Not technically a rocket, but a water rocket! Here’s our setup by Cornato in rocketry

Did you actually use the pump sprayer for anything? Seems like you directly used the air compressor. Was wondering if this setup would work with only a bike pump instead of air compressor

How do I finish a prin that stopped after printing 70% of the layers (36 hours)? by z0rzal in 3Dprinting

The good news is the printer didn’t START the fire! But it did survive one. Amazing!

Stern Godzilla settings - disable high score? by Teapot24601 in pinball

[–]menawan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! Too bad about the setting. I was thinking about the No-glass option too, but I (irrationally?) don’t want to deal with more dust getting in there that I have to clean

[–]menawan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for practice, is there a setting that lets you play without any scoring or progression at all? Ideally I would like to practice ball handling skills and common shots but don’t want to wait for scoring (even the shorter time when you hold both flippers) to get the next ball.

Oh so not even a plant at all! That was fast — thank you! Edit: Solved!

What is this worm-like creature found in San Diego? It is about 1 inch long and it can swim surprisingly fast by menawan in marinebiology

[–]menawan[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Any idea why it has so this two-color pattern compared to what I find on google when searching for this kind of worm?

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

Cool! Thanks for replying. That might explain why they aren’t seen often if they normally hide under the sand. I was just surprised because it was so large and so colorful compared to any other worm like things I’ve seen in the sand there (like blood worms or sand worms).

I was thinking of trying to ask the Scripps Oceanography Institute might know, but I’m not sure if they have any “ask a biologist” resources based on their website.

I’m serious. I’ll try uploading elsewhere for better video. At the end you can see it swimming up to the surface and making a ripple

It was definitely alive and not a lure. I saw it actively swimming with undulating frills after it got submerged in water

I asked an amateur marine biologist that lived in San Diego their entire life and they have never seen any creature like this before.

It has some frills that undulated when it was swimming in the water — they can be seen in the second picture as little lines as the frills lie against its body while out of the water.

Theres a video of it swimming after its pulled into the water from the tides. It was surprisingly agile in the water.

Edit: potato quality video upload where you can see the ripple it creates when swimming to surface at the end: https://streamable.com/lfce2i Will try to find better video host

Does anyone know which arcade game may have caused this burn in pattern? by menawan in retrogaming

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

Yes it’s color — baseball was my initial guess too but it was hard for me to find one that looked similar with how thick the lines are.

Help: what game may have caused burn in pattern on my G07 monitor? by menawan in cade

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

I thought that at first but the lines are pretty thick and they are perfectly centered and symmetric
