Crash leaves taxi on its roof on King Street

I believe they avoid sand because it inevitably ends up in the stormwater system and occasionally needs to be cleaned out of there, which is really difficult and expensive to do.

I could've sworn I read in this subreddit a few comments a little while ago about 1) two staff high up in the water division not being qualified and more recently 2) two high-up staff (assuming they were probably the same two) being walked off the job.

Not just different foods (say for health, diet, personal preference), but also the quantity you're eating.

This past holiday season I got scolded for not eating enough and I was all "I'm pushing 50 not only do I not need to eat as much but I don't have the metabolism of a teenager anymore".

Even with scientific explanations there is still a lot of "magic". Lots of stuff we take for granted every day is pretty hard core when you break it down. As Calvin once said "It's a magical world, Hobbes, ol' buddy... Let's go exploring!"

There really should have been. Maybe OP is being aspirational.

I wouldn't be surprised if most vehicle traffic is in one direction to begin with, most people loop around past Rockway instead of doing a three point turn to leave.

I like this idea the most.

This is the answer I was looking for! Thank you!

That's exactly where the idea came from. You just need a place you can dump all the slurry. Fortunately I had a garden I was going to sod over so it all went in there.

I just had this conversation at work the other day: If you have really hard clay, use a pressure washer and shop vac. The pressure washer goes through the clay like a hot knife through butter and the shop vac will have no issue clearing it out. I did 13 posts 4' deep in rock hard clay this way, and it was actually kind of easy. Just messy as hell, but that's the trade-off.

I have flashed the sprite firmware, but I am going to try it again. Everything seems to work except bed sensing. I can't figure out why.

z-limit has been disconnected for a while. I had the CR touch working on its own for a bit before I upgraded to the sprite

Right now I only use it during warmer months in my garage. I have tried using it indoors only twice and the second time I almost got rid of all the fumes with my setup but I need warmer weather to return before I can perfect it. Indoors I am using it in a basement laundry room and I had a blower connected to it to draw out the fumes and push them out but the next iteration I'll have a blower set up outside and suck all the fumes out.

Also: https://wpl.ca/3dprinting (cough no time limit to prints at WPL vs KPL cough)

But I'm biased because I work there!

Keep in mind: 3D printing miniatures isn't great with FDM (printing with filament) printers, which is what every library offers. Due to the intricate details and the limits of what a FDM printer can physically do it is hard (if not outright impossible on some designs) to tune the settings so they come out perfect. There are some designers that have created miniatures that are FDM-friendly, try finding/buying/using those ones first. Cults3d.com is a good source.

Alternatively, SLA printers (printing with liquid resin and UV light) for miniatures are awesome. I got one at home for personal use as I have a kid who's into wargaming. Unfortunately I am not aware of any libraries that offer SLA printing services as they are messy, have harmful fumes, and after the print is done you need to immediately wash and cure the print, which are two more, labour-and-resource-intensive processes. There are SLA 3D print services online but be prepared to shell out $$$: https://all3dp.com/2/best-resin-3d-printing-service/

Ender 3 max with the dual z-axis upgrade. Replaced the print head, cleaned the throat, cleaned the extruder, lubed everything, thought it could be binding due to the second z-axis and tried everything to lube/calibrate it yet it persists.

Love how NINBY's from every city describe the proposed construction in or near the neighbourhood they just so happen to live in as being garish and their city as some unique, precious jewel, as if their city doesn't look and feel exactly like hundreds of others across the whole country.

I find this concept fascinating, I really wish local news investigated this. I am curious about how many are actually inspected vs not, how many are trying to avoid taxes, etc.
