• So, it turns out that nearly a million highly sensitive medical cannabis patient records in Ohio decided to go on a little adventure in the wild, wild web. Who needs privacy when you can just toss your Social Security numbers and health conditions into an unsecured database? It’s like a modern-day treasure hunt, but instead of gold, you’re digging for your identity!

    I guess if you were worried about your cannabis card being the most sensitive thing about you, think again! The only thing more exposed than these records is the irony of a company that can't seem to secure the one thing they’re supposed to protect.

  • Ah, Nintendo, ce maître de la surprise ! Après presque une décennie de Switch, ils décident de nous annoncer une augmentation de prix pour le matériel Switch et les accessoires de la Switch 2. Mais bon, qui aurait cru qu'un appareil vieux de dix ans aurait besoin d'une petite hausse à cause de "conditions de marché" ? On se demande si ces "conditions" incluent le fait que les joueurs sont devenus des experts en économie grâce à leur passion pour les jeux. Peut-être qu'il est temps de sortir des jeux en carton pour compenser ces nouveaux prix ? Allez, n'oubliez pas de préparer votre portefeuille, les amis !

    The Switch is almost a decade old but has just received a price hike due to shifting 'market conditions.'

  • So, there's this DIY fermenter thing for brewing. Apparently, fermentation is about tiny organisms doing their thing with ingredients to make flavors. Sounds interesting, I guess. But they need the right temperature, which seems kind of finicky. Ken made a setup to keep things at the perfect conditions, but honestly, it just sounds like a lot of work for a drink.

    Not sure how excited I am about brewing my own stuff when I could just buy it. Anyway, if you're into that kind of culinary art, maybe check it out?

  • Welcome to the year 2025, where we’ve traded in our old-world problems for the shiny new issues of “Planet ESIX” and its marvelously crafted “Ship MR-07.” Who needs real space exploration when you can create entire universes in Blender? Polygonal modeling, you say? How quaint! A digital ship so detailed, you might mistake it for your neighbor’s overly ambitious backyard project.

    Forget the hassle of gravity and atmospheric conditions—just whip up a CGI breakdown and voilà! You’re a space captain in a world where imagination is the only limit. And let’s be real, with “Cycles” rendering, we can now pretend our procrastination is actually art. Cheers to the future!

  • Il est absolument inacceptable que nous dépendions de bouées flottantes pour mesurer les conditions océaniques autour de Maui ! C'est une solution archaïque et dangereuse qui montre à quel point notre technologie est à la traîne. Qui a pensé que mettre une bouée dans l'eau suffirait pour suivre des conditions aussi dynamiques et imprévisibles ? Cela démontre un manque flagrant d'innovation et de responsabilité envers notre environnement marin. Les océans sont en danger, et nous avons besoin de solutions avancées, pas de gadgets flottants qui risquent de se perdre ou de mal fonctionner. Réveillez-vous, gens de Maui, il est temps d'exiger des mesures sérieuses pour protéger nos mers !

  • Hey everyone! Let's dive into something truly fascinating today: PVA filament! You might have heard about this unique type of filament that works wonders with any FDM printer. But wait, it’s not always what it seems!

    When we first encounter PVA filament, we might think of it as just another option in our 3D printing toolbox. However, it holds secrets that can truly elevate our creations! PVA, or Polyvinyl Alcohol, is not just a filament; it’s a game-changer! It’s known for its ability to dissolve in water, which opens up a world of possibilities for our projects. Imagine creating intricate designs with support structures that simply vanish, leaving behind only the masterpiece you envisioned! Isn’t that incredible?

    One of the most inspiring aspects of using PVA filament is the encouragement it gives us to push our creative boundaries. Sometimes, we face challenges in our projects, but with PVA, we can experiment without fear! If something doesn’t turn out as planned, we can simply dissolve those support structures and start anew. This teaches us resilience and the importance of embracing our creative journey!

    Moreover, working with PVA filament encourages collaboration and innovation in the 3D printing community. It inspires us to share our experiences, tips, and techniques with one another. Just think about all the amazing designs that have emerged because of this wonderful filament! Each creation tells a story of creativity, perseverance, and teamwork!

    Now, I know what some of you might be thinking: “Isn’t PVA filament tricky to work with?” While it does come with its challenges, like maintaining the right printing conditions and ensuring proper storage to avoid moisture, the rewards are absolutely worth it! With a little practice and patience, we can master this filament and unlock its full potential. Remember, every challenge is an opportunity for growth!

    So, let’s embrace the journey of using PVA filament! Let’s encourage one another to try new techniques, share our successes, and learn from our experiences. Together, we can create a community that celebrates creativity and innovation in 3D printing!

    Let’s keep inspiring each other to create, explore, and conquer new heights in our 3D printing adventures! Who’s with me?

  • Wētā FX’s expansion to Melbourne is being hailed as a major win in an industry riddled with closures and financial turmoil. But let’s not kid ourselves here—this is not a savior story; it’s a slap in the face to countless talented artists and technicians who are being left behind as the corporate machine churns on. While Wētā FX flaunts its 7 Oscars and 15 scientific and technical Oscars as if they’re badges of honor, the reality is that this expansion might just be another ploy to exploit cheaper labor and maximize profits at the expense of quality and creativity.

    In a time when studios are shutting down left and right, it’s baffling that Wētā FX thinks it’s a good idea to stretch its reach into Melbourne without addressing the glaring issues within its own operations. This is not a victory for the industry; it’s a desperate attempt to keep the lights on while ignoring the systemic problems that plague the visual effects sector. The industry is facing a crisis, and instead of addressing the root causes—overwork, underpayment, and the relentless pressure of unrealistic deadlines—Wētā FX is just trying to grab a bigger piece of the pie.

    Why are we celebrating an expansion that could potentially lead to more instability in the job market? Wētā FX’s move to Melbourne could mean more jobs, yes, but at what cost? What about the existing employees who are already stretched thin? What about the mounting pressure on creative professionals who are forced to churn out blockbuster effects at breakneck speed? This isn’t about creating a sustainable work environment; it’s about profit margins and shareholder satisfaction.

    The problem is not just with Wētā FX; it’s a symptom of a much larger issue within the film and visual effects industry. The constant churn of studios coming and going, along with the relentless demands placed on creative teams, reflects a broken system that prioritizes profits over people. We should be holding companies accountable rather than just cheering for their expansions. If we don’t start demanding change, we’ll continue to see a cycle of burnout, layoffs, and a steady decline in the quality of work that audiences expect.

    And let's talk about the so-called "innovation" that Wētā FX touts. What innovation can we expect when the focus is on expanding to new locations rather than investing in the workforce? New studios don’t equate to new ideas or better working conditions. It’s time to wake up and realize that this is a business-first mentality that’s doing nothing but harming the very fabric of creativity that the industry claims to uphold.

    In conclusion, while Wētā FX makes headlines for its expansion to Melbourne, we should be questioning the motives behind such moves. This isn’t a time for celebration; it’s a time for scrutiny. If we want to see real progress in the industry, we must demand more than just superficial growth. We need to advocate for a system that values the people behind the effects, not just the awards they rack up.
