Trump is still an anomaly. It’s been bad, but this is something else entirely. He is simultaneously the dumbest, most evil, and most corrupt President, and it’s not even close.

He commits new acts worse than Watergate multiple times a week.

SV08 Max - the blob was my fault for not watching the first layer.

The US has a gun violence problem, but that’s mostly due to the fact that the US has a general violence problem. If guns were the while problem, then we wouldn’t also have more stabbings than most developed countries.

Always use a glue stick with TPU. It’s used as a release agent, not an adhesive.

Not knowing this, I once printed TPU directlt on my smooth plate and absolutely destroyed it getting the print off.

I have the SV08 Max, and I’m mostly-happy with it. I’m gonna focus on what I don’t like about it since I’m a person on the internet and that’s what we do:

1. They really could’ve provided more profiles with it. Especially for nozzle sizes that aren’t 0.4 since they sell nozzles for it ranging from 0.2 through 1.0
2. They don’t seem to be interested in making a smooth plate, which is annoying.
3. It is a huge PITA to load filament. The automatic feeder stops pushing filament through any time the end of the filament hits a curve in the bowden tube. I wish you could just disable the fucking thing long enough to push new filament to the extruder by hand instead of sitting there for 5 minutes constantly pressing the feed button that moves the filament 1 femtometer at a time.
4. It is really, really loud. Like louder than my 3 other printers and my laser (with exhaust) combined. And I have the enclosed version.
5. The included spool holder should have been designed for 3 or 5kg spools. The machine is designed for giant prints, so should he able to handle large spools by default. But that’s fixed easily enough with a print.
6. The intake and exhaust fans are too close to each other on the enclosure so don’t actually lead to proper air circulation, so the doors have to be left open if you’re printing low-temp filaments like PLA and PETG.

I’m mostly concerned because Mel Brooks hasn’t made a good film since Spaceballs.

I know a lot of people love Men in Tights, but it was just a bunch of reused jokes from earlier films. Even the title song was just “Jews in Space” from the epilogue of “History of the World Part I.”

Astrobot, Horizon, God of War, Ratchet and Clank, etc.

Some of the stuff I like from Sony (Last of US, Spider-man, Returnal) gets ported to PC eventually, but Sony has announced they’re cutting back on that.

Have you ever tried scanning a book? It’s a huge PITA.

They just cut the binding off so they can be run through a document feeder.

When I was 22, I could get blackout drunk and be fully functional by noon the next day. The hangover was almost like a handy alarm clock.

Now if I get drunk I feel like shit for like 3 days.

Remember when Al Fra ken had to resign for giving too much tongue on a kiss and for screwing up his hover hands when posing for photos?

Remember when Howard Dean’s career was ended over making a weird screech in a victory speech?

There’s some stuff I’d love to experience on the PS5.

But I will not be spending nearly a thousand dollars for a set top box with limited functionality they can effectively disable when I’m no longer making them enough money.

And with SteamOS getting better and better, the convenience of a console over a PC is becoming less of a thing.

Honestly, once SteamOS has dedicated apps for things like Hulu and Netflix, I think we can really change things. Right now my parents have an Xbox where my Dad can play an occasional game, but the interface is simple enough for my Mom to open her streaming apps. Once SteamOS gets that simple, I’ll be switching them over.

My Dad never wanted any of the animals.

I have pictures of him with 4 animals on his lap at once.

The real joke for the shutterbugs was the 60mm lens on the micro four-thirds camera.

It’s for macro photography. Sample (safe) picture from the lens using the end of a ballpoint pen:

Canadian men are terrible at taking pictures of their dicks

It really is rude to compose shots so poorly.

It’s like they’ve never bothered to learn to crank that F-stop while increasing the exposure to get that shallow depth of field. It gives an illusion of depth.

I like to use a 60mm prime lens on an MFT to give it a crop-factor equivalent of 120mm.

And go with a snooted strobe to get that shadow detail. Ring flashes are lazy and have no character.

How is Trump not a Hitler-level threat? He’s upended the world order, started multiple wars of choice, assassinated heads of state, called for the prosecution of his political enemies, is operating Concentration camps, attacked the judiciary, demanded persobal loyalty oaths from public servants, caused millions of deaths, and more.

His name may not be named Hitler, but that’s about it.

King of the Hill is a show that understands Texas culture in a way that really requires you to spend time in Texas to understand. It’s the little details.

And spending time in the Dallas Area, specifically, it’s eerie. The culture, the architecture, the personalities. It’s amazing satire.

I think Hades/Hades did it great. Brutally difficult at first, but with an optional mode to make it easier each time you die, and full runs taking about 30 minutes.

And making failure a part of the story that allows you to maintain progression despite dying is also neat.

The only thing I’d really like to see changed is making an optional twist on God Mode where every time you lose it gets easier, but every time you win it gets harder.

I don’t use it, but I get why it’s important.
