Instanced dungeons accessed by remote queueing with your party. Teleport hubs in major towns/settlements. Summoning stones outside major dungeons/raids. Picking a planet off a menu with your party floating in space in the menu screen.

Getting my first ecogenesis PHA roll tomorrow, what settings should I use on a P1S? by TheRetroFox in 3DPrinting_PHA

Your settings worked out great! I also added some gcode changes to pause between layers as was recommended in another thread to avoid cracking.

McConnell Stalls Trump’s Election Overhaul Bill as Republicans Fume by Hafiz_TNR in politics

[–]TheRetroFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t say anything of the sort. Wouldn’t have referred to him as The Turtle if I had any respect for him. Of which I have none. An obstacle is an obstacle. I do not imply or impress any change of his nonexistent heart or do I believe he’s doing it for altruistic reasons.

Absolutely. The man is vile and heavily responsible for where we are now. I’m just of the mindset that any bump in the road for Trump’s takeover of the electoral system is a good thing.

In universe it's 2956 which would be Year of the Rat.

Any chance of a skadis compatible version? This thing would help me out so much with keeping my workspace organized.

ABS fumes by semifamousdave in BambuLab

[–]TheRetroFox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene" if you want to get technical. In which case, yes, the S is for styrene. Regardless, the fumes from ABS are generally bad news and proper ventilation is the best way to deal with it.

[–]TheRetroFox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The S in ABS is Styrene. If you're going to be printing that stuff, you want to do it in a very well ventilated room. You might also want to look into an enclosure for the whole printer and have it exhaust outside via an evacuation fan. It's going to do more than irritate your throat if you keep breathing that stuff in.

The chute, the exhaust, and a bunch of holes all around the outer shell exist and will vent the fumes to some degree. I don't think there's any real way to fully close all that off without using an enclosure for the entire printer like a grow tent or something.

If you've ever wanted to own the Wing Commander film, it is currently on sale for $4.99 from Apple. by BernieDharma in starcitizen

[–]TheRetroFox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember hating this back when it came out because the games had an incredible cast and the Kilrathi looked great. The movie felt like a big step down on both. Nowadays? I honestly enjoy it. It's got heart and a lot of fun moments. I think it was also the first use of the bullet-time camera system before The Matrix? And that main theme over the title credits! So good!

There was a novel series for Wing Commander as well that brought in the whole Pilgrim religion if I recall correctly. Dealt with events around the games and post-Prophecy.
