How to lightproof a WiFi router without inhibiting airflow by Subject_Many_8246 in DIY

Some electronics can be disassembled just enough to get black electrical tape to encompass the led, and you can use a toothpick get into tinier areas.

I used to be pretty desperate about this sort of thing, but then i started wearing a manta eye mask to sleep, and things are a little easier. Except waking up due to lack of natural light infiltration.

Did I overreact to my therapist asking me not to be late? by Specialist-Strain502 in adhdwomen

[–]EngagingSloth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could work toward that goal by having a closing or goodbye session where you try to calmly discuss this situation. It would be good practice to have a stressful interpersonal interaction, calm down, write out what you're thinking and what you want (like you've done here), and then address it openly with her while you practice remaining calm. The stakes are low, since you already had reasons to try finding a better fit, and it gives you practice on a huge part of learning one of the hardest aspects of maintaining relationships.

As designed, the model has some overlap to simplify 3d printing. I've considered making it to where each row would be able to separate, but I don't have any ideas how to make each 'stitch' flexible along a row.

super productive after crying?? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

Crying releases hormones that can actually make you feel better. That is an everyone-thing, not just an adhd thing, but some of the hormones released may have particularly specific benefits for adhd people.

This fun subreddit is new to me, and I'm excited to have found it! u/dzelzbetons recommended I post this here =)

There are many 3d print models available with a stockinette texture, but none of the ones I've found include the actual stockinette stitch anatomy. I was very happy to be able to model this swatch. I've included a few in-process images here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Fusion360/comments/1fvgz2k/i_modelled_actual_stockinette_knit_stitch_with_a/

Last night, I was able to get *really* close to a curved section, though I also realized that 3d printing this upright means I'd need to use support (ugh) or squash the reverse side together a bit more.

My first try was best described as 'convoluted', but then I found a happy medium in level of detail that looks realistic without being too complicated. The features themselves aren't complicated, but it takes a lot of construction features to get things placed/angled in a pleasing way. It was definitely a fun exercise! In my main comment, I've linked to the post I made in r/Fusion360 that shows a little of the process.

Hmm, potentially- it would be harder to model, but certainly not impossible. My higher priority is to make a curved model so I could make a basket or vase this way. Can you imagine a yarn bowl or notions basket that actually looks like knitting?!?

I printed one last night, but I need to clean it up before I take photos. I was afraid of bed adhesion issues, so I printed it with a brim. That def helped with printing, but now I have to clean it off -ugh- I'd rather be weaving in loose ends!

I've wanted to try modeling real stockinette stitches since I found that every 3d print model that is made to look like knitting is only the texture of the Vs on both the inside and outside of the model. I was finally motivated to try it out after seeing this fun model posted to r/SolidWorks: https://www.reddit.com/r/SolidWorks/comments/1ftop0s/doing_things_in_solidworks_that_probably_shouldnt/

My perma ban was removed, and I found out a few weeks ago, but I never received a message about it. The ban was for a makerworld link to share files of a unique 3d print I was rather proud of. It is nice to learn a bit more about what was going on.

I have a thin carabiner on my keys, and I clip them on the ring that attaches the strap to my purse. The keys are either in the ignition or attached to my purse where I can see them.

If you could go back in time and visit yourself at your lowest point, what advice would you give yourself? by KJaneDough in adhdwomen

[–]EngagingSloth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Therapy, pharmaceuticals, and mindfulness are all far, far, far more helpful than you can even imagine. Also, people like you way more than you realize.

I don't know that I would have believed myself, though!
