  • Yup I do good (to our family’s taste anyway) pizza in about 40 minutes from scratch to eating with just:

    • flour
    • water
    • yeast
    • sugar (I pre feed the least in hot water for 5 minutes)
    • salt
    • olive oil
    • homemade crust spices (salt, garlic powder, oregano, red pepper flakes, etc )
    • maranara or pizza sauce (might be harder to find a good one abroad, not sure)
    • cheeses (or not for my wife)
    • basil leaves in season (we grow enough in mid summer, but buy it occasionally otherwise)

    Finding the cheese and toppings might be harder, but it’s often just frozen broccoli, bell peppers, onions and roni.





  • I wonder if any of that includes what are essentially firmware tuning for their printers?

    I recently ran a set of prebuilt Prusa M4S for a printing demo, and they were really nicely tuned, between the pressure sensing head and the way it only probes the area of the print bed it’s going to use, all 10 printers worked pretty much out of the box. One roll of filament wasn’t sealed properly and clogged a few times, but I basically did around 800-900 hours of printing over the course of a week and had a couple clogs from that one roll.

    I wish I could have kept one, but my OG ended 3 is still hanging in there.









  • How is Krita? I’m on a Mac and my biggest problem with Gimp and Inkscape has always been lack of MacOS integration. Mostly with the UI but even shortcuts were wrong when I tried it. And the mouse/trackpad gestures were the dealbreaker.

    I use Pixelmator, which hopefully continues to be a well developed pay once app, even though Apple just bought them. That and Sketch get me all the design tools I need for 2D and web.
