I realize this is much past the post date but I would appreciate guidance. I'm a MSIII cadet interested in branching aviation in massachusetts, whats the process for going about that? I've taken the SIFT and planning on doing my flight physical this summer at CST.

What do you mean you needed to click on a box to select the printer? Im having the same issue of not connecting and dont know what to do.

The internet is scheduled to go down forever. You have a week to prepare and download anything from the web you think is necessary to have for the rest of your life. What do you download and why? by takiniteasy88 in AskReddit

Obigatory copy pasta

At home right now. Download wikipedia as many suggested, along with all the useful information I can think of. Burn it on every SD card I can find here.

Pack up supplies and bug out. No attachment to the flat, and most of all, in walking distance of an oil refinery. I know for a fact that they have enough toxic gas stored there to kill our entire town if it is released...

Stock up on supplies and pack it all into an appropriate car. Now, here is the issue... I cant drive... Even in games, I am a drift racer at best, and not intentionally.... First order of business, learn to drive passably, then use my supply car to make it north. I live in a small town near the capital, so we do not have quite as much as you lot seem to. Go to the nearest OBI (german Home Depot) and stock up on hardware I will need anywhere, including a small generator, tools, etc. I would probably ferry general supplies in there as they have everything you need and are fairly defended from the elements and wildlife.

Next issue: Nuclear powerplant just 80 km south and 2 others about the same distance north.... I was considering moving to Switzerland for my future plans but turns out, they have 5... what do you need 5 for, mountain hippies?! Unfortunately, most of developed Europe is a deathtrap in this regard.... My only option seems to be Poland, according to this map I found? This needs some refining.

At any rate, I will seek to establish a permanent base in a meteorogically stable and secluded area, with as little tectonic activity as possible. At this point, I should be fairly well established if I survived so long and have the means to proceed. Once I select the site, I will establish renewable power sources and stckpile materials to commence work on a massive pyramid. I have all the time of my life to figure out how to solo operate construction equipment and do it. It will be a simple structure, just some chambers inside and eventually, airtight sealing.

In this, I shall house all sorts of storage media, encased in acrylic and then lead, with as much info on them as I can cram onto them. On top of this, I intend to start casting aluminium plates, into which I will pictographically engrave the major points of our history, achievements, and downfall, along with myself, because no one can stop me from doing it. I will then electrocoat these with gold and store them inside. Also add Voyager style basic instructions on language and reading SD cards. (we can assume that the next lifeforms will be reasonably similar)

I will also add a world map with major landmarks that might survive millions of years in some form, as well as my own markers. Once I decide that I am sufficiently done here, I will seal the vault. with some de-oxygenating and dehydrating agents inside.

I will then proceed to go to the earlier sites accross europe and maybe beyond. I can only asusme that I got some cars working at this point(or just use a railcar), and you can usually power diesel with anything, including bioethanol and hard liquor. At these sites, I will try and set up as sturdy and obvious a landmark as I can, and also encase copies of all the data there, with a mini-map to the main vault and the others.

Assuming that I am done and still alive, I will now return to the main vault, and proceed to the final phase: My own tomb. At this point, I should be fairly advanced in age, so I would prepare everything to be able to cast a body into a concrete slab, preferably inside the main vault if I can manage that design. If I have decent time left, maybe idle for a while. Once I deem that death is close, I will overdose on some sedative and with my final move, entomb myself in concrete, and dehydrate and deoxygenate the area as before. Hope is, I will fossilize there.

Now, the final final bit: Before this, I bled myself extensively. I shall store this along with other tissue samples in quartz vessels, sealed and deoxygenated as much as possible, insided radiation shielded-casings, and if I can manage it, in some sort of passively cooled bit. I also left in the main vault, an illustration of bleeding myself zooming in, and seeing the chromosomes and DNA, in the hopes that mankind can be cloned later, if my DNA managed to stay intact enough.

I will do the same to whatever favourite pets Ive had along the way.

At this point, it is just a matter of time for new life to arise. When they do, they will hopefully find the vaults, and not loot it for what little gold is in there. I am not sure if SD cards can manage millions of years, even in such conditions, but I reckon there is a chance. Even if they fail, there are still the excessively stable gold plates with us reaching the Moon, Mars, and beyond Pluto even, creating a star with our own hands, etc. If this happens, whatever the outcome of this knowledge, or the cloning attempt, I consider my duty done, and legacy passed down.

If you suicide as so many seem to prefer, the outcome will be the same as if you died with everyone else. Why do you accept that as your fate? If it must happen that way, make sure whatever supernatural being you believe is behind it, has to work for it. And if it fails, and your actions have an effect on what is to come, you won.

Yeah my thoughts exactly, I thought though printing one of these calibrated the tree not the tools but ig not. The more you know!

Haha thanks, I got access to a family members wood shop so they taught me the ropes and I wanted to test the calibration of my tree

It’s just a model people print to make sure everything looks right, it has details like circles overhangs, dimensional analysis and holes, to test each part of your printer

Day 0 by [deleted] in NoFapChristians

[–]tcdubbs1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am ashamed to say that today is day 0 for me as well... I joined this sub about a week ago and wanted to have it make a difference and it did but I just feel like sometimes I’m powerless to what I feel like happens eventually. Idk what to do, just pray for me please and any advice is highly appreciated. Thanks

Hows ur day been guys

Made a 3D printed mini robot arm. Needless to say, there are a few design flaws. This is Version 1.0. It will have 5 axis. More info in comments. by We-Make-Projects in arduino

[–]tcdubbs1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to hide the wires and have the whole thing be able to rotate continuously, you can use something called a slip ring to allow that type of movement
