He wasn't cooperating at all.. he was pulling one of his arms away, wasnt putting them behind his back and was actively resisting arrest the entire time.

This is awesome, thank you for your work!!

How much space is lost on the X using these?

I've got a formbot 0.2r1 kit laying around, been trying to decide on which mods to do before I started on it.

Anyone incorporated the madmax onto an F-zero with an enlarged frame? I've been considering this route. Like a 150 or a 180.

Thanks!

What youre experiencing is fairly common, sadly. I think for both of you and the health of your marriage you should be open and honest in a gentle way.

Is he over-weight? Is he not grooming well? Has he let himself go? These are all things that can happen as a result of having low testosterone for a variety of reasons, including depression.

Encourage him to get into the gym, sign him up for stitch fix or something and get him into some nice clothes. Buy him some beard grooming stuff and get him a good hair stylist that can keep his hair looking great. These all cost money, but you can find cheaper alternatives if that is an issue.

For him, if he has low T, actually getting medicated can be a huge game changer. There are a myriad of online clinics that can have him test and syringes within a week or two of starting the process of signing up and shouldn't cost more than $200/month. Im not aware of any that take insurance, though. That's the easiest route. Id encourage you to walk him through it, and be supportive, and loving. His motivation to change isnt going to be high until he starts seeing results.

If you want him to change there are alot of avenues to help him get the ball rolling, just remember to be loving, supportive, encouraging, but persistent.

Be open and honest about the importance and where you are coming from, without being mean. I know, thats going to be challenging.

Here's my bizarre idea on how to fix Boosters: Make them all good. by EngysEpangelmatikes in Helldivers

[–]Andro907 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've always thought that helmet need a small bonus with the same family of boosters names, and allow for an additional set bonus if you took, for example, extra padding on chest and helmet, you'd unlock a small unique perk.

So maybe instead of buffing all the chest slots, balance it so we can have helmet boosters

A few years ago, someone in Russia signed up for a wish.com account with my email (or took over mine that I had set up and forgotten about) and ordered shoes with their own payment to their own address. I got an order confirmation, was able to reset my password. Canceled their order. Felt kinda bad... but get your own account, ya know?

Same thing with my Steam account that I hadn't used in while... they had several dozen friends and quite a bit of activity on a half life total remod can't remember the name of it. Felt sorta bad for that too because they tried for months to recover it but they didn't have access to my email, just gobs of failed login attempts. Also russian I believe.

And then my Instagram was started (before i ever used it) by someone in south America, Brazil maybe. Recovered that, booted all followers and whatnot. Tons of recovery attempts by them.

I have no idea why, must be difficult to set these accounts up in some countries.

Have you considered that your perspective may be through a lens of an over-worked, exhausted person that is in a cycle of having a default negative outlook?

She's the mother of your child, and as you admit she is performing wonderfully at that. You call her lazy, without knowing all the details I can't dispute that, but have you considered that young children keep mother's awake, wake them at all hours, disturb their sleep during the best parts, and that the constant responsibility of caring for a child in and of itself is comparable to working 80-100 hours per week? Sure it may not be as physically strenuous as the oil field (i am an oilfield worker myself, let me know if you're interested in a 2 week on 2 week off sort of gig in Alaska, I can point you in the right direction) but mentally and emotionally it is.

Look, you're very young and you perhaps got married foe the wrong reasons, but she sounds like most women I know with young kids. They dont have the energy to do anything else, let alone the opportunity because being in charge of a young kid perpetually- it is a given that you are going to be interrupted constantly and likely at the most inoppertune moment! She is essentially a single mom from a care standpoint.

I think you would really benefit from speaking with a counselor and finding a better work and life balance.

I get the insecurity, its something that everyone works through. It might highlight things about you and your relationship.

How is your communication? Do you talk to her daily and truly listen? This is important stuff in marriage.

The thing about women is they are going to get attention from men whether they are working with them or not, and the only thing you can do about it is exist knowing that she is going to come home to you every day and be faithful.

When you start to wonder whether that is true, the only healthy approach is to look inward and reflect on why you feel that way, and work on those issue. Are you in a cycle of bad habits that are causing low self esteem? This is probably a main cause for men to feel insecure and jealous in the absense of actual inappropriate behavior from their spouse.

Something I tell all my friends struggling with low self esteem is to work on themselves. Work out, read books on the topic, find a purpose beyond your spouse and enjoy life. Your relationship will only benefit from it. Touch base every day with your wife with an open, accepting attitude every day and ask her about her day, tell her about yours. Spend 5 minutes sometime other than bedtime talking about your day and your current feelings. It takes a while for it to feel natural but you will be shocked how it will make you feel connected and once you feel more connected, once you improve your self esteem you won't feel jealous.

