  • About 15 years ago I looked at 3d printers for an engineering team. Between $20,000 and $50,000 range. The best option was a powder based system. Parts were fragile, print time was slow, clean up was a pain.

    One of our customers was using an SLA system...parts were fragile, print time was slow...clean up was a pain.

    Now I have a 3d filament printer in my shop that cost me less than $1,000, and doesn't have any of those issues. Of course it's not mounted on a robotic arm.

  • What the fuck is the Irish Star, and why doesn't it report if she actually said it or not?

  • If you throw billions of dollars at a problem, you will always get the most expensive solution.

  • Once I up or down-vote a post, I never see it again, unless someone responds to something I wrote. If there's something I want to check later, I have to Save it.

    If I respond to a post or comment, and then that gets edited, I'm pretty sure I don't get notified. And since I've already up-voted it, I'll never see it again (unless I Save it and remember to check it later).

    If a post is more than a day old, and the info you're editing is important, make a new post. Reference the first post if necessary.

  • I have municipal fiber, it's great. Cheaper than Charter and 5x the speed.

  • All of these pictures show clothing on the Tiny Anime Girl, and that doesn't seem like accurate journalism to me.

  • I add to make a password last fall that had the requirement "numerals or special characters". A password with both numerals and special characters wouldn't work.

  • One fall, as the weather cooled, I started getting mice. I trapped 2 or 3 a week for about a month, it was really annoying.

    Went to the shelter, came home with a cat.

    Now the house is free of mice. I usually get one or two every fall, but this year I didn't get any. The cat is a better mouse repellent than anything I've ever seen.

  • I like Waterworld, and I like The Postman.

  • Am I the only one that thinks this would be funnier if it were the doll saying "one ticket please"?

  • "Only limited by the speed of light..."

  • Gotta use your finger, Fred.

  • These are the trucks that carry equipment for restoring power after storms. They can go all over the country if needed. Some of these trucks traveled to Florida after the hurricane, from here in Michigan. The crew gets somewhere, does what needs to be done, and then on to the next stop.

    And they're drinking a lot of water.

  • Utility trucks often have a hose and a funnel in the back, running through a hole in the floor underneath the truck.

  • Where there any teens on Twitter? Last I was there it was full of angry middle-age men.

  • Tamponade is what they drink in hell on hot days.

  • Was that with Willem Dafoe?

  • I'm deep in Trump country. I wouldn't even feel safe putting a Republicans Against Trump sign outside my house.

  • If they can outlaw a specific store from selling something, they can outlaw any store from selling anything. This isn't just about sex toys, it's a test to see what they can get away with.
