Nah, Sontarans are smarter than that.

It’s very real. Ruined people’s lives and even negatively impacted plants and animals nearby. He also performed an experiment on people at a con with a control group and a group being hit with infrasound to prove out the effects.

Benn Jordan has an excellent video on this where he investigated infrasound and spoke to people impacted by it. Well worth watching.

Not necessarily. If the flow is slightly too high then you’ll get inconsistent results like this. I had this happen as well and it drove me nuts until I went through Orca’s flow rate calibrations like 4 or 5 times.

God that sucks. I’m sorry you have to deal with that. They truly are racing to the bottom.

The mainboards are unfortunately the common thread with all the issues I have with their printers. My Neptune 3’S mainboard has a well documented fault that they refuse to admit to and would not replace.

The Mars 5 Ultra that MC took back had a faulty board, and the replacement board was also faulty. It was three months of arguing, pics, video, and escalations before I told MC the story and they took pity on me and returned it. Elegoos concession was to send me the smallest bottle of their cheapest resin for a printer I no longer had.

I will never recommend an Elegoo printer after the last two I had. Both broke in unique ways and I got no support for either one. It took MicroCenter going above and beyond to resolve the issue with one by doing a return well past the return period. The manager was horrified when I gave her the extremely long and exhausting story of dealing with their awful support. The other printer is just a pile of parts now.

I picked up an Anycubic Kobra S1 and its been pretty great so far, though my bar is pretty low at this point, TBH.

That being said, they do use their own version of OrcaSlicer, but it works well enough for me, and you can flash some additional firmware into the printer to open it up more.

Suspend PreCheck, GE, and ongoing FEMA aid work “due to the shutdown” instead of the wildly expensive, unnecessary, cruel, and downright weird ICE ops. Every day this administration finds new lows to sink to.

How people supported and continue to support this trash heap of humanity bungling around as an administration I will never understand.

I’m glad there are 3rd party options. Elegoo shouldn’t be rewarded for making a modular device less so just to sell more bits at once.

It’s to force people to buy the whole hotend. More revenue for them. Elegoo has been speed running a race to the bottom in the name of profit, so this isn’t surprising to me at all.

Thanks for posting this, I’d have never run into it otherwise. I tried the demo, and it’s a very chill experience. Ended up buying it. Nice puzzle and building gameplay.

Uncle Deadly. Though I’d also be fine with Animal or Gonzo.

The Sword in the Stone.

The agent, who’s assigned to another HSI office and is in Minnesota on “temporary detail for an operation,” is unfamiliar with the Twin Cities, did not know where they were going, and “was in fear that he was being abducted.”

Poor little fella. Imagine being scared that you’re being abducted.

I have two answers for this:

1. Yes. If I could try it out in a limited fashion and get a feel to see if it would add value to my learning experience without having to provide login details first, then I’d be much more willing to try it. Especially if its made clear that a login is not required to try, since so many sites have a Try It button that just leads to a sign up page.
2. If the critical information I need to make the decision to try it out is present, easily accessible, and clear then I’m going to be more willing to try it. Not as much as if option 1 was available, but more willing.

This comment may be overly blunt, but I’m also frustrated with trying to find decent language learning tools. This is just being added to the list of frustratingly opaque tools that I’ve bounced off of. I clicked into it and didn’t even make it a full minute before leaving frustrated.

I saw no way to easily find a list of supported languages. That’s the only thing I care about when I click into a site like this. The site not having a list of supported languages in either the menu or on the front page instantly fills me with distrust.

The front page tells me almost nothing. All the info there blurs into corpo speak about how great the site is without giving me real info I need to make the decision on if I should risk giving out my email to sign up. It seems the only way to find the info I need in order to decide if I should use this site in any capacity is to sign up by giving you my email address. That’s a hard pass.

Any site that hides info I need in order to decide if it’s even going to work for me makes me feel like its just trying to either scam me or spam me. As a result, it goes into my list of do not use sites.

Having seen the screenshot you posted here, I have to agree with the other feedback about why I wouldn’t just go to YouTube directly. At least there I can use SponsorBlock and sign in to save their already made playlists. I don’t see how this site adds any actual value over going to YouTube, to be honest.

What makes you say that? We have Mint and leave the country all the time. The Minternational Pass option is one of the main reasons we signed on with Mint.

Awesome, congrats!

I’m really, really happy for you that you managed to get out of here. We’re working on doing the same. Which country did you end up in, if you don’t mind my asking?

Exactly. So now we have people in a job that already has one of the highest rates of suicide, working for no pay, unable to strike under threat of federal charges, with skills that aren’t easily transferrable to another line of work despite being incredibly necessary.
