I remember when Tesla announced the Model 3 as a sub-$30k car. Since then there have been other EVs hitting that mark, but I still harbor some skepticism whenever prices get announced that far in advance of release. But it’s good to see more EVs entering the market!
Fake edit: I looked it up, and Tesla is offering the Model 3 starting at $40k. That’s more than 30, but tbh it’s not as pricey as I thought it was.
Porcupine Tree is my jam. Saw them perform this in Denver last year, total blast, would recommend. They’ve released so many great albums, and Closure/Continuation definitely keeps up the trend.
Isn’t that the whole point of the op-ed, though? They’re saying that Lemmy and Mastodon aren’t comparable to Reddit and Twitter and aren’t going to replace them, because the friction is too high and the differentiators don’t matter for the majority of people. The differentiators matter to us and we’re totally happy to be on a smaller network, but I think the op-ed is a fair reality check for the subset of people who came here thinking this would replace the big platforms.
Cardboard aided design is a vastly underrated engineering tool :)
It’s oak (I can’t remember if it’s white or red, it’s been so long since I bought it). I did manage to avoid splotches, but different pieces came out with vastly different shades because I didn’t stain it all at once, and my technique and the stain both changed over time.
Thanks! I designed it to be versatile. The play surface should work well for other tabletop games, and if I throw a removable felt liner in there it would do great for card/dice games. Someone also suggested that I could add removable joystick modules to each of the player stations and do tabletop Pac-Man and other arcade-type games.
It’s also built to work as a regular dining table: https://imgur.com/OkASfSW
Thanks! For now I’m just using static images, but at some point I’d like to try software that handles line of sight/fog of war, and maybe animations. I’d love to hear suggestions.
Well that’s eerie as hell
