See they're doing you a favor by not letting you waste your time on that garbage that is the Halo show. What a farce.

You say this like it's a bad thing. If I could get away with just paying for my one hockey team, instead of the legit, 3 fucking services you have to have currently to watch an entire season, I would do it on a heartbeat.

As a new owner of a p1p. It's the single best decision I've made as far as the 3d printing hobby goes. I cannot tell you how much time and money I sunk into my old bed slinger printer and the results never even got close to this thing out of the box.
The only downside? You're gonna absolutely tear through filament because of how well and fast it prints.

this community is awesome
Fusion 360. Free for home use and it's really not as bad as some people make it out to be. A little tricky to get the hang of first but there are thousands of tutorials out there.
I had absolutely zero 3d modeling experience prior to diving into fusion360 and I am still really new to it, but I'm quite enjoying it.

DeAngelo / Carolina trade held up by CBA clause
Seems like a pretty smart provision so teams just can trade a player back and forth to dump salary off.
I'd have to imagine the league forces them to wait until July 9th.

Keyfob remote - Glow Edition
Which filament is that? I've been using hatchbox glow in the dark pla and mine definitely doesn't glow nearly as bright as that.

I made a mount for my Xbox to hide it behind my free standing TV.
Reply in thread
It's funny cause I always kinda thought that was a bit of hyperbole regarding uv exposure.
Made a bracket to fix a broken mount for our back seat cam in our car. Printed in pla just to test the dimensions. It worked so I left it in the car. Didn't make it a single day. Completely warped.
Reprinted in petg and it's been going strong for 2 weeks now.

Old 3D printers
I am officially retiring my Wanhao i3 Duplicator v2 on Friday when my BambuLabs p1p arrives.
Well... sort of. I am stripping the i3 of parts and I am going to use them to start building a Voron 0.2. Most of the parts are junk, but I should be able to re-use the motors, the SKR Mini e3, and a few other items/upgrades from the i3.

Halo CE.
Dating myself, but man I played the ever loving shit out of that game, and to this day it is still probably my favorite shooter I've ever played

10 Board Games Even Better Than Popular Video Games
Pandemic, the game where your choices don't really matter because your friends will decide your moves for you.
Also, funny they mention gloomhaven, because the gloomhaven videogame is much more fun to play than the boardgame just due to the setup time you save.

What to buy?

Yea, the prusa Mk4 is a great option for you, but honestly even an mk3s kit might be worth looking into. Save a bit of money and you can always buy the upgrade kit to the mk4 later down the line of you deem it necessary.
If you want a printer working straight out of the box and don't care about it being closed source, I cannot recommend the p1p enough. it has been night and day change from my last printer. literally just set it and forget it.
I would definitely steer clear of the ender 3s or other i3 style clones. You spend 95% of your time trying to tune and fix your printer instead of actually using it.
Also, since you don't care about printing anything other than pla, you shouldn't need an enclosure. with any of the mk3s, mk4, p1p, or x1c you are going to be able to print pla and petg perfectly fine with minimal tweaking.

What is the last movie you watched and how was it?
Reply in thread
Agreed. I've only gone to the movies twice in the last 2-3 years and I am soo very glad I managed to drag the wife out for spiderman.
It was fantastic. Recency bias completely but I really do think it's better than the first.

VPN Recommendations?
Been using PIA for years. Never had any issues. As others have said I've bought bulk subscriptions and you can get insanely low prices for it. I have it set up on multiple devices. Mobile app also works good as it has a built in DNS level as blocker.
Port forwarding works super well. They have clients for a ton of Linux flavors but you can always just use the ovpn files.
All in all, despise getting bought out by a pretty shady company I haven't found enough of a reason to switch off.

The bambulabs p1p. It just dropped in price to $599 USD. Not sure what that exchange rate is.
It is an absolutely freaking fantastic printer. I have been kicking myself for days now for not buying this thing sooner.
It sucks that it's not open source, but if you want a no fuss printer that just works, the p1p is hands down the best available on the market at that price point.

My second printer arrived a month ago, and im using that to convert my first printer into a voron 0.2. so that only still counts as 2 right?
