 I need a to buy a smol laser cutter. Desktop that has a nice 10-12 inch bed and doesn't require a massive amount of venting setup. Cutting mostly thick paper and up to 1/4" acrylic. Any hardware folks have good suggestions? 

I am aware the industry has shifted a lot in the past decade, so no interest in shelling out for a 20-30k Epilog, I was previously a heavy use of Epliogs but they didn't belong to me. This cricut thing is not working, too slow. 

#Asknostr 
 can this actually cut 1/4 acrylic? its laser engraving. 
 Explain, please?

 maybe i'll built this as a weekend shits and giggles project. lmk if you'd be up for testing. simple pwa you can stick on your phone for travel lite 
 What is the difference between cornychat and hivetalk? 🤔 
 #hivetalk is better for both audio and video. But, it has been around for only a month, the other audio spaces have been around a little longer so people are familiar with them. I created hivetalk as there were no video/screenshare spaces available on nostr before then. You can also set hivetalk to broadcast mode for larger audiences, there are also many other features you can explore 
 Dont forget all the precursor #lightning network stuff ive worked on for 3 yrs before. See more on github.com/bitkarrot 😅

 Today's one of those days,

I am grateful for the years of thankless work I did on #lightning, that nobody cared about,

because its now paying off in #spades on #Nostr

 The other problem is that people are easily starstruck and they can't see the outliers who are actually making the future trends. 

once they find out its "too late" . 

Early Bitcoiners spotted the trend before it happens, not "after the trend has peaked" 
 Vegas or Bust next year?  It would be cool just to get together, not necessarily for conferencing.

 Unpopular opinion: A MBA does not teach you how to run a business. 

nostr:note1mjrjqn20r0yxlqfwpnmtgzlxzdlje5wscmunx0r9q8xxtglasags0nlgp2 
 Running your own business teaches you far more than an MBA imo 😄. The MBA track tends to funnel people into big corporations with lots of resources but if you were to put many on the ground with nothing they would have a hard time ; ive seen it IRL

 Probably because i was focused on lightning dev . Nostr discovery isnt great still
