I’m a big fan of Emily the Engineer. She’s a similar chaotic energy as early Michael Reeves but less directly focused on “offensive ideas” or “things to hurt your friends”. The creativity behind both the projects and the videos is top notch.

My first move would probably be to blow my brains out

Someone else mentioned gridfinity, that was my first thought too. You can probably find modules for all of the things you listed already made and ready to print.

Once you start with gridfinity, though, you will never stop.

1. You’re having an important argument with someone and you’re resorting to Reddit for an answer

2. You think having updoots on a Reddit thread matters in a real life argument

3. You want to manipulate an already trashy and biased mediation tool by artificially inflating your position

4. You openly ask for help in doing this with seemingly zero self awareness

If this is real (and I hope to God it’s just a shitpost) it’s insanely pathetic and abusive. You should not be dating.

Re: dry. I’m convinced PLA doesn’t care about moisture. Watched a video of a guy that soaked a roll in a tub of water overnight, then printed off the roll with it still in the tub. Looked exactly the same as it did before the soak.

Mileage may vary of course but ever since then I’ve been leaving my PLA out and it’s never once given me trouble (the infused ones a little bit).

Well I always wake up where I’m meant to be. When that stops happening I’ll stop doing it.

Sorry! The name of the podcast on Spotify is simply, “reading and explaining the Silmarillion”.

Sorry, Bilbo. The name of the podcast on Spotify is simply, “reading and explaining the Silmarillion”.

There’s a podcast done by a well known Tolkien nerd in which he reads The Silmarillion and explains it along the way. I’ve been slowly making my way through it while driving to work and falling asleep.

I also loved my Wii U. It’s such a shame it wasn’t more popular. I basically used it like a switch with a box that needed to be plugged in, just took the console places and anywhere with an outlet I could plug in and play on the screen. Obviously the switch is the superior console but the Wii U was a banger.

“is anyone not from Reddit?”

“Me, I’m from Reddit”

?

… So should I stop trying to date 😩

I find that shaking my hands frustratedly while repeating the placeholder word at a higher frequency helps people understand what I’m trying to say to talk to me later

Most questions that get posted are the same question but slightly different situation. “Why does my first layer look bad”, “what is causing this weird noise”, “how do I diagnose this error”.

Your use case is interesting. I’ll remember it each time I see an update.

Oh ok, I misunderstood some details. That makes more sense.

I’ll be here in a year or two for your updates!

I remember your first post. Glad that you are still working on putting this workshop together. Excited to read about what you come up with.

If I remember correctly, you use a 3d scanner to get close-enough measurements of your workspace, and design around that? Is there any chance of us getting some pictures of your completed space once things are buttoned up, or would it be too much of a privacy concern? I’m super into confined, efficient workspaces and I’d love to see what kind of solutions you’ve come up with for your specific needs.

My imaginary friend was very tiny, and I’d imagine him cartoonishly jumping around whatever environment I was in so he could talk to me on my level. I used to hide out in the bathroom a lot, so oftentimes he’d be jumping on top of the toilet paper roll, then scampering up to the counter so we could have a proper conversation. If I was in the car, he’d sit on the edge of the window.

The best way I could describe him looking back would be like the vault boy from fallout. Not the same clothes or look, but just that cartoony style. I probably imagined him to be a little darker and with different colored hair.

In my case, I was awkward-dancing by myself while everyone else was just showing up, then I made a comment about how infrequently I ate and was asked if I was taking stimulants.

The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. Neither of these statements make it impossible for someone to regularly enjoy alcohol or cannabis without hurting people.

I saw your other comment and wondered what the games must be. What’s the other one?
