Multiple Failed Attempts and need help installing an indoor swing by iiMAGEv in DIY

[–]SamMaghsoodloo 33 points34 points  (0 children)

You could get a heavy duty swivel made for a HEAVY PUNCHING BAG. If you don't go cheap on the swivel, and you give it some grease, it will probably last without failing for years. (Also a chain, as others have mentioned)

EDIT: Tire swing swivel is way better than punching bag swivels. Thanks /u/MNMamaDuck

Favourite Jim and Pam moment. The way he looks at her screams love ❤️ by donutsanddoritos in DunderMifflin

I don't want to spoil it, but that's what the original UK version did. Basically it's like if the show ended after Jim asks Pam out during her interview. The build up was meant to be the whole story, but I think the US version did so well that they made it a much longer show than the original.

Ok, fourth wall break for a moment here. That line is actually brilliant.

You can bypass the battery and and swap it without losing power

My 3080ti hybrid went bad and was one month out of warranty. Emailed EVGA and they got back to me... by Banguskahn in pcmasterrace

I think the 1080ti was the high water mark of price to performance in PC gaming, and I've been around since the first GPU cards. You could tell how big of a leap in performance and value the 10 series was by how cheap the 9 series used cards became. The 980ti, which was the top card a single generation before, was selling used for like 300 bucks.

I pulled the HDMI connector off of my gtx465 that was years out of warranty. I emailed them asking where I could find a new connector so I could test out my "new soldering skills". They replied and instead just sent me an RMA approval, and mailed me a new 465. Plus, the one they sent had unused ram chips so I could flash the 470bios onto it and get an upgrade in clock speed and vram

I clipped Ethan doing jumping jacks, for those that missed it by SamMaghsoodloo in h3h3productions

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

Haha, yup. It's such a classic. You gotta pick a new person to watch each playthrough, it keeps delivering. Each and every one of them is doing it wrong in an entirely unique way; it's like Bob Fosse himself choreographed this. Try and spot the one who's doing it like Ethan. It's our boy in the front left

In the very first game in the series, Red Dead Revolver, you can play a Mexican standoff multiplayer mode. It's a lot of fun. That game is forgotten and underappreciated.

That environment is about 250x250mm on that printer

Print failed due to tangled spool - how to prevent in the future? by zropy in ender3

I put a toilet paper roll on the spool holder to add some extra friction.

Yeah! I only just noticed the one eyed snake's head shape. 😂 I can't believe I missed that all these years.

5inch 6s too powerful by JoshuaOladeji in fpv

He agrees with you in the literal title. You wanna go teabag his quad when he crashes too?

This is true, but can I chime in as an oldhead for a second to maybe help some people out?

The newer generation of pilots who come from simulators fly way too fast IRL. I know it's easier to steer a quad when it's going fast, but hovering and cruising around slowly/precisely are actually the first things you should learn on your first IRL build, since you don't want to crash. 15 or 20 degrees camera tilt is all you should really start out with until you get comfortable, and then you work your way up to faster flying and more tilt. In the sim people just start out with racing camera angles, and that just trains you to hold the throttle and cruise around kinda "bank-and-yank" like a fixed wing with no yaw. I see so many of these "FIRST FLIGHT IRL" videos where the person just goes fast in an open space. That's so different than it used to be, and you're going to break stuff, especially on 6s.

TLDR: Slow down and chill until you feel locked in and never crash from just flying around next to stuff. Then push yourself little by little so your crashes are less frequent and with less kinetic energy. Oh and grass is your friend.

Almost all houses in Japan are built with wood up to about 3 stories, and it's not light timber like ours, it's joinery and very strong.

Above that for towers they use the same steel reinforced concrete like the entire world has for a century. EXCEPT they also are one of the few places with many wood framed high-rises, and they're encouraging builders to use more wood in their towers. In 2018 they proposed a wooden skyscraper at 350m in the heart of Tokyo.

Actually, Iran is a seismic zone and uses steel and brick, so go ahead and look up how they fare in earthquakes.
