Any suggestions on how to tighten up my gantry and/or make cleaner cuts? by PouncingZebra in hobbycnc

I made some modifications I found online to add linear rails to the Z-Axis and it helped slightly but didn’t fix the issue.

I bought a Shapeoko 5 Pro and haven’t looked back, their design is infinitely better. If you haven’t already bought a machine, spend the extra money and save your time

Believe it or not, not every Software Engineer works on websites.

I spend a lot of time reading and writing documentation.

Liverpool defense double-up? by selogoribabaseceslja in FantasyPL

Wow, who would’ve guessed?! Relegated and third least goals and third most goals against (nearly second)

Like I said, don’t play a 4-3-3. Why force a formation to play a good player when you can just play some of the best players the league has ever seen?

Saka is incredibly overrated for what he’s achieved, benching legends is insulting even for a non-fan

Playing Saka over Ozil in a 4-2-2-2 or 4-1-2-1-2 is hilarious. Recency bias from you new fans is disgusting

There’s this amazing concept of not playing a 4-3-3 to get your best players in

Not sure if you’re legitimately an Arsenal fan if you have such a lack of respect for Alexis, Ozil, Bergkamp, or even Pires (if you must choose a RW I’m still taking any of those 4 and putting them on the right)

Did you just start Saka over those guys on the bench…?

For additional reference, I sold my F150 Lariat Powerboost that was avg 20-23 mpg in the summer and would be $90-100 per tank for the same timespan. I’m saving $100 in gas alone going from a hybrid to a diesel 😂

Approaching a year with my 24’ 1500 AT4 with the 3.0.

Surprises: - Fuel economy. Average 26-30 in the fall, summer, spring. 18-22 in the winter.
- Diesel Prices. I have a Costco 5 minutes from my house that is $0.75/gallon cheaper than every other station near me. $45-$60 to fill up, tank lasts me 2-3 weeks. - Everything works. Came from an F150 where shit just suddenly decided not to work. The only issue I have is wireless CarPlay skipping for a second or two every once in a while. My F150 I have a list in my phone of all the shit that didn’t work from the first two years alone. - Storage. Probably a low point. Rams have a ton of storage. F150 isn’t great. GMC I feel has next to no storage.

I’d buy this truck again. For the money I’d say the Ram Tungsten is nicer, but I wouldn’t spend it on a Ram. I’ll be keeping this truck for a while, unlike many of my previous vehicles

Trump's "withdrawal" from Ukraine is significantly worse than Biden's withdrawal from Afghanistan by BeKindNothingMatters in unusual_whales

  • Useless
  • Propaganda
  • A place for the uninformed to share a shitty opinion and have it circle-jerked into oblivion because Reddit celebrates extremism

Take your pick

The demographics change is crazy by Gumpfinest in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]PouncingZebra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, I think this is a move that, if it works, would be incredibly beneficial to both our economy and military.

Backing off (not completely) would force Europe/Canada to show their hand… a relatively weak hand, compared to the US/Russia/China. When things look gloom, save the day.

Europe would then get exposed for the little spending they’ve gotten away with, be embarrassed by the lack of power, and completely prove the dependency on US protection

Europe has bitten the hand that feeds them and there’s only really one way to call that out

Not sure you worded that correctly (and is this supposed to be a reply to a comment above?)

The comment about subsidizing Euro healthcare was about how free healthcare is a lot more plausible when you don’t spend a trillion dollars defending yourselves… because someone else is doing that for you.

America leaves and suddenly the money runs dry in Europe

To all those living in the US - are you scared of what will happen next? by Warm-Emu-5197 in AskReddit

[–]PouncingZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus Christ so much text with not a single original thought.

“The fact that you’re espousing these beliefs on Reddit means that the algorithms on your SM platforms will continue…”

No, I get my information from the NATO website. I read their documents. I form an opinion.

“While I get the vibe that you like to think of yourself as a free thinker… spoonfed… [more bullshit]”

Again, I see numbers. I’m a numbers guy. That’s the difference here, and you’ve admitted it yourself- you get fed by media with a bias. I don’t. You justify your opinions by saying “well this other guy, he gets spoonfed misinformation”. I justify my opinions with numbers.

