I totally get what you mean. For example, my wife got a 3d printer for me this past Christmas and OMG that was something that sent me to the rabbit hole like nothing before! So many things to learn about 3d printing and so many things to design and create.

ahah I am not asking for permission. I want to see if there is someone else who went through the same thing.

Today there were several threads on different social media platforms related to the number of patents filed by Bambu Lab, covering many aspects of 3d printing already existing and the subject of open source work

I am replying to my own post to share something that gives me some excitement. Nothing compared to the major revolutions I mentioned in my post, but definitely something that shows some potential.

AR - I was blown away by the AR comic book reader developed by VeVe for their NFT comic books. I still think that NFTs are lame (at least their current format), but being able to see through your iPhone an old comic book sitting right there on your table and flipping its pages was something magical. Never before I wanted so badly to have AR glasses with me and just being able to read a comic book collection in this way, without the need of my iPhone.

Robots - I was initially excited about the Amazon Echo, but I ended up using it only to set a timer when I cook. The new Amazon Astro is exciting. Way too expensive right now and I am just scared it might be a huge disappointment, but the idea of having a robot in my house that follows me, helps me, etc. sounds like super fun and very exciting.

This intrigues me. What would be the best device to explore VR now? Oculus Quest 2? Any new model coming out soon?

I wonder if this could be the same with hot yoga. I had a session yesterday for the first time, and I sweat like never before.

I don't understand why some people think they have a right to be distributed for free within the App Store. This store is something Apple created and I think it's fair that they decide who can join and how. If you are a developer and you don't like this, then develop your app for Android.

This is something similar to Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo asking for $$ from developers if they want to sell their games for these platforms.

The email provider approach is confusing. Superhuman costs way less and works with Gmail. No need to change email provider.

This was my same thought. We should understand the size of the problem and whether technology can help. If tech can’t help moderating, maybe tech can help in other ways. For example, establishing an anonymous unique internet ID that allows you to be online: if you get three strikes, your ID is suspended and you can’t spend time online for the duration of the suspension. Of course the system should be built so that you can’t bypass the one person-one ID and so that it’s completely anonymous. Also, the ID should not be transferable.
