Ça semble super raciste.

I use metal plates that I cut with a jeweler’s saw, and polish them with a rotary tool with polishing bits

I think that on the contrary, accessibility matters quite a lot here, and python is definitely more approachable and versatile here than a lot of other languages.

It’s interesting how such a simple thing as coffee can make and suggest a landscape in such a way.b

Because it’s not a dialogue, it’s a random word generator.

Why are you using AI if you have no idea what it is and what it does? Do you use a hammer to cook your pasta and then wonder why it’s not working?

I don’t think it deserves that much praise, it’s not as hard to make as it looks.

I actually want to encourage people who could have access to the tools and materials, to try if they are interested, even if they lack confidence that they’d be good at it. I was in a completely different subject (computer science) and now this is becoming my main activity, and undoubtedly there’s a lot of people here that would be much more talented than me.

In the end, what I’m clumsily trying to say is: to anyone that wonders if they should try it, and who has the opportunity, go for it

Pretty sure it is the main reason. The ones that want to feed themselves through hunting could be planting crops instead. Or you know, use the money they sink in guns and ammo to buy food.

Wow can’t believe that so many dumdums already upvoted this shit comment.

Thank you for the kind words!

Every “hole” in the design is done by piercing a small hole with tiny drill bits (generally, I use ones that are 0.7mm), then passing one end of the blade through the hole before attaching it to the saw. The blade is then “trapped” in the hole and you can cut out the shape from the “inside” (I’m not sure how much sense my description makes, I’m not very good at explaining things)

So the lines in the wings and the hole of the tail are all made with this same process. This is actually the part that takes the longest, cutting the various shapes is relatively fast, but each hole inside the design requires detaching the blade, passing it through, reattaching it to the saw, and adjusting the tension (which is very important, and funnily enough is done in good part by listening to the pitch of the noise the blade makes when flicked). One of the most tedious crafts I’ve made was this one, simply because of the amount of holes (the pattern is not mine, I just printed it and used it like that):

I don’t know how long exactly, it’s been years since I started but it’s just been a hobby so I have been pretty irregular in how much I do it. It’s definitely less complicated than it looks (the technique I’m using of cutting a metal plate, not jewelry making in general), the biggest requirement is a bit of accuracy and focus, and the tools (which I was lucky to have access to, when I wanted to start).

Je pense que pas mal de gens sont juste en colère, sans vraiment savoir où ou comment la diriger. Et il y a l’idée de fond que si ça emmerde, alors ça sera remarqué.

Si tu défonce le terrain de golf des connards de riche du coin, personne d’autre ne s’en aperçevra, tous les riches vont se mettre à avoir du personnel de sécurité ou autre, et t’auras l’impression de pas avoir d’impact. Si tu défonces un magasin, ça sera à la TV et tu vois les gens paniquer et se demander pourquoi, et ça donne l’impression d’avoir un impact.

Je pense que le problème c’est que s’attaquer aux biens ça marche pas super, parce que les riches ont assez pour tout remplacer de toute façon. Bref, c’est compliqué, et les connards de riches ont l’avantage d’être riche, ce qui les aide pas mal.

Merci !

I have a rotary tool with polishing bits, and the ones I use are sort of abrasive plastic spirals that graze the edges and smooth them out (the edges are not perfectly smooth because I like to keep some of the “roughness” of the saw cuts).

I use a file when I want to make adjustments, for example to smooth out a curve or a straight line that is not as accurate as I like

Ça pourrait se faire, je vais penser à quelques thèmes pour faire une sélection initiale

Je suis pas super doué avec Mastodon, et j’ai un peu l’impression que si t’as pas déjà une base qui te suit, tes messages passent complètement inaperçus…

C’est quoi le masto apero ?

If individuals are respected, then their minority opinions will be fine as long as they are not breaking the rule of not blocking other’s freedoms.

Billionaires are in many way hostile to society as a whole, and destroy the freedom of most people, by choice. Nothing forces them to do it, they aren’t born that way or whatever else, and they are breaking the rule of respecting other’s freedom; as such hating on billionaires is not hate speech, because they broke the rule first and are doing it willingly and with complete choice over the matter.

But you’re right, there shouldn’t be hate speech against billionaires, because they shouldn’t be allowed to exist.

A jeweler’s saw, with blades that are extremely thin. Here’s a picture, even though it doesn’t show the scale very much

J’ai jamais regardé de ce côté, précédemment je comptais sur Etsy pour ma visibilité, mais je peux plus trop me permettre d’attendre que ça se fasse tout seul donc je vais regarder ça, c’est une piste intéressante

Je suis toujours ouvert aux suggestions ou demandes personnalisées, dans la limite de ce que je sais faire, donc si tu as une idée en tête ça peut se faire.

Et vu que je suis en pleine phase de développement de nouveaux designs, toute idée est bonne à prendre :D
