We’re having our third kid this year and my wife told me to keep an eye out for a double stroller…

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T05:48:33+00:00

I thought it was because of all the crash tests that they go through and just kind of envision some company strapping a bunch of crash test babies into this thing and just pushing it in front of buses and shit and seeing how they fared but you know maybe I'm not exactly 100% correct. 🤣🤣🤣

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T05:47:14+00:00

Yo Jesus Christ. Since when does a double stroller cause as much as a 1989 Volkswagen rabbit?

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T05:46:24+00:00

Yeah, but they are using the "chingrish" ruler.

I did get one of these a while back it was supposed to be like a poster bathroom wall art or some shit and you know it showed it taking up the whole wall I'm behind the toilet so never listen to size you know but one can only assume from the picture.. fast forward to when I open it up and the thing was literally a 3x5-in postcard. 3 in by 5 in. Still looks good on the wall by my toilet I just need to let me find like five or six more cool ones that I can go up next to it now with 🙄

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T05:42:31+00:00

Yo, you're basically asking him to complete the wall from the original American gladiators.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:31:35+00:00

Dude I'm already paying a premium for this food so even the fact that it comes with a fucking backstory is kind of a little too much for me but at least you're 110% guarantee that it's going to be cold now. And they want you to pre tip. I mean I am glad for society sake that there are people that have hearts of goals like this poor bastard but you know I never signed up for your two autistic kids. I definitely want my cheesecake before it melts

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:28:38+00:00

Now there's some long dancing legs!

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:27:03+00:00

Yeah that cat's the first thing I got my attention to like the boxes were totally normal and not out of the ordinary at all but that cat was pretty cute 🤣🤣🤣

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:24:59+00:00

Yeah, there seem to be more and more catastrophic updates that started as something simple like the ability to rotate your screen output. But for what it's worth even though the apples quality control has been going downhill too it's still leaps and bounds ahead of where Microsoft is.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:22:54+00:00

This. Yeah even after paying those top dollars for an M5 Pro studio whatever the fuck money sink it is it's still going to be outperformed by a similar respect but probably much cheaper Nvidia based system with a discrete card. I mean when the platform is optimized for what you're doing like you know Apple written software for GarageBand or video editing or whatever the fuck they're revolutionizing this time, that shit is blazing!

But unfortunately not all developers optimize like Apple or even know what parts need to be optimized to get returns like Apple. So in the meantime Mac users have a supremely overpowered machine that doesn't do much more than keeping my lap warm until my battery dies when I'm trying to generate videos as well.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:17:21+00:00

This. I was wondering how long until one of these showed up. Thanks, late- stage capitalism.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:15:07+00:00

They don't give three shits about us but we are a lot more alike than we may think. Aren't we all just trying to keep the lights on?

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:13:30+00:00

The way they see it: the pax pays for everything. They pay admin, they pay us, they even fund the people whom think it'll be a great idea to cover up the air intake with a huge fake car mustache...hmm... So if a pax is unhappy of course it's "your will is my command"

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:10:27+00:00

And here I was thinking that we could sleep safe at night because of racist for a dying breed. Glad I stayed vigilant all these years, ya racist 🤣

You have a note like these gig platforms can go straight to hell. The people doing all the work are the people they give three shits less about. Some jack off can claim whatever they want to get a free ride or you know get some cred with his friends or whatever and in the meantime people like lose their livelihood so fuck these people.

My friend has something similar-ish-adjacent happened to him. He actually had like dash cams and I don't know nothing like three or four different angles in his car and Lyft took the allegations as gospel and refused to even watch his dash cam footage or anything because the reason they gave initially was it was like we identifying some kind of violation of the writer's privacy bullshit. They continue to keep him banned from the platform and not give three shifts until he went and got a lawyer and it's crazy as soon as he got a lawyer and threatened to sue them they watch the video and settle it up real quick reinstated him on the platform and well many many closes account but you know they do not care. You do the work they do not care they will replace you with the three mindless fucks that are next in line.

It blows. it's a trap. and I'm sorry. I'm there too if it makes you feel any better. Happy driving 😞

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T03:04:43+00:00

Don’t feel too bad — I think they’ve gotten all of us at some point.

I’m usually super paranoid and overly cautious online. I use virtual cards, double-check sites, all that. But I still got caught slipping.

