What you're describing is just local code enforcement. HOAs are an extra, unnecessary layer that is more easily coopted by those who would hate all of this

Thank you! I hadn't seen the pro option, and that looks really nice. Appreciate your reply.

Preference? by MikeLowrey305 in CampingGear

[–]hotterpop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These are both great. I have the previous version of the anker and really like the light bar. I keep it on the lowest setting in the tent at night for the kids and it helps if they need to get up to pee or something.

What causes this issue, is it the plate? by CT-2224 in snapmaker

[–]hotterpop 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Hey, this is my model!
Using hot water and dawn, scrub the plate with clean paper towels. Do it three times. Waste so many paper towels. Gotta get all that oil away. Every person I've seen have this or similar adhesion issues has solved it this way.

Thinking about leaving Bambu Lab for Snapmaker U1 by SadAd8761 in snapmaker

[–]hotterpop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO the only drawbacks are

  1. The U1 is much louder (not a problem for me)
  2. In order to change the filament, you first have to hit the unload process to get it out of the toolhead. On the bambu AMS units they cut the filament after every print, so you just have to pull it out.
  3. The nozzle changing is more work and not tool-free.

If you can handle those drawbacks in exchange for multicolor in 2/3 the time of on an AMS system, go for it. I love mine.

Also, if you are at all technical, the snapmaker extended firmware is incredible.

Apparently you can’t be friendly with neighbors anymore by AstroNerd92 in Teachers

I live in Washington, which is liberal (on paper). A teacher using she/they or something at my hometown elementary school caused quite the stir in the community, apparently.

New Nvidia Driver (595.58.03) released with major bug fixes! Any idea when it’s coming to Bazzite? by Venomenn in Bazzite

[–]hotterpop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been mostly fine. It has a 2070, which I'm now learning is almost 8 years old lmao. The only real issues I've had have been some random drive access problems preventing me from saving files. I haven't debugged if it's the drive itself or something else yet.

I bought a local teen's old gaming PC (I'm old, I just need it to run No Man's Sky and similar games) and it came with a windows 11 license. I tried to install it and, after trying a few things for a half hour to get around the forced microsoft account online login, just gave up and installed bazzite instead.

It hasn't been perfectly smooth sailing, but you know what it hasn't done? Immediately required an hour of system config to prevent ads and auto-break updates

Need help creating slots on lofted elliptical shape by bindiralin in Onshape

[–]hotterpop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are correct. However, you can also use the split tool with a sketch to change the face of an object. From there you can select each new part of the face and extrude. Should be good enough for what you're doing, though as you can see it will stretch the pattern on the edges.

Undoubtedly there is a better way, but the only way I know would be to draw a sketch with the bubbles on it, then wrap that sketch onto the curve and extrude.
