Listen here, Little Dicky
  • Possibly you just had to hear it more than once.

    I learned it the other way around since my physics teacher was speedrunning the math sections to get to the fun physics stuff and I really got it after hearing it the second time in math class.

    But yeah: it often helps to have practical examples and it doesn't get any more applicable to real life than d/dt.

  • Einführung in das Denken des Anarchismus - Vorlesung von Robert König

    Hab es hiernoch nicht gepostet gesehen. Ist ne ziemlich interessante, explizt philosophische -orlesung zum Anarchismus. Sind echt sehr spannende Sachen mit dabei. Auch, wenn man schon alle "Grundlagen über Anarchismus" auswendig kennt.

    Selfhosting DJ sets? (Soundcloud-style)

    Hi!

    I have a subsonic instance running but I rarely listen to Albums. Stuff I really like are DJ performances like by the channel The Moment.

    So I thought: why not download and self-host them before Google makes Youtube sign-in only, (like Elon and Facebook did).

    That stuff is probably quite hard to organize. But the type of music simply breaks the common services, like Jellyfin, or Subsonic.

    I know of funkwhale. But I'd like to keep the contents private. I just wanna listen to music at work (so being open to the web is a plus). I thought funkwhale is a bit too... "social" for me. I'm a (re)uploader, not creator.

    You got any ideas? Maybe a youtube-cloner with audio-only support? (I know how to download videos already)

    Edit: Of course, I'd download the sets legally, e.g. from their patreon discord, or whatever. ;)

    Also: I know that restricting it to my VPN would be ideal for security and legality reasons. But that's a bit inconvenient. And I want to check my options.

    Tool for simple, local face swapping (ideally without a beefy CUDA card)

    Hi!

    A bit of background/motivation: Sharing photos of protests can be an important part of the PR of political organizations. However, not everyone feels safe sharing their faces in connection to political organizing. That's why usually, faces are pixellated, or people wear face covering masks (which might be illegal on protests in some juristictions). Pixellated/hidden faces are quite ugly to normies, though, which can reduce the effectiveness of the publication.

    So I had this idea: What if instead of pixelating the faces, I run some CV software on the image and all the faces get swapped with the faces of Hedy Lamarr, Diego Luna, or JC Denton. I remember that Snapchat could do live faceswaps with the selfie cam ten years ago, so some desktop software like that shouldn't be too hard to find in 2025, right? /j

    Unfortunately, all the stuff I managed to find was some computer science projects in which you train some monster model with one hell of a dataset of each face you want to replace/emplace (which defeats the purpose of anonymizing political activists). Or some obnoxious AI startup which is waaaaay too busy sucking off Elon Musk and/or Sam Altman. I don't want to give my money/data to some doomed AI startup which ends up selling our likenesses to the NSA.

    TL;DR: Is there some kind of desktop software which detects faces in an image and swaps them with another face? It's ok if there's only a framework (as long as it's not as bad as all the horrible OpenCV results you find in online tutorials).

    Edit: I found something that I can work with

    Help please: heating block gooed up with PLA

    I got a new Biqu H2V2 for my Ender 3 pro , since myold hotend started getting unreliable and that was a great excuse for yet another upgrade.

    I wasn't happy with the carriage holder I printed, so I wanted to print a new one. After afew hours of printing, I needed to abandon one part, since it was incredibly messy with blobs of PLA gooped on the print. Since I needed the new carriage mount, I didn't think anything off it and simply abandoned that part and continued the other ones.

    Today, I saw that the heating block is completely gooped up with PLA (see pictures). So now, I got two questions:

    1. How should I remove that gunk? I was thinking o| carefully peeling of everything without the silicone sleeve while the hotend is at a low PLA-bending temp, like 150°C, or 175°C.
    2. What caused this? Flowrate too high (the prints look the part)? Too fast extrusion? Heatcreep?

    Thanks in advance. (:

    Any resources on using a 3D printer as a plotter cutter

    Hi!

    I've daydreamed about getting a cutter plotter without actually planning on really getting one. Too expensive and shelfspace-consuming for something that I'm not going to actually use that often.

    Then I remembered that I could "just" mount a dragknife on my Ender-3 pro to do the job (maybe get one of these fancy quick-toolhead-changing systems as an excuse to tinker with CANbus, or something ;).

    After a bit of online search, I found that I'm hardly not the first one with that idea. I've found a few videos, posts on reddit and files on thingiverse/printables, but nothing too in-depth. So I wanted to ask y'all if you know any resources to check out on this. Some github-pages style homepage of someone would be ideal, but I'm not too hopeful that there's something out there if I haven't found it yet.

    Things I think I've found out:

    • Roland Cutting Plotter Vinyl Cutters are apparently the way to go. With 45° for vinyl.
    • I can use gcodetools to create gcode from svgs. The exact details aren't clear to me, though. Probably gonna have to create a klipper macro for this.
    • I can simply attach a cutter to my toolhead, or use something like the BTT hermit crab for a more fancy approach

    Things I'm still not sure how to do:

    • If I'm using a BL-Touch - how should I handle z-homing? Can Klipper use BL-Touch for z-homing with an endstop-failsafe? Should I just monitor the print by hand?
    • Is there a comprehensive guide on the materials?

    Do you have any experience on that topic?

    Question: Do you know any simple Faceswap software for Desktop?

    Hi! I'm sometimes handling photos of people who wouldn't like their real faces shown. But pixellation isn't a very PR-friendly practice if you want to publish the images (e.g. photos of a protest).

    So I remembered that ages ago, back when I used snapchat that they had this simple faceswap feature that was able to run on a simple smartphone and I was wondering:

    Is there a simple, easy to set up program that takes the faces of a picture and faceswaps them with another, available face?

    I was thinking of getting a random face from this-person-does-not-exist.com and superimpose it on the faces of the photo. This way, it's protecting the identity of the people on the photos, while keeping the photo easy to look at (plus, no one else's likeness will be used unconsentually).

    After a quick google, I found faceswap.dev, but then I read stuff about extracting, training and converting and deemed it overkill. The feature I was thinking of was done for two people swapping their faces on a live video feed on a phone. I don't want to go broke by throwing a GTX 5090 on that problem.

    Do you know any problem on Desktop (or maybe on android, or a selfhosted service) that can do that kind of thing? IMHO, it shouldn't be too hard.

    Any source for hellofresh recipes?

    A friend gifted me a few hellofresh boxes once and I quite liked the recipes. But I don't care about subscription services to get overpriced groceries delivered if the supermarket is a 5 minutes walk away.

    Is there any collection on the recipes online? At least in Germany, recipes aren't even copyrighted, so it wouldn't even be illegal to distribute them here (AFAIK, IANAL).

    Propaganda bad

    Description comic of four panels:

    Panel 1: Canary being offered a copy of Peter Kropotkin's "The conquest of bread" it's angry and screaming "GET THAT PROPAGANDA OUT OF MY FACE!"

    Panel 2: It chomps on the book

    Panel 3: It tastes the book

    Panel 4: It's full of bliss. The Anarchy- and mutual aid symbols are floating above its' head.
