  • Op doesn't have time for interviews

  • That's a question that the C-Suite needs to answer for. But the point is, if those switches are installed -for whatever reason- they do need to work correctly. And if they do not, that's an indication of a failing management.

  • There are youtube videos from cast members wishing him a happy 80th birthday. So it's safe to say it's pretty well known now.

    As far the 24th/25th meh, close enough. It probably messed up his birthday parties as a child. Making them both 'Same as'.

  • If the installation of the circuit was done correctly in the first place, all 3 switches will turn the light on and off.

    If they do not, there is a problem and it needs to be fixed. If you don't fix the issue, you have a major underlying problem in your company. And you are not worth my time.

  • Where do you guys buy your 3D print and such at?

  • Says the person who has never contributed anything....

    I am willing to teach and have taught others. I have stood in front of a classroom of high school students and even elementary students as young 9 years old and taught them how to turn their ideas into real world things. And I did it for free. Can you say the same?

  • The realistic one. I have tried the YouTube beginners lesson almost every time Blender has a new release. I just cannot do it.

  • Yeah, as an old toolmaker, we have it pounded into us that time is money and seconds have a cost. Plus it also tends to eliminate the riff raff. If you are willing to pay for something I designed, then you are far less likely to ask for freebies, (If I had a nickle for every time). Also there is the years of learning and development of skills involved that has value.

    I used to upload free designs, but I got tired of all the clowns that wanted me to do this "little" change here or there for free, (I would release CAD files also). Or they complained about how their poorly calibrated and operated printer couldn't hit the tolerances of +/-.1mm and I was a bad person and should be shunned.

    I got tired of it all and pulled all my designs down. Now everything I design will never see that light of day. If you want it, do it yourself. I did......

  • It's OK to not rush in to learning a design program of any kind. Take your time if you want. There are millions of things to print at the click of a button.

    And when you are ready to learn something new and extra, you will know when you are ready and then you can start learning. And it will be a fun process, not a chore because 'you have to learn this.' This is a journey, not a job for you

  • I've been trying to make that damnable doughnut in Blender for 15 years. And I STILL fail at it somehow. But I can make that stupid doughnut in FreeCAD, OnShape, SolidWorks, Solid Edge, and (shudders) Fusion.

    I evidently have a mental block with Blender that doesn't exist with any CAD I've used. So, one has to use the tools that work for you.

  • That is the sad part. When I got my Prusa Mk3s kit way back during covid, it not only came with a users manual, but a hefty large assembly manual. Both books printed on glossy paper and full page color pictures with circles and arrows on them.

    I still have both books and I still use that Mk3s.

  • I think only Prusa still ships a real, honest to god printed manual anymore. Most printers come with just a pamphlet to setup and plug it in.

    Paper costs money to print and to ship.

    For that vast majority of us, playing a sport is a hobby and nothing more. And that's just fine.

  • Anything from soups to salads.

    It being winter right now, I tend to make soups and chilis. In fact, my Wife made a big slow cooker full of chili. We ate that for 2 days and froze the leftovers, (chili freezes very well). A few days before that, I made chicken soup. In addition to the onions and celery, (for god's sake don't throw out the leaves! They taste more like celery than the stalks). I added a whole bag of frozen mixed vegetables and 2 small potatoes, (peeled and cubed and an awesome source of vitamins and soluble fiber), that needed to go. And for meat, all I needed was 2 chicken thighs cut up into spoon sized pieces. Vegetable curries are awesome. Stir fries are easy, cheap, and fast. (If you don't own a wok, get you a carbon steel wok. Next to a good cast iron dutch oven, a wok is the most versatile cooking pot you can own). And don't forget root vegetables, rutabagas, parsnips, turnips, and beets. They not only can be tossed into soups, well maybe not the beets, but all of the are awesome roasted too. You can look up recipes online, but you really don't need a recipe for chicken soup. Just some basic spices and seasonings.

    I will leave you with my recipe for oatmeal bread. And for god's sake, don't buy expensive oat flour from the store instead make your own in a blender in a minute or less from dirt cheap rolled oats. You want this quick bread 'rustic'.

    Ingredients for Oatmeal Bread Recipe: 2 eggs. 150 g yogurt/5 oz. half a teaspoon of salt. 2 cups + 0.5 cups/275-280 grams of rolled oats. 9.8 oz. grind in a blender. 1 tbsp baking powder. Add any nuts and seeds to taste-- or not. Dealer's Choice

    Grease you bread pan well. I use silicone bread pans now Bake in a preheated oven at 180C/360F for 25 minutes.

    The yogurt can be either plain or a flavored yogurt. I like either yogurt with honey or vanilla myself. This make a stiff dough, so have a sturdy spoon.
