda discouraged by this, since I know plenty of people get into resin printing and love the level of detail they can get on it. Yes, I know I can get similar details with FDM, and sometimes I do, but I want to expand my printing horizons as well. I've tried printing at different ambient temperatures, reslicing the model with different slicers, and warming the resin before use, but I can't seem to get more then a disk from my printer. Does anyone have some advice or insight into this issue?
