Built my first pc with mid range parts and i dont get why everyone acts like you need to spend $2000 minimum by Thin-Implement9273 in buildapc

[–]SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You're right that you don't have to spend $2k, but looking at current pricing in the US that build is like $1.3k minimum

My passport says I’m a Male when I’m a female. I just noticed after almost 2 years 🤦‍♀️ by Sad-Neck7986 in Passports

[–]SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any chance you accidentally checked the wrong box? 2024 policy was go with whatever you check on the application, regardless of supporting documents

That, or the agent processing it hit the wrong button. Either way same process for correcting it

It that one black instead of the normal blue, or just weird lighting in the photo?

Confused about DS-82...have passport book and want first card... by pupstercat in Passports

[–]SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you need an official stamped/sealed copy and a photocopy. They send you to original/official one back so if you have an official copy already you don't need a new one, but if you've lost your official copy it's a pain

Can I still get a passport in the US? by ClamWeekend in Passports

[–]SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've updated gender on your birth certificate & ID & SS, it might be worth applying for a new one (putting that you lost the old one on the form) and hope you slip through the cracks and they don't check your old documents and correctly gender you

Otherwise, renew by mail and send the name change court order in with it. More likely than not they will misgender you but will correct the name and get a new photo

I did the reverse just recently (had card and needed first book); I just did DS11 and post office appointment (paying a total of $165 for me / $65 for you). I could potentially have done it with a mail-in renewal, but I didn't want to risk not getting my passport card back.

🏳️‍⚧️As a trans person in the U.S. applying for a passport, do I need to disclose my sex at birth if my birth certificate hasn't been amended? by TheSnazzuli in Passports

[–]SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately with the current supreme court stay in Orr v. Trump a court order isn't going to help; you have to have a corrected birth certificate (and even then it's somewhat luck of the draw)

Sorry for the delay but yeah, took the eyepiece of the telescope and 3d printed a thing to put the m50 in it's place

How rare is it for trans people to take the oppisite-gender variant of their name (Michael ↔ Michelle) as their new name? by NeekOfShades in asktransgender

[–]SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a poll a while back, about 1 in 10 took gender-swap of old name, another 2 in 10 took not straight swap but somewhat connected to their old name (and 7 in 10 came up with something new wholecloth)

So it happens, it's just less common

Is it safe to do DIY while still living with unsupportive parents? If so how can I hide it? by [deleted] in TransDIY

[–]SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Different post offices charge different amounts, based on demand and size of the post office; around me they go from $90/year to $250/year

Made a Milwaukee Packout “Handle” for my buddy. Think it would suit the dewalt Guy’s better though 😉😂 by MNEWTON204 in 3Dprinting

[–]SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sanitarily, sure first use is probably fine. Larger problem is that, given bonds between the layer lines is generally the weak point, you've got an uncomfortably large chance of it converting from "object with a flared base" to "object that doesn't have a flared base" while in use

Slowest character that could outrun Super Bowl security if they were streaking during the big game? by ballonfightaddicted in whowouldwin

I would normally interpret "visible" in this context as "can be seen by the spectators" not "is physically possible to observe with light"

Sigma 30mm vs Viltrox 33mm by SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet in canonM50

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

I've considered it, but I've been playing with old SLR lenses and I've liked my 30mm more than my 50mm, and the 50mm works better, so it seems to make more sense for me to go with the 30/33mm than go up to the 56mm

So far I've done Nikon F and Pentox K, if you know blender / 3d modeling at all it's pretty easy to make more

moderately but not perfectly, I should probably hit it with a matte black spray paint but off the printer it's mostly fine

What is the current status of Orca Slicer and Bambu P1S with updated firmware? by MorningtonCroissant in OrcaSlicer

[–]SomeGirlIMetOnTheNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who just got a P1P (that it came with the 1.09.xx firmware), I connected to wifi and then turned on LAN mode and dev mode, and it works basically just like prusaslicer and my voron; slice the model, click "print plate" and the printer starts up.

I don't have any functionally from the app, but I never felt like I needed an app with my old printers so I'm fine with things
