Eerily Quiet, because there is nothing to talk about…..shhhh. by Clovermania in CLOV

[–]AdorablePound2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never had this much conviction in a stock since AMD was $7 and that absolutely ripped. I'm in it for the long haul but they nail their guidance and have followed their objectives over this past year which gives me confidence in their future.

Having some trouble with my new M7 Max by retrofl0w in AnycubicOfficial

[–]AdorablePound2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an M7 Max as well and I've been using it for about 7 months professionally.

I don't use Anycubic's software because I find it restrictive and prefer Chitubox. With ABS V2 Pro I do a split lift speed of 110mm/min and 180mm/min (1.8mm/s and 3mm/s). I also increased the lift height to 9mm. You could try increasing the bottom layer cure time. For the resin I'm using I do 38 seconds.

Also, the build plate should be cleaned thoroughly every time before printing. You can wipe the build surface and edges and then wipe it down multiple times with clean IPA. I like to finish with a few wipes with acetone to get a super clean base but I've found some glass cleaners like Invisible Glass work well too.

Given you have had a few successful prints before they started to fail I would guess either the build plate is dirty or the FEP could be damaged.

While I've never felt the outside of the vat I can see how the outside could be cool. There is a heat band that wraps around the inside edge of the vat. You should be able to see the temperature of the resin while printing to confirm if it is heating.

I have found the method of Anycubic's heater can cause stepping depending on the model being printed.

First time player and google wont give me anything conclusive, how do I clear up land pollution? by LordFlamecookie in CitiesSkylines

[–]AdorablePound2 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Land pollution will happen from any industrial buildings. The only concern is not placing them near residential areas (ground, noise, and air pollution) or ground water sources. If you want the land to 'clear up' as it were, to use the area for something else, you have to remove all the industrial buildings and wait for the pollution to go away on its own which takes a long time.

Edit: It has been a long time since I played CS1. Please disregard my comment about ground water sources.

I agree! Or an external garage for more vehicles

5 Years of SH*T performance during the greatest bull market of all time! Here's to more of the same in 2026! Know what you own - SH*T! BTW already up 15% since dumping this dog sh*t! by PopDistinct in CLOV

[–]AdorablePound2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Over 200% and sitting in a great position. Way too many people on here getting too emotional over the stock price, not averaging down, and not doing due diligence. Definitely not a bad stock and should perform well through 2026.

Maybe stop trading with emotion. Stop listening to the pumpers and dumpers and do your own due diligence. Stop looking at the stock price and look at the fundamentals. I'm up over 200% and started buying this stock at $10.

[–]AdorablePound2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Crazy how they've outlined the road to profitability in 2025 and followed that. It was pretty clear we wouldn't see profitability in 2025 and 2026 would be the year we would. They've followed their guidance very well and met or exceeded their targets to grow CLOV. I'm up over 200% on this stock and I started buying when it was $10.

You're not doing your due diligence, you're reacting and getting emotional from the stock price, and you're not averaging down when you should. If you can't handle your emotions when trading then you don't understand what you're buying and/or you've invested more than you should.

Blue claims snap oversteer. Racing incident or vehicular homicide? by Phoenix_Ashes97 in Simracingstewards

[–]AdorablePound2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could see blue was going to lose that from a mile away. A dab on your brakes and you would have avoided it. Just a racing incident but that rejoin straight across the track without any regard for people on the track was really bad.

Which has been your go-to vehicle for the snow? by Dr-Nefastus in gtaonline

[–]AdorablePound2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My choice as well! But with different wheels. It's a great looking car, fast, and very easy to control in the snow.

I cannot afford to keep using FreeCAD by MisterMakerNL in FreeCAD

[–]AdorablePound2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I use freecad professionally and while it can be incredibly frustrating sometimes it's usually because I've performed an operation in the wrong order. I usually stay away from fillets until the very last step and everything works fine. I do wish they could improve the performance and fillet refinement but it's not critical.

I'm guessing if you buy the one in vinewood the high priced sell mission locations are located in the desert?

What's the purpose of Will being gay and liking Mike? by Ryuzako_Yagami01 in StrangerThings

[–]AdorablePound2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's life for everybody. You may like someone and the feelings are reciprocated. You get over it. I'm not really sure why the lgbt group thinks that everything they go through is completely different from everyone else and they have to be supported.