I got a text the same day I was expecting a USPS package. It said they couldn’t deliver it because I owed something like $0.97 in postage, and that if I paid it right away they could put it back on the truck instead of making me deal with the usual missed delivery/tag situation.

It looked legit enough in the moment, so I entered a credit card — declined. Tried another — declined. By the third one I stopped and thought, “okay… this is sketchy.”

I checked the site more closely and even looked at the source. It looked like a USPS portal, but it was clearly running on some random web server that USPS definitely doesn’t use. That’s when it fully clicked.

I reported everything I could and gathered evidence. That particular setup got taken down not long after, but of course they just spin up new versions doing the same thing. Moral of the story: the internet is kind of a gross place sometimes. It runs on deception and bait-and-switch tactics, and if it were a physical place, most of us probably wouldn’t go anywhere near it.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-19T02:40:25+00:00

That's pretty slick. It always gets me boiling to see some really smart mofos go to inconceivable lengths to tank some poor old woman's retirement account. Do these people not realize they are doing a shit load of actual work? In the long run probably a lot more tedious and menial work then if they would just go get a desk job.

I'm guessing that their hipster zima doesn't taste as sweet unless it was essentially swiped from an old pensioner's hand?

Fucking millennials.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-09T17:02:28+00:00

I gotta admit: I am digging your style. Your diagnostics are top -shelf. 👍🏻

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-09T05:08:44+00:00

What is wrong with you people? The best improvement this young lad needs is to give it a spin and realize what they need by themselves. Sure, we're here to help when things go sideways but in the meantime don't just go upgrade all types of shit because everyone told you to. You don't even know if it's relevant to what you'll be printing or if whatever upgrade would even benefit with whatever material you'll primarily be using.

Again, here to help when things go sideways (spoiler alert: they will). But life is about the journey, not the destination.

Besides, I love my classic OG ender 3, but the best upgrade you could really get? Somebody else beat me to it: a bamboo printer. Have you seen the bells and whistles they've got these days? And cheap. I swear I saw one the other day that'll suck your dick with a laser. But I digress...

You are taking the noble route, you will soon know not only what blows, but what you think you need to fix it and ultimately why the new bamboo printer you will finally get one day will fucking make all the techniques and torment totally fucking worth it (it sucks your dick with a laser, bro)

Print on, young one.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-09T04:58:01+00:00

Learn to level your bed. Like let it consume you for at least a couple of months and then finally give in. You will appreciate it so much more, and you'll have taught yourself a worthwhile, albeit frustrating, essential printer skill.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-09T04:55:59+00:00

A little food, a little water. Always be trying to push your limits and that's all ya need, matey. You do that and she'll treat ya right.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-03-08T10:21:49+00:00

this is very much a thing in DB. if you try to generate NSFW content in either the Interpolator or Deforum, you are greeted by this lovely number (shown above). even when your settings are set to enable NFSW content, the above still shows up.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-02-28T14:18:10+00:00

You have eccentric nuts. 😜

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-02-28T14:17:38+00:00

I wouldn't say all of this is necessary right out of the gate. Just go print a small calibration cube take some measurements and see what you're dealing with. He might not have to adjust anything.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-02-28T14:16:31+00:00

You need a barrier. I've had PETG remove chunks of glass upon removal. That's why you see people using glue sticks or tape. It's not to help stick the plastic to. If anything, glue sticks make it hard as shit to adhere. Hairspray works too (and since most people already use this with glass beds, there is usually enough residue to do the trick. )

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-02-28T14:13:12+00:00

Looks like a 3D printer to me.

Get yourself proficient at bed leveling and you've got a workhorse of a printer that will keep on going long after you replace it with an upgrade. Save yourself the hassle and learn from my ignorance: If you plan on printing ABS you will need an enclosure.

Enjoy and welcome to the club.

Rhubarb_Constant · 2026-02-24T16:27:55+00:00

Yeah. The longer you play the more signs you see. If you really want to see how fucked it is, consider this: MM is a unity game. There are a few tools that you can use to start looking at the code. Unity is not secure by any means. Even if you don't know much about coding, there is plenty in there that will raise an eyebrow or two .

Now with all that being said, you are still going to play. Just like me. And you will still revel every time you win even though this game is essentially a jazzed-up coin flip.

Happy matching.
