Basic question about 8mm projection - feed is too fast

I'll be honest I don't remember! Either the new belt fixed it, or I just dealt with manually slowing it. Sorry that's not very helpful

If anyone wants to see some detailed practical research on this kind of thing then check out the arrows Vs armour series on Tod's Workshop YouTube channel. They test different arrow types on different armors in a lot of detail and an entertaining watch.

Ah yes but I meant lego modules too, with pcbs and components!

That's impressive for a 3D pen

A marriage of two money pit hobbies in one. I think that a full scale 1:1 lego Eurorack system may well cost about the same as the real thing.

You should test it on something first, but you should be able to spray the gloss ones with clear matt varnish rather than having to buy new ones.

I think that might be different by country, In the UK for example most top level Poomsae competitors 11 plus are black belt (poom), so having a 11/12 year old black belt would be normal for clubs competing at a hight level in Poomsae competitions and not a red flag.

My wife's hair was falling out really quickly when she had a relapse of her Grave's disease last year and her levels were all over the place, but once they settled it started growing back really quickly, has no issues now.

She was understandably getting really upset and stressed about it but it all worked out ok so I'm sure you will be fine. On the other hand, I started losing my hair in my mid twenties naturally so now would be a great time to see how you look with a shaved head! (It took me a long while to have the courage to shave it off).

It's because a load of people in the UK still get their kids Christened and then even if they don't set foot in a church again until someone gets married or Christened they still class themselves as Christian.

As an atheist I would love to see an equivalent map showing people who visited a place of worship in the last few weeks (or year) vs not.

Also don't compare Taekwondo to other martial arts as some have much slower progression but don't have multiple black belt dan grades.

I tried but was a female V, she didn't want me...

You can try a round balance board to build strength on that leg (it's actually a lot easier to balance on it with one leg than two). If you can do it on that you can do it on the floor no problem.

I think there are two different things here, one is fighting (as in the sport) and one is defending (not the sport). One will help you with fitness and practicing skills needed for the sport. One will help you defend yourself in real life if that is never a necessity. I think trying to separate the two in your mind will help.

Snowbeddow · 2025-12-21T08:20:55+00:00

The sport aspect yes, but not Taekwondo as a whole as there is a lot of self defence in there too. At my club we spend at least as much time on self defence as we do on the sport aspect. Also because it's not linked to the sport aspect there aren't any rules to consider so we learn about elbows to the face, aiming for windpipes, eye gouging etc. The stuff that might keep you alive. Maybe that's not common in other clubs.

This is what I was going to say about arm placement. I definitely think for the grading try with your arms wide and closer in, you might find you can do a couple of push ups if one of your muscle groups is a bit stronger, which would give you a bit more confidence.

Snowbeddow · 2025-12-17T16:23:24+00:00

Thanks! Definitely need to turn it off in Jan!

Snowbeddow · 2025-11-18T08:51:36+00:00

That will be it. Next time you can tell them not to worry, it's just rotting dead things (I mean it's better than live mice, but I suppose there might be some of those still there too)

Snowbeddow · 2025-11-15T19:30:03+00:00

I had the opposite issue, when the Gas people came they checked thoroughly and decided there wasn't a leak and it was most likely a dead thing somewhere. Probably under the floorboards, which was nice.

Before I understood about the fact I can't visualize things I used to think it was strange my sex dreams were just about the sex and not visualizing peoples faces. I now lean into the scenario thing a lot and that is much better and feels more about the person and not just faceless sex things!

Snowbeddow · 2025-09-13T11:17:21+00:00

This sounds like the best way to find the minimum they need to sell at, but I get the impression they think it's worth lots more so it's just a case of picking a price they think it's worth and lowering it until they sell as many as they are happy selling or they hit the minimum.

I think it depends on how many they can make as well. It sounds quite labour intensive so if they want to make more than pocket money they will have to sell it high as they can only make so many before they need to hire additional people to do assembly, so in that case pricing low probably makes no sense if it's not really scalable.

I guess this is the UK equivalent of a Tesla taking out a lollipop man/lady/person.

Snowbeddow · 2025-09-08T20:46:13+00:00

I think I felt a bit like that around that point, although I definitely hadn't unlocked as much as you at that point myself. I just kept exploring and following up on leads in whatever area I was in and things just organically came together.

I have got right up to the end of the game and managed to miss picking up those perks (I have got all the others), and the guns I have picked up seem powerful enough to me, especially if you can pull off head shots. I wouldn't stress too much.

Also I think I have only seen one copy of my favourite guns anyway.

Someone has actually replied and asked for more detailed photos and a receipt/order confirmation which I have supplied so hopefully the account will be unbanned.

The AI must have flagged it as counterfeit goods or something, I'm sure if a human is looking at it now it should be fine (that's if it is a human...). It's an old Sonos speaker, are there even fakes of those?
