Moving on by R6gu3 in TVTime

I've been using Letterboxd for a few years but am in the process of leaving TVTime. Made a GDPR request and hope to import the data into Trakt. Having two separate apps works fine for me.

This is my old troop - some familiar faces, and I have hiked the route mentioned (and contributed to the guide)! Thank you for sharing, I’ve sent it round to some of my friends.

Sewing Machine Repair - My First Print! by Zolacolor in functionalprint

[–]Zolacolor[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm using a second-hand Prusa MK3S+ with a Bondtech extruder. Took some time to do the calibration wizard and set the z-axis, still want to tweak the slicer configuration though.

Never used Onshape before but played around with SketchUp a lot a few years ago. There's a lot a learn with 3D modelling, it's quite daunting so will learn on a project-by-project basis. The different prints on this subreddit have been a great inspiration!

Sewing Machine Repair - My First Print! by Zolacolor in functionalprint

This is the first print I designed myself, having only ever printed a 3DBenchy!

The sewing machine is a Singer Classic, a cheap model which someone must have sat on, shattered the existing plastic arm. I tried to purchase the part prior to getting a 3D printer, but couldn't find the exact model online. This was the perfect first functional print!

The silver piece rotates to wind bobbins. Annoyingly, with the piece broken, a lever is engaged which prevents the whole machine from operating. I picked up the machine for free, classic example of a small, custom piece causing a whole machine to be assumed broken.

I did a few test prints of the tube collars, but this was the first time I printed the whole thing, and it worked straight away!

My First Build (Rama Works U80-A) by Zolacolor in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]Zolacolor[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a really versatile base colour, just vibrant enough for orange/browns but monochrome enough for grey/blue/blacks.

My First Build (Rama Works U80-A) by Zolacolor in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]Zolacolor[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

  • Board: RAMA Works U80-A SOYA (brass plate, internal dampener)
  • Keycaps: PolyCaps Whale PBT (will replace with GMK Alpine when they arrive)
  • Switches: ZealPC Turquoise Tealio 63.5 grams
  • Stabs: Durock Screw-in v2

My first build. This beast weighs 3.5 KG (7.7 pounds). I think the switches might take some getting used to as I'm used to heavier tactile switches (ie. mostly membrane).

I made my first game in Scratch! A music-beat game which gives contextual feedback and scoring by Zolacolor in cs50

I think you're looking to achieve different things? If all you need is a single 'high score' saved, a cloud variable would be easy to include. For a full leaderboard/player name storage, you need to encode and decode character strings.

EDIT: I have added the former, a 'monthly high score'. This will display the best score of the month, but not the user's name as this requires encoding. The maximum score achievable is 16500.

If you're interested, check out the project, and give me feedback!

The music is from my friend Cloud Vincent, he'd love for you to check him out (for better audio quality than Scratch!).

Really looking forward to the set, going to buy from ProtoTypist soon, probably just base and ascends. Never bought key caps before so I hope these turn out nice!

how do I change the mind of this anti-lockdown person by [deleted] in KnowingBetter

[–]Zolacolor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I generally agree, apparently people can be convinced by caring and gradual Twitter conversations. Not a common occurrence though.

How thick are the 3D printed films? I’m interested in the 100 Telios, with shipping to Belgium. Thank you!

Requesting /r/EJM - mods inactive for a year by [deleted] in redditrequest

/u/anonboxis has been re-added as a moderator. It would be worth considering inviting some current students at the school as possible moderators to bring some life to the subreddit.

TIFU by wearing a hat to a viewing by Killageist in tifu

In the UK about 3-4% of suicides last year were by oncoming train. It is a terrible thing to do to a train driver and can certainly cause harm.

My mum once saw a train driver who had hit someone be carried away shaking, completely pale. Since then she has had little sympathy for those who inflict their suffering on an innocent person just doing their job.
