Stop using Telstra then. There’s an abundance of NBN resellers who sell better packages for cheaper than Telstra. At this point Telstra is just for old people who don’t want to change the services they’ve always been with.
This is the sloppiest slop that has slopped onto HN in a while.
The amount of this type of crap getting upvoted lately makes me think HN is probably getting a bot-vote problem like reddit has. I can’t imagine HN members actually upvoting this obvious AI slop?
I’ve owned half a dozen printers (Prusa, Bambu, and Creality) and help manage a hackerspace with a print farm of mixed brands, and I won’t personally touch any brand other than Prusa now for actually getting prints done.
There’s plenty of other printers that can do the same or better and/or cheaper if you want “building and managing the printer” to be half the hobby, which is a totally fair thing and can be lots of fun if you’re into tinkering, but for a printer that just prints things as a tool there’s absolutely nothing close to Prusa and they’re worth every cent.
I find it completely unreadable and give up within a paragraph or 2 every single time.
I say that as someone who uses LLMs daily too, and isn't a hater of them. Nothing wrong with using an LLM to help come up with content wording or to proof-read your writing etc etc, but just copy-pasting LLM output directly into a blog is lazy and instantly signals that it's not worth my time to read it.
> We even name things after him, like carnivorous plants (Nepenthes attenboroughii), the whole genus Sirdavida, a hawkweed (Hieracium attenboroughianum), ... more than 50 taxa in all.
I assumed there’d be 1 or 2 would be, but 50+ is wild. I just went down the rabbit hole of “things named after Sir David Attenborough” and it’s a lot!
What issues do you have? I use Inkscape on Mac almost every day and lately hit very few bugs. I think a lot of them have been fixed in the last year or so.
It used to be almost unusable with all the UI bugs (can't close tabs when you open them, can't resize the window without panes bugging out or the app crashing, etc).
I get the occasional crash where it just closes completely for no reason, but very rarely in the last year.
I'll have to see if I can get this working with our vevor vinyl plotter, as ink cut hasn't worked for a long time now and there doesn't seem to be any way to use the aliexpress/vevor vinyl plotters without paid proprietary software currently.
EETree LLC seems to be a shell company owned by EETree Info & Tech Limited in China (https://www.eetree.cn).
I'm not sure what that means as far as payment processing etc, apparently sellers were all cut off with money owing and still have no explanation.
Also the AI-generated blog post on the Tindie site (under the name/account of assumedly-previous staff?), and the post above that says absolutely nothing about what's actually going on...
It looks from the outside like a Chinese tech blog just randomly bought Tindie, broke the site while moving it to their own servers, and now are trying to figure out how to run it?
Yes, because a majority just use a CSS framework to save time, and all the big/common frameworks have put a fair bit of effort into their default colours and typography.
I would rather go back to when all side projects used Bootstrap than this purple-on-purple-with-glowing-purple mess of stuff we have now.
It’s SO bad. It makes me not want to use my phone anymore and physically go get my laptop if I’m chatting/messaging someone.
It’s probably the worst typing experience I’ve had since resistive-touch screens on PDAs. At least with them you could still type what you intended to though, just slowly.
I have a few ePaper picture frames that don't use any power, and when you tap your phone to them it uses the power-over-NFC to boot itself and update the photo you send to it. It's such a cool idea and something I always felt like could be used more for displays that don't need to update very often.