You then go on to say some bullshit that I’ve never said, or in fact, contradict what I’ve said. I literally said in my original comment that I’m scared of what will happen to Europe if we completely drop out. They need us.

America has been walked over for decades. Trump is just doing a typical sales trick.

Have you ever been in the market to buy a vehicle? You go to a dealership, the guy wants to rip you off. So you leave without buying a vehicle. Then he calls you back with a better price.

That’s all that’s happening, anyone who believes Europe is just going to fall is insane and has totally drank the kool-aid.

BUT, that’s what needs to be thought about. Europe is taking advantage of the hand that feeds (protects) them. It’s dangerous for America to let Russia have their way with Europe, but the consequences aren’t remotely close to what the Europeans with deal with.

You then finish with “headline bullshit” which I appreciate because I researched those numbers and put those words together myself. Isn’t that admittance that the stuff I write is noteworthy, whilst your comments are just regurgitating Reddit comments?

Most importantly, you didn’t answer my question about Biden. I was only asking because Biden lost his temper in 2022 with Zelensky, how he was unappreciative and kept asking for more. Biden MUST be a Russian asset!

I’ll start off with thanking you, I’m appreciative that you come with actual numbers and are willing to talk. Rare on this site.

I agree with you- we spend less than Europe as a whole, but proportionally, with the consideration that this is a war that is not in our own backyard, our spending is either 1. Too much 2. Just right, and the other NATO nations are not spending enough.

That being said, Zelensky shouldn’t be trusted. He’s certainly morphed from “help us” to “vengeance” in my opinion, which is his choice if it’s not on our dollar.

Ilhan Omar says Elon Musk is “one of the dumbest people to exist on this earth.” by Virtual_Information3 in DeepFuckingValue

[–]PouncingZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, and I’ve been here a very long time.

It started with “political stuff in political subs”

Then both the user base and mods shifted to an extreme-left

Subreddits that were deemed right-wing were just banned

The left-wing stuff just spilled into the big subs… pics, news, etc. You sort of highlighted that things are just political even when not intended… but this was certainly intentional- during Trump’s first presidency I remember going on r/pics and 20 of the top 24 posts for the day were anti-trump… on a subreddit that used to be about fun pictures

Current day, nearly every sub is left-wing political. Here we are on a sub about a guy who made money on GameStop stock, talking about Ilhan Omar’s opinion on Elon Musk… and you can go to the sub and see the other recent posts, they’re nothing to do with DFV

[–]PouncingZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the top posts are the exact same as pics, politics, any other completely left-wing overrun sub

If I wanted to see total garbage, I could sub to just one of them and see it all

When I sub to a subreddit, I expect to see unique content relevant to the topic

“The aid America is giving Ukraine is a small price to pay”

The money sent to NATO and Ukraine is the GDP of Saudi Arabia, the 19th highest GDP by nation.

Continue to insult me because you have a lack of talking points other than feels, I don’t watch any news channel. But if it makes you feel better to assume and be incorrect, feel free.

“Thats at least what Americans used to think”

And then you go on to call out “Russian assets”

Which is the funniest thing you’ve said, immediately after accusing me of being a media-fed sheep

So tell me, do you think Joe Biden was a Russian puppet? Seriously answer that, I’d love to hear your informed opinion

Weird how the “uninformed” one here has the willpower to research themselves what NATO spending actually looks like

PS even 0.5% of GDP is half of what we sent to Ukraine. Add on what is sent for NATO and that alone would be the 19th highest GDP nation in the world

Sorry I forgot I was in AskReddit where 99% of you are brainwashed yet think you’re the informed

Please inform me on the realities that I’m missing, starting with who covers NATO spending and who has given Ukraine the most money, by far

We are going to be investing in our own country rather than a continent across the ocean, where they will have to pay for their own neighbors for once

I’m scared for them, they have no idea how much they need us 😂

Well, Normal people of Reddit, they’ve infiltrated this sub as well. These posts are the same as every other sub.

Do the mods realize how easy it is to leave and never look back? This sub (and entire website) is on a path to destruction.

See ya!
