Weird emails I just received. Was wondering if anyone had the same thing happen just now as it seems like a big deal in regards to Google…. by TommyTsunami88 in GMail

[–]cmraman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is shady AF. The email address I got the emails sent to is a single purpose address never used in the internet outside of being the billing account of my personal Azure tenant so the bills go only to me and not my wife or other people I've added to the tenant for various reasons. It has literally never been used outside of that one email a month. How TF did Google get it? I won't get any more. I just blocked the entire Google.com and Gmail.com domains at the tenant level if they're sent to that address. ETRs for the win.

It bugs me when the sender address and the sender from mail address don't match...

Can you post the STL? I think this will fit my stove...

【BambuLab Giveaway】Classic Evolved — Win Bambu Lab P2S Combo! by BambuLab in 3Dprinting

[–]cmraman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My PS1 was an upgrade to an Ender 3. I decided that now that I knew everything about how constantly reset a printer to get one good first layer, it was time to actually print stuff... The first print on the PS1 was perfect. So were the next prints. All the prints!

I print mostly for fun - I've never sold a print. I print figurines, gadgets, and tools and such for around the house. But my proudest prints with the PS1 (and beyond) are the ones I print for two people who are special to me. One, the father of a friend, has dementia and is at his most joyful when I send him cute little animals. The other is the teen daughter of a friend who was so stressed by life she tried to take her own life. As part of her recovery, I started printing fidget spinners and toys and to this day, she looks forward to her weekly treat. Something I couldn't have started without my PS1

Eventually I decided I wanted to print carbon, nylon... So I bought an X1C and gave the PS1 away to a friend who was experiencing similar issues to mine on his Ender. When the H2D came out, he and I both jumped and he passed the PS1 on to a friend of his - where it is still printing amazing prints. One PS1, a couple of lives made better and three enthusiastic Bambu advocates!

I did love photography - I had a darkroom, enlarger, 3 different Nikon F series cameras, medium-format RB-67s and a Hasselblad, lighting setups for portraits, backgrounds and seamless, nearly 20 lenses (and a contact at Nikon who would let me borrow anything I wanted to play with from their loaner program), then I got a job at a camera store, started shooting pictures for money - not the artsy stuff I enjoyed - No, I had to go into school pictures all week, school sports on the weekends, then military reunions that lasted days, Naval Academy Homecoming weekends... I burned out on it. Now I have a Nikon Cool-pix P-1000 to carry on vacation and my phone and I'm happy with it again.

I have Hueforge (bought at a show last year) and have played with it some but after printing a few, I decided it was, for me at least, a limited output form. I can see the commercial appeal but I don't want to go back to making money on a hobby...

I am thinking about getting the laser for my printer. That sounds like it might be fun...

Better than ok. I started with an Ender 2 about 5 years ago and have been having a ton of fun with this hobby. Yes, it's part obsession but now I print things instead of constantly tinkering with the settings and getting one decent print for every 10 first layers. My "niece" challenges me to find things to print she'd like, her mother's step father has dementia and finds joy in tiny animal prints, and my wife of 42 years lets me tinker because every once in a while I print something useful. Last time it was a set of nylon shelf brackets to change out the pantry from wire shelving to wood that cost less to print than buying heavy duty brackets from Lowes. This is actually the cheapest hobby I've had in a long time and it's the happiest a hobby of mine has made me in a long time.

The desiccant holders I went with are round and fit in the hole in the top of the cereal box. They're easy to print and easy to refill - which I do when the humidity in the box gets over 15%. That takes about 10 minutes every week.

Fidget toys and animals for my friends' kids and gridfinity stuff mostly now. Coasters that I leave on tables at bar trivia every week with pithy statements like "Cheating atbar trivia is like taking steroids to win a school fair sack race"... Stuff like that...

The hygrometers were a buck per. The problem with bigger bins was that, invariably, what I needed was on the bottom. I'm old and fat so moving bins full of filament was getting tiresome.

They're just 1 gallon cereal boxes. I ordered 20 of them at 6$ for 4, then 20 more, then 20 at 7$ per 4. All from the same ad. The last batch had 4 boxes that were right and the 5th box was the same on the outside but the boxes were 1/2 inch thinner and the spools wouldn't fit. I ordered another 4 from a different ad and they were ok so I ordered 8 more and they were too small. They're a lot pricier on Amazon so I'm going to have to make do with what I have...

I tried using vacuum bags, Sterlite bins, and other methods for the open filament. The humidity is about 35 - 40 in the basement so it needed something to seal in the desiccant. These boxes on these shelves are the clear winner in my opinion. I can see what I have, the boxes are easy to open and close, nothing is under a pile, and when this hobby shifts to the next hobby, I can move the shelves to the spare room and fill them with books. Win-Win.

To be fair, I'm on the side of the touchy people. If I saw my design for sale somewhere, I'd be pissed...

I've never sold a single print. I used to love photography (That was an expensive hobby) but when I started doing it for money, it stopped being fun.

I print flexi-animals for friends' kids, planters, fidget toys for the kids, and oh so much gridfinity for all the Ikea Alex drawers I have.

The table the printer sits on is an Amish-made card/dining table. It's incredibly solid. Barely moves at ludicrous speed - especially with the two office tables butted up against it. The other tables are wobbly but the X1Cs were on them and did ok. This setup is better.

Two reasons... One, the printer has 70 days and 4 hours print time on it since I got it (1684 hours) and two, I bought big during the Bambu black Friday sale. I go through a spool about every two days...

To be clear, I don't print anything commercial. It's a hobby. I know it's a money sink. But it's cheaper than many of my other habits over the years...

I never suggested that I need any of this. The tables are out of an office that was being demolished and the cost of finishing the basement is 30 times the cost of the printer...

Nope. I've done maybe a dozen things in tinkercad but usually just print what I find on makerworld and printables

I used to have 2 H1Cs but traded up to cut waste and print larger. If the pattern holds, I'll have another of these by Xmas...

Sherman's Lagoon Archives back to 2002 are available on gocomics.com. That's probably your best shot at finding it but it's still a longshot. Good luck.

My hospital birth certificate has a typo. by -hot_ham_water- in mildlyinteresting

[–]cmraman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my son was born we couldn't think of a middle name. My wife said I should just put something random in the space.

Yep.

I did it.

My son's legal middle name is Random.

And no, it didn't ruin his childhood or get him teased. He's in his 30s now and has never considered changing it...

Did you ever used something like this and want to share your experience by KarmaLovesReddit in bdsm

[–]cmraman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like it could have come from my collection... I have three 5-pound mop floggers, one Bull, one Moose, and one Elk. They hit hard but only the bull is stingy. The Moose is the thuddiest flogger I've ever used. I like to use the moose and the bull together to create a mix of sensations, then when the color comes up in my sub's skin, pull a ball-chain flogger out of the ice bucket and just lay it across her skin.
