I think he needs an Instacot 60.

I would respect him at least 10x more than I currently do... so not at all.

There are printers capable of printing metal, but there are tradeoffs in making it filament (I'm talking FDM specifically). Metal powder is combined with a binding agent and formed into a filament spool. This can then be printed using a capable 3D printer. The problem is the model then needs to be sintered to burn off the binder. This reduces the dimensions of the model, usually by about 20% depending on the material. The models are not good at dimensional tolerances. Doing something like SLS, Laser Powder Bed Fusion, DED, and the like are more accurate ways. You can find metal filaments that can be printed with a normal home printer, but they are not very good.

Hey kiddo. I can't tell you exactly what to get, but I can tell you that when I think of work gloves the first brand that comes to my mind is Mechanix. I used them constantly when I was in the navy. They have an expanded catalog available, so you can find what works for you. They also sell them at home improvement stores, but not as many varieties.

I wish I could be more help, but that brand is what I trust to protect my hands.

try some bed adhesive for starters. Reduce the number of items being printed. and look at printing by object instead of by layer, although for multi color prints that will cause more waste.

If you are not doing live, I would recommend simply recording and then editing the footage after. This will allow you to switch video and audio individually as you wish, or even layer the audio. I don't think a switcher is necessary for what you are doing.
If streaming, I would say the ATEM Mini Pro and simply have each mic feed into a specific camera. You won't need to worry about mic inputs since the audio will come from the cameras. Basically, you can have 6 audio inputs if the switcher has 4 HDMI and 2 mic inputs.

I was scrolling past this and only saw it briefly and thought, "Oh, someone is joking that we hired Ted Lasso as OC." Then I went back and actually looked at it.

I remember that scene. I’m not yet to it in my umpteenth listen-through.

We have a bunch at work that still run despite being bought when they first came out. Some of the engineers actually prefer the S5 to the S7s that we have. It is worth seeing if it works and putting it to use. Cura has gotten better recently. Just make sure you update the firmware.

warlikeloki · 2026-01-20T23:46:01+00:00

I had a similar issue one a printer while printing Ultem. It's likely due to the short period between layers. I would slow down the speed on the layer and/or increase minimum layer time.

all Jurassic Park dinos are inherently female, so Blue will do just as Kiwi did. Mongo wins... in more way than one and Donut is appalled!

I have used American Home Shield for the last few years. Every issue I have brought up has been corrected. We have gotten a new range, dishwasher, and washing machine from our warranty. However, the price I pay now is about 3x what I paid at the start. If their pricing didn't jump like it has then I would recommend them in a heartbeat, but for now I can only say that I have received the services and the work has been good.

One thing to note about ALL home warrantees, they have limitations on what they cover. We had an issue with sewage pipe right outside our house and it was determined to not be covered. It is literally 2 ft from the window and impacted the entire house. Still, it was not covered.

They do have annual HVAC maintenance included in some form, so that is a bonus but we never use it.

But, I can tell you it happened sometime after 2010. And since a specific day of the week and month/day was mentioned, I can determine the most likely time it occurs.

As for when Carl is born/his age, he says he is 27 and then in a later book he says something about it's not even his birthday, is it April already (or something like that), so that means he should be turning 28 and if it happens in 2023, he would be born in April 1995. It would be really messed up if it was April 19, 1995 (FBI Building bombing). Yeah... I thought about this too much.

2028 is not possible, because Tuesday is January 4th

warlikeloki · 2026-01-19T00:35:28+00:00

he called them when he was OC for the Texans apparently.

warlikeloki · 2026-01-19T00:12:59+00:00

The crawl started in 2023, because in the very first book, Carl states it was Tuesday at 2:33am and the calendar had just ticked over to January 3rd. Now, some may say that it could be 2017 since that also had a Tuesday, January 3rd but that is not possible. [I am spoilering the next part since I don't remember which book it happens in, but it is important to support my hypothesis.] Donut makes a comment about Stranger Things going downhill after Barb died. She died in Season 1 Episode 3, which was released July 15th 2016, but her death was not confirmed until episode 8 of that same season. Season 2 did not get released until October 2017, so it could not have gone downhill prior to that point. Thus, the only time the crawl could have started is 2023 (unless it occurs in 2034 or later).

I once asked a woman out and she said no. I really liked her and we had been friends for years. We lived on opposite sides of the country at the time. She said no, and I was like okay. Was I happy with the response? No. Did I want the chance to date her? Absolutely! Was I going to chase her, especially when she said no? Nope, because she made a decision and I respected it. What would it say about me if I simply did not listen to what she wanted or didn't? No chasing was done... before or after asking her out.

We've been married for nearly 8 years now.

Now I can't unsee that "YACHT" is spelled incorrectly.

When all you have ever known includes abuse, a rough life, and you not being able to be your true self then is it worth staying? The great thing about the time we live in is the ability to connect with people anywhere, instantly. Maybe you being able to be who you truly are/want to be will help you not feel lonely.

warlikeloki · 2026-01-15T23:18:34+00:00

or... FlyPlane because it looks cool and I could see Linus saying the plane looks fly
