new toy

@SomaFMrusty@defcon.social the "surround" setting in openmpt (highly derided by actual composers) does exactly only that, sets a track's L and R out of phase. i naively used that a lot in my earlier songs until i realized

excellent firsthand account about the fabled Brazilian Macintosh 512k clone that never was and how it outperformed the eventual licensed product still years later in 1992: http://www.merlintec.com/lsi/mac512.html

@lmorchard if you don't mind the corners being open you could fold it like a paper toy

@lmorchard could get a sheet of acrylic professionally bent, wouldn't need to be complex if you're ok with the sides being open, and then you could even hinge it at the back

@suricrasia my only takeaway from my brief brush with The Corporate World is that figma is Kinda Neat

@lmorchard i am a big proponent that if you're going to buy chinese stuff might as well get it straight from the horse's mouth than fund a billionaire's third yacht

@lmorchard i know i took pictures but try as i might i cannot find them anymore

@lmorchard ooh, i'd done M5 screw + wingnut with regular PLA before. worked pretty well but i'm sure it wouldn't withstand shear force

light reading today

@arielmt i got a crummy portable deskjet (forget the model number) as a bundle with a retro win98 laptop i wanted to get on ebay and i was ready to just consider it as a paperweight but on a whim i bought cartridges for it and for how small and obviously cost-cut it is, it somehow still prints amazingly

oh well nevermind. this is already well documented. yeah they just badly scaled clarus when they started using her in print preview http://clarus.chez-alice.fr/history.php

@jsit looks like apple themselves got it wrong in 1991 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qc-8zQPwp20 that's probably where it started. but yeah, it's clearly a wrong nearest-neighbor rescale of the original
