@brianokken Are you going to be free sometime next week?

I'm going to be in Portland for #Teardown2025 on Tuesday through Sunday evening.

Hey. It was a pleasure meeting you at pycon.

I mean, I'd love to make sponsored content by Formlabs, particularly if they're sending over $10K printers, for "review".
This is how bad HN has gotten in a snapshot.

I wish #Meshtastic had a better routing protocol.

It doesn't do a great job with actual message routing it turns out.

So I tried sanding the copper boards last night with 80 grit sand paper to try to knock off the oxide layer. But it seems like it worked worse. The copper easily reflects the laser away.

I think the solution is to tarnish the copper then ablate it.

Okay. I might have to take it back. I rebooted Fusion and it's fine. Sorry Tim Cook.

Okay, so Fusion just sucks at some point.

It just sucks less on a windows box

But GPU graphics performance is noticeably better on those minisforum boxes. And it seems more stable as well frankly.

But tonight I was fighting fusion with weird geometries that forced me to use things like rotating things 179.99 degrees instead of 180.

Okay. So Autodesk Fusion sucks on a mac M4 pro. If you're going to buy a Mac M4 pro with the idea that you're going to get a good Autodesk Fusion experience, think again.

I'm getting better performance from a Minisforum AMD cpu/gpu from either last year or the year before.
