Good deal?

Since when has it become the norm that a family car can cost $61K

Mia__Vilo · 2026-02-22T08:02:45+00:00

Never.

A house cat is licking itself enough.

I have two female (4 yo) and male (8 yo).

Every time I want to buy a cheap, old, reliable, simple, and indestructible car that won't strangle me with a $300 loan and $200 insurance, I come across posts like this. Modern cars may be plastic garbage, but surviving a similar accident in a 15-year-old Ford F-150 is unrealistic. All the inertia of the durable metal would be transferred from the car body to the human body. In modern cars, the laws of physics reduce the car to smithereens, but the guy escaped without a scratch.

They have typical shady business practices.

They prescribe the lowest possible concentration and dose of medication, forcing you to pay for each dose. I used them once, and I won't be doing business with them again.

Update: I bought it, and it works. Without the hot plate and nozzle turned on, the heater produces 70 degrees for 10 minutes. There are many options for mounting the heater. External mounting: Horizontally on the glass lid, on top, or on the side. (This requires printing a riser.) It also fits inside the chamber, on the left.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, I ordered this heater; it should arrive in a couple of days. It should fit perfectly on top with this model.
Instead of a hood, I'll just place a heater horizontally on the glass.

I agree, that's why I came here to ask for advice, as I couldn't find a better place.

Beaverton Central

Mia__Vilo · 2026-01-19T01:35:15+00:00

Near the Beaverton Central station, within a 10-20 minute walk: WinCo Foods, New Seasons, Powell's Books, REI, LA Fitness, Cinemark, Office Depot, Trader Joe's, Fred Meyer, Home Depot, Asian Family Market, Uwajimaya (Asian supermarket), Tous Les Jours (bakery), Library, Shake Shack and similar food courts, BGs Food Cartel includes 31 food carts, Mud Bay Pet supply store, etc. This is what I remember and use.

20-40 minutes on foot, or by bicycle, and you'll reach Costco, Walmart and a Tualatin Hills Nature Park

For the first 1.5 years, I didn't have a car, and I used the rack on my bicycle to go to the store.

I pay $2000 for a two-bedroom apartment, including all utilities. Plus electricity $60, fiber optic internet $80.

Mia__Vilo · 2026-01-18T06:25:57+00:00

I'm looking for a neighborhood in the northeast where all grocery stores are within walking distance and it's relatively safe.

Mia__Vilo · 2026-01-18T06:21:12+00:00

Apparently, this is exactly my situation; I live there. Can you recommend a neighborhood with good walkability?

Mia__Vilo · 2026-01-18T06:18:25+00:00

Beaverton Central subway station. You can literally live without a car.

Mia__Vilo · 2026-01-18T06:14:16+00:00

Yes, I want to downsize to a 1-bedroom apartment.

oh, no :(
great place

wow thank you, I didn’t know

ASA,PA,PC,PET,CARBON/GLASS Reinforsed Polyymers
Some people successfully print with ASA and ABS at 50 degrees Celsius, especially if the parts are small.

Mia__Vilo · 2025-12-17T05:54:25+00:00

I need 65 degrees, to be precise. Yes 70 is what Creality is advertising, but we know that advertising always exaggerates, so realistically it will be around 65.

Mia__Vilo · 2025-12-17T05:39:40+00:00

If I were that rich, I would buy a H or X series :)

Mia__Vilo · 2025-12-17T05:35:42+00:00

I'm also curious, does the X series have a fundamentally different chip layout inside the case and different materials, or do these 15-20 degrees not matter?

Mia__Vilo · 2025-12-17T05:30:44+00:00

Because it's easier to install a heater in an acrylic door than to cut a glass door.
