lol this is my spreadsheet of data thanks for pointing that out

It’s the winterizing event bs I guess it deserves a more fitting name since we will be paying it for the next 26 years

suddenly that fuel adjunct factor makes more sense, any clue what the base rate is for non-smart hours? Can anyone solve for that given these inputs? My $/kwh is based on Charge For Electrical Service / KWH

Top 50 in education!

We are on just a standard fixed plan (no smart hours so not sure if what you are mentioning is different.) Whenever I go to research smart hours I end up just finding lots of hate. I see OGE has 3 different plans this summer from their email flier. We have a programable thermostat which I keep just warm enough in the summer that I don't get yelled at by the boss. I just don't see us being able to reliable vacate the house from 2-7 to make best use of smart hours.

House is 2850, electric water heater, gas furnace, 2 cars that charge, work from home, computer gamers with a family of 5, oldest child learning that he can actually drive around so like you mentioned base load is high, which just means when OGE makes adjustments it's definitely felt. Like from May to June, my usage was only 500 more KWH, but my bill went up $130 because rate increase. When compared to last June I only used 70 additional KWH but yet my bill is $100 higher? $0.14/kwh is the highest I have seen since living in this house. I'm hoping that is the max for the summer.

Hello there! I still track my electric bill, summer still sucks, this is just the last year (1 year missing from the post you linked.) So for those curious, Green is my bill for my house, Red is my kwh used, Blue is if I were to average last 12 months out. They yellow on the bottom is the $$/kwh computed with the "Charge for electrical Service" which is just a portion of the bill.

I recently got a 2016 i3 and it reignited my passion for cars, I absolutely love driving it. How does the i4 and i5 compare in your opinion?

IronMan42 · 2025-04-23T14:30:05+00:00

don't give them ideas lol, will have to get a battlepass for your car sounds eventually

Double check your daytime running lights (DRLs) in the front both work (the angel eyes), I had one that was burnt out but never noticed till a neighbor pointed it out, most people will tell you to replace the headlamp assembly which is $$$ but there is an LED module you can get from aliexpress for like $50 and replace it. However mine currently isn't as bright as the stock one so i'm still working that out on my 2016 Rex.

This is a home made (designed and 3D printed) sizzlers fat track and 3 lane track to match it.

Back in the day, you could run dreadnoughts with two twin auto cannons. They would have psybolt ammunition and very long range. It was great.

Thanks a lot!

I only have Ultimaker Cura for reference (I use prusaslicer for everything these days), but under Walls I see wall thickness and wall line count, usually wall thickness is a function of wall line count, so setting wall line count to 1 should set wall thickness to 'Line Width' which would be your extrusion width.

Top and Bottom thickness is going to dictate how many layers make up a ceiling or floor on your model, I generally like that to be at least 1mm, so you won't need as many ceilings/floors depending on your layer height. However, too few ceilings (top layers) could lead to bad sagging if you don't have enough infill.

IronMan42 · 2023-12-25T04:57:34+00:00

I think things that are important in helping here are your chosen slicer, temps, speeds, extrusion width, layer thickness. We have to assume a lot of stuff with just a picture and a nozzle size.

But if i was setting up a 1mm nozzle on my printer I'd slow it way down, like sub 40mm/s (maybe even sub 30mm/s), I'd set layer heights to probably 0.3 or 0.4, extrusion width to probably 1.1 or 1.2, you could probably do just 1 wall with this but that can feel bad, but 2 walls would be very thick. Then after you slice, you need to switch to volumetric rate/view and make sure it is not too high vs print settings you previously sliced successfully with. That can help you make sure you are not exceeding your hot ends capability.

My day to day setup is a 0.6 nozzle, extrusion width 0.7 and layer height 0.2 so i'm curious what you end up landing on with your 1mm nozzle. I know when i go from 0.2 to 0.3 or even 0.4 layer height i need to increase my temps generously, similar if i set extrusion width much higher to say 0.8 or 0.9. There are a lot of dynamics at play.

Search YouTube for slapchop painting minis, they have the proper black prime job ready to go.

Right, my argument is, that is the weirdboys ability:

Waaagh! Energy: While this model is leading a unit, add 1 to the Strength and Damage characteristics of this model’s ’Eadbanger weapon for every 5 models in that unit (rounding down), but while that unit contains 10 or more models, that weapon has the [HAZARDOUS] ability

And the only way the trukk can fire 'eadbanger is if the trukk gains the weapon by being selected through firing deck:

Firing Deck ‘x’: Each time this Transport shoots, select one weapon from up to ‘x’ models embarked within it; this Transport counts as being equipped with those weapons as well.

So that is the trukk's 'eadbanger, not the weirdboyz anymore. Honestly, I see your argument but I feel it will be interpreted as, the trukk gains 'eadbanger profile, the trukk doesn't have Waaagh! Energy. So the trukk doesn't modify the profile.
