And she is used to apologizing for idiots so she’d be able to alot in and rebuild international relationships.

Princess Caroline. She can make deals, is passionate about her work but also her family. She would make this country function and function well and she’d never stop till it was done.

I have been worried about this for months. The moment of clarity for me came when I was looking up how to tan a hide fur off. I have done fur on and seen a dozen videos on it so I knew what I was looking at. Found this great looking site. Step by step. As I’m reading, something seems off. Maybe translation issues? The order here seems… Repeatative?

Then I look at the pictures.

First picture showed a hide being made into a drum. Ok, not exactly what I’m doing but yeah maybe similar process… Next picture is of a dudes abs, with a tan line… (Tanning the hide)

Next picture is a head table for a wedding… (Decorating)

It was surreal. And it is surreal. We are now returning to a time when we can’t access information easily. Not because it isn’t there, but because it’s crowded by misinformation and half information.

Thanks for the advice. I’ll go back and do some more tower tests, but (and again, this could be a skill/understanding issue) I don’t really understand how to get a print to change temp mid print, without using the touchscreen and staring at it waiting…

Right now I have bunch of settings saved that results in a pretty decent PLA print, but it takes ages. (Layer of .15, print speed 50-100, gyroid infill 15%. Bed 60* nozzle 210). And I tried to print a tube to put coins in and it’s 5 hours. And the threads didn’t come out great.

Overhangs get me usually, but sometime later adhesion if I dare use the ultimate presets like “course”, even if I adjust the temp.

Also I tried updating utlimaker to the latest version, rather than the one it comes with, and then was a disaster that lead me down a rabbit hole to Orca.

Which was another rabbit hole that my partner had to emotionally support me through as the equivalents of “PCLOADLETTER” would trash my prints on a whim. Usually 3/4 of the way through.

I bought this printer to print dust collector fittings and adaptors for power tools (I lead a construction team and I’m pro-safety) and I can usually get a print strong enough for the job, if not pretty.

But I’d like pretty…I’d like to be able to fine tune a print so it’s sexy and strong and also didn’t take 16 hours… Boaty takes 20 minutes and o Looks good every time I print so I just don’t get why something not as complex and the same size takes over an hour and doesn’t come out as clean.

If not bambu, what do you recommend?

Current sovol sv07 plus user and facing this wall where I can’t decide if it’s a skills/knowledge issue or a hardware limit.

I’m using Lemmy connect and I find it… Not great. It doesn’t tell me when I have responses. I mean at all. I don’t allow push notifications. But my inbox is empty so I look at “read messages” and there’s tons there that I’ve never seen.

Also when user post only a pic in their response, you can’t upvote it without carefully touching their tiny name with your fat thumb to reveal the buttons. And when you touch a longer post you are reading to scroll you often close it? And the tree system/order of responses and what is collapsed vs not and where they uncollapse to is unpredictable and at the very least, very what I expect…

I guess I should not use this one…

I redid the bathroom when COVID hit (was walking around home Depot the day before the shut down frantically buying 3 of everything so I had a chance to do this without being able to make the customary mid-project visits)

The toilet we got was not the one I wanted, it was 4 or 5 on our list of "toilets the Internet says are good " and boy howdy the Internet was wrong. This toilet wouldn’t flush piss. I’m not kidding I didn’t notice at first but a couple days into “man this toilet didn’t like to flush our shits, they must be mighty” I had a pee that was dark enough that once I flushed I read like “wtf”. 3 flushes for the water to be “clear” as I could tell.

This isn’t a 2 button eco toilet.

I ended up finding a guy online who had extended the tube inside the tank to be just shy of the rim, thus allowing the tank to fill up more and more water to be sent down with each flush. Whatever eco feature it had in sure it’s now among the worst water waster in town.

And it’s still a terrible toilet. It has some sort of extra funnel port in the front that I guess some of the water flushes through to help direct the shit and water down the pipes. But it gets dirty and is unreachable with every toilet brush I’ve tried, and not visible even if you jam your head down as close to the water as you can and look back. This means that the flush stops working and then I have to go in with disposable chop sticks and chip away and the shit fossils blindly until the port is clear again.

