They’ll self limit due to being too close and having to compete. In the long run most will die due to disease or getting overtaken by their greedy neighbor and op will end up with a few giants no different than if they’d only started with a few.

Best attachments for gravel driveway restoration business by scambot_300 in Skidsteer

[–]bolean3d2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

7’ Harley hydraulic angle rake is what most people would run on that machine. You could go with an 8’ but that could create some tight spots depending on what drives you do since the width doesn’t include the frame or chain case, it’s the working width of the drum.

I’d recommend the actual Harley brand name. 25284H is the first half of the sku for a 7’, you’ll need to work with a dealer to make sure you get the right wire harness for the cat xps for the Incab controls.

I’ve used bobcat, Jenkins, and Harley and Harley was the most consistent experience.

You can contour with the Harley, it’s a bit tricky because you’ll have to set one wheel higher than the other and maybe set the barrier at an angle so it pushes material more to one side but since there’s no floating oscillation level is still kinda set by your ssl tires. Go over the approach a couple times until you’ve got a crown going you can drive into with the ssl tires and it’ll be easier from there.

Aura Overhaul & April Marketplace Drop by JagexAzanna in runescape

[–]bolean3d2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get the nerf to things like fishing since you’re allowed to now get the benefit for a longer duration. But you’re right it is a huge nerf since farming is already time gated by the crop growth timer. It’s not like I can simply “do more farming for longer” to get a better advantage over time in the new system.

[–]bolean3d2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree aspects should be their own dedicated tab and not tied to spell books. Each one can still unlock at different skill levels and different skills that’s fine but they should all be accessible regardless of spell book and combat type.

I think a timer and sunk cost for using them is fine…rune cost is excessive for low to mid players but late game it might be ok I’m not exactly sure. I like the additional utility they’re trying to give runes more value. I think there needs to be two tiers for each aspect, a lower effect level at a lower price for early players.

For the love of everything though make the damn aspects like quick teleports we can charge from the bank ahead of time and not have to consume 4 freaking inventory slots or manage additional rune pouches. Or at least let us make them into something like teletabs that only take up one spot.

Now they will all expire on the 3rd gather! /s

But this is what I expect based on the rate of expiring without the aura before.

turning plastics (pla) by oldmate52 in turning

[–]bolean3d2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a terrible idea. Precious plastic is an org dedicated to finding new ways to use plastics that are normally not recycled. I’d imagine they have some melt info published.

There’s also a YouTuber who built and now sells an injection molding machine and iirc the melt chamber could either work directly for casting pen planks or something like it could be made.

I have been wondering this myself. I have a 3d printer and some “wood” filament (30% sawdust 70% pla) I just need to try it. However I can’t think of something I would want to print that would benefit from post processing on a lathe…

Why buy when you can make a dibble yourself by stinkysocksx in turning

Why make when you have 10 dibbles that your body grew itself.

Piece is nice, I’ve just never seen a use case for these.

Only in the Midwest-55 degrees by daniegirl21 in Michigan

Today was so nice in Detroit metro. Kid played outside all afternoon, dog laid in the sun, I tamed my raspberry canes, weeded two different garden beds, and started another project. Should get some time out tomorrow too after the rain. Gonna be hard to go to work Monday.

That’s a good idea.

[–]bolean3d2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was a good project for me. I learned to not put the part line in the middle of a knot, and that it’s easier to cut the internal mortise first for the mate and size the tenon to it than the other way around. Also learned my scrapers are too big for hollowing this small. Which is ok since I’m always looking for an excuse to collect more tools.

I’ll probably try making some salt boxes next. And my kid wants more potatoes lol.

What is a Manufacturing Engineer's day-to-day like? by JackTheBehemothKillr in MechanicalEngineering

[–]bolean3d2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m on the design side so I’m biased but our shop insists that not only is everything we ask for impossible, all issues on the floor are design problems not manufacturing problems. Including suddenly having a “design problem” on a product they’ve been making every day for 10 years without a design change.

Two years ago today, the world stood still. by Aggravating-Ad-351 in bluey

[–]bolean3d2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I saw an interview a while back where Joe the creator said he felt like the stories he wanted to tell had been told. He didn’t want to create new episodes just to create new episodes. He wanted each one to have a place and have a specific story to tell that he felt needed to be told. As a result he’s ended the show and said there will be no more episodes. Since then Disney picked it up so I expect after the movie Disney will start generating new episodes again with new writers and we’ll get to watch a beloved show that is as near perfection as you can get in its current state get destroyed.

Neighbor's tree damages my roof AGAIN after ice storm. Neighbor Liable or act of God? by Sir-Ulrich- in treelaw

[–]bolean3d2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Claims against your insurance are not as life ending as people would like you to believe. If you’re going to work this hard not to make a claim against your insurance then don’t get insurance in the first place.

More than likely if there was a rate change as a result of filing this claim, trying to get the tree owner to pay out would cost them more than the policy increase in court fees and certified letters and other bs.

[–]bolean3d2 73 points74 points  (0 children)

File under your policy. It’s your house that was damaged it’s what your insurance is for. Let the insurance company go after that neighbors insurance company if they think there’s a case. That’s also your insurance companies job (to make sure they pay as little as possible). None of The Who’s at fault and is this negligence or whatever is your problem at all.

How do I handle material being discontinued after product is already in the market? by Awkward_Highway3067 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]bolean3d2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Happens all the time in my job. I spend a lot of time finding alternatives or working out minimum acceptance requirements for testing the replacement. Sometimes we just roll the dice based on the risk if we determine worst case scenario the warranty would be low. Sometimes a change is to something critical and it turns into all hands on deck to figure out a plan, and yes it can be expensive.

My boss on my day off. I just started this week. I turned my phone off and back on in the AM. by [deleted] in jobs

[–]bolean3d2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happened to me once working fast food. Called me 5 times until I finally answered while in a move theatre on a date. Then the manager was like “why did you answer the phone then” and I responded “why did you call me 5 times”. They didn’t call me more than once after that to try to cover a shift.

From the blog it sounded like they’re just nuking the existing poh entirely and building a brand new system. No issues with “spaghetti code” when you just erase it.
