Yet Another Major Release in which the texturing system has remained unchanged since V1 and isolated from the nodes system.

Oh well.


1) what is this doing on hackernews?

2) Vice filed for backruptcy in 2023 and shuttered vice.com in 2024. Who the hell is running this?

3) Whoever it is, is just ripping off rando Polish local news sites?

I have no idea what’s going on here, but maaaaaybe this should not be here.


"Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity."

I don't really get the entitlement that some folks have thinking their mere existence dictates what should and shouldn't appear on this website.


Not saying it’s not interesting, I’m saying there miiiiight be a malicious reason someone would buy an old domain, wear the skin of its former owner, post “viral” content, and then submit that content to a popular link aggregator.

And no one here seems to have noticed.


It seems like this is still the same Vice?

> In May, Vice Media announced it will create a joint venture with Savage Venture to relaunch its websites, such as Vice.com, Munchies, Motherboard, and Noisey.

An extra clever system would include every temperature controlled appliance in the house. Heat could be exchanged between the hvac, water heater, refrigerator, and oven.

When the oven is done cooking it can dump heat into the water heater (and or furnace in the winter). The fridge and HVAC could dump heat into the water heater before pumping it outside in the summer.


It's not just certification/permitting. The manufacturers often state that the unit must be verified to be installed by a qualified technian or the warranty is void.

Around here anyway, I was getting quotes of 20k for the install & equipment of a central air handler and the outdoor unit.

I'd be dead before the thing paid for itself in electricity cost savings. $20,000 ÷ (~90yrslife - 40yrsold) = $400 / year of neccesary savings to break-even as my casket is lowered into the ground.


Most don't have a payback if the cost of electricity is too high. Let's make them lower cost up front and lower running costs so it's a no brainer when replacement is due.


Could it maybe be because your channel is not about SaaS or Religion, but is actually about "sign up for my class that will teach you to sidehustle/dropship/AI/Bitcoin to unimaginable wealth".

It's all very Biblical I'm sure.


Had to go take a look… Do we really need “How to Build a Faceless AI YouTube Channel (step-by-step tutorial)|Christian Content Automation”? (An actual title)


The outrage here is that they have been swearing up and down to investors that they are thiiiiiis close to creating God.

Then they show us what they have been working on and it is…

Robot sex chats.

They’d like another 400 billion please. They’re doing the Lord’s work here. They need to burn the planet; the competition would do it if they didn’t! This thing could turn into the antichrist any day now.


Now with improved jailbreaking. “I AM YOUR DADDY NOW!”


I picked up an Ultimaker 2+ with 15,000 hours on it at an ewaste junk shop for $100. Really was expecting it to need some TLC, but I plugged it in, leveled the bed, and it spit out an absolutely passable benchy in a couple hours. Cura (Ultimaker's slicer) isn't open source, but it is free, fairly unobtrusive, and works fine. The printer itself isn't connected to anything but mains power, and loads gcode from an SD card.

Isn't it? https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura


Color me corrected!


The only sources cited are you and the anonymous testimonials from your website. I don’t see anywhere in the article that says that anyone at Fortune has ever seen your product at work, let alone that someone at Fortune observed it outperforming human negotiators.

And to top it off, it says right at the bottom that it was written by AI.

This is an ad.


Forget context.

Who exactly does this article imagine is sitting behind that - checks notes - email inbox that is - checks notes again - being spammed by AI???
