Ice and water fun a fridge is a luxury, but a nice luxury, and requires zero computers to do it

Wow, are you me? Haha also circuit stuff, woodworking when I was a kid, piano I never play, just got my first sewing machine a few months ago.
Add in fpv drones, ham radio, meshtastic, homelab, enthusiast grade flashlights, longboarding, snowboarding, wake surfing, backpacking, flipperzero, LINUX! Lol you can run out of time and money pretty quickly.
But, do all these things just a little, and it’s good.
Do you really never ever touch your stuff anymore? Or just nowhere near as much as you did?
Because for me, I still sometimes, rarely, but sometimes, utilize the skills I gained. I don’t go hard on any single one of those things anymore, but I’m glad that I did, or at least I tell myself I am. Now when I go backpacking, I know I have the best flashlight for the job. When I play with meshtastic, my ham radio skills tell me my antenna placement is optimal. When we were sending a care package to a sick friend, we thought of a funny inside joke to reference, so I dusted off the 3D printer and printed up a couple trinkets that were perfectly matched to the joke. When I decided to set up my homelab, my previous love of Linux made it easier to set up proxmox. When I wanted to use my camp chair at the beach, I was able to sew a sheet to stretch between the feet to support me on the sand.
It’s up to you what you wanna do. But I don’t view my hobby jumping as a bad thing. So long as I keep the spending more or less in check, who cares? I’m having fun, learning skills, and those skills can come in handy.
Other people are sometimes jealous of my ability to learn and enjoy so many things. I’m able to help them when they get started later, because I have an approximate knowledge of many things 😂
I say go for it 😁

Lots of comments here, plenty of information for you. I’ll add to the pile that I started playing with my buddies stock ender 3, fought it often, lots of tweaking and configuring.
Then I got my own ender 3v2, and fought it less, but still needs tinkering. Usually though I can fire it up and print small stuff without touching it. I print infrequently these days, so the procedure usually involves wiping the dust off the bed first. But it works well enough for my needs.
I tend to get into hobbies for awhile and then back off, so I’m glad I didn’t spend more. And really, while $300 is a lot of money in many ways, in some ways it’s not so much. I’m glad I have a printer, it is occasionally highly useful. But I’m glad I don’t have a $600-1000 printer. Personally 🤷♂️ but that’s just me.

13/14 for me. Thinkpad 600 😎
- Comment on A hypothesis 1 week ago:
I was around 13 for my first Linux install. Good times. Think pad 600, what a classic.
If I could have that exact same machine, with modern specs, I’d be hard pressed to use anything else. The nostalgia alone… So good.

I’m on boost too. Let’s find out, here’s a picture uploaded using the built in function. Image
Well I’ll be darned, I thought it was using imgur, but I guess it’s straight to the instance. Neat.

Still irritates me that modern games don’t have this. Surely it’s not that hard to implement in modern games.
And in the case of the master chief collection? They literally just… Turned it off. The code is there, it could work, but they say no.
If you buy it on Xbox, you can do splitscreen. If you buy it on PC? You cannot.
However, if you use alpharing, you can patch the game with literal kilobytes of code, and force activate splitscreen. It’s a little janky, but proves the code is in there, it’s just turned off.
Disgusting.

It’s on the edge of the road by an intersection, so yeah probably should be handled
- Comment on whatever happened to in-store coffee grinders? 1 month ago:
I like flavored coffee on occasion. We have two grinders, the slightly lower quality one gets all the flavored beans, they never go into the good grinder.
That said, I got a handful of flavors recently to share with friends. I like to bring our espresso machine glamping, I set it up on a table under a tarp next to our tent, with a 100 foot cord running to a small generator.
When I got home, I tried mixing a little bit of each flavor together. 5 flavors,a few beans from each. It was honestly terrible. Far worse than any individual flavor by itself. It wasn’t unique or interesting, it was bad, and I’ll never do it again 🤷♂️

I admit I didn’t get closer than this picture, I was on my way somewhere. But it was so shocking I had to stop and take a picture. That was last week.
I assumed mushrooms. And then was reminded today when I saw this article.

- Comment on Who plays like that x_x 2 months ago:
Yep. And for me, it changed. I played fps on controller my whole childhood, I was always standard. I started playing less controller and more noise and keyboard as I got older.
A few years ago I started flying fpv drones.
Recently tried to use a controller again? Whoops I can only play inverted now 🤷♂️

Good to know, I’ll have to play with it.

Ah that makes sense haha

Hmmm, that doesn’t sound very encouraging haha. Well I’m gonna try PEI anyway, see if I can keep it flat enough.
- Comment on Adhered so hard it delaminated the glass. 2 months ago:
That’s encouraging!
- Comment on Adhered so hard it delaminated the glass. 2 months ago:
I thought too cold caused warping, does too warm cause it as well?
- Comment on Adhered so hard it delaminated the glass. 2 months ago:
Now I know this to be true
- Comment on Adhered so hard it delaminated the glass. 2 months ago:
I put the whole apparatus in the fridge for a few hours, hoping it would just pop off.
The edges came up clean, but the very middle was very unhappy. I had some lifting on the corners so I think there was a draft and the plate wasn’t warming equally. Hot spot in the middle trying to keep up maybe? IDK.

This is a pretty deep hole, I don’t think tape will cut it.
But I’ve been printing little things on the front portion 🤷♂️
- Comment on Adhered so hard it delaminated the glass. 2 months ago:
I do this too, normally it works a treat.
- Comment on Adhered so hard it delaminated the glass. 2 months ago:
Somehow I missed all the warning signs and discussion on the subject. I’ll never forget.

Can’t be much worse than a big hunk of glass?
