You can debate the need for AI compute satellites all you want(I’m not sure we need them either), but the science behind radiating heat away in space is well understood and comes down to knowing your heat load and calculating surface area. It’s not some unsolved problem.

You know the reason your Stanley or Hydroflask is so good at keeping your water cold is because there's a vacuum inside the walls of the thermos. Heat can't conduct in a vaccum. And "radiated" heat is ineffective at the temperatures processors operate at. This satellite will be like plugging in your gaming PC without a CPU cooler. It'll be dead in minutes.

Looking for two old flip phones - SPH-A600 and SPH-A920. Anyone still have one kicking around? The weirdest thing is I had the A920 in silver and it seems to be scrubbed from the internet. Only the blue version exists.

I've seen a few people trying to defend @BambulabGlobal's bullying of an open source developer over completely legal AGPL code use... Now @conservancy is raising funds to stop companies like Bambu Labs from abusing the AGPL and open source devs: sfconservancy.org/news/2026/…

Comprehensive Response to Bambu's AGPLv3 Violations

Software Freedom Conservancy (β€œSFC”) announces a new initiative regarding the software right to repair for users and consumers of 3D printers manufactured by Bambu Lab. After recent news of violati...

I should probably just buy one of those small boosters, but you have to admit this is a fun solution.

Can your PCB survive many G loads during space launch?

I could definitely see this being an infill method

Has anyone experimented with a 3D printing slicer where you generate little vertical voids, then every so often the head comes by and basically injects plastic down into the voids? I could picture it getting into the layer seams, and dramatically improving layer adhesion.

You should populate one of the corner boards to see if it works as expected anyway, then fix any mistakes and order it properly next time. Plus I don’t think that would have happened if you used PCBway and their manual review process. They catch everything

The absolute worst thing possible happened. I ordered the boards with a v-score so I could snap them apart into 9 separate boards, they did not come with it. I don’t even know where to go from here, so incredibly bummed. I guess I will have to order some more boards.

Sounds bad, but buying a $5 coffee every day costs you $0.20 an hour. Or 5% the hourly cost of your home. For a coffee.

if you spend $1,000,000 on a 30-year mortgage, your home costs you $3.80 per hour

β€œThe top 1% have so much more wealth than the bottom 99% of Canadians that they (reluctantly) pay more than them combined in taxes” is not the flex you think it is.

Don’t get gaslit. I pay more taxes than anyone. Almost all taxes come from top 1% earners. We pay for all the stuff you like and that’s fine. Government workers are the ones who don’t pay their fair share (they are your employees). Ask more of them.

This was the first thing me and a few friends did when we got the Pi 2 at the place we were working at

If you take a picture of a Raspberry Pi 2 with a strong flash it will reboot. A specific power regulator (U16) was chip-scale packaged to save on cost and die space. Since the silicon is basically naked, a xeon flash can cause a massive (but very short) current spike.
