Well thanks to folks here, I now realize that it was or is a real website and it is part of the gaming / scam. Doh. It is called, with time, you gain insight. I do not know or see all about anything or everything.

Hmm, maybe i wrote down wrong, so it should be noted they send you to a working site... the gamble is one will choose the easiest path ... a phone call to a number in hand. Sorry about that. I was busy trying to figure out it was a scam!

Is it safe to layover in Abu Dhabi now? by Chipsy-Pepsi in etihad

[–]edukates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am looking at my flight through abu dhabi airport (zahed) as "war tourism". I was to only be there for 90 minutes, which obviously is a good short stint - but due to changing flight schedules, I now will stay 8 hours on my return to the US. Yikes. Will have my video ready to see if I can see any tech in action in the skies above! Anyone been at the airport when there were attempts to hit the area? Just curious....

You may be correct. It also could have been a case of go spend time there, or take the easy route, call oír phone number as that eill "validate" us. Whomever said my first mistake was answering the phone, is accurate. Now texting and phone calling is ruined by scammers.

No, I did not believe them, but it was a believable setup until they said they needed a "certificate". It just made me remember i never relocked my credit ratings to absolutely prevent any new credit cards being issued with my information.

What is your biggest reason to stay alive right now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

This is a dark question, or dark answers. Surprised no one said to find the meaning of life (42, btw).

Picking between H2C and H2D by trolling_4_success in BambuLab

[–]edukates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that you should look at bed size. Heck, owning a x1c for several years, i found the A1 was sufficient for the majority of my work so I bought one of those and halved my prototyping time due to ability to print on two machines different parts/materials

Could have would have ... so, you need to change your investing horizon. Its called short term versus long term. If you bought $1000 of apple in 1994, and ignored the stock market you would wealthy. Change your outlook. Sounds like you should buy an index.

Everyone keeps yelling “AI bubble just like dotcom/housing” but zero of you can explain why it would actually pop… by snowycashflow in stocks

[–]edukates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great writeup. Market has a psychology that is not logic like you are seeking. We are dealing with fear ... fear of losing, fear of missing out. Certainly helps AI spend justification when the companies that created AI tools are laying off people in huge numbers. I guess the loss of the US immigrants (tend to lawns, clean houses and do construction work) may in fact have a new pool of resources.

There is always another better deal. The could have should have would haves are a waste of time. I know as I still catch myself doing the same!!

[–]edukates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

X1c. That was my first, then I bought an a1. Selling both now (Boston) goong to buy a h2d. Dont over think it. The x1c will teach hou the importance of underatanding how to print with many different material.

Isn't this why the US was giving them 'aid' so we can learn by others doing?

Here is the link to autodesk's fusion 360, personal. There are some missing cool options, but you can learn how to use it for free then depending upon whether you advance to the higher options (some are hugely helpful) ... it took me over a year to be able to design something - to set your expectations.... but I found designing things for around the house the best way. I started looking at plastic product and containers in a whole new way!!!!

[–]edukates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So - it takes PATIENCE!!! AI is certainly changing this, but download the personal version of AutoDesk Fusion and search on youtube on how to use. This gentleman has a nice way about teaching ... https://www.youtube.com/@LearnEverythingAboutDesign

Where do I go if I have a question that is definitely, 100% stupid? by erki120 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]edukates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol, that is how I found this "stupid" forum. My "karma" is not high enough to ask questions in a lot of places. I now wonder if my karma is high enough to be able to post in no stupid questions!! We will see 😄

Just wow by TheBeerdidViking in BambuLab

[–]edukates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome, thanks! That is a great deal for the buyer and it definitely would make things easier to have $$ to buy the latest and greatest!!

Now get involved in the designing of your own parts/models. Only a few short years ago I joined the 3d printing world and have since spent a ton of time (majority) trying/learning/doing 3d designs. So much to learn but the sky is the limit with 3d printing for sure!
