    Having replaced batteries on my pixel... The best trick ive found is a ziplock baggie full of near boiling water plopped on the screen until the glue loosens. Use a thin tool to br…

    Yep im the same way. Tried lots of types, settled on the fabriano dot grid glued pages. Most of my pages are just this dirt style, but its also nice to sometimes rip out a page and…

    I understand the need for this and like what youre doing. Ive tried to look before for a good app for this ans always been disappointed. I like the way you've deferred the map dire…

    This kit is how I discovered zometool ten years ago and still find it fascinating. Its amazing! Check out vZome and its associated discord. FOSS virtualzome builder and symmetry st…

    I've struggled with this too. I want to only use my phone but the quiet focus that a view finder gives me allows better attention to detail, the edges of the photo, and subtle alig…

    I think your method is perfect. Having to make notes and re-enter my settings is just the right amount of frustrating, that each time I'm tempted to buy it. I think most people who…

    Amazing – congratulations. I've been using the demo version of your product every six months or so since I first saw your post here. I Really appreciate that you've kept it availab…

    Appreciate the share. I've seen a compilation of these clips out of context and loved them. Never figured out where they came from. They really are amazing in striking the balance …

    Does ios not rely on hovering/mouse over for alt text or similar? Im mostly on windows but i wonder if theyll eventually concede a second gesture for "put cursor here"

    some of these style illusions I've seen drawn by hand before, but the lithopane ones are new to me. I'm sure the 3d printing lithopane community will love them

    I think also the negative comments here are missing how commonly closets are built incorrectly without the correct depth for a coat hanger. Not every day, but there are enough peop…

    Interesting! I like your triangle square pattern as well. I haven't seen that before. You may already know that in the landscape architecture world your versaille-like tilings are …

    Also had a pair of headphones for 10 years, Sony MDR 7506. I've replaced the pads several times. I think a lot of good corded headphones will last forever as long as you don't crus…

    Even this isn't true, though. 15,000 miles is 15 months of driving. I would bet a lot of people hit "something" that often, with a more serious incident every 5-10 years.

    Something like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtYRfMzmWFU could be a happy medium. Shapes that must be 3d printed but forms that are less fluff and more function.

    Check out the grasshopper primer. I haven't read it in a while but I used to claim it was written by programmers for non-programmers. Great getting-started guide. Rhino probably st…
