  • Governments the world over I trying to push online surveillance programs as child protection initiatives.

    Even if it was being viewed as genuine attempts to protect children from harmful online content, it’s still shifts the burden onto the public.

    AI stands to pause a very serious threat to children… Both in allowing them to form very strange and nonsensical perceptions on the world. As well as robbing them of a chance to develop their own critical thinking. (Which I’m sure tech bros and really happy with)…

    Get these super massive corporations aren’t expected to do anything to protect children.













  • Which in fairness… Is exactly what I did at first.

    I even did the explored the diagrams.

    What I didn’t do… Was modify them after there was several changes in scope. Let’s hope I use this is a learning experience. The next time just say right back to the design stage.

    Just imagine I used the spreadsheet inside Freecad. I could have even defined clearances and tolerances. But we live in learn




  • Thanks.i guess being all over it means I noticed all the minor imperfections, and only have myself to blame.

    Issues. I didn’t take the time to choses the wood carefully, so some bits of trim had to be redone because after they were ripped, they twisted quite badly. Even taking time to square up the plywood carcass was challenging. (The full unit is 230 by 180cm) So on my own it was quite difficult. My dad helped me move the carcass, thanks dad!

    I think (with this being my first wardrobe) some of the finer points went over my head… For example. I forgot to take into account clearances for the doors so had to take 3mm of each side to stop them rubbing against each other. Would have been easier to do that in the first place!

    I also added 18mm to each side of the drawer fronts so that the would stop against the front of the carcass…But forgot that the top edge has to be shared with the bottom edge of the door. If I ever did this again, instead of two parts I’d separate the drawer boxes, so instead of two boxes, I’d have four. The two wardrobe cavities and the two drawer cavities. Would be less cumbersome to manhandle!