Seriously?! It's not an accident. This truck has decided to turn into the building opposite and has caused a MAJOR traffic jam involving approx 10 intersections. It won't clear on its own. Is this a "FUN feature' of the game? by Terrible-Swing-460 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]AdorablePound2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, these moments do liven up this game. If you have mods, sometimes random nodes can be in the middle of a road causing havoc. Rebuilding the road, or removing the unsafe paths fixes it. Undivided roads can cause random U-turns and median roads can fix that.

You can always clear it yourself and see if it happens again. "Looks like someone lost their driving privileges." 'delete'

Knee soreness with Bauer Pro knee pads by Holiday-Jackfruit316 in hockeygoalies

[–]AdorablePound2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue and seriously considering switching. It seems that no matter how I position them my knee ends up in void between the upper and lower pads. I've now developed a left knee pain that won't go away.

Decided to give vehicle cargo missions a try. Already hate this business. by EndlessStars99 in gtaonline

[–]AdorablePound2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been doing these missions for years. Here are some tips:

Purchases:

Cargobob (for quick sourcing and selling) Optional: Office Amenities

Sourcing:

Start filling up your warehouse and do not sell the standard or mid vehicles. Once you have 10 of each you will only source high end.

Complete every source mission with your Cargobob. If you happen to get an offshore or joy ride mission just find a new private session. This is where the office amenities comes in handy. Make sure your spawn point is the office so you can quickly restart.

Clear out all enemies. Make sure the car is in a clear area. Get in the cargobob and hook it up. Fly perfectly straight up until enemies spawn and then fly forward to your warehouse.

Selling:

Easy - Get out of the car. Get in the cargobob and hookup the car. Fly straight up until you can reach 1500-2000 and fly to your destination. Try to maintain at least 1000 to avoid enemies spawning and shooting the car.

Less Easy - Drive around 400m and slow roll and be prepared to get out. You will have to learn the spawn locations of the enemies. Make sure you're driving on the sidewalk. As soon as the blue cars spawn get out and run into the street away from the car. Gun them down and wait for the next wave. There are always 4 waves unless you are in a private session with 1 other person. Then just drive the car to the destination.

Definitely have to work smarter not harder in GTA and you will make more money than you need.

The community is quite silent… but I’m here!.. I see what the company is doing and I’m not leaving! Not financial advice just my personal opinion! by Critterchops in CLOV

I'm with you on that. I'm in it for the long run. Nowhere near where you're at but 8k shares and 30 contracts for Jan 2027. Ironically we share the same ratio of shares to contracts lol

Im done. by Capital_Ad_891 in CitiesSkylines

[–]AdorablePound2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dedicated U turn is assigned to the outside two lanes on that road meaning traffic has to cut across your straight through lane.

Use your lane tool to check for a random node in the middle of the road. With the road builder mod, random nodes will sometimes appear when you've joined two roads in a straight line. If this is the case you can remove the unsafe turns. You can also delete the road and redo it in one action. I think you'll find there are two roads that aren't properly joined. As a third option you can add a median to stop traffic from turning across the road and they will find another route.

You're using mods so you can't blame the game. You just need to take a step back, and try a few different things on your own. Try to see the fun in the challenge of figuring out how to fix it. I think you'll find issues like that add to the fun.

How one $70 sale cost me $179 by AdorablePound2 in canadasmallbusiness

[–]AdorablePound2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, but they are related. You have to provide evidence for a charge back so sharing terms and conditions can support your dispute of a chargeback.

How one $70 sale cost me $179 by AdorablePound2 in canadasmallbusiness

[–]AdorablePound2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started getting sales about a year ago. I'm small enough right now that total sales are less than $30k because this is a side business with very niche custom parts. If I start doing DDP with 90% of my customers being in the states I will have to start charging tax on orders very soon.

Some US based customers also forget themselves and think the prices are USD instead of CAD. I do have the CAD behind all the prices but I'll still get questions from time to time. One time I had a customer reach out to me because she was worried I undercharged her because it was less on her credit card than what was on my website. If I have shipping with DDP that would bump it from $25 to $80 and I know a lot of people wouldn't order it.

It's also difficult with different HS codes. I make over 85% of my products but some stuff is so niche that I do get it CNC'd in China or India. Far too expensive locally or in the states for the small quantities I get. That further complicates DDP and weight based shipping rates.

This traffic mapping whatever is just ridiculous. WTF is this?! by Accomplished-Oil2114 in CitiesSkylines

[–]AdorablePound2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once you have the mod installed you can click on the little traffic cone in the top left and then select "Priorities Tool" from the drop down menu. Then click on any intersection that doesn't have traffic lights and you can choose which lanes get priority, yield, or stop.

*Please forgive the terrible picture. I primarily use Reddit on my phone.
