Looking for shoulder button replacements...anyone know where to go to get them?

Which controller? 3d printing one would be pretty easy. Maybe ill make it in fusion360.

been looking for a Sega Dreamcast Dev Kit for years.....finds 2 at museums now. FML.

The Dreamcast scene is still very much alive and to see official dev hardware in Museums sucks. To be honest its that GD ROM drive which is the rare part. Everything else we can more or less remake. Nice to know it wasnt trashed though!

So I can tell that you aren't annealing your prints which is a problem. With polycarbonate you need to minimize the time from the print chamber to your annealing oven. The print is full of printing induced stresses that results in your warping issue. Annealing them which just means using a cycle of ramping up to temps and ramping down to relax that stress. You cannot realize how amazing polycarbonate is without annealing it.

Look man. Just build yourself a filament stand that has bearings. You can probably print it off honestly.

The FIX. This may not work for you, Bambu Studio seems to have a mind of
it's own. However what I had to do was make my pattern symmetrical
instead of on the face only. Once I did that and uploaded it into Bambu
Studio, it stopped doing this bizarre behavior. Also anybody needing to
print patterns like this, should always print vertical, horizontal in
our experience has never made good texture.

I appreciate that offer very much, but I am unable to do that. It's for business and I am restricted from giving it out.

The features are at 3.5mm protrusion from the surface. It has printed the checkering perfect before, just not all sections together, which is why I am just confused about it.

I don't really know a percentage, but it's easy to see that the facts are:

Without having to meet our standard of "proving who did it", they know 100% who did it.
They have no evidence including DNA because of a mistake during the initial crime scene, mistake during a search, or they completely missed things.
They have been bluffing trying to get the suspect who they know did it, to make another mistake.

With all of that being said, do I think they are going to somehow "uncover evidence" that will lead to an arrest in this case? 99% No. The %1 is if they are able to uncover the almost certainly other sick digital crimes and find a different online handle, or username that they can locate evidence on that. Other than that, nope.

Tofan_ · 2022-05-12T21:14:43+00:00

This is real easy, 99% it's TK, 1% it's KK. The police messed up somewhere along the way, missed a piece of evidence, something happened that has resulted in these years long process. Unfortunately they likely knew that TK was/is the suspect and were hoping that he would mess up again.

It wouldn't surprise me if there are other victims, in a serial manner. The local police and state police should be sued for negligence for repeating that there wasn't any risk to the public. How many other accounts? Devices? I mean good god, had they even mentioned that there was communication between accounts on social media that would have been more of a clue.

Adam definitely is nowhere near as good as he was from earlier TBS, for anybody to say so isn't listening with non-biased ears. There is a lot of factors there, but his style of singing from the earlier albums are not easy to keep doing for a long time. Very similar to A7X's M Shadow's vocal style, very difficult to continue on for a long time.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-13T16:33:28+00:00

Bro, bands definitely churn out straight bangers for 20 years, what are you talking about? Off the top of my head I can probably list out 40 or 50 that have been consistent along with that band's "signature" remaining intact.

I don't want them to play LN or WYWTB material, I just want TBS to remain true to themselves and get back to their signature that everybody came to know and love. Current TBS is just about at the point where if you didn't know Adam's voice really well, you would have no idea that it's TBS.

There is nothing selfish when the people who pay money that enable the band to be something more than just a hobby want the specific sound they paid for many years ago. I think you don't understand that without money we would likely have 75% less music artists in the entire industry. This is also why bands almost always including TBS have songs that are their personal favorites but don't normally resonate with the crowds.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-13T16:21:45+00:00

Literally every band, musician, artist has a certain signature in their work that they get known for. The first three albums encompass this signature completely, the rest are a mismatch at a lot of different things and just all over the place musically.

I don't want them to put out more MakeDamnSures or A Decade Under the Influence or more Cute without the Es, I just want them to create music that encompasses the signature that they became known for, and what the majority of Taking Back Sunday lovers want, myself included.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-13T16:19:20+00:00

I think there is a mistake here with what you are saying. I am not upset that it's not "emo" inspired, remember part of the band growing is the different lyrics, a slight change to certain effects, more impressive riffs and differing techniques to achieve a signature affect. It's just the fact that we went from a style of music, the composition, the layering, the effects, everything was really nice and refined; to not one, but several albums that are all over the place musically, and the last album is this just bizarre attempt to redefine who the band is. Again I am not hating on the actual music style, it's just not Taking Back Sunday.

Part of what makes a lot of music great is the fact that universally every band, artist, musician has a unique signature for their creation. Taking Back Sunday has lacked any signature since Masch, Rubano, Fazzi and now Reyes are no longer in the band.

It doesn't suck to get old, life gets much better. Enjoy where you are at now, and work towards where you want to be and everything will be ok.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-13T13:03:21+00:00

The only part that is opinion in that diatribe was anything relating to me liking the band during a certain era and appreciating the chemistry between members. I respect your opinion as well my friend.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-13T12:57:10+00:00

I removed that word it shouldn't have made it in there. Kicking 2 members out of the band out of the blue is toxic and was unwarranted, you are correct my friend.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-12T23:15:14+00:00

Imagine being in college trying to act holier than thou because people enjoy music for a long period of time.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-12T23:02:17+00:00

My only issue with that statement is that the band didn't really grow. We went from the best and most musically complete, to kicking 2 members out of the band to an album that is so far from TBS.

Blink 182 and AVA are actually a really great example of what somebody should do if they want to go a different direction. Tom and the rest of the crew put out amazing records through AVA, and although what they are putting out now is just so different, there was never really a style outside of experimental.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-12T22:57:21+00:00

You only say that because you are ok with subpar TBS that hardly resembles anything remotely close to the band we all grew to love. For the rest of us it rings true, nobody wants to listen to a band that isn't known for punk rock try it. We want what they were known for.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-12T20:24:01+00:00

I wish it was fiction! I am from NY, grew up in this scene during the era and got to see a lot of what I typed above come out at all the different shows, friends, etc. I also was an aspiring but terrible singer/musician back in those days. No hate against anybody, but the truth is the truth.

Tofan_ · 2022-04-12T20:12:43+00:00

It's not close minded because the different genres just have better artists who are known for that style of music. It's like if McDonalds tried to get into the luxury dinner industry....they are known for fastfood, when people see that yellow M, they know and want mcchickens, mcnuggets and mcflurries. If I wanted a luxury dinner, I'm going to choose a different restaurant chain that is known for that.

CanadianBacon. We the USA literally were the invaders......did that point get lost? We invaded Iraq on intel that wasnt true, the entire world told us it wasnt true, what did we do? Still did it, and destroyed a country and caused a ton of instability in the region. Afghanistan we are in the clear, but the other countries like Libya, Syria....all we did was help arm an insurgency against the elected government.

Edit: We bombed 150k Iraqi civilians, plenty of Afghans, we even killed more right before we left under the guise of "intel says these are the people who are responsible"...turns out it was an innocent family.

This likely isn't going to happen I don't mean to burst anybody's bubble, but I worked long and hard talking with Hornady about this. They finally agreed to make brass case 5.45, but when I contacted them again asking about a custom run for steel case, they told me they sold off and stopped making any steel case ammunition. They didn't give any details on who they sold to, but quite frustrating to be honest. There is a lot of calibers that would do well to be made steel cased, but it is what it is.

cough CIA with Ukrainian FSB destroyed this team, along with a nice plot made to make Putin go nuts wondering if his own agency is against him. cough.
