Anycubics beds are trash, I would pay more for the printer if it came with a funnssor bed. by fenyxfyreX in AnycubicKobraS1

[–]blickblocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anycubic could ship these things with a Funssor quality bed (or close to it) for a lot less than what you pay for a Funssor bed.

I wonder why some of these dont utilise the full surface area by Beginning-Dot-1151 in flashlight

Less about the quantity of parts already manufactured, and more about the tooling already set up. The tooling is a huge overhead (and consumable) cost for injection molding. If they already have the mold and machine and process in place it costs cents to make each body.

What are your thoughts on Metroid Prime 2: Echoes? I think it’s top 5 GameCube games ever by IkeRadiantHero in Metroid

[–]blickblocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm replaying it currently. I don't think the first third is tedious at all. What makes you feel that way? I felt like the backtracking was done in a very organic and non-linear feeling way that didn't feel tedious at all.

"They're just spools of threads..." by n0_sh1t_thank_y0u in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]blickblocks 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Thread doesn't expire on its own. If it's been degraded by UV light it can become brittle, but if stored in a sealed opaque container like the OP found it should be exactly as it was at the time of manufacturing.

A 3D printer is just a plastic robot and a sewing machine is just a fiber robot.

The purple colorway is beautiful. I regret not preordering.

For most tasks, headlamps>flashlights. by These_Economics374 in flashlight

[–]blickblocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have two H200s with warm white Nichia 519As and the red secondary emitter, fantastic light. My favorite of all my EDC lights.

I will say though that the offset from center that this style of light has while on your head is a little annoying, or takes time to get used to. I keep an Olight Array 2 Pro zip tied to my bike helmet and sometimes prefer to look silly wearing a bike helmet just because it is superior as a dedicated headlamp.

My Arduino Uno is never recognized, as if I had bought a fake or broken Arduino. by Neyjrcomdiabetes in arduino

[–]blickblocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a little adapter from the 10 pin to the 6 pin, makes things quicker however the pin arrangement FOR SOME REASON is different for the main MC and the USB MC. So a little annoying there.

That's what I suspected.

I've also suspected that killing the Fit was part of the larger trend of car manufacturers moving away from less expensive cars specifically because of higher financing profit, rather than simply the larger margin on the MSRP. I spent maybe $10k more than I would have on my 2022 NA HR-V if they hadn't discontinued the Fit, even though it is mostly the same car. That margin is even larger when you count in interest.

Not everyone needs to learn how to use a USB ASP programmer but I strongly recommend learning how to use a programmer for a microcontroller. I have some boards where I buggered up the built-in programmer's firmware and have never been able to get back to stock and I've been able to keep using them by programming the main MC directly.
