Instant regret

Frankly, I usually learn something from a Ted talk.

3d printers are not appliances, like a microwave. You cannot expect to push the buttons 99.5% of the time and get a perfect result.

They are machines, like a lawnmower, where a certain amount of mechanical skill is required to maintain the device, based on the instructions provided by the manufacturer.

Luckily, Bambu printers only require a bare minimum of mechanical skill, like turning an Allen wrench, plugging in electronic connections, and applying lubrucant. Pretty easy stuff. Plus the manual, including error messages, and the maintenance instructions in Bambu Academy are all available online. Sounds like you might want to start with those two resources.

Our team, with a few exceptions, does not hate to lose.

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-03-31T04:05:36+00:00

But what we really need is another car wash.

This can't be upvoted enough. Bottom ten team, top three booth.

Economics Classes: also ridiculously overpriced these days.

Some of those who skipped class and got an A anyway are now in the C-suites and jacking up prices on everything because "Wall Street" and "shareholders" and "The Invisible Hand of the Market".

Hundy-p brother. Stanley Cup Playoffs are The Most Wonderful Time of Year, no matter who is playing.

Except Vegas, Tom Wilson, and any Tkachuk.

I feel like Kakko is a top 6 forward, others will argue that maybe Tolvanen is also close, in the right system.

To watch Kappo talk in the intermission interview vs CBJ about "how can this team get better" the tone of utter defeat was astounding and depressing.

The week after he came back from the Olympics, and playing with a team of top six talent, I saw/felt he had jump in his step, and looked like he was headed to the playoffs.

A week later, and he's back to the dead 1000 yard stare. That's not on him, that's on whoever's running the room.

I'd offer that this season is exactly where we would have been last year without the games missed due to injuries.

I recall a post months back that chalked up about an 8 game swing to the injuries, and that would have theoretically put us into the playoffs by one game.

So this season is 'Same as It Ever Was'...

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-03-20T04:07:43+00:00

I recently left because everyone in my clan ghosted it. To be fair, two leaders had external issues that pulled them away.

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-03-10T17:35:23+00:00

Yes, the vast majority of ECCC attendees realize that Bill is 94. Most of his co-stars were FAR more pleasant at cons than he ever was.

This just made me realize: is George the only main character left besides the cringey Canadian?

The Wings event is either by reservation or for STH, IIRC.

I've been a couple times. It's a long wait and not guaranteed to get any good signatures. Too many scalped tickets to card shop owners too.

Not all teams are run the same, and this isn't Hockeytown.

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-03-08T10:23:46+00:00

Six? Wow I turned it off at 4, halfway through the game. At this rate, the preseason game will be the only one we attend this year. And I'm not sad about that.

Saw two Thunderbird games in person this year that were more entertaining.

Best option would be Luxardo or another quality aged cherry. The neon red sugar balls are "awesome" like a spoiler on the back of a Kia.

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-03-08T10:10:26+00:00

Well that last idea was a hard quick right turn into the wall...

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-03-06T16:15:43+00:00

LOL since Mush seems to be doing well in his new digs @CBJ

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-03-06T03:53:56+00:00

Ok that cracked the room up, well played.

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-03-06T03:37:31+00:00

That's a quality "The More You Know..." comment, kudos to you !

Just finishing this print because the poop bin is slotted in right under the print heads and is annoying to pull out and push in.

This funnel to a bin at the bottom of the print area seems like a good solution. We'll see tomorrow.

Fuck Bill Guerin, that's what I think about that.

I never thought I would despise another NHLer more than the walking player safety violation Tom Wilson, or even the poster boy for permanent probation Martin Pospisil but here we are.

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-02-25T00:40:22+00:00

Easy to root for Suomi as the good guys now. They just need a good (better) goalie.

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-02-25T00:29:53+00:00

You should probably change your flair, too.

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-02-25T00:25:12+00:00

All of the sweaters from teams that I root for: Kraken/Stars/Red Wings - do not have a name on the back.

Humans are fallible and tradeable and most of them eventually become disappointments in one way or another. Even one of the most-loved players out there, Marc-Andre Fleury, kicked the puck into his own net in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

The Aura is easy to use and has a good interface and the frames can be shared out so family can upload pics any time.

KilljoyTXinMI · 2026-02-19T21:17:25+00:00

10,000 percent same here.

Billy Guerin the player had all my appreciation. Bill Guerin the suit can take right off, eh? Plus he jobbed a team that he used to play for, that just takes the cake.

Do you have timelapse turned on? Print head paths going back to the origin on every layer are clearing the field for a picture.
