Apple threatens to kill FaceTime and iMessage in the U.K in c/technology@beehaw.org
[–] amotoohno@beehaw.org 115 points 1 year ago (6 children)

I think the headline is framing this wrong. Apple is not threatening to kill these services.

Apple is refusing to break their services just to accommodate broken, stupid laws written by a broken, stupid parliament.

I think we might have broken @dansup (fosstodon.org)
 

These messages are from Daniel Supernault, primary maintainer of Pixelfed.

I don’t want to recap the FediDrama here (drama recaps have a way of becoming drama themselves), but I suspect it’s the reason he’s taking a break.

I’ve never met @dansup but I know he’s contributed so much to the Fediverse and OSS communities. I am still a newb myself (Twexit era). But - for the good of the OSS community - would it be too much to ask we show some respect for the pioneers who got us here?

Filament Dryers in c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

The number of photos I’ve seen of completely melted filament rolls, due to either poor oven thermostats or inattentive users … I cannot endorse this technique.

If you’re on a budget, probably better to just power up your heated bed, with a box over top, and dry your spool inside there.

Repurposed food dehydrators seem to rate highly, if you can find a used one for cheap.

I ended up biting the $40 bullet and grabbing a Filadryer S2 when it was on sale.
