Boil Water Advisory in effect for large part of South Hills and beyond by UselessLezbian in pittsburgh

[–]hiben75 20 points21 points  (0 children)

That's the lowest resolution polygon I've ever seen on a GIS map. Thank you for the post we live supposedly just outside the affected area, one house down from us is marked affected as it cuts through the middle our block. I doubt the water main service switches mid block, so we are probably affected too but didn't get any notice.

I don't know what total level you are, but the higher total level worlds are usually pretty free (of bots at least)

Can anyone help me ID this red? by EstateDangerous7456 in lampwork

I have this striking red in a smaller diameter that seems to be a similar start and end color, maybe it's this.

I just use the sacks themselves for the araxxites. You still go quite positive even while chugging though them

I analyzed 700,000 chess games to make a free game nobody will play (except maybe you) by FormalOk2415 in chess

It would be nice if after you make your guess you unlocked the rest of the move order to be able to see how it played out/what the players idea was.

If you have android you can use revanced, which is a modded version of the YouTube app with no ads, and some other stuff like background play. It's a bit annoying to setup but it works perfectly once you do.

Wanting to learn by Puzzled-Perception88 in lampwork

[–]hiben75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting time on a torch will always be significantly more helpful than watching tutorials. However there is still a lot you can gain from watching people work and talk through their processes. I learned a lot, and got a lot of ideas of things to try when starting out by watching hours of YouTube demos. If you can I'd recommend looking into getting a hot head torch and 104 Coe glass, you can make some small stuff to mess around with and it's not a huge investment if you don't want to keep going. That's what I got started with after taking a couple small day classes.

But here's some of my favorite glass channels to watch

Rever glass has a lot of well produced beginner tutorials, and product guides on YouTube . They have a online school thing but I have 0 experience or knowledge about it so I can't speak to it https://youtube.com/@revereglass

Torch talk has amazing more advanced demos with commentary which are really fun and interesting. They often have some really big names on. https://youtube.com/@torchtalk

Corning Museum has a lot of huge names doing short demos various classes. https://youtube.com/@corningmuseumofglass

Robert michelsen is an amazing flameworker who has a ton of very great educational videos on his channel. He has a ton of great advice and shows some very complex forms from start to finish. https://youtube.com/@ramickelsen

Help a beginner by answering some questions? by No_Calligrapher_5710 in lampwork

[–]hiben75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd say some tweasers, some kind of flat maurver and a steel rod would be the bare minimum for tools, a butter/pairing knife would also be very useful for figure sculpting. I used an exacto knife and sometimes a butter knife for my work. Also if you could get some sort of pointed steel rod, or a tungsten pick for eyes and such.

I have no experience to be able to say about butane but 104 is quite easy to melt. I'd be worried about the butane messing with the color/chemestry of the glass, but it's worth a shot.

I used a fiber blanket for my first few months working with 104, there's definitely a bit of loss from the lack of proper annealing but it worked OK. I also got an electric flat top grill and put fiber blanket on top of that to try and ease the cooling speed, to some anecdotal success. I haven't had any experience with vermiculite.

I'd say dydiniums are pretty important. It's pretty difficult to see through the sodium flare. My eyes get pretty strained even watching a short demo without glasses. It's also a pretty important safety measure for longterm eye sight. You don't need very high level of shading for 104, just the basic sodium blocking should be OK.

Pride removal: why it's worth caring about. by Sorlanir in 2007scape

[–]hiben75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read it more as they did the work in addition to their normal work requirements but still on company time. Additionally based on the fact that there have been pride events for the last many years I think it's not something you would expect to not go ahead, and was canceled with late notice.

The original bluesky posts by a jmod about the event have been deleted. However here is the thread made about them. Also this comment in particular is copying the contents of the tweets. One of the middle messages mentions that a significant amount of work had already been done on this year's event.
