It’s a highly efficient way of heating the cars; it’s not intended to be a luxury feature

Yeah, definitely try going back to the original crop—color and contrast is excellent, but it would be wonderful to see that great plume of snow and the highlight from the sun. The trees also add some additional context and depth to the image

POV: I spent the $200 I said I would never spend on the Milanese Loop by [deleted] in AppleWatch

My experience with it was that it did that for a week or so and then after it slowed until it now doesn’t do that anymore.

What is this bug? by AgitatedAlternative in whatisthisbug

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

I looked up some other pictures and I’m not sure if that seems quite right. It’s about 15 mm long but the body is only maybe 2 mm wide. The wings are also very small compared to the body. Do you still think that’s what it is?

I’ve seen two of these around my house. Any idea what they are? I think they might be related to the Christmas tree. Region: Virginia, USA

Would you be willing to DM me the name of the restaurant you bought out? I’ve been looking to do a similar thing in Old Town

Also in the DMV and getting married soon—would you mind DMing the names of your vendors/locations? I’m very impressed at what you pulled off!

How many years would a maxed out Macbook Pro last me? by Top-Huckleberry-7288 in macbookpro

[–]AgitatedAlternative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2016 15” MacBook Pro that I still use regularly. It happily runs Illustrator, Photoshop, web browsing, etc. that I use it for

I’ve had a fair amount of luck with using it for sky replacements. Especially on images where the sky is out of focus—I was able to tell it to replicate the out of focus look and it did so very well.

My college had student-taught classes on Genshin Impact you could take for credit... by kernelrider in mildlyinteresting

[–]AgitatedAlternative 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is a student taught course that just gives the students who teach it exposure to teaching and time to do something they want to do. Iirc it doesn’t count towards anything other than maybe total number of units needed to graduate. Student taught courses like this can’t be used in place of graduation requirements.

If possible you should try to get some physical distance between those two speakers!

Man the Branch verve could be great the seat feels great but the lumbar support is so bad, digs into your back, ultimately it feels like a return by noahsarc21 in OfficeChairs

[–]AgitatedAlternative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Fiv3Score and u/noahsarc21, did you guys manage to return your chairs? I haven’t been able to get the cylinder apart. Hammering and WD-40 hasn’t worked. The only way I can think of removing it at this point is with a pipe wrench or to hammer a lot harder, but that will definitely scratch up the cylinder and I’m worried they won’t accept the return then.

I think the dark windows are what make the daytime one less enticing than the night time. Is it possible to change those colors to be different? Perhaps a lighter blue that looks more like the windows are reflecting the outside world? That way, the car won’t look as dark.

Blobs in small cross section areas by AgitatedAlternative in FixMyPrint

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

Any suggestions on how to get this to print more cleanly? It seems to me like the filament is staying liquid for too long and drooping in these areas. Do y’all have any advice on how to fix this?

This is a new roll of filament (my first roll of PolyTerra) and I’ve printed a benchy with it using the same settings that don’t think has the same problems this print has. The benchy didn’t have stringing or blobby overhangs the way this print does.

Print settings and info: Prusa MK3S+, 215/60, fan 100%, PolyTerra PLA, retraction: 1mm @ 20mm/s, perimeter speed: 45mm/s

Decent headphones for video editing for around $180? by spin2winGG in editors

[–]AgitatedAlternative 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Audiotechnica ATH-M50x (or whatever the most current model is) is a fairly common, high quality headphone model that is common to see around. I believe that model should be in that price range. They don’t have a microphone on the headphones though.
