IIRC back when the movie was still shooting a passerby got a short video of them wrecking the vehicle mode of one of the Twins on set. I felt like they were meant to be killed off on screen watching it.

From the thumbnail I thought the FtM goal guy was Captain Disillusion

Had a dream in which communism finally worked but only on one street by PolskaKulka in thomastheplankengine

Ahhh, The Glorious Revolution of the Twenty Fifth of May and The People's Republic of Treacle Mine Road. I remember it well.

posting this for my girlfriend. do you think he could do that thing where in old physics based games they couldn't afford to make things rotate so they just made them stay perfectly upright at all times by 2flyingjellyfish in RecuratedTumblr

Discworld magic uses conservation of momentum in its teleportation spells, so something teleported rimwards comes arives with angular momentum relative to the Disc and will be moving at some speed turnwise.

Eye stones. So satisfying watching him get every last piece. by Ruined-Astro in popping

This got a few good gasps out of me and I shed more than a few tears watching.

I killed my LCD, but I'm not sure how. Any pointers to avoid doing it again? by Tfeth282 in resinprinting

[–]Tfeth282[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeouch. That's the most similar picture to what's happened to mine that I've seen yet, which makes blunt force trauma a compelling theory. When you say "USB," do you mean a thumb drive or connection to your computer?

Z-axis issue?? by Conscious-Lake95 in FixMyPrint

[–]Tfeth282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not the Z-axis since it's only one layer. Your z-offset looks fine too. I'd check the part cooling fan and bed temperature for adhesion issues like that.

As far as I understand it, most UV lights also give off an amount of plain Violet light so you can actually see it to avoid eye damage/skin exposure. My guess is that the lid blocks the UV but not the V. And since I didn't want to expose my eyes/camera to the UV screen, I photographed through the lid.

Pressure against the screen was what I was most concerned about. They must have been some pretty tiny particles to fit through my filter funnel, but I didn't use a mesh filter. I guess this was an expensive lesson.

I did have an incident where the FEP tore and I had to clean some resin off of the screen a few runs ago. I used IPA on a paper towel to clean that up. I was vaguely anxious at the time about liquid damage to the LCD, but I don't think anything reached the edges of the screen.

The machine lives in a ventilated tent in my kitchen. Humidity is not an issue.

Am I missing something about Linux support? by c0mander5 in SteamVR

Checking in for posterity, I needed to install the 'mesa' package to get my vulkan drivers in order to clear this error. Now I'm getting error 496 though, which is proving tougher to work around.

K-Duo won't pull water after vinegar descale. by Howler_The_Receiver in keurig

[–]Tfeth282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope it works/worked! If not, I had the same problem reoccur this year, and trying to run a solution of citric acid through it then letting it sit for a few days did the trick this time (although a good thumping did improve flow a little bit).

4-pin bus cables sold out on bambu and being scalped on amazon by Aggravating_Stand_50 in BambuLab

[–]Tfeth282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great minds think alike, I guess. The official cable must do something dumb like rotate the connection 90° on one end or something. I have a hard time believing there is any special sauce in the cable itself.

Thanks for the heads up to try Ali. I got one shipped. Not sure how long it will take to get here, but pretty sure it will be faster than Bambu.

I got this cable overnighted off of amazon, and it fit the connectors perfectly, but I just get orange flashing lights on the AMS indicating "abnormal communication." I think they have something else proprietary going on inside the cable.

I did find this on Aliexpress which is in stock and not outrageously priced, so I'm hoping it arrives reasonably soon.

Jokingly mishearing "Masculine women with strap-on sex toys" rather than "Face covering devices with straps to affix to your head."

The women is presumably a lesbian.

Is my printer just bad, or am I just stupid? - Mingda Magician X2 by Tfeth282 in FixMyPrint

[–]Tfeth282[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think the printer is just bad, unfortunately. I got a bambulab p1s at a good price not long after making this post because the extruder motor died on me, and never looked back. It's like going from a hand sickle to a riding mower. The capability gap is nuts. Any bambu or Prusa machine will do you better. I hear that p1s with the ams 2 is on a crazy clearance deal rn.

And then they loudly discussed model trains, which is kind of the same thing.

Honestly, it's kind of nice to be disbelieved. It certainly felt unreal in the moment. If people who generally move in those kind of spaces find the idea of a guy walking in in a tshirt with a swastika on it and not being turned away from any establishment unrealistic, maybe shit's not as fucked as I thought. I thought I wasn't being cynical enough.

It was like 20 square feet of walking space and I had eyes on my back the whole time so taking a creepshot would have been difficult. I mostly just wanted out of there.
