- Comment on I have a shamefully dark question for firefighters. I'm sorry but I'm just too curious to not ask... It's about the smell and how that affects life. 1 day ago:
Depends a lot on the circumstances from what I heard from my VFD friends. Apparently it’s very rare to find someone cooked but not charred by the fire and that’s the smell your describing. They all say CSF is the really bad smell that stays with you.

Tbh, if it was a burning bush, I’m not certain if it would be better or worse as that’s the only actual description beyond blinding light that we have

Just replace the battery then. Most phone shops have the ability and tools to do it in about an hour to 3 hours.

Your comment is so lacking depth of understanding that it hurts.
Whenever I see discussions about Communists, I always think about the gulags and death camps in the USSR. Russia was an empire before it was overrun with Communists. Human nature indeed. /S

It’s not even that it’s that they are deciding what the definition of the idealogy is based only on the most of obnoxious voices of that ideology.
But I’m sure that.ml represents all Communists and socialists correct? It’s totally an accurate representation because they call themselves those words

I hope that in the future we can stop using the worst monsters and strawmen from our peers chosen political affiliation to color our view of those peers.

I like the Democratic socialists. I don’t like it when they seize power that will be upsurped by the next administration in powerand used to oppress people.

You realize that libertarianism is not a left right spectrum of the political orientation, correct?
For example Stalin was an authoritarian based in leftist ideology. Hitler is an authoritarian based in right-wing ideology.
Notice that while their economic goals are at complete odds with one another, they are both authoritarians.
I’m libertarian because I believe in freedom of choice. I’m not a conservative because the only things I care about conserving are the oceans and the forests.

From my perspective I think that that is very silly. I don’t care for purity tests, but what would I know? I’m just a dirty libertarian.

This is a platform full of new people adventurers change makers. The majority of people who would be interested in this platform will have a more progressive bent. So the majority of people here will be more accepting of liberal policies.

- Comment on Trouble keeping a top-heavy TPE part on the bed 4 weeks ago:
If you’re open for more unorthodox rambling, is it possible that you can pause the printhead once you’ve printed the initial base area and then tape that down to the table or apply hot glue or another temporary adhesive to provide rigidity?
- Comment on Trouble keeping a top-heavy TPE part on the bed 4 weeks ago:
So I don’t actually have a 3D printer, but from my humble perspective, why don’t you just flip the print and print it on a separate orientation. So the top heavy part is now on the bottom or add extra struts for support to increase the mass of the unstable portion if you are not able to rotate the orientation of the print

I find it far more odd that you have jumped in here to defend the cringe comment than the other commenter to jump to a conclusion based on the context of the thread
- Comment on Donate USB Drives and SD Cards to Help US Smuggle Outside Info into North Korea 5 weeks ago:
You truly are clueless.
The United States is an imperfect country. the country has done many bad things to many people. There are many government officials who would prefer that those things not be spoken about. However, you can speak about them and you won’t be silenced.
Maybe we should put this into a joke to better reach you though.
In America you can call the president a dick bouncing buffoon. In North Korea. You can also call the American president a dick bouncing buffoon. Try calling Kim jong-un a. Dick bouncing buffoon.

So clearly the better option is to stick your head in the sand and pretend that the lies are real.

Your patiently wrong
Giving North Koreans access to South Korean media allows the North Koreans to see the disparity between the North and the South.

If you try to do calculus and don’t have the understanding of the underlying math then you won’t have a good time when ansible breaks. I’d advise it’s normally better to learn how to manually install and manage software from the command line.

I don’t know what access to hardware you have, but if I was you you would probably be better off making this yourself.
From what I’m understanding, you already have a hand cart/Dolly. I would advise that if you are not comfortable with welding to find a local machine shop most welders will be glad to pick up a simple job like this for $60 to $100 as you only really need a few welds to build out a basic frame on the dolly and extend the handles and casters to the dolly frame.
After you have the frame, all you need is a few 2x4s and plywood. Best
