- Comment on Why does apartment management expect you to call the police over every tenant incident? 15 hours ago:
Can you explain what’s unreasonable about that? External noise may be outside of their control but that doesnt mean they don’t bear some responsibility to ensure that residents have peace and quiet in the place they’re being charged to live. In that scenario, you would typically have the right to break your lease and move out without penalty. With internal noise, they have the responsibility to penalize the noisemaker with fines or eviction.
- Comment on Why does apartment management expect you to call the police over every tenant incident? 15 hours ago:
I’d be willing to bet that nearly 100% of apartment leases have some language in them about noise meaning apartment managers absolutely do have the power to enforce these limits. Even HOAs, where you buy the property with your own money can enforce their own rules because you agreed to that when you signed the paperwork.
- Comment on Does Prusas textured sheet...work at all? 23 hours ago:
I’ve been using hairspray for years too. I don’t get how people prefer chunky glue sticks or $80 “specialized” bed adhesion fluid over a nice uniform spray from an $8 bottle of Suave unscented.
- Comment on QWERTY Phones Are Really Trying to Make a Comeback This Year 6 days ago:
Whether it’s nostalgia for a physical keyboard, frustration at iOS’s ever-worsening software keyboard, or just plain boredom with glass slabs, companies are rebooting QWERTY phones this year for some reason.
Fuck them for mocking actual useful features and freedom of choice while simping for stupid shit like AI and enshittified tech from all the usual suspects.
- Comment on How do you think a socialist President would win the 2028 election? Would they use the exact methods used by Zohran Mamdani which earned him the office of Mayor of NYC? 6 days ago:
Why do you think a Mr. Rogers type person would be the ideal choice? That just leads to “we need to forgive and put this all behind us” type responses which drives even more unaccountability, more inaction, and leads to more problems. I think a Mr. Rogers type is the exact opposite of what we need in response to Trump.
- Comment on What do you guys do with your poo? 1 week ago:
I was actually just looking at this last night and I think the best two options are melting into silicon molds and embedding into resin in silicon molds. Uncle Jessy has a good tutorial on YouTube of both the former and latter.
- Comment on How do I improve the overhangs on my Artillery Genius? 1 week ago:
I’ve never seen support material visually improve overhangs apart from the specialized support filament that doesn’t bond with the print material. Traditional support always leaves a gap between the support material and the print material, otherwise they’d fuse together and become one with the print, meaning even with support, the print material sags anyway.
OP would probably be better served with adaptive layers and using a much finer layer height in the overhang region.
- Comment on Why do your own farts smell so bad in the shower? 1 week ago:
Its probably also the fact that you’re using flowery soap and shampoo at the same time which probably makes the smell seem much more intense than if it were being smelled against a ‘neutral air’ background. Kinda similar to what happens when you smell coffee beans between wine tastings or samples in a perfume/cologne shop.

This person was in the same exact boat and was able to get proof of their old residency from their credit report
- Comment on Why in hospitals, is 'gun shot wound' appreciated as "GSW"- 1 week ago:
Because we must pay homage to mister World Wide himself, Pitbull, as we browse the internet.
- Comment on Options to Expand Sata HDD Drives on a Lenovo Computer 1 week ago:
There’s also the possibility they’re referring to the current draw through the mobo connector itself frying things. A couple of HDDs at 12V, 10W will be pulling almost 2A which can be a lot for some circuit board traces, but there’s no great way know what the board can handle without documentation from the manufacturer or someone with relevantt engineering experience well above what a typical computer repair shop would have.
If I were OP I would just roll the dice and try it out. Its not as if old Dell office PCs are high dollar items.
- Comment on Options to Expand Sata HDD Drives on a Lenovo Computer 1 week ago:
Those are the molex to sata power adapters that are a fire hazard. I haven’t ever heard of this type causing issues and have been using them for years and years without issue.
- Comment on Fuck. My. Life. 🙃 1 week ago:
When I had my old printer I had way better luck setting my Z height with receipt paper than with normal printer paper.
- Comment on Is this nozzle too low or bed temperature issue? 1 week ago:
To test this you could heat the bed up for 10 or 15 minutes before starting the print so that the new PEI sheet gets saturated with heat. I don’t think this is your issue though as you can print PLA without a heated bed at all.
- Comment on Microsoft Office has been renamed to “Microsoft 365 Copilot app” 2 weeks ago:
Oh my god! Let me get my checkbook
- Comment on Microsoft Office has been renamed to “Microsoft 365 Copilot app” 2 weeks ago:
I think I know why. Microsoft Office was a product. Their new strategy is Services. They want you to lease their services and have vendor lock-in forever. It takes a long time for businesses to migrate.
They already did/do that and it’s called Office 365.
- Comment on Recommendations 2 weeks ago:
However they are in the long run likely to be expensive since they require their supplies (which are reportedly good, but expensive)
They’re literally not expensive at all. You can get good quality PLA for as little as $13/KG if you buy in bulk (4 rolls or more) and all their replacement parts are dirt cheap. Bambu didnt take over because of great marketing, they took over because they build a great product at a great price as well as thinking about every little creature comfort one might want and including those too. I do think they’re going down the same road as Apple, but so will every other successful company, so you might as well enjoy it while it lasts.
If you want something to tinker and expirament with, you should build something like a Voron and not a premade commercial product.

I’m not condoning their lockdown practices
Qidi is good but their klipper is modified and not open source. Q1 pro is what I have and it’s great
Lol

Also many car manuals tell you to depress the brake to start the vehicle.

- Comment on What are good option for self hosting home security camera? 2 weeks ago:
This is what i have. Amcrest cameras tied to an Amcrest NVR which offers remote viewing, recording, and playback and then also tied into Frigate and Home Assistant also for remote viewing, event notifications, etc. I could ditch the NVR but I’d need to get a POE switch and I like having it as a backup.
- Comment on Regular gym-goers probably avoid the gym on New Years Day because it's too crowded 2 weeks ago:
4th of July has all those BBQ dishes. Might want to push it off until Labor Day.
- Comment on Regular gym-goers probably avoid the gym on New Years Day because it's too crowded 2 weeks ago:
It has always seemed so illogical to me that people want to make changes in their life but decide to wait for a specific calendar day to start them. I think thats a big reason why most people fail to follow through on their resolutions because if you really wanted to make that change, you wouldn’t wait until January 1st to do it.

Our brand new GE fridge is like this. The temperature is set to 41F and it still causes some things to freeze on the shelves.

And lets take a step back to see the forest for the trees and realize the destination for this energy is more AI slop with little to no use for anyone.

- Comment on Question: To replace or attempt fix 3 weeks ago:
This is basically me and several people I know who all grew tired of the constant tinkering and print failures and quit using their printers almost completely before upgrading to the new crop of printers that just work (in our case Bambu) without all the fuss. I now have 3100 print hours on my X1C after about a year and a half which is probably 2-3 times the usage of my old Artillery Sidewinder after 3.5 years of ownership and tons of mods.
- Comment on Why does my overhang/bridge look so bad? Isn't this small enough to be done better? 3 weeks ago:
See if you can change the number of bottom layers or the bottom layer pattern to get a different result.
- Comment on YSK that you can/should budget yearly for long term purchases 3 weeks ago:
Im not great with budgeting but this is what I do. I just keep a pool of money for ‘whatever’ purchases.
