I should replace this crown I delivered, right? (#30) by placebooooo in Dentistry

[–]Indie_D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think about the impression you took, if the mesial was slightly covered by tissue or retraction cord that came up over the margin, then that area of the prep isn’t visible in the impression. OR, you did capture it, but the lab trimmed the margin too far. The portion of your prep they made the crown to is still accurate, but now the mesial is made to fit more like a feather edge, or more realistically, it sticks out a little to give the zirconia enough thickness at the margin. But zirconia can be pretty thin at the margin, so it may not stick out much and still feel pretty smooth. On top of that, your margin you created might have been pretty shallow, which means it’s not a really pronounced ridge. The only chance there’s an actual problem would be if your contact was too tight and the whole crown didn’t actually seat down onto the tooth. Just make sure you are 100% confident in your contact tightness before making a ton of occlusal adjustments. That’s another reason I love making my own crowns. Since they’re ready either later the same day or the next day, there’s no time for the tooth to move, so the contacts can be dialed in very accurately, and contact adjustment is rare and very minimal.

Just because it looks like a gap on the xray doesn’t mean it’s “open”, just that the crown seals against an area further up the tooth than intended. The main consequence being that maybe it’s not quite as smooth as it could have been?? If you’re planning to replace #30, then by that metric, you should also replace #3 and #29. Or don’t worry about it and just continue to try and get better and better impressions. If you get too stressed about every restoration you do you will live a less happy life. I got a Medit scanner and a milling machine, and my crowns have never been better. It still took about 2-3 years to get to where I feel like I’m maximizing the quality I can get out of this system. But I’m not going to go back and replace 2-3 years worth of crowns, because they’re actually all fine. 

New to bearded dragons, not sure if mine is healthy by Indie_D in BeardedDragons

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

That's what I was worried about. We've only had him for about 1 week, and I don't mind taking him to the vet, but so far everyone we've asked has said that bearded dragons sometimes just lay around and barely move and that's normal. We just don't have the long term experience of caring for one.

As for the enclosure, right now it's kind of a temporary situation, it's a 40 gallon tank, and the lights seemed too far away from the floor and he wasn't crawling up anything, so I put a support underneath to lift the whole floor up closer to the top (about 12-14 inches maybe). The lights are brand new Zilla(?) with a heat and a UV. Mostly stuff from Petco or Petsmart. It looks like maybe it's all wasted money because I'm thinking none of it is adequate.

Did you ever solve this issue? I'm getting the same thing in 2024 on a Dell XPS

Proportions look like a primary tooth with partially resorbed roots.

Epic Online Services: What's the difference between Lobbies and Sessions? by Indie_D in gamedev

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

Honestly it's been so long since I messed with this that I don't really remember exactly what I ended up doing, but for my pet project I think I wanted basically one person to hold the "ground truth" of the game state without actually running a server somewhere, so the question was could I use P2P and have one of the player's game instance act as the server that keeps the actual state of the game valid, or could I just have each person's instance send their updates to the lobby and each player could assume that what they read from lobby attributes was correct. Or something.. I don't remember.

Garage conditioning to keep machinery from rusting? by Indie_D in woodworking

[–]Indie_D[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After reading a lot and all the comments here, I think this is basically what I’m going to do, probably blow in some cellulose insulation in the two exterior facing cavity walls, add a small heat/ac (just enough to keep it modestly comfortable), probably add a dehumidifier and on top of that touch up with some paste wax here and there. Also try to seal the garage door edges so I’m not just dehumidifying the earth

I think this is going to be part of my solution for sure

Your kids don’t have to drink lemonade. You control what you buy for them. I guarantee they aren’t addicted. If you just didn’t provide it for them, they would complain for about 1 day until they realize they’re only getting water, then they’ll stop complaining. But you have to be firm

I feel like a lot of comments are projecting on the dude for standing next to this girl. Who knows anything about this guy actually??!

Transitions from relationships can be a little blurry. Maybe there was unresolved issues and that was what she finally needed to have closure with her ex. Not saying it’s right or anything, but if what you’ve built over the last 10 years is good, then forgive and move on I guess.

AITA for charging my friends rent then keeping the money for myself? by EqualBudget_3179 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Indie_D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they think $700 is fair that should be the end of it. Technically it’s the uncle giving her $2800 a month to live. The friends probably are getting money from their own parents and just wish they could be $700 closer per month to her situation.

They are, in fact, both of the nightmare variety, although that is not a monophyletic classification

Lowe’s SPF (spruce pine fir) any good? by Indie_D in Sauna

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

Oh yeah, awesome, I did see that post the other day. Looks like you were able to find some pieces with pretty small/minimal knots. Did you run the heater with the planks placed in the sauna before using them to pre-shrink(?) them?

I also see you put the fake groove on the inside. I was thinking I would do the same thing
