If you search for “3d pen filament” on AliExpress or Amazon you can get smaller quantities (often in multi bags but it’s dirt cheap)

This is probably by design. The “system” keeps cities designed and built in a way that they are impossible to traverse without cars, which forces people to buy cars. Youngsters are earning shit wages but can’t get to work without a vehicle so they get into debt. It’s all fucked. I live in the Netherlands and can do everything I need to do with just my cargo bike. It rocks.

Makes total sense to me. Only the oldest of 3d printing nerds are going to know what Rep rep is. 3dPrintopia does what it says on the tin.

Finish a task without getting distracted after five minutes man.

I’m torn between the Defiant and Serenity

Polymaker (specifically Polyterra for PLA). I occasionally use Prusament when I get freebies from Printables but it’s far too expensive for general printing.

It’s Private (need insurance) but regulated by the government to ensure prices are fair and there is a fallback for people with low income.

Tried Jellyfin and it was a pain to get running on my NAS (the only add on in the Synology store is a random community port that doesn’t work well and the apps for the TV are all janky). Will stay with Plex until they sort it all out.

I cancelled Netflix about 8 months ago after realising that my wife and I weren’t enjoying it and my kids were just watching the same 2-3 shows on repeat. Cancelled Netflix and bought the shows my kids like via AppleTV.

In the Netherlands they say boo!

Do tridents have a “cutting edge”? It’s more of a “stabby end”.

And about time too!

Parenting. I get so overwhelmed by my kids.

I would have said Birmingham area myself. Doesn’t help that the accent makes them all sound thick as shit.

Urk has such a reputation! I’m an expat and even I know of it!

My employer gives us a commuting payment based on the distance from home to work (paid per km) on days we go to the office. We get an additional €60 a month to cover our working from home costs.

This might be the one for me for now. Just trying to import my subs (google takeout takes forever)!

I could, but a combination of ADHD and addictive personality makes it really hard for me. I'm also the tech person in the house so it's really hard for me to implement hard blocks that I don't know how to get around!

I actually did this a couple of years back with my wife :D

As a parent myself I often have to pause my kids internet because modern games and social media are addictive. I tell my kids it’s time to get off (because bed time, family activity, meals, etc etc) and they’re stuck in that “just one more” mind set. They can’t see that they’re addicted and we need some way to break the connection. We give them 30 minute warnings and remind them all the way down to zero and they still won’t shut down. If the parents are enforcing public usage it’s likely because the kid has been caught behaving inappropriately in private.

To the OP, maybe instead of trying to get around your parents rules, listen to them and understand why. Show some responsibility and they might start to trust you.
