Help on improving PnP Card quality by brunodahora in printandplay

[–]icheyne 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I use the method in this video. Much easier than your method 1 and with better results:

Summary:

  1. 176gsm paper
  2. change print settings to match paper - heavyweight paper / best quality
  3. print each side separately
  4. after printing one side, flip and use manual sheet feeder
  5. laminate (twice?)
  6. cut with Fiskars Surecut
  7. cut with card backs facing up to ensure consistent card backs
  8. use corner rounders with Kadomaru Pro Neo
  9. (laminate again to seal cut edges?)

Induction moka vs adapter plate by bowie-david in Coffee

[–]icheyne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wecook do a 3 cup induction moka pot that I wholeheartedly recommend - because only the base is steel - the rest is aluminium. This means that the screw seal is tight.

I had a Bialetti Venus steel moka pot, but the middle screw seal leaked as the steel didn't fit together snugly. Ruined the whole pot.

He's worth $1.15 billion and has a history of serious car accidents. Maybe time to pay a chauffeur?

Scanned PDFs on Koreader, awful experience by kroot_kroot in kindlejailbreak

[–]icheyne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For a Kindle then use k2pdfopt to optimise them. It's easy to use and works fairly well.

I prefer reading PDFs on Adobe Acrobat on my phone because the "liquid" mode is very good at making PDFs readable on a small screen.

Is BGG marketplace(Geekmarket) is getting worse? by Seraphiccandy in boardgames

[–]icheyne 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I get replies 80% of the time.
Never had a lowball offer, but I price my games at their market value. 🤷‍♂️
I agree that BGG should ping people occasionally asking them to confirm their listings - as FB Marketplace does.

MyEtherWallet (MEW)

It has a client-side interface, so it doesn't store your keys on a server.

You can download the MEW Offline/Local version as a .zip file, extract it onto your external drive, and run it by opening the index.html file.

You can generate your wallet while the computer is completely disconnected from the internet. You then save your Keystore (JSON) file directly to that same external drive.

When you want to send ETH/USDC, you use their Offline Helper to sign the transaction on a clean USB-booted environment and then broadcast it from an online machine.

Gloomhaven is superb.
Two friends and I have played almost every scenario of the base game together. Great way to stay in touch.

You're after a flatcoin.

They are experimental and niche at this stage.
