It could be tidally locked to the sun too. Then days would truly cease to exist, you'd just have a hot side and a cold side.

Yes, it really is that bad. We have a resin printer at work and it has been banished to a different room due to the resin fumes. The table it sits on is perpetually sticky, and we go through twice as much IPA postprocessing the prints than we use in resin

It already exists... sort of.

Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead. Zombie survival roguelike, forked from the original cataclysm by whales. Also check out Cataclysm: Bright Nights which is a fork of CDDA that makes it more gamey like the original, and less like you're playing 2d arma.

Sunshine and moonlight are open source implementations of nvidia's game streaming protocol they created for the nvidia shield. You can use it to remotely use your computer from your phone, not just for games. But of course the primary application is game streaming. As long as the game can run on the host (sunshine) computer, you can remotely play it on the client (moonlight) device. I've used it to just launch steam in big picture mode and then select what I want from steam.

Lossless Cut FOSS, Crossplatform frontend for ffmpeg. Note that to do it losslessly, it will still be in mp3. If you need to transcode you can do that too, but like others have said you'll probably lose quality.

I mean, you can grind your own mirrors, how hard could it be? (Spoiler: very hard)

Near the bolt holes joining the two halves, you can see thin strips going across that overhang gap. Those eliminate local sagging without needing support material. The part could have been flipped 180 instead, but then the outer edge rim would be unsupported.

Those deep holes in plastic parts are always the worst. If you have a dremel you have 2 options. Either cut away enough of the top plastic that you can get at the screw to dremel a slot into the top, and unscrew it with a flathead screwdriver. Alternatively you could try dremel just below the head of the screw to cut the screw in half.

if you have a soldering iron you could also try heating the screw to melt the boss it's screwed into. You might have to cut/melt away plastic to access the screw and then apply light rension while heating so that it opens once the screw is hot enough.

The monoblock was a prototype watercooling block that interfaced with the cpu and gpu simultaneously. Normally if you wanted to watercool both components one would purchase seperate waterblocks for the cpu and gpu and then use plumbing in between the two.
