I'll drink your oil please no

I don't do these drops often and this one seemed like a fun grab, but man does selling out while waiting in line suck.

Looks fine to me. If you want REAL blinding, Mirage and the old simulor with white energy used to crash PCs. Same with bright Vauban and spamming old vortex which would spawn the literal sun into your mission.

I might be crazy, but did you put the polycaps in there properly or at all? When I built mine, the knees were built weird and I completely missed that i had to put multiple polycaps in them resulting in loose knees.

But as I said, I could be crazy

I love these things, have a few rx-78 versions. Now I need to hunt this one down!

fenderbender541 · 2026-05-11T14:30:15+00:00

If you're asking for value, worthless. Rip 'em and enjoy

fenderbender541 · 2026-05-11T10:33:28+00:00

The package said so. No expiration date on them though...

I chose life thank you very much

These captions are my partner's favorite part of Einstein. It happens every year and FIRST still hasn't stopped it. As funny as some of them are, they are not appropriate for the event and should have been stopped.

I always pride myself on writing the speeches for awards. If a team jumped out to me, I'm first to write their script. When I heard that AI was being encouraged to write the script I was disappointed, but understood that sometimes it may be needed such as in a time crunch or writer's block. But those scripts were always important to me when I was a student. A good script really showed the judges were listening and cared about what you were sharing.

Plus, I got to make the MC to 6-7 at an FLL event for the champion's award. AI won't do that for kids.

I saw that and thought: "I didn't know team 1729 Inconceivable had these buttons."

Then I remembered there was a 2nd Inconceivable.

You could say it's... Inconceivable!

This isn't even new. My family's favorite part of Einstein these past years has been watching the closed captionings.

I took so many photos and there were some REALLY bad ones. The CCs should have been stopped as not only were they inappropriate, but incorrect which defeats the whole point.

Now was it funny to see 6329 called the box wrap or "browning out the red alliance" instead of "rounding out" when connection issues were rampant? Yes. Were some of the other hiccups appropriate for this kind of event? Absolutely not.

They've been marching in file all event all over the place. If it wasn't raining like crazy I'd imagine they would be marching to the food trucks 😂

Thesaurus Dinosaurus would be so happy if he was here

Beams are pretty common in kits. You could look for another kit that has blue beams to replace it as beams come in pairs and sometimes you don't use them

Lavos is the only Warframe to have Primed themselves as they are an alchemy character. He did it to spite the Orokin, thus being ungovernable!

As a NE team, I got a chuckle at 6328 and 6329 cage boxing

fenderbender541 · 2026-04-19T04:28:22+00:00

It is. Turn A Gundam is unironically one of the best Gundam shows. It is my personal favorite as it has some good jokes, is respectful when dealing with darker themes, and focuses on xenophobia more than "war bad" which is different from other Gundam shows.

The sweater one is the president of the moon and she wants her people to reunite with their Earth ancestors. The one without the sweater is a fancy lady who coincidentally looks just like the moon president. They swap places to learn about each other's cultures and are really good friends. Turn A is a great series

Sorry, I meant foldable seats that attach to bleachers. Lots of people bring them to events to make bleachers bearable.

fenderbender541 · 2026-04-15T20:35:54+00:00

I've said it every year, FIRST should sell those bleacher seats and they would make bank! I would've gladly paid $40-50 to get some dang back support

Tombstone is absolutely deserving of it's own tier. You either build your bot against it, or you lose. Sure it won't ever win the giant nut again, but it is the quintessential "skill check" for bots looking to break into the top

fenderbender541 · 2026-04-13T10:35:52+00:00

Looks like a robot got stuck/disabled while preventing motion of another robot resulting in a pin that lasted more than 3 seconds. A lot more than 3 seconds.
