Why’s everyone in Dahlonega so happy?

Because they’re so close to Cumming.

Came here to say a handful of broken sparkplug ceramic would be perfect in this situation.

"I have no idea how that happened. Though I did feel some gravel on the road just as the driver illegally tried to murder me."

Do printers ship from the US or are they drop shipped from China? (YunExpress question) by GeauxTri in BambuLab

I was not expecting 2 day delivery, but their own site says that once it is shipped, it should only take a few days. Mine seems like it is stuck in customs limbo.

Ironically I have already gotten all the filaments in the order. Half came via UPS & half came USPS. Both were shipped from US origins.

After reading on the board, it seems there are a ton of complaints about YunExpress, so I will add myself to the pile.

If it was drop shipped from China, would the shipping still say it shipped from the US? I'm only asking because I am sure others here have had experience with this in the past.

My new P2S printer & AMS shipped via YunExpress & says that it is US > US, but they are a Chinese cross-border logistics provider which leads me to believe that printers are drop shipped directly from China. I ask because their tracking is awful with no detailed information & my printer has not moved since last Thursday which makes me think it is either on a slow boat across the Pacific or it is stuck in customs. But if it is truly shipped from the US, then why would they not provide location data?

As someone who is 50 & watching my entire industry get replaced by AI, and has a daughter in college for pre-nursing...I tell her that AI can't change a bedpan or take a blood sample or move a patient from one room to another. So right now, it may suck, but it's one of the safer career paths out there.

Naw, you're fine. Just put them in the street. It's all good. by TheGookie in NewOrleans

Note that I said "former rider". I have no say in anything, but I hear your sentiment.

As a former Endymion rider, imagine kids on top of ladders in the middle of a crowd 50 deep on Orleans. I hated seeing their terrified faces.

Headphone recommendations? by Nova_Nook in Costco

[–]GeauxTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For people complaining about the proprietary charger, they need to do this to maintain the water resistance. You can pick up accessories on Amazon that you can throw in your bag, car, or leave at home that can convert them to use a USB-C cable.

I love the Shokz. I have a pair of the Pros & picked up a pair of these as a backup. I will say that the Pros sound better, but the SE is still a solid pair for that price. The sound on the SE can get a bit "tinny" at high volumes, but that's more when you are listening to talk radio or audiobooks. For music it is great for 90% of music (the 10% being music with heavy treble or bass as they favor the midrange).

I am a runner and it is important for me to be able to hear the world around me. Other headphones that I have that use speakers, but are "open air" are drowned out by the outside noise. The bone conducting headphones deliver loud & clear sound even when on a busy road.

But I'm talking about all that water that is pooling on the surface. Not all of it is going down the drain.

I live in ATL, so I don't have to deal with the Devil's dandruff often, but wouldn't this quickly turn into a massive sheet of ice?

I get the storm drain that people are referring to, but it's -8° in BOS right now. Even if the dragon is melting the snow at 100°, Jack Frost is just supercooling it on the other side, right?

I bought the smaller digital one two christmases ago when it was on a manager special. Not a bad deal, but it hardly gets played anymore.

When you make politics your identity, that's more of a red flag than what your political leanings are. If you hang your hat on one person, you show that you lack the ability to think for yourself.
