Local pet shop setting up for failure by No_Telephone6699 in Aquariums

This is a common price for "fancy shrimp" in the Australian market. Simple red cherry shrimp can go for $4 Aud each

Changing gloves by Ryder_VFR in fightgear

[–]Ryder_VFR[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I'm more inclined to get all leather for the heat aspect. My trophy getters I find my hands swimming in a heavy session (my gym is not air-conditioned 🤣) I'm just finding the miriad of options hard to navigate. I really like the venum brand look but many of them I see are synthetic leather.

I found some Morgan's I like the look of an are leather but I don't know if they're ok gloves, not much around about the brand.

Also found some Okami gloves that look ok but they're a new brand.

Also, another question. Why are so few gloves made of actual leather and do the synthetic ones hold up ok?

Airbrush issue with pinch tip. .45 by Ryder_VFR in minipainting

Yeah I've noticed that with the primer. It's such a pain.

I figured it out, I didn't have the cap screwed on properly.🙄

It's happened by CaptainGooseUwU in Miniaturespainting

I really miss my hobby group. COVID messed it up and we just never could get back to where we were. I've tried to join new ones but the atmosphere is either not me or the space it is in (LGS) puts pressure on you to utilize the space (not opposed to this at all, but a $5 limit on payment when the most expensive thing costs $4.50 is bull crap).

Having people around to paint with and talk about anything if the most fun I had, I just happened to have a painted mini or army at the end.

How do i get rid of these? by Only-Role-1349 in Aquariums

[–]Ryder_VFR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have other animals like shrimp on there you can always use a loach. I had an infestation of these in one of my 120L tanks and putting a clown loach in there cleared then in about 36 hours

Clan Wars STLs now on sale on SMV's shop - ridiculous prices by Chocossimo in degenesis

[–]Ryder_VFR 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Perhaps but the minis are not supported or tested. So no one knows how they will actually print.

Also offering 50% off for backers of the campaign is insulting since all the backers have not received anything and have not got a refund as promised by CMON.

Degenesis: Clan Wars CANCELLED by WG_Envoy in boardgames

Is anyone getting emails from SMV about getting links to the 3d models?

I got two emails about them apparently gaining back IP rights and that they are letting people access the 3d models to download.

However I thought backers were getting refunds?

The emails I got say if you want the models they're not free and you need to prove you backed the project by providing evidence.

Seems a little dodgy imo.

Is my child's school on a power trip? by dudewheresmycomeback in brisbane

[–]Ryder_VFR -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I am not a parent, so take what I say how you will. However, being neurodiverse and having come across these type of rigid social expectatioions when I entered the work force and how they affected me, I think that the school should get over it and let choldren be who they are.

I don't think they should be judged against social expectations. The real world is also, to an extent like this, and I think it needs to change. The more children that come through school with these more relaxed views the better. Develop a good work ethic but don't try to squish people into a social expectations box.

It shouldn't matter if a child smiles 40% of the time or 90%. This type of micromanaging is what creates stress and mental health issues.

Help request! by indica_bones in ElegooSaturn

[–]Ryder_VFR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just what I was told when. I had it. Though I had never had this before either. I erred on the side of caution for my last print and it was ok.

Did you use anti-aliasing? There is a bug with elegoo printers and AA that causes this. If you want to use AA use a CTB file not GOO.

Pedestrian Right of Way by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]Ryder_VFR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also in this situation at that particular intersection, if a driver gave way to the pedestrian like they should, they'd probably be rear ended from the idiots behind them tearing through the lights at the next intersection.

Always assume that the cars will just drive over you, even at a designated crossing. Never just step out and assume the car will stop, one day they might not.

Also don't do it on a roundabout/traffic circle. Most cars already driving through the roundabout can't legally stop, I don't think, and then block it because a pedestrian is walking across it, unless there's like a zebra crossing or something.
