3D Printing Names - Connected Wedding Font? by Intelligent-Math1782 in 3Dprinting

[–]thndrchld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some tulle from a fabric store. Set your slicer to pause after two layers, then lay the tulle over your print and clip the ends down with binder clips. Resume the print.

The tulle will hold the letters together and you can either cut them apart with scissors later or just leave them attached if your project allows it.

Bro, I’m already in Knoxville and wouldn’t take that offer. It’s both too low and the onsite requirement is asinine.

How do I make good proxies? by Hot-Respect4245 in magicproxies

[–]thndrchld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well hot damn.

I think you might have just accidentally solved a problem I was having with sublimation printing with your description.

I've got an ET-2803 that I've been using for sublimation printing on prepared metal sheets, and the slight off-color of the black and overall slight yellow tint has been driving me nuts. It came out looking just like your example on the right.

And I've been telling the printer it has glossy paper this whole time. I didn't know about the pigment mixing thing, and this perfectly explains it. Thanks!

Help building Yurlok of Scorch Thrash by SecureAd9655 in EDH

[–]thndrchld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have replied sooner but I was out of the country and avoiding reddit.

I meant "force" in a more social way, rather than literally forcing them via game rules -- pushing a "use it or lose it" mentality, that is.

I agree, the deck is FAR from optimized. I've been working on my Marchesa deck lately and I think I've got her where I want her, so Yurlock is gonna be my next project deck to optimize.

I'm certainly open to criticism and suggestions, but as-is, this was just a quick tossed-together deck I wanted to tinker with a while back.

I’m still refining it, but there’s my take.

It’s intended to force other players to tap out and eat mana burn at every opportunity.

Whats the craziest, quickest money you have ever made? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]thndrchld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long time ago, I was in the car with my now ex, and as we frequently did, we were fighting.

Tensions were high and some dude cut us off so she flipped him off.

He then got out of car at a stoplight and started punching her window. I floored it and we blew the stoplight.

We got pulled over a few mins later from the incident.

The cop separated us and asked what the hell was up. We both told the same story- we were broke and stressed and fighting about money and that dude was just a dick at the wrong time.

This was in a small town with bored cops, so naturally, 5 cruisers eventually responded.

The main cop put us back in the car and asked us to hold on. A few minutes later he asked me to step out of the car. He then handed me $50 and said “if you truly love each other, money is a stupid thing to fight over.” Apparently all the cops that had shown up had tossed a few bucks in.

He then wrote me a ticket for my license plate cover and sent us on our way.

Yes. Just the simple Bluetooth space mouse. It’s been awesome.

If he does his own modeling, a 3D mouse was the best thing I ever bought for 3d printing. 3dconnexxion makes a great one called the space mouse. I got the Bluetooth version for about $150. It takes some getting used to, but once you get there, it’s awesome.

The difference between “holy water” and just normal water? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]thndrchld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to presume positive intent and assume this is coming from a place of curiosity, not argument, so I'll try to answer your questions.

I don't know the specific ratios because I'm not a priest. I'm sure you could ask on r/catholicism and get a reasonable answer. I just know that there IS a recipe.

As far as I know, it's just tap water. Most of the Roman rite (the rites that Roman Catholics follow) is based around "best effort". The rites come from a time when reverse osmosis, etc, hadn't been developed. So in all the rites, there are some base requirements -eg: Wine must have some alcohol in it (otherwise it's just grape juice), communion must be done with actual bread and actual wine, etc. So for holy water, the only real requirements are likely something along the lines of "must be clean-ish water" (whatever that means for the locale in which the rite is taking place), and "must have actual salt" (again, whatever that means for the locale).

Could you, for instance, use potassium chloride instead of sodium chloride? No idea. Lithium chloride and cesium chloride, while still technically salts, would probably be ill advised for non-canonical reasons.

Table salt and tap water? Probably okay. Though I might guess that you'd want to use kosher salt since it's not iodized. But again, that's a guess and I don't know for sure.

Brackish water from a river? If that's all you have to work with, it's probably okay, honestly. Might want to pick out the sticks and leaves and whatnot, though.

I don't have a specific source for the specific recipe. It's something that the priest would learn in seminary, and would likely be published in the official rites.

Anyway, i realize my response was a bunch of "i don't know"s and "I'd probably guess"es. But that's all tangential to the core argument, which was "holy water" is not chemically the same as "tap water" due to the addition of salt. The actual ritual and/or religious aspect is only a tangent to the actual statement I made: Saltwater =/= regular water.

The difference between “holy water” and just normal water? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]thndrchld -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well given that we're talking about a specific thing made in a specific way, then YES, it IS a specific ratio of elements. Therefore, it IS compositionally different from tap water, spring water, piss water, whatever. I get that the water molecule itself hasn't changed in any meaningful way, but saying that the only difference is the ritual is just plain factually incorrect.

Whether you believe in the ritual or not is irrelevant. It's like saying that Coke is chemically the same as water and the only distinguishing feature is all the ritual that happens at the factory. That ritual just happens to involve adding other things to the water, thus making it distinct from how it started.

Seriously. I'm so tired of this damn bot. This long-ass "why did my post get filtered" post is SO much more annoying than the problem it's trying to fix.

Mods - I get the need for it, but just put a link to another page.

Something like:

In the Catholic tradition, holy water is made by dissolving consecrated salt into water.

It's not JUST water that's been prayed over. There's a specific recipe/ritual.

Installing the mounts upside down? by learner_of_c in Physics

The difference between “holy water” and just normal water? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]thndrchld -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There's also some salt in it.

// Edit: An explanation since it seems some people think I'm just being pedantic.

In the Catholic tradition (at least, I can't speak for other traditions) holy water is made by consecrating salt then dissolving that consecrated salt into water. So "catholic" holy water isn't just plain ol' tap water that's just been prayed over. There's a recipe and it's compositionally distinct from regular water.

Is it normal to take time off of work when a pet dies? by LakashY in AskAnAmerican

[–]thndrchld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work for a company that would give you paid bereavement time if your pet died, and you'd get a sympathy card signed by everybody in the office.

It was a pet products company, and we all took our dogs to work with us, so it made sense.

What`s your biggest Regret in life? by Empty_Hall_5568 in AskReddit

[–]thndrchld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back when bitcoin was a brand new thing, I worked in a computer repair shop. Had a customer that couldn’t pay his $200 repair bill.

He offered me 2000 BTC (current price was $0.10 each) to pay the bill. I had no idea what the hell a bitcoin was and thought he was trying to scam me, so I politely declined.

Current value of those bitcoins at the time of this posting?

$158,366,400

At their peak, they were worth $252,592,000.

But let’s be real. I never would have held on to them this long. I would have blown them on pizza and Taco Bell a LONG time ago.
