Other issues:

1. Rate limiting is an incrementing number in the same config file. Just reset it to 0 and keep trying.
2. “UseBiometricAuth” is a boolean, also in the same file. Set it to false and it just skips that step.

Oh my god what. Did they let Claude write this? I mean… fucking hell…

Also a robotics nerd; very curious what you are referring to when you say BD’s CGI videos - as far as I am aware, their content is at very worst robots running prescripted routines, not actual CGI.

Oh for fuck’s sake.

Edit: “US naval blockade of Iran’s ports is ‘a clumsy and ignorant decision.’” So Iran is just going to do it themselves, to show the US how it’s done??

Iran also just attacked some indian ships transiting the strait, so there’s that fun complicating factor…

Emails seeking more information and comment were sent Thursday to spokespersons for the federal agency, the Chinese Embassy in Washington, D.C., and its consulate in San Francisco.

Unfortunately there aren’t many details - hopefully there’s a followup about the claim Chinese academics have a history of being harassed in seattle, that needs expanding on if it’s a pattern. Huge number of Chinese academics come thru there.

Once again you are doing the antisemitic thing where you conflate antizionism with antisemitism.

No, that one was just a pun.

But it being a hypothetical zionist conspiracy doesn’t change anything about your zeal to dismiss this on shaky grounds, or that you are in fact getting very heated about a literal jewish conspiracy. Like that’s just what’s happening here. They may be zionist jews, but you’re still leveling the accusation that those voters were intentionally pushing a pro-israel narrative and using that as justification for your own position being right. The “jew” part is really secondary to the “conspiracy” bit.

Canary is still a bad source - and even setting that aside, this is just a bad article (for the reasons already given). There are many other groups reporting on this story with much less vaguery and spin - even the secret zionist BBC coverage is somehow far better than what the canary has presented here.

“Oh fuck off” is a great way to start a rebuttal, wheeeeeee.

Anyways my point was that you didn’t actually move to address anything else in that thread, you locked in on Israel being involved and used that to reinforce your dismissal of the claims. You also dismiss the other arguments in a hugely biased way, painting it as 50% wishy-washy reasons and 50% people who agree with you. You’re even still trying to use the assumed existence of a jewish conspiracy (that people are seeking to misrepresent antizionism) as justification for the retention of an, at very best, deeply flawed news source.

I don’t think you’re an antisemite or w/e, to be clear - but I do think that you’re so biased against Israel (and fair enough, fuck Israel) that you’re willing to defend things that you really shouldn’t be defending just because they stand in opposition to the Israeli sphere. If you dont believe me, look at how you presented the voters - a source being viewed by 50% of people as untrustworthy is horrendously terrible but that’s the entirely hypothetical threshold you used to defend your use of a canary link.

So… the four other examples of The Canary publishing fake stories given in that same post - do you want to comment on those, or just keep yelling about the jews…?

That seems like a large generalization - my friends apt. in a major city has 100 gbps, my house in bumfuck has 1 gig fiber, my neighbor has 5mbps DSL. It’s pretty variable and enshittificiation is for sure an issue, but you can still absolutely find good ISPs in major american cities. It’s not that dire.

“In the US, 100 years is a long time. In the EU, 100 miles is a long distance.”

Old joke, but it really does highlight the largest fundamental cultural difference. Things like trying to explain how grudges that were formed in the 19th century and are indeed still the driving force behind political trends, or how accusing me of political indifference because I’m not in DC protesting is like accusing someone in portugal of not caring about world politics because they didn’t drive to eastern Ukraine for a protest…

I have it and use it regularly, but yeah - deskproto does not support true 4-axis toolpaths, they just run 3+1 (or 3+1+1 for their 5-axis paths). And unfortunately there’s no compensation built into their toolpaths, they don’t really have any QoL things like adaptive toolpaths (or even things like continuous pocketing), their acceleration control is -garbage- so you really have to be careful doing anything difficult like copper, the list goes on.

Honestly the tl;dr is that it works fine if you’re using a CNC router, and you’re going to have a pretty rough time if you’re using a milling machine.

Unfortunately there are essentially no FOSS programs able to produce engineering parts, and even fewer linux-native CAM programs at all. It’s really a huge gap in the FOSS world (driven largely by it being an incredibly difficult problem to solve)

Here’s the original article in case anyone was curious. Gives more details and USAToday’s utterly garbage mobile site is somehow still better than whatever the hell the independent is doing

This is a bubbler (a bubbler-brand bubbler, too!):

iirc from the last time this came up, they were super popular in the “bubbler”-using regions so the name stuck around to describe all drinking fountains, not just bubblers.

“If you won’t let us open it, we’ll close it” I just. Iran can’t keep it closed, the US proved that. The US can’t keep it blockaded, Iran proved that. God damn, all this idiotic posturing would be fucking hilarious if it werent for all the dead people.

The RIM-7 doesn’t even have that justification for being green; its a short range anti-missile (and super cost effectively, anti-drone…) system. It isn’t used to blow people up directly.

So he finally gets something even an infant could spin into something his base would consider a “victory” out of this whole Iranian travesty and he immediately blows it in a fit of ego???

I just. I don’t even know what to say about this one beyond “god fucking damn this guy is just constantly finding new depths of stupid to plumb”

Oh nooo, my pride my pride etc. etc.

Hey listen, I’ll happily take being able to correct your cringe pro-america propaganda without risking your tediously damp ire in response. Sounds like an absolute win to me, please feel free to block away.

Oh no you’re still saying mean things about americans to try and bait me how will I surviiiiive oh my wounded pride oh u so mean how dare u.

Seriously it’s getting embarassing to watch you behave like this. This is getting under your skin to the point that you’re even starting to sound like trump. Just stop dude, or I shall be forced to mock you a second time.

Ooo, declaring victory instead of addressing any of the substance, trump will be so proud of you!

Anyways I think you’ve demonstrated there’s nothing of value to be gained from entertaining your ravings, blockin’ ya (actually no, on second thought just taggin’ ya as a moron in cass I see you trying to pull this BS on anyone else) and moving on.

Oh my gosh you’re back! How brave! And with fresh, nearly plausible denials over just making a mistake.

Listen even if you were talking about the AP article, which you clearly weren’t, it was still obviously not the article I was talking about. Just… own the mistake, dude. Maybe we could get somewhere if you were capable of that kind of reflection. As it stands tho, all my previous points about the futility of me discussing anything with you stand proudly undaunted.

Alas though, ultimately your strategy of “start by repeatedly insulting the other person and then act all huffy and stomp your lil’ feet when they refuse to play your game” continues to not win me over. But good luck next time!
