schestowitz                    <p>Well, that’s it for the Form 3 teardown – from the exterior shell down to the lone galvanometer. I’ve had the privilege of court-side seats to observe the growth of Formlabs. There’s a saying along the lines of “the last 20% takes 80% of the effort”. Based on what I’ve seen of the Form series, that should be amended to “the last 20% takes 80% of the effort – and then you get to start on the product youFeb 02 11:30
schestowitzmeant to make in the first place”. It dovetails nicely into the observation that products don’t hit their stride until the third version (remember Windows 3.x?). From three grad students fresh out of the MIT Media Lab to a billion-dollar company, Formlabs and the Form series of printers have come a long way. I’d count myself as one of the bigger skeptics of 3D printing as a mass-production technology, but I hadn’t considered anFeb 02 11:30
schestowitzapproach like the LPU. I feel like the LPU embodies an audacious vision of the future of 3D printing that was not obvious to me as an observer about nine years ago. I’m excited to see where this all goes from here! </p></blockquote></li>Feb 02 11:30

schestowitzSounds like he just wants to replicate the monolithic OS platforms, and is pissed that pine64 is taking the more traditionally #Linux approach of supporting multiple #distros.Feb 02 17:34

schestowitz"The Barak Plan was a bad joke. East Jerusalem, inhabited by Palestinians, was to be annexed and the rest of the territory was to be cut up by settlement blocks and extraterritorial roads connecting them. What would have remained would have been a patchwork of fragmented land, much of it desert. Moreover, the question of water rights was also not fairly regulated."Feb 02 18:29

schestowitz@tuxmachines I don’t see why this is such a big issue. Frankly it pisses me off that every browser I use defaults to #Google search without explicitly asking me. You are buying into a package with #Microsoft 365. Presumably you would not be outraged that the default word processing app turned out to be MS Word. Anything that undermines Googles dominance is a good thing in my book. Better still don’t use Microsoft or Google!Feb 02 18:35

schestowitzThe criticism of Bernie Sanders' record on interventionism & militarism/war is valid. I'm a Bernie endorser, yet I wouldn't call him anti-war. That'd be intellectually dishonest. Still, I'd take "least pro-war" over the belligerence & jingoism of current & past admins any day.Feb 02 20:21