Yes I tried soaking with green goblin and leaving the blue duck to soak, still need to physically mine the area clear…

Ok so my father makes his own wine, at home from kits/concentrate. He makes a lot of wine and drinks a lot of wine (and gives a lot of wine away as gifts)

One day he called me, and he was so excited. Like if he wasn’t a 61 year old man I would have guessed he was going to announce his pregnancy.

“You won’t believe it! The wine place is selling bags now!!! So I can put my wine in bags and put those in boxes!!! Omg why didn’t I think of this?! Think of all the time saved with corks and recorking!”

It was a happy day for him, certainly.

Same. Then I had to hear an endless stream of whining for over a year because my other half likes the old style for reasons. It got so bad I bought them a shit one for Christmas, and now I’m faced with the stupidity of having 2, but the sadness that I’m gonna end up putting the good one in the donation bin because reasons.

I’d like that but full electric, minimum 500km in the “tank” I had an all electric vehicle and LOVED everything about it, except the range. Then eventually I needed a truck for my job (but I did cram my Kia Soul to the brim for the 3 years I had it.)

I’d buy a hybrid though, if that’s what was available.

Went looking for Reply All. I found that podcast as my “first” podcast, I’d never gotten into any before. Listened from episode one every day for weeks, and suddenly… They were announcing they were ending… I hadn’t realized they had ended…

Because they hadn’t yet. I somehow timed my listening of the whole show such that I heard the second or third last episode (where they first announced the ending) on the day it was put out… So I had to wait a week each for the last 2 episodes…

Great variety of content, despite the tagline…

Second how did this get made, listened to it on the way back from a trip this afternoon. I avoid the “Live!” ones as they are usually very poorly mixed and often the audience gets involved so you just sit and listen to badly mixed laughter for 4 minutes. Go see em live if you want that experience.

Sure would be. I still wish I knew who that dude was.

I have my fork and telehandler licence but I’m closer to management than a driver, I just want to be able to hop on the move one out of the way and not look like an idiot when I ask my guys to do something with it.

So big emergency, we have to move a couple telehandlers out of where another team had buried them and get them on a truck asap. It’s tucked so tightly in a spot with its boom up and stuff everywhere around it. I’m not very familiar with it but I crab walk it out of its hole, around a bunch of other crap and finally out onto the street. I’m now comfortable and start rolling down the road at speed towards the truck when a guy I. A pickup passes me and just points up with one hand.

Slam on brakes. Look up

There’s a line (probably internet/phone) running across the road and my forks are above them. I back up… Lower the mast and forks… And drove it to the tech and got out of there

Thank you Angel Man. I would have looked a complete fool had I knocked out internet to our own buildings, and it could have been power lines!

I know you never drive with forks up, they were just up when I got in the vehicle and the 15 minutes of Tetris they had to stay up… Then I basically forgot.

Don’t do what Donny Don’t does!

Yeah … One leads straight to the other…

Never seen Idiocracy huh?

My partner went to a convention in another city. He was caught off guard by the number of dudes in leather and fetishwear that he saw around the hotel when he first arrived but just thought the city must have a diverse and adventurous night life.

The next morning on his way out he spotted a poster, it was “The Bear Ball” weekend, some disco themed big gay guy event, and the hotel he was in was the headquarters, which explains why most of the other attendants of his conference were being housed in a different hotel.

He said he had some great people watching for the next couple days.

I am not an American, but doesn’t America separate church and state? Like as one of the base rules? I know they are constantly pushing that boundary (for the “good” religions that is) but isn’t this just a “nope, state can’t send money to that.”

It’s seems pretty straight forward… What mental gymnastics are being used to get around that pesky fundamental cornerstone of the US Constitution?

Yep I do the email thing. And yeah, I know they all share everything, but at least I make them work for it.
