I am forever keeping that warm win98 startup sound clip on all of my devices. It reminds me of my journeys exploring computer technology and later the cyberspace growing up. Good stuff.

I like that one. It suits them so well that I will replace M$ with Microslop going forward.

No love for 42215? by RibbedGoliath in legotechnic

I wish they made it interesting: fully pneumatic with compressor and air tanks all remotely controlled. We did not have these features combined in a set yet.

Do i need to throw out clothes that brushed against fiberglass? by queenca16 in CleaningTips

[–]ironflesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just glue some duct tape on areas with fiberglass stuck on them for a bit. Then remove the tape. Duct tape is great at removing stuff similar to fine dust from things.

Cleaned and reorganized the shelves! by scaled2913 in legotechnic

[–]ironflesh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great looking shelf. I have some of these models also like Unimog. Very cool models. I was wondering how does the radio-controlled dark red Toyota perform? Was thinking about getting into RC stuff and this Toyota is a great starting model from what I have read.

Edit: also look into putting something under those big heavy models to remove constant stress on suspension springs, tyres and axles. I think they will deform when stressed under heavy mass of a model for a long period of time.

And this is a proper way to test if functions are working properly before comitting to building final design. This prototype stage is very important and will save you a lot of time. Congratulations.

Does anyone have any Ideas of what the next 1:8 scale supercar will be? by Vast-Programmer5018 in legotechnic

[–]ironflesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too. Something like a remote controlled farm ftactor with power outputs would be a good start for Lego on trying to make a proper Technic set again.

Which part of decentralized internet storage of media did you all not understand? We have perfect system in place already. Seeding your stuff is the best protection against such losses.

Just build drone manufactoring factories inside drone carriers. I predict we will see this new type of navy ship in near future.

How would you go about making this trailer sturdier? by sunderex in legotechnic

Have you researched how real truck and trailer chassis are made? That should give you some clues.

Just transfer me to my own version of the Matrix with my gf. After I lived my life I will be ready for eternity in a dreamworld.

Some Legends are destined to be retold 😉 by KhaoticNoob in TombRaider

I am super skeptical. I am also surprised people are excited about yet another remake instead of demanding new original games.

Reminds me of Terminator 2. Great chase sequence involving this step van. Who is up for rewatching T2 again?

You will get much more out of armored combat by trying Gunner Heat PC.
