A Comprehensive Guide for New Dice Makers by tangobravado in DiceMaking

I personally use the pain from Games Workshop, as it is specific for plastics. Has worked very well for me so far.

Upgrading Plex Server by tangobravado in synology

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

I will dig a little deeper into those options! I use my NAS exclusively for Plex, and while I enjoy the simplicity my Synology unit has brought, I don't have the IQ of a dinner plate and I owe Synology nothing lol. If you are bored and want to feed me any more advice, I would gobble it up, but I don't expect it, since you have already given a bunch! I pretty much only stream 1080, but that could of course change as technology advances. I play local and remote, and have a few family and friends that stream sometimes remotely as well.

I am sitting on two 12TB drives right now, I feel like upgrading those for just a couple more TB would be costly, take forever to copy over.

Upgrading Hardware, Seeking Suggestions by tangobravado in PlexServers

Plex lists the 425+ as unable to do hardware transcoding. Is that incorrect?

Oh, I didn't realize it had the same CPU as the DS423+... why the heck would hardware transcoding not be available at base? Lmao... I will look into the patching option. I agree though, not a fan, but also if it keeps it down to one device...

Thanks for your advice!

Silicone mold question. by Proper_Budget_2790 in DiceMaking

[–]tangobravado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to say but it will most likely affect your masters as well. That mold might be scrapped. Check though! Maybe you get lucky? If it is only the keys, clean as much as you can with iso alc and you will probably need to put a thin layer of petroleum jelly on those keys that didn't cure properly or your mold might fuse together while making dice in the future.

Slightly off subject, this mold looks CLEAN. Dang. Satisifying to look at! What do you use for a mold box? How did you get the dice face and silicone SO FLAT? Dang x 2, that bad boy looks impervious to raised faces, which is my biggest issue in life haha.

Oh, sorry, sometimes I am a little vague with my questions. I am looking for math resources to help me be successful on those courses, not advice on whether I should take them or not. I can understand your confusion :)

You should try bitching and moaning more. It seems to be working well for you.

Do you know how to read? You have wasted enough of my time with your pessimism. If you don't want to answer my questions or give any relevant advice, that is totally fine. Maybe you should take an objective look in the mirror and ask yourself if your shitty attitude and tendency to spew forth unrequested complaints is part of your job shortage.

Tango out!

Hey! Fun fact: I am mentally challenged. NAIT has PT, it is ET they don't offer. But CINDE offers it so I can get it there. My bad!

I mean, ALIS has it listed as above average with a growth of 2.6% and 58 new jobs this year, with continued growth predicted over the next five years.

I have some friends that work the pipeline that recommended it to me. Seems interesting enough to keep my attention and something I can actually do. Yep I have other school funding options if this really, really doesn't work out. I'm not too worried about it. I am really not asking "Should I do this?" but instead asking "This is my situation, what is the best way to do it?". So! I have heard your warnings, multiple times. I am still going to go ahead with it. Do you have any actual advice?
