Prunt Board 3: Enhanced 3D Printer Control for Quieter, Smoother Operation (Crowdfunding)
Prunt Board 3 is a 3D printer control board with six TMC2240 stepper drivers, two 15A heater outputs, four fan outputs, four thermistor inputs, and four endstop inputs that is designed to offer smoother and quieter operation. The hardware is said to offer better ESD protection than boards such as the Duet 3 Mini 5+ or BTT SKR 3 EZ and supports hardware-accelerated step generation, but the magic happens with the Prunt firmware and associated server, which enable a 31-phase velocity profile for smoother operation and higher-quality prints compared to boards running Klipper or Marlin firmware. Let’s have a look at the hardware first. Prunt Board 3 specifications: 6x TMC2240 stepper drivers, all capable of running at 3A with minimal airflow 2x 15A heater outputs with short circuit protection (1.3 µs response time) 4x tachometer inputs Fan outputs 4x fan outputs supporting 2, 3, and 4-pin fans, all up to […]

Google Photos Unveils New Functionality to Assist Users in Selecting Outfits
Google Photos this summer. Google and Motorola revealed the new wardrobe feature, suggesting that certain Motorola devices might receive it ahead of other Android smartphones, such as the latest Motorola Razr models. Wardrobe enables Google Photos to identify all the clothing and accessories featured in your images, allowing you to browse the options in your closet and mix-and-match pieces directly from your mobile device.
It’s improbable that Google Photos will encompass images of all your apparel, jewelry, and other accessories, but users of the wardrobe feature will probably begin taking more outfit photos so the AI can organize the items in Google Photos. When this new feature becomes accessible to users, they will be able to view clothing items by category, which will be useful for locating a specific garment. This feature will also allow users to combine different items into an outfit, save them to moodboards, and share them with friends. A Try It On option will also be integrated into Google Photos, helping users visualize the outfit before wearing it.
Some specifics remain uncertain
If the Try It On feature seems recognizable, it’s because Google has already implemented this AI-driven functionality in other areas. Google Shopping features a Try It On option that allows users to virtually try on clothing while shopping online. You simply need to upload a photo to virtually test the clothing. Try It

### Codex’s Latest Pet Feature: An Exciting Enhancement to the Superapp
The most recent update from OpenAI for Codex introduces an entertaining feature that lets users engage with Tamagotchi-like pets. This fun addition aims to enrich the user experience while working with Codex on Mac devices.
#### What Are Codex Pets?
The new `/pet` command gives users the ability to show or conceal various quirky creatures that act as lively companions during coding sessions. Although the specific selection of characters may appear odd—no goblins, for example—users can also invent their own distinctive pets. These animated friends operate similarly to the Dynamic Island feature, offering updates on Codex’s background tasks.
#### The Allure of Virtual Companions
The launch of Codex pets is more than just a gimmick; it serves as a strong incentive for users who relish virtual companions to dive into Codex. In the worst-case scenario? Users may discover themselves being more productive while relishing the cheerful interaction with their new pets.
#### A Personal Connection
As users interact with Codex, they might feel motivated to investigate related content, like browsing websites focusing on these virtual companions. For example, a user might come across the “Lil Finder Guy,” a character that brings a whimsical element to the Mac’s Finder interface, sharing delightful messages that celebrate the charm of small, animated helpers.
#### Conclusion
With the introduction of the pet feature, Codex is making a substantial move towards becoming a superapp, merging productivity with playful engagement. Users can explore Codex pets and even learn how to design their own by checking out the official documentation. This update not only improves the user experience but also fosters creativity and participation within the Codex community.
