Anyone know anything about CNC machines (bonus points for 3d printer knowledge too)...

I want to buy a metal-capable CNC as well as a 3D printer to supplement it. Mostly to do random projects. But could use advice on what to purchase.

I am also curious about the software side, ideally id like to get a CNC that is easy to work with from a software level and bonus points if i could somehow use the same software to design for both CNC and 3d printer since parts for any particular project are likely to come from both.

@copyme@mastodon.online interesting. So you didnt really mean int erms of calories or size, just the meal itself... What makes you perceive them as heavy? Sausage I can see that is heavy (which is why i went with some turkey), but eggs? They are mostly pure protein.

What country are you in, what would be a typical breakfast for you?

The dutch, whom im most familiar with, will often eat raw ground beef on toast. Now to me THAT is a heavy breakfast.

@mur2501

Probably my support for free speech and gun rights (which i perceive as a natural right). At least, any europeaner who knows me would probably put those two things at the top of the list.

@copyme@mastodon.online

@copyme@mastodon.online 2 eggs and a slice of cheese is too heavy for most europeans? We are talking only 250 calories, I'd say that is a fairly middling sized breakfast.

@pixelfed Hi there! As a #blind screen reader user, I would really appreciate it if you'd take the time to #captionyourimages as it would really help with #accessibility
And it's not just people like me who appreciate them either, it's users on low bandwidth or metered connections who don't want to load the full res picture, those with #autism who sometimes find the context helpful, the huge percentage of those with preexisting visual impairments [#VI] which includes many people over 55 ETC.
It doesn't have to be anything incredibly detailed or artfully written, but something is nearly always better than nothing. I believe that their is even an option to automatically #OCR images now which should give you a head start.

@copyme@mastodon.online Sort of. I was born in america and spend some time there each year. But I reject the culture and hate the people and use it mostly just as a place to conduct business. I spend the majority of my time living abroad.

If who you are is classified by where your home is and where you spend most of your time then I wouldnt be considered american. I guess it depends on how you look at it is all.

@Faket Thats debatable... obviously drinking water is great, and should be the bulk of your fluid intake. But it has no vitamins or proteins of any kind.

If your only source of food and hydration were water you'd die. If it were milk you'd live for quite some time (until you died of scurvy probably)

@Faket The context on those points are important though and not really true as is.

> Cow milk is not properly digested

This is only true if your lactose intolerant. If you arent then it is digested properly just fine.

> it can causes allergies

People can be allergic to anything. It certainly doesnt **cause** allergies, there is no evidence for that, but you can be allergic to it, just as you can be allergic to almost any food.

> it's bad for cholesterol

As stated earlier we are talking about skim milk, which is low in saturated fat, so no, it really isnt. If you were talking whole milk I might agree.

> it's not good for your bones

It is extremely well established that both vitamin D and calcium are good for bones, and milk has plenty of each. So this is clearly untrue.

> it's made for calves, not for humans

Perhaps millions of years ago this could be true, but thats not how evolution works. After countless ages of drinking milk both human and cow have evolved such that one could say it is made for humans just as much its made for calves.

hmmm what to have for breakfast... I feel like i need more pre-cooked meat in the house for exactly this reason. Without some protein eggs will be lacking and all i have is some frozen sausage.. ugh.

@Faket Assuming we are talking about skim milk here, it is low in fat, low in sugars, and is a decent source of vitamins. Its hard to frame it as unhealthy, in fact I'd say its probably one of the healthier drink choices. Sodas are just a pile of sugar, even vegetable and fruit juices can be way too high in sugar to be healthy.

Fat content, which is quite low in skim milk, is the only reason I could think of that someone might think it unhealthy, so really cant imagine why you'd think that.

@barefootstache Well two parts here.

With regards to lactose intolerant people I think its fair to say milk isnt healthy for them. Then again people can be allergic to whole wheat but I dont think that makes it valid to say that whole wheat is inherently unhealthy either.

As for being healthy on its own merit, assuming we are talking about skim milk here, it is low in fat, low in sugars, and is a decent source of vitamins. Its hard to frame it as unhealthy, in fact I'd say its probably one of the healthier drink choices. Sodas are just a pile of sugar, even vegetable and fruit juices can be way too high in sugar to be healthy.

@trinsec Seeing as they dont follow me and I didnt tag them I'm not sure thats accurate. By that logic mumbling to myself after the argument about what an idiot he is would also be having the last word :)

@iankenway
Absolutely. Though make take you longer than youd like to get there.

@se7en LOL dude is talking about himself in the third person now.

What website is that.

@icedquinn I keep one in a bottle on my bookshelf. I can sell it to you for 200$
