I can’t believe it’s been 100 days, why is time flying by?? I love your posts, keep them coming!
- Comment on My parents never did any extravagant trips like to Disney world or Sea world. Knowing what I know now I'm kinda grateful for that. 3 weeks ago:
We’re 7 minutes away, and we do go often just for a meal.
- Comment on My parents never did any extravagant trips like to Disney world or Sea world. Knowing what I know now I'm kinda grateful for that. 3 weeks ago:
We have season passes that give us access to all Cedar Fair parks with unlimited meals and drinks, unlimited visits all year long, and it still costs less than one trip to Disney. We often visit 7 different parks in a year, and our home park dozens of times.

- Comment on How do you store lots of spools? 1 month ago:
I actually store all of my filament (that isn’t loaded into my AMSes) in a large antique wooden steamer trunk (like a pirate chest). It’s massive, and can hold dozens and dozens of spools. Wood is breathable and absorbs moisture, but also allows it to evaporate out into the room (whereas plastic bins trap it inside). I keep a bunch of dessicant inside, and I’ve never had a problem with filament humidity. The filaments I commonly use are always loaded up in my 4 Bambu AMSes. In there, I have extra dessicant pods with reusable dessicant beads.
- Comment on [Tom Warren] The PS5 Pro still hasn’t sold out in the US or UK. Looks like the $700 price point will mean this console will be readily available this holiday 1 month ago:
Consoles are easy, and I love my PS5 for chilling and playing games, and I love my Linux PC for its power and freedom from corporate bullshit.
- Comment on Would it be weird if I took something my neighbor put out for trash? 1 month ago:
I actually love it when people take things I put by the curb. I would much rather someone get use out of it than have it end up in a landfill.
- Comment on Is this a triangle? 2 months ago:
The term you are looking for to describe such a shape is technically “spherical polygon”. Triangles are impossible in speherical geometry since the sum of the angles would always be greater than 180°.

- Comment on Bluetooth 6.0 adds centimeter-level accuracy for device tracking — upgraded version also improves device pairing 2 months ago:
The bluetooth antennas on your devices have sucked. I have no problems with my pixel 7 pro. Pairs quickly, play music from across the house, through walls and floors even. Previous phones of mine would lose connection to my bluetooth headphones if my.phone was on the wrong hip, obviously an antenna issue.
- Comment on How different would the world be if school never ended but you could leave anytime you elect to? 2 months ago:
The government would end up housing and educating most of the population, which would cost more than any country could afford.
- Comment on If you bought a 3D printer for personal use, was it worth it? 2 months ago:
Yes absolutely. I’m sure the hobby hasn’t paid for itself, but I never expected it to. It has been worth it because of the amount of happiness I have spread with personalized gifts and a feeling of satisfaction when I make a print to fix something around the house or make life a little easier or more convenient. The little toys and doo-dads are great and the kids love them too.

I’ve got llama 3.1 8b running locally in open webui. What do you mean it’s bugged with llama.cpp?
- Comment on If everyone is fired by AI, who's going to buy the products and services made by the companies if no one has money anymore? 3 months ago:
When there is a scarcity of resources a population will shrink to sustainable levels. Right now there are too many people to share the scraps left from the billionaires hoovering up all the capital. People will stop having kids, others will die homeless, and population will decrease just as happens in any population of animals experiencing scarcity.

There will always be tasks that people don’t want to do, and they will require compensation for motivation.

- Comment on GTA 5 Actor Ned Luke Calls Out 'Bulls**t' AI Chatbot That Uses His Voice 9 months ago:
Social animals like us invent ethics. It all comes down to what most people find appalling vs what most people find acceptable. A lot of that comes down to empathy. How would you feel if it was done to you?
