I had a friend’s son come to me asking to learn to program so he could make video games. I started teaching him C#, and he thought it was too hard. He said he just wants to learn to make Roblox mods. It was very disappointing.

    At the size of maybe a chicken breast, yes, that would matter. But we’re talking about 250 pounds of flesh. That has so much heat capacity that any difference in heat absorption is going to have no effect at 1 KW. The body can absolutely disperse that much incoming heat easily. Especially when the body is alive and pumping blood.

    Microwaves also aren’t going to be able to penetrate all the way to deeper flesh. They can reach about two inches deep. So I’m afraid Jason Momoa is still going to cook from the outside in, no matter how big his muscles are. And the skinny person, with much less mass to spread that heat, is going to cook faster.

    I wrote a thumbnail generator server. You give it a file, and it gives you back a thumbnail. Supports images, videos, music, 3D models, PDFs, ebooks, documents, spreadsheets, presentations, text, fonts, HTML, and more.

    This is really only going to be useful to people writing their own apps. You wouldn’t use this as an end user.

    If it’s missing any file types that could conceivably have a thumbnail generated for them, let me know. Maybe I can add that type too. I want it to basically be able to thumbnail everything. I know that’s a lofty goal, but the closer I can get the better. :)

    AI Disclosure:

    One of the scripts in this project is AI generated. It is disclosed here. It is the script that configures Blender and renders thumbnails for 3D models with it.

     

    Don't download this thing. Don't run this thing. You have no idea what it does. No one does. Because no one wrote it. This is pure, unadulterated slop.

    Look in its commit log. It's all Claude. Almost every single commit. I doubt any human has ever touched this thing. Just slop that will never amount to anything and will be abandoned when Anthropic runs out of VC money.

     

    (I didn’t know where to post this on Lemmy. If it’s not appropriate here, please let me know, or just take it down.)

    There is a secret hidden trans theme in Port87 Mail. I’ve never disclosed it publicly, but for Trans Day of Visibiliy, I’m going to. You can activate it by going into your settings on desktop, opening the theme dropdown, then typing “traaaaaaaaaaaaaa” (I don’t remember how many As there are). There are other secret themes, that maybe I’ll disclose later. For now, enjoy pink, white, and blue email. The best color theme! 🙂
