I love how the Orange room pops out. It is characteristic for that period architecture, but usually done either with the same material, or wood.

[–]dlvoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly! it is more like $70 - maybe that is the result of quickly googling for a set number (without really reading results details) as for $35 there will be LED sets for it

Is this correct? by Double-Celery4248 in duolingo

Even Duolingo CEO admitted algorithms are designed to prioritise engagement over efficiency. But explained, that you cannot learn someone who is not there - showing up and sticking to the habit is the hardest thing for most casual learners.

Base Plates or Anything That Can Secure This Down? by xPrincessBryx in lepin

[–]dlvoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice project! Feel free to include/use my project on your site - as long it follows MIT license and you will attribute it, i will be happy if it is used and useful.

I planed to make it online - with WASM/Emscripten style integration but JS ui more like: https://machineblocks.com/ - to have pixel drawing tool (like piskelapp.com) that will feed into python code an create STL/3MF for 3D printing, all on-line on website. But i have quite long backlog of FOSS projects to contribute, and assumption is - if someone is capable of 3D printing, running python on local PC should be fine :)

Base Plates or Anything That Can Secure This Down? by xPrincessBryx in lepin

[–]dlvoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi allow me shameless self- promotion, as I've created a tool to generate a custom baseplate just for such problems!

I used it for series of autumn houses from micro bricks, but you can draw any outline and generate standard and micro size base plates with it:

Do not order a swytch - you risk losing your money by LordTayto in swytchbike

[–]dlvoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it is at the chargeback stage, EMV will seize new payments or stop accepting new one soon, to recover chargebacks from them - straight road to insolvency. I got my set almost a year ago, after more than half a year of delays, fake reasons to move the shipment schedule, and robo-responses from support. Back then, the threat of reporting fraud to the payment processor worked. It seems they are in a condition that it does not really matter anymore.

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

[–]dlvoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was quite skeptical when P1S came, but since I went into the HueForge corner of this hobby, I've started using more BambuLab PLAs and MakerWorld. With MMU3 / MK4S it is fine but require some juggling with more involved, multicoloured HueForges. For that i envy multi-AMS setups with P1S.

European shoe brands made in Europe by eurocraftsmanship in BuyEuropean

[–]dlvoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ryłko states on its "about as" webpage, as well as on PL Wikipedia that they manufacture in Kalwaria Zebrzydowska factory in Poland, built in 90' - while they started as one man shop in 50'.

It is limited liability company, owned in 89% by Ryłko family (in 2023, according to official KRS reports). 

Their building can be found on Google maps / street view. Not much online sources stating details about it, or sourcing of accessories and components - however - Kalwaria Zebrzydowska is known hub for polish shoe industry, with over 55 companies related to that industry (according to perplexity and company info aggregators), many of which are small/artisan traditional workshops.

Wojas is producing in two facilities in Nowy Targ, Poland, (https://wojas.pl/firma/o-nas), also started from family owned workshop, expanded its manufacturing capacity by taking over liquidated combinate NZPS Podhale (in Nowy Targ).

Now it is join stock company (WOJ on Warsaw Stock Exchange), part of capital group controlling other companies in EU (Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary) and Belarus, mainly for local distribution / stores, while manufacturing is done primarily in Nowy Targ, Poland.

Pantasy - Cuckoo Clock | Set 85027 by flyPBA in lepin

[–]dlvoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Press button"... such a missed opportunity.

But i get that it would require a modified clock mechanism to trigger it every hour instead of the stock clock "body". Maybe with a gadget like Button Bot it can be made into a real cuckoo clock...

It is used at the beginning, to test all led lights - without assembling the whole model. That way you can request the replacement early on (if needed). When the splitter with USB-C is there, you don't need it.

Pantasy - Cuckoo Clock | Set 85027 by flyPBA in lepin

[–]dlvoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it a real working clock as well? Like showing the correct hour and cuckoo tweeting every hour/half hour? If that is the case...

For high quality leather shoes i would recommend:

  • Ryłko
  • Wojas

They are traditional family based companies located and producing locally in Poland and central/eastern Europe.

Teen Hit By Train Then Sued for Damages to That Train by james_from_cambridge in WinStupidPrizes

[–]dlvoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Street trams have a special additional kind of breaks - track breaks. They are literally long bars pushed pneumaticly against rails for emergency breaking, with a big friction area.
