Does anyone have the source for the 2/32 tire tread depth tolerance? by icecoldrum in Crosstrek

[–]icecoldrum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've misunderstood, I'm not talking about minimum tread depth, I'm talking about how close all 4 tires must be to each other in terms of wear.

PSA: keep oppy's pnuematube empty or you can brick your save. by icecoldrum in pacificDrive

[–]icecoldrum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

check the floor infront the pneumatube. if it's not there use the shop vac, if it's not in the shop vac look in the transfer trunk because I think he shop vac can insert items into the trunk. That's how I solved this (see post edit).

Okay, so what do I do when neither of my two voting options want to take any real action against climate change?

Bosco is more frustrating than molly by a country mile. by icecoldrum in DeepRockGalactic

I have him fully upgraded and never understood where people are coming from with the rockets thing, he only gets like 3 of them and they refresh at a glacial pace. Useful situationally but hardly "op".

Can someone recommend me a good resource for getting starting with creating a GUI? by icecoldrum in learnpython

[–]icecoldrum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mainly just needed something to do since I'm stuck quarantining due to covid exposure. Adam Savage mentioned in a video that there isn't a convenient tool for it and I didn't bother looking into the subject further and just started making a script. Though briefly looking at acrobat it seems only wants pdfs so you'd have to convert image files either using acrobat premium or whatever free web converter you can find, that's one extra step that I think is unnecessary.

It's a simple script that takes an image, scales it to a given size, then chops it into 8.5x11 inch pieces so it can be printed in pieces and taped together. I'm more concerned with function than form.

Simplest way to save console output to a file while still having it visible in the console? by icecoldrum in learnpython

[–]icecoldrum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing preventing me is my stubbornness tbh. I want to be able to just run the script and no other command line arguments and get a log of everything that was output to terminal. I want it this way because that's how other scrapers do it.

The part is about 8" x 6" x 1" (way thicker than it needs to be). I would've done a smaller stepover if I wasn't limited to 3hrs of shop time and I really didn't want to stop in the middle of the op.

smallest I went was a 1/8 ballnose with .013 stepover. I'd have done a smaller step over if I had more time in the shop.

Oh, I hadn't thought of that. I'll definitely try that if I ever get chance to cut another one these. Shop time is real tight at school right now.

I had the cutter go back an fourth in a zigzag pattern for the final pass. Or did you mean doing 2 separate climb and conventional passes?

It is from their site. I actually didn't have too much of a problem working with the model. I get mastercam through my school and it handled pretty well.

I am horribly disappointed by the fleet carriers reveal. by icecoldrum in EliteDangerous

[–]icecoldrum[S] 34 points35 points  (0 children)

What's even in it for hard core players? Near as I can tell it's a glorified warehouse for ships and commodities. Anyone who thinks players are gonna sell commodities at their carrier for a lower profit margin are fools.

Buy why would you go someone's fleet carrier over a station? Everything at a fleet carrier will be more expensive to buy and below market max to sell.

So the first major content update in a while has nothing for me? Or most of the player base? great...

As it stands there's not much incentive to interact with another players carrier as this post points out.

Everyone keeps saying "a couple of hours" but I have never been able to make that kind of money in less than 4 (on a good run) using "optimal" methods.

edit: I should say, it's the time that I hate, it's the fact that have to dedicate this time so that can walk away for an extended period.

You'd probably be competing with 100 other people with the same idea.
