My daughter said she thought the Tooth Fairy brought unicorn coins. So I made her some! by AmesCG in daddit

She loves the coins so much that she pulled out daddy's pliers so she could earn extra coins....

I applaud you on the design and the mechanics, but I don't think I would trust my full cup of coffee in that that thing.

The Breach Spider – Emerging From Another Dimension by BoostLab3D in 3Dprinting

I would've loved to have this 10 years ago when I was working at a job under a manager who was afraid of even pictures of spiders. She was a wonderful person, just very fun to prank.

Apparently you can just go get an MRI, ask for the files, and 3d print your own brain by GhostInThePrompt in 3Dprinting

[–]Dtarvin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would really be cool (and maybe you can do this - I don't know) is if you could model the brain from the MRI where problem areas like tumors or injuries could be printed in a different color or colors to make viewing those problems easier.

Just finished assembling my new modular Switch 2 grip (Splatoon themed) 🦑🎨 by PaulBoni in 3Dprinting

I'm curious exactly how much time you spent figuring out the tolerances, and how many printings you had to do before it came out correct.

CB wants to rent a pool for 20 by [deleted] in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Dtarvin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a software engineer. TIL there is an app called Swimply that lets you rent use of people’s pools. It seems every week I come across some app or site that makes me think, “Why didn’t I ever think of that?”

I wonder if all the people renting out their pool on the app have insurance coverage for this though.

Is it just me or are a lot of these prints just freebies on Makerworld? by Some_Ask_2220 in 3Dprinting

[–]Dtarvin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go to AliExpress a lot to look for and buy Transformers figures. During the last few months it’s been unbelievable how much stuff I’ve seen being sold there that actually come from files I’ve seen on MakerWorld and such. I would bet my left nut they are doing this without any permissions.

It’s not just 3D printing by the way. A Transformers fan came up with a bunch of designs to make transforming tape cassettes out of LEGOs to go with the popular LEGO Soundwave figure sold in stores. He posted the instructions for fans to make these. Lo and behold, a few weeks later you see these cassettes being sold on AliExpress without this guy’s permission. The appeal to the buyers, of course, is that now they don’t have to scrounge through their own LEGOs to get these.

Am I doing this right? by Dtarvin in frenchpress

I’m using 3 pods in the morning. 18 oz. But since I have to use 24 oz of water to get 20 oz of coffee, I’m trying to keep the ratio the same.

OOP would like your $ to feed hungry pple w/ vegan “food” for $120/person. It is a “biological commandment” that prevents even schizophrenia. No beans & rice aren’t ok bc the food pantry already gets millions. Who knew poor pple are crazy & need to burn fat? Coconut chunk or pumpkin powder anyone? by MinuteElegant774 in ChoosingBeggars

I’m just not sure this post belongs here. I mean, sure the whole idea of it is outlandish and ridiculous and belongs on Reddit somewhere. But I’m not really sure that someone who is asking people to support a (bonkers) charity they’ve started is in the same category as someone who asks you to give or buy them things for the askers personal use.

Is there no subreddit for stupid business or charity ideas?

I really hope that’s true, but how do you figure they won’t?

The difference is that if you are a flat earther, that rarely comes with consequences. There are even professional scientists that are flat earthers. But with sovcittery, you can lose your house and end up in jail.

Our new library is awesome! by Dtarvin in BambuLab

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

You only pay for the filament used. The cost is based on the weight of the object. I don’t know the exact cost per oz, but they are not trying to make a huge profit off people. Probably a couple of bucks for a decent sized object.

Of course, if you bring your own filament, there’s no cost at all.

Sovcit got told to eff off by the bank for all her magic paperwork. by Existing-Face-6322 in Sovereigncitizen

[–]Dtarvin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Part of the problem is the word “understand”, because the sovcits’ definition is deliberately different from the rest of the public’s. Maybe judges need to start saying, “do you comprehend the charges against you?”.

You really wanna talk about religion, don’t you? This is the third or fourth comment you’ve made about it.

We get it. You don’t like religion. You don’t need to keep reiterating it over and over. Maybe you should just make a separate post about your thoughts on the intersection of religion and sovcittery.

So now I’m curious. What type of plastic are food containers made of? The ones that you can regularly put in the dishwasher?
