Total nostalgia trip this week! This is my take on a classic of close-up magic, the dice change illusion. This is my entry for the Makerworld 3D Printed Magic Trick design contest. 🎩 makerworld.com/en/models/1367… youtu.be/Zu0fvTeEKxQ

If you happen to be on Makerworld, this is my design of a Bagnold Solar Compass, and it's my entry into the current Hiking Gadget design contest. I also built an app to go with it to work out the azimuth tables for anywhere and any time on Earth. 🤓 makerworld.com/en/models/13...

Mmmm… cat donut. 🍩

Saw this done a few months ago and was completely wowed, was a significant factor in investing in a new 3D printer! This is a CMYK lithophane, printed with 4 filaments.. which then does this when lit from behind. 🤩 @bambulabglobal.bsky.social

Quite likely the most insanely complex model I’ve ever 3D printed. The ‘revolver’ fidget gears by Graham Watson (@GmanProjects on YT) One piece print in place, came out perfectly on the #Bambulab P1S 🤩 @bambulabglobal.bsky.social youtube.com/shorts/dJTt74x…

Two blankets. Two washing up bowls A whole lot of Christmas genius! 🎄🤩

Amazing work. The authors identify 10 categories (image below) and then leverage LLMs to map the actual withdraw reason to these categories #metaresearch

Genuinely love this abstract. Best research contribution ever.👌 Everyone else: We proved that Tetris with larger k-onimo pieces is NP-complete! Unnamed researcher: I thought my Tetris font was really cool.

Ok. That was mildly satisfying 🤓

Saw this puzzle on YT. So I stopped watching the video… And I made one. Nooo idea what to do next. I’ll get right back to you 👍 😁

Love the new decos 🎄

Yea gods. 6pm. Already been dark for an hour. Welcome to December in the UK. 😭☔️

A story that begins with a corpse on the floor is a mystery. A story that ends with a corpse on the floor is a tragedy. A story that begins with a floor on a corpse is The Wizard of Oz.

At its heart, Star Trek is a utopian fantasy about a society so advanced that they are capable of holding productive meetings that last no longer than three minutes

Joined here several months ago and it was all quiet until last week when several folks followed me. ❤️ This place looks like the other place used to look like before the enshitification took hold. Long may it last. 👌

@recantha.bsky.social It appears this just fully opened to public sign ups… greetings. 😁
