I got tired of the money wall around cabinet design so I am working on https://cabinet.mycnc.app. Some very alpha features still but getting there.

Making cabinets is not that hard but the industry charges insane amounts of money for it. Since I have to make cabinets for two kitchens I invested in a Sienci Labs CNC so when the cabinets are done I'll have saved money and gotten a CNC out of it which I can then sell or use for other things.


I just stopped watching movies or anything on broadcast television. Problem solved.

If by renewables you mean lumber from Canada, then sure.


I assume you are referring to Drax? That should come under biomass, which is 2.5% currently. I don't think the practice is great but that's clearly not where the energy is coming from. 87.7% of UK energy generation at this moment is coming from solar and wind.


Sorry, what are you implying here? That people burn lumber from Canada to heat their homes?


They’re referring to the source of wood pellets for the Drax power plant i.e. this https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/feb/26/drax-pow...


Or we could let parents raise their own damn kids without making our lives worse. Parents can sign up for parental monitoring or better yet spend some time with their kids.


March 1st is now officially malicious compliance day.


No! Just No!


Windows Defender is flagging this as containing Sabsik.EN.A!ml


While cool, ultimately not usable due to the very limited hardware.


Limited hardware is exactly why it is usable. Many e-ink devices exist now so limiting factors such as refresh rates etc, need to be considered when developing apps for android etc nowadays.


They might be maining that it requires a specific ereader model rather than being generic, but I'm not sure that really applies either. Kindles, even any specific single model of kindle, are generally readily available.


Usable enough to run a Linux DE on it! I did so on my blog: https://nns.ee/kindle


https://sim.mycnc.app/ A CNC simulator that runs in the browser or as a PwA. I wrote this mostly for myself to compliment a g-code sender I am also working on https://mycnc.app/ . The simulator has some basic g-code and cut verification and analysis built in with more to come.

I am learning hobby CNC having come from the 3D printer world and I found that the CNC software is considerably more complex than today's 3D printer software.

CNC seems to be the next hobbyist maker boom with the likes of Makera and Nestworks having very successful Kickstarters.


There are millions if not billions of older devices. What we need is an OS that support those.


That would become a meaningless effort security wise as time goes on. The drivers and firmware will become outdated. OS updates are necessary but not sufficient. I get the e-waste / enviromental argument, and I think its very warranted to criticize OEMs for not providing long support times in the past. Apple and Google do this well in recent years, luckily.