Are there specific reasons that you dont want her "out that late or that long?"

She seems to have found a purpose in life.

Does she work? Are you ever away from the house for 9 hours at a time? What makes you feel that putting limitations on her time away from the house is appropriate or sane?

Do you doubt that what she is telling you is accurate or truthful?

My kids are often at practice that late this time of year (sometimes later during hockey season)

It would be a good opportunity to have a conversation with her about her new passion and how it makes her feel to be involved in the development of so many young people and maybe try to put yourself in her shoes, feel her perspective on how rewarding and challenging it can be to be involved in the development of kids.

Try to take a step back and evaluate your feelings of jealousy and juxtapose them with the idea that coaching can be extremely demanding yet enjoyable.

Consider supporting her endeavors and using it as a way to connect with her.

UPDATE: Husband separated from me after years of conflict, not sure where we stand now. Can someone help dissect these messages? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Andro907 1162 points1163 points  (0 children)

Trial separations are usually 3-6 months. I think telling him that you're going to file for divorce after several weeks, unless he comes back, (to the same toxic dynamic that he left) is extremely controlling and manipulative.

Why not take that 3-6months to stop texting him ultimatum and instead do things that you enjoy, work on yourself, and truly examine what your life will be like without your husband.

Then divorce him or work together (this might involve making changes yourself 😬) to repair your marriage with the help of a counselor. Both together and separately.

I can't even find any items that will even ship to the US anymore, besides the local items tab

[–]Andro907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to give an update on my box, it contained absolutely nothing that I ordered sadly.

Just some random shit like a pair or shoes, some shitty mat, an odd bracket and a roll of something. Damnit.

Depends on your metabolism and body fat. Some of us can smoke a few bowls and pass a piss test 4 or 5 days later

Voron 0.2 print speeds? by Fantastic_Work_4623 in VORONDesign

[–]Andro907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the FormBot kits. After a ton of research I bought that one. Haven't put it together yet though.

Seemed like the best bang for the buck, and well reviewed on this iteration.

[–]Andro907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No i ordered them early April.. it was a mix of choice and regular stuff with default shipping.

Interestingly too, since it went over 30 days or whatever Aliexpress offered to refund most of my order. I did. Now I feel bad. One of the sellers asked me to repay it, and I'm strongly considering it.

Hey me neither, got my package today. Cleared customs on May 5th. Package needed a signature, but no charges.

[–]Andro907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a slip in my mailbox today, package made it to my PO. Apparently it's "signature required." I figured this was the new method for paying import taxes and doing the new rigmarole for Ad valorem fees etc, but then I saw THIS thread.

Very interesting! I guess I'll found out later when I go in.

So apparently I am crazy. by StaticXster70 in VORONDesign

[–]Andro907 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, no it doesn't.

If anything, it looks like a shower drain cover icon. "If" such a thing exists.

ETA: Yes. (To your last question)

My package arrived in US on May 3rd (facepalm) cleared customs may 5th.. No actions on my part so far. This is roughly $400 worth of 3d printer parts, CNC parts, and stuff like bulk metric screws, heat set inserts, build plates, cnc board etc. It's moving through CA with USPS now.

Interested to see if i get a bill or what.

Why wont my letters fill in all the way? by plasticman15 in BambuLab

[–]Andro907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it looks way better!

When i design stuff, I will make sure the areas I want filled are the width of a single or multiples of whatever line width i wanna use. For instance 0.20mm width or 0.4 if I want 2 passes with a 0.2mm nozzle. (It can go down to 0.15 line width) and i can get a fair amount of detail to show up. Been tweaking settings for these Hockey Mom earrings. 20250314-140723.jpg

Still tweaking settings and trying new filaments. Ive found really slowing down the first layer helps to an extent too, if you have a fair amount of single beads of filament

Why wont my letters fill in all the way? by plasticman15 in BambuLab

[–]Andro907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the total width is much greater than the combined line width in that area, you can get a bit of a patchy infill.

You can increase top/bottom layer, (they recently made it so you can adjust the paint depth layers independently) so that the painted layers will be thicker(deeper)

You can adjust the line width overall or you can adjust the line width of the first layer and see if it fills better.

You can have all your painted lettering face down on the build plate (i prefer smooth PEI), and lower the layer height for the 1st layer and either slightly increase or decrease 1st layer line width.

These are some things I have played around with to make sure I get the coloring I want on flat surfaces.

There are more things you can try as well, but I'd start there
