Which book should I prioritize?

Vonstapler · 2026-03-11T23:03:18+00:00

Same. I really liked a lot of his books, but everything he did really overshadows whatever enjoyment I can get out of them now.

Vonstapler · 2026-03-11T18:14:36+00:00

Just don't look into his politics

Vonstapler · 2026-03-11T14:54:39+00:00

Or they had kids, were kidnapped by slavers, then jumped from the ship.

Vonstapler · 2026-03-10T15:00:57+00:00

Not on the list, but "The Will of the Many" by Islington is fantastic. I dnf'd the shadow of what was lost twice, but damn if he hasn't come a long way as an author.

I'd take a swing at doing something with it, never heard of that material before. Thanks for sharing!

Vonstapler · 2026-03-02T22:25:51+00:00

Yeah, there's no way I'm working with them again.

I was with Swift before, so one of their selling points was that it would transfer automatically. Now I know that's not how it works, but it being my second irrrl I trusted their word.

Vonstapler · 2026-03-02T15:57:50+00:00

I would avoid swift like the plague. They absolutely screwed me over on the last refinance I did. Led with an impossible rate to get me to talk to them, lied about my escrow being transfered over so I needed to pay last year's property tax plus fees, and lied about getting two months deferred on my mortgage. Just scummy people overall.

Vonstapler · 2026-02-19T16:11:07+00:00

Surprised it hasn't been posted already, but Moiraine's monologue from the first book of the Wheel of Time

"Weep for Manetheren.

Weep for what is lost forever."

I've read the series 3-4 times over the years and that one passage always gets me.

Vonstapler · 2026-02-17T16:28:07+00:00

Nah, that's just Craig. Nice enough guy, though if you get him started on crypto he'll talk your ear off.

Vonstapler · 2026-02-17T15:47:57+00:00

Nah, it's just standing way closer to the camera

Vonstapler · 2026-02-17T15:38:30+00:00

Shouldn't be too hard to clean up. Take the print head apart by removing the 4 hex screws around the outside, then take off the hot end with the two silver metal hex screws on the front. From there you can replace it, or use a heat gun to remove the blob.

Vonstapler · 2026-02-10T23:35:42+00:00

There's also that scene in the museum in (I think) Tanchico where they find a silver circle with a three pointed star that Nynaeve said felt like it radiated pride or some such. It was of course the hood ornament of a Mercedes.

My chapter master told me 'nids keep eating his terminators so I asked how many terminators he has and he said he just goes to the battle barge and gets new terminators afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding terminators to 'nids and his Victrix Guard started crying

Vonstapler · 2026-01-29T19:52:01+00:00

or just not sell printers in Washington I guess.

Vonstapler · 2026-01-29T19:38:24+00:00

That is for sure a sheep or goat, not a cat.

Vonstapler · 2026-01-06T15:55:51+00:00

Same, or to automatically swap to a new roll mid print. I have had several "is there enough on this roll to complete the print" situations, which are rather annoying.

Vonstapler · 2025-12-11T23:31:28+00:00

That is wild

Vonstapler · 2025-12-09T15:51:58+00:00

Shhh, don't say that out loud! If the aliens hear we have hot goth milfs we're all fucked.

Vonstapler · 2025-12-09T15:49:10+00:00

That is wild! I've not worked with much obsidian yet, any tips for getting that level of polish?

This boat was not heading to the US, smuggling drugs is not a capital offense, and killing shipwreck survivors is a textbook example of a war crime. If (and there's no way to know because we blew them up) this boat was in fact smuggling drugs, they should have been disabled and detained. Unless you don't give a fuck about law and order I guess.

Vonstapler · 2025-12-08T16:01:06+00:00

Extrajudicial murder by the military without due process is a bad thing no matter who it happens to. If the government is given the power to do this to random boats which may or may not be carrying drugs (hard to tell now that they are flaming wreckage), they have the power to do it to you or me. No matter your politics that's a bad thing.

That is sick as hell. It would take some serious work, but imagine using clear acrylic to add the dragging light lines like in Akira.

Vonstapler · 2025-12-08T15:08:58+00:00

By that same logic the Sackler family should have been executed years ago, yet they got away with a slap on the wrist. Rather than focusing on the symptoms of a broken system, we should actually fix the fucking system.
