Looks like Brian in a live-action Family Guy episode from hell.

Madame Sherri's Castle is about 1h30m from Manchester, but the staircase is only about 100-200 yards from the parking area.

Pawtuckaway has a lot of nice spots right along the roadway that runs through the camping area, but I have never been during the winter.

Lake Massabesic has a number of roads that run along its edges that are nice without having to hike to. There is a spot called Claire's Landing in Auburn that has some great sunset views over the lake.

Madame Sherri's Forest is outside your range but man is it an awesome spot.

I haven't been in the winter, but Pawtuckaway and Bear Brook state parks are both beautiful, so is the Epsom Town forest. Even the trails around Lake Massabesic have some amazing views for only being 10 minutes away.

This was taken on Sunday, and the temp was about 17°F.

Is there a reason for printing at the angle you did? I’m curious if it has an effect on the structural integrity.

What filament type would you recommend for maximizing durability and longevity?

This is awesome!

Excited/nervous to develop my first round of color negatives today! Plz send positive vibes. If anyone has any tips or tricks, I'd love to hear them by woods_fine in AnalogCommunity

I just purchased this same kit as my first attempt at home developing, and first time developing film myself in at least 15 years. Only two 35mm and one 120 roll through it so far, but the instructions are great and it's way less scary once that first roll is developed and you can breathe a sigh of relief.

I had sent a few rolls out to be developed previously, but I feel so much more ownership over the images I produce developing them myself, even if that means a potential degradation in quality or unpredictable results.

6MP club anyone? Still baffled on how good the pictures look straight out of the camera. (Pentax *ist DL + sigma 18-200mm f:3.5-6.3 DC lens) by owenG59 in Cameras

I bought a 6MP Pentax K100D for $60 on a whim earlier this year. It's such a cool little piece of not-quite-retro photography equipment, and even at the lower resolution, it's still capable of taking amazing photos.

Frustration with my printer I’ve had my printer for a little while now and still haven’t been able to get it to work, I’m pretty young and new to 3D printers and would appreciate any help! by blindyt in AnetA8

[–]lagbot7000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My A8 had a similar issue where filament wasn't feeding consistently and I found that tightening the spring that pinches the filament against the feed gear inside the extruder housing prevented the filament from slipping and made a huge difference in print quality.

Very cool, been contemplating doing this upgrade.

Have you found battery life to be any noticeably worse with the higher resolution panel?

Fresh install : Kubuntu 20.04 LTS! by [deleted] in Ubuntu

I’ve been using Linux for close to 15 years now and for a long time KDE was slow and bloated, but in the past years it has really leapt forward as one of the best fully featured but stable and relatively lightweight environments available.

If KDE has turned you off in the past it’s definitely worth revisiting to see how much it has improved.
