A valid point. But the result is that over a pretty short period of time. These C developers will find delays in how quickly their code gets accepted into stable branches etc. So will be forced to make clear documentation into how the refactoring effects other elements calling the code. Or move on altogether.

Sorta advantageous to all and a necessary way to proceed when others are using your code.

Very Much this ^.

All fines do is force too poor to walk when they cannot afford the fine or other options. If that is the goal, free/cheap access to pools and sports centres as we had in the 70s was a better solution.

If the goal is to stop driving. Points on the licence. And providing practical alternatives.

I will add as a narrowboater.

I found towpaths also have this issue with definition of surface.

I am legally blind. (Some vision but bad)

I have a few times tried to add more ditail to areas of towpath that will help the others like me know what to expect before mooring.

Seems anything that improves this will help in your issues as well.

Wow someone have enouth fuck about the fuck I gove. To write an app to monitor it.

Pity I dont give enouth fucks to install it.

What happans next?

McDonalds releases a new burger!

Because some users are putting that data on Linux. So they want Linux to be killed.

They can’t change grub. But they sure as hell can convince micro$org to search for and nuke it.

Of course no idea if this happened. Just answering why they would might want to.

Short term. The issue is going to be how to drill and inspect the water. While garrenteeing no earth organic contamination.

Untill folks are 100% sure no life at all exists. Any other considerationvwill be on hold.

And proving a negative is going to take ages before folks are happy.

Ibdont. My brother dose.

So im going to give meshroom a try with my android phone.

If that dont work ill get my brother to come up to the boat.

Wow tjeubare cheap now.

Ill gove that a try

Ive used it alot. But far feom expertly

But not seen that. Likely cos I have never looked :)

Ill have a look at it. Thanks.

Cool. At the time, it was one of the best. Although, I also liked sun-os.

I also worked with VMS a lot after uni. Hated using it. But had to respect the ideals behind it.

But watching the growth of Linux has been fantastic. In 2024. It does seem to have out evolved all the others. ( Evolved, defined as developed the ability to survive by becoming so freaking useful. )

I am starting to think it is time for a micro kernel version, though.

Was a few years later for me.

Not DMU by any chance?

Late 1990s my uni had unix workstations HPUX.

So all projects etc were expected to be done on those. Linux at the time was the easy way to do it from home.

By the time I left uni in 98. I was so used to it windows was a pain in the butt.

For most of the time since I have been almost 100% linux. With just a dual boot to sort some hardware/firmware crap.

Ham radio to this day. Many products can only do updates with windows.

With the amount of open bed, cheaper printers, a lot. Keeping them inside does not prevent them from entering the environment. As well we need to breath to start with, so airflow will take it outside. Add vacuum cleaning and waste disposal. Unless the plastics are trapped and melted into larger clumps. They get into the environment. This is why they are so dangerous.

Even with enclosed printers. Unless very well filtered and some plan for disposal of that filter that prevents this. It’s just an extra delay.

Some plastic types are better than others. And I honestly think development of thermo plastic replacements is better than stopping 3d printing.

3D printing is a broad subject. Covering most materials.

It is just current home printing that is mainly plastics. Because the cost rises with other materials. Plastics allows $200 or more printers.

But it dose not have to stay bad. We are starting to see more and more research into effective plastic replacements. And the expansion of cheap 3d printing can theoretically speed up the distribution of those alternatives.

“ThE sCiEnTiStS wIlL jUsT cLeAn It Up AfTeR”

Yep I know nothing below will happan thanks to our world political motives But. .

If we charge for manufacture. By dramatically increasing the cost to use these chemicals. To fund said science. We win both battles. Reduce desire to use, while increasing investments on alternatives. And fund clean up.

Multihead printing is still in the early days.

Agreed but then so was 3D printing as a whole 10 years ago. It is open source design started by Rep Rap that put us where we are now.

Im a about to be beginner. Recently retired through disability. So finally have time to play with the subject. So yes, at some point I’d like to come back to you and take you up on your offer. ATM im saving to buy a Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro. And from there I have some projects to do then will start building my own design based on an open design I looked at in the past. (cant remember the name of my head)

As long as the basic connections are an open design.

It would be a great step towards multihead printing.

Lets face it long term to gain the full ability of 3D printing. It will need to move to a multi material design. And that is likely to require the ability to change tool types mid-production.

The issue that layout containers are often unable to display large fonts on the widgets when certain restrictions are enforced in the layout. So, without giving time to try very large fonts. To Many developers never discover their applications just cannot be read by visually impaired people.

Unfortunately this is an issue for anyone visually impaired.

People just do not stop to think how difficult their UX is if people need very large fonts.
