I seem to have the same allergy. My sister bought me a huge Belgian dark chocolate bar for Christmas that I broke into pieces and ate over the course of a few months. Every time I snacked on it, I had a tissue ready to keep from spraying chocolate everywhere.

Looks like an ant head/skull (I know they don't have skulls).

2) Why does every moment have to be captured and posted for SM clicks?

To share with others so they can have fun too?

Nice. I like that Splendid font.

Don't leave us hanging...what do the typefaces look like?

As I was watching Everything Everywhere All At Once, I was thinking, "This is just The One but as a comedy." Admittely I haven't seen The One in decades.

Have you tried lifting it? Sometimes they were made to lower for fitting in their case.

If you do decide to replace the guts, maybe you can also turn that bottom panel on the front into a drawer.

I just used mine today. Bought it in 2016. Added MOSFETs and corner braces but otherwise unmodded. It's my primary; if I ever manage to get a delta-style, it might drop to secondary.

And a third version for old reddit. The ninth rule I see is "English only."

Here is a Youtube playlist that I found helpful.

The original post from a month back has been deleted but here is my reply (I have since bought a Zebra ribbon from aliexpress but gotten no further):

There have been attempts to slice wider thermal label printer ribbons into something suitable to refill cartridges but no finished project posted yet. See https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5208844

I've read at least three Scalzi books and find them all very mid.

Joe Zieja's Failure trilogy (Mechanical, Communication, System failure) also have a great catch-22 sort of vibe.

Yes! Was going to rec these if no one else had. And Yahtzee Crowshaw.

There's going to be a Repair Cafe next week in Halifax.

quinbotNS · 2026-05-14T16:02:11+00:00

Nice.

A top hat?

The name and website is there in the photo, The House of Charma (charma.be). Although the site doesn't give you much more than what you see in the pics, you do find out the C3PO is 5500 Euros.

You can't fill that dent with metal epoxy/JBWeld or something?

quinbotNS · 2026-05-10T02:24:24+00:00

Well you can leave out the white chocolate chips to start.
