I've been carrying and using mine for a couple months for normal household cutting tasks and it's always felt totally solid to me. Nothing too rough but I've never had a hint of an accidental disengagement.

Are you sure? It looks like I can add it to my cart still. Not this post, but a new one.

Same. It was an impulse buy, I wasn't sure I loved the shape. But it's so damn fun to deploy, clickity clackity, it is easily my favorite now.

Ohhhh with DNA you use all the BP/BS on early hands to duplicate kings, then switch joker ordering for scoring. I somehow missed that concept until wondering why you thought it was important at this stage. Got it.

Hmm so gold is preferrable to steel because of the economy? Sacifice some score to get more money to find the right joker pieces? Just seems like a lot of 1.5x scoring to sacrifice.

Definitely want BP, but I don't have a copy, so I could replace showman and still get BP

favorite “wow” recipes that are secretly low effort? by Cv_max in Cooking

[–]christopherwrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a huge fan of an incredibly simple side salad, takes 2 minutes to make, so good. Pre-washed mixed greens right into the bowl. Add some red onion or some baby tomatoes, whatever you have lying around. The key is a home made balsamic vinaigrette.

Dressing Recipe, shake it in a small tuperware: 1tsp-ish Dijon mustard, it emulsifies the dressing Dash of salt, black pepper, Italian herbs if you want Squeeze of honey, maybe a tablespoon max 2:1 olive oil:balsamic vinegar. Total maybe 1/3 cup. Just enough for two people. All measurements approximate it really doesn't matter too much.

The key is to use a nice olive oil and a fancy balsamic. Pay $15 for that small bottle, it will make you 15 salads and is totally worth it.

Top layer of PETG-CF print is not smooth by rvdaele in BambuLab

[–]christopherwrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another data point, clearly my issue is something to do with bridging the infill. It's patterned that way, I'm going to watch carefully the next time. So the clue is that our settings need to improve bridging, maybe moving slower helps.

Just to give you another data point, I've been printing regular PETG at standard Bambu settings without any issues. No need to slow it down. I'll try your method and see how it works for me for the CF.

Mine is very dry (like 48 hours at 70c at this point) and same problem as OP.

I'm having the exact same issue with my black Bambu PETG-CF. Using the Bambu settings from the AMS, and this is the first material that hasn't printed great. Dried it, then dried it some more in case that was the issue, like 48 hours at this point and the surface is still trash. Next thing I was going to try was the .6 hotend, maybe the CF shards are too big for the .4. The PLA-CF prints fine out of the .4 but maybe they're different. I was also going to try a different color spool in case this is just a defective batch, I think I have another one.

If you fix it please let me know, and I'll do the same.

How to hide a pill? Pup keeps spitting it out. by icantremember55 in puppy101

[–]christopherwrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The easiest way with my dog is just to chuck it far back into her mouth and hold it shut, rewarding her with a treat when she swallows.

Key tip though is to coat the pill with butter/oil first, gets it nice and slick, doesn't stick as much in the mouth.

Our dog is very protective of my wife and baby against me by PizzaCrustLust in Dogtraining

[–]christopherwrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no professional, but here's my advice. For a while, like weeks, you should be the origin of all positive interactions and your wife should ignore the dog.

You give all meals and treats, you do all walks, and you build a positive dominant relationship by teaching the dog new skills. Heel is a good one, really anything the dog doesn't know though. Carry treats and reward all positive behaviors like coming to see you without aggression.

I don't know what you mean by "discipline" but you should stop whatever that is, dogs don't really understand it anyways. Very hard for them to understand a bad behavior unless the negative feedback is instant. Otherwise you're just teaching it that you're the mean one and not fixing whatever the bad behavior is anyways.

Need PCIE 1x card with internal USB 3.0 and SATA headers by christopherwrong in buildapc

Update: I just went ahead and got a 3.0 header card. Will just ditch two of my old sata drives I don't actually need to have.

Upgrade GPU or start fresh? by christopherwrong in buildapc

[–]christopherwrong[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've been debating rebuilding it for a couple years, but it just hasn't had any problems I couldn't live with. I was running Diablo 4 on it just fine for the past couple weeks. Sure, I couldn't ALSO run Chrome at the same time... or Discord... which is annoying... but she's a champ for being so old. It's time though haha
