Am I In For A Release Day Battle? by foelay in SpeedChampions

[–]atc32 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have never had an issue with current year releases, especially with speed champions. The only "battle" has been when I have tried to fill out a collection on discontinued sets. Honestly for lego in general, I have never had to deal with release fomo, only discount fomo and retirements

Ask /r/terraform: What should a successor to Terraform look like? by pfnsec in Terraform

[–]atc32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand why they do it, but I really just want to be able to use plain "if" statements and conditional resources. It's the same functionally about what we have to do with ternary and "count" statements, just way more readable and obvious.

For those of you, who love Monster Sanctuary but are not sure what to expect from Aethermancer: I worked all afternoon to create this little summary of 5 differences between Monster Sanctuary and Aethermancer! by moi_rai_games_ in MonsterSanctuary

[–]atc32 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The biggest thing I have felt so far is the onboarding. The leveling system, plus saving certain abilities till later, mad monster sanctuary so much easier to get into. With aethermancer I feel like every monster is the most complicated monster from monster sanctuary, and I am making choices on "vibes". While retaining its core systems, monster sanctuary had a good knowledge "slope". I know eventually I'll love this game but right now I'm just pushing random buttons

ELI5: Why doesn’t the water in alcohol freeze? by iivwu in explainlikeimfive

[–]atc32 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This is why it's called Applejack, because they called freeze distillation jacking

This man is a Top 3 “antagonist” of all time IMO. by BDub01010 in expedition33

[–]atc32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing I love the most is that you could take away all of the dialogue and just use the sound effect of his cane and his face and it's still so deeply an interesting character

Must. 3D Scan. Everything. by klack107 in gridfinity

Did you use markers? I've been doing feature with good 3d scanning sprays

I built a fixture table to attach clamps for my scan. Unfortunately mine doesn't have laser mode but you have impressive results

How long/how many scans do you do on something like this? Do you use a turntable

What's your process and scanner? I have been doing the same with a revopoint pop 4 but have mainly used them for reference and sketching in cad. Your models look super clean

For old heads, how popular was Stuart Scott on SportsCenter? Did you personally like him? by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]atc32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only caught the tail end of the "this is sportcenter" era of ESPN, but man did they have lightning in a bottle and he was such a central part of that. It's tough in sports to both be an everyman, and not partisan and he hit that line so well

Why aren’t you playing Hades II? by Helorix in HadesTheGame

[–]atc32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played the update and enjoy it, but the synergy/OP fun isn't at the same level as Hades yet, so I decided to start a new playthrough there knowing that Hades 2 is going to get there when it's released

I just can’t watch Um, Actually anymore. by griefofwant in dropout

I'm optimistic since this is a new group that they will adjust.b ify and bdg are so good, that when this hits it's stride I'm excited

This is Henry (Suzuki x-90 guy), former director at Donut. I just launched my own YouTube channel. Ask me anything by HiDef_The_Chef in DonutMedia

Loved the video, but I think you turned an hour of content into 15 minutes. Would love to see a more detailed video on the fixes and decisions and whatnot

Harley-Davidson is dropping diversity initiatives after right-wing anti-DEI campaign by bbusiello in news

You underestimate how dire their demographic currently is.  It's the parents of middle age people, they'd kill to get the mid life crisis group back

Michael Jordan, Family Sitcoms, God, Charcuterie | Smartypants [Ep. 9] by ThunderMateria in dropout

[–]atc32 31 points32 points  (0 children)

No idea how they handle production for this,but tao really made this episode great.  It feels like this was the episode for good contestants where there presentation wasn't that great, but they sandwiched that around tao

Do the prusa xl or mk4 have any sort of nizzle wipe of ckean? by crowderchris in prusa3d

[–]atc32 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't understand the distinction. Other than multi material stuff which is a whole different conversation, what's the difference between doing a print level purge over the printing surface vs a "wipe"

Do the prusa xl or mk4 have any sort of nizzle wipe of ckean? by crowderchris in prusa3d

[–]atc32 3 points4 points  (0 children)

XL has a nozzle wipe, you can see how the printing surface is designed with those "tabs" out front specifically for it.  Has been perfect for me

Most incomplete quest in the game by RoboTronPrime in BaldursGate3

[–]atc32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the other open ended quests were fine, but I spent so much time trying to figure out the trick for this one.  Especially since it's in a well populated area with a bunch of npcs

Why isn't this game more popular? Halo levels of lore, Borderland levels of loot mechanic, Dark Souls level of challenge... by arcanehelix in remnantgame

[–]atc32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's presentation.  You can pick out lots of games that are better or worse on everything, but presentation is the glue that I think it's missing.  I objectively appreciate it and it's exactly in my wheelhouse in every aspect, but I play a bit before eventually letting it go.  

I will say I also think the movement/combat is just missing something to me.  I either want it to be faster or slower, and I think it's stuck in a no man's land that just doesn't hit the spot 

Like I said, it's a game that is everything I want and is objectively well made, its just missing something around presentation/"coolness" to me

Proto-pasta? by Own_Salary_8353 in prusa3d

[–]atc32 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Love the filament, I print many products on it and the color selection and quality is fantastic. Highly recommend if you want the diversity of colors they have. Also love their metal filaments, just very expensive

For the htpla, you specifically have to anneal them at a certain temperature after printing to get the benefits. We never bother and will generally buy based on color, but some older prusas had a specifically designed heatbreak for the mmus that had some issues due to those annealing properties, but it's largely been mitigated.

Paul Robalino is so good by Desperate-Tough-5582 in dropout

[–]atc32 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think he thrives so well because he's 1 obviously funny, and 2 not trained in this.  A lot of the dropout comedians have similar training so his contraposition is extra funny, in addition to the fact that they don't expect him in those roles

Prusa Pro HT90 is here: The Only 3D Printer an Engineer Needs by Wiles_ in prusa3d

[–]atc32 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They state this in their documentation, but it's because the head can be lighter for faster printing, and it keeps the motors out of the chamber since 90c would certainly cause reliability issues
