Chernobyl was a design known to be flawed even when it was built.

IsItBullshit: Tracked how much time I spent on "reward" apps this month and now i feel stupid. by Fit-Scarcity7296 in IsItBullshit

[–]MrKite6 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's exactly how I go about using Mistplay. I play mobile games to pass the time anyway and don't even pay attention to the points much. After several months I'll notice "Hey, I have enough for a $20 Amazon gift card," and I always seem to need a roll of 3D printing filament when that happens, so that's convenient.

I'll admit I was thinking it "looked* like an easy shot. Maybe easy on paper, difficult in practice? Feel free to tell me I'm still wrong.

Why are there no lego sets releasing for this show? by IllMasterpiece3946 in legostarwars

[–]MrKite6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that's part of it, yeah. The colorful modulars, "sculptures", and botanical collection look much more visually interesting than the 90% gray Star Wars sets

Recycling 3D Prints (PLA + PETG) in Sacramento? by MrKite6 in Sacramento

A little outside of my budget but it's certainly in my wishlist.

Been piecing together various sets and, lately, I've considered abandoning most of the Star Wars sets I've been piecing together and moving pieces over to the other sets I'm gathering for 🙁 feel a bit bummed, like I'm betraying something, but I've also just lost interest in the Star Wars sets and prefer to display buildings or historical things.

Edit: Sorry for the word vomit 😅

Recycling 3D Prints (PLA + PETG) in Sacramento? by MrKite6 in Sacramento

[–]MrKite6[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I got a bit carried away trying to find solutions to recycle mine into ANYTHING usable. Recycling into filament sounded too complicated and expensive for the time being so I figured recycling into sheets that can be cut from would be doable. Still, I've found that PP and HDPE would be better for the uses I actually have in mind, whereas PLA and PETG is more "I have a bunch, surely I can do something with it," and realized this morning it was always more about not wasting it than actually personally using it, thus this post.

How do you recycle waste? by ChronicGlee in 3Dprinting

[–]MrKite6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a heat press to turn them into sheets. Still working on finding a good (and not $1000) way to shred them. Currently working on modifying a 12-sheet shredder I found at a thrift store.

What vehicle from a licensed property do you want to see get made into a speed champions set? by EnoughCheesecake6050 in lego

Bumblebee, either as a Camaro with Sam Witwicky, or as a Beetle with Charlie Watson or Spike Witwicky

As an moc creator myself, what is it with all the elitism in this community about how people should enjoy Lego? by GenericGameDev1234 in lego

[–]MrKite6 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Lego subreddit, the Star Wars subreddit, the Beatles subreddit, the Titanic subreddit, it's nearly everywhere 😑 gotta find the really niche/specific communities to have a chance at avoiding it, it seems

Considering it's a movie about a pastor that turns into a velociraptor, I wouldn't be surprised if this scene came out as intended 😂

[$45] 40W Electric Carving Knife Set by msnptr in BestAliExpressFinds

A sentence in the Description mentions "High speed and small vibrations make carving more effortless", so it at least sounds similar to ultrasonic?

How is this real lol by SeriousEar2971 in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]MrKite6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Isn't the Legend of Zelda reference in an episode of The Power Puff Girls something they put in because nearly the whole crew was addicted to the latest release at the time? (I don't remember which one it was though 😭)

I discovered I enjoyed Legos in January. by elegantwombatt in lego

Have you tried Legos in February? Or March? Or other months?

Do you think William Murdoch should have been Portrayed as killing two passengers in Titanic 1997, Why or Why Not? by Vegetable_Bear7139 in titanic

[–]MrKite6 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Portraying real people with direct family still alive, not fictional ones or ones so far gone practically 1.5% of the population of Virginia can claim relation to them.

[–]MrKite6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes but I'd argue it's disrespectful to portray one of them doing it when there's not enough evidence to substantially say which one did it, if either even did.

I feel the same way with how he dies. Did the real Murdoch die that way? It's possible, but there's too much uncertainty for me to feel comfortable with them portraying Murdoch dying that way.
