  • Make more money, right? Work harder?

    That's not even close to what they're saying.

    They're saying that, given the amount of work you put in, you shouldn't have to be living on such a tight budget. Not that you should just magically make more money.

    Furthermore, they aren't leaving anything in should/could/would land. They aren't implying that you should be providing aid to those that need it, but that you should be receiving aid if you participated in this and fell on hard times because of it.

  • Oh, I agree completely. I don't think the tech as-is should be being priced at all. What I'm saying is, even if this product does come to fruition, it likely will still be incredibly expensive compared to normal filament, but the amount one would need to use in a project is very small comparatively.

  • Of course that's insanely expensive compared to our economy packs of standard PLA, but consider how much conductive filament one would need in comparison to normal filament for a project.

    I'm aware that everything is in the realm of hypotheticals and prototypes, but even if the final product is significantly more expensive than standard filament, it's not like you'll need to be able to print entire parts out of it, just the electric traces.

  • I haven't looked to see if one already exists.

    But, like someone else said, this would be relatively easy to model.

    I would go about it in a different way; here's a quick drawing:

    Make the loop for the plug side slightly smaller than the diameter of the cable so it's a super snug fit, and the other side with a large enough gap that you can easily push the cable through it.

  • I have tinnitus that makes concentrating on anything in complete silence absolutely aggravating. The tiniest bit of background noise makes it so I don't notice it anymore, so I generally have an instrumental playing when I need to focus on something like homework or reading.

  • Most likely. I've started a new job that takes a lot of my time, and I have other games on the docket, but shoot me a message with some info about the level (no spoilers please!) and I'll do my best to shoot one back once I've completed it!

  • Second response about level design which is a HUGE deal for me (my most replayed game is Portal 2 with uh, over 50 replays 🥴), if it goes on sale while I'm playing the first one I'm definitely picking it up. Thanks!

  • I didn't recognize "Dishonored" as a game title at first and thought that his public image was damaged by something.

    Shame to hear of such talent leaving us so early. I've been wanting to replay Dishonored, and play the 2nd for the first time; I might make the time now.

  • You could get a small one of those Pelican-style hard cases and make some small notches at the lid to run your cables through. You could even use a phone (many in the last 5ish years have some degree of waterproofing) as a monitor and keyboard and just chuck the Pi Box in a corner for ultimate portability/size reduction.

  • It's been a little while since I've printed anything that needed specific settings like this, but I'm pretty sure that Cura's combing/ avoid printed areas settings will do this for you. Though I don't have any experience with one wall thickness parts and this setting.

  • Oh yeah, I don't doubt that for a second. Ms Schwalbach was a genuinely miserable person who had it out for me, for some reason. She taught me a valuable lesson that day, just not the one she tried to teach.

    Edit: I was curious, and looked her up just now. She's on the school district's committee. Only the best make their way to leadership, I suppose

  • In 3rd grade (maybe age 8), when coming back from the playground, my teacher had a rule:

    STRAIGHT LINE, NO TALKING, NO TOUCHING

    One day, when coming back from recess, I noticed that the kid in front of me, Joe, was crying. Now, I didn't like Joe, he was a bully and had made fun of me and my friend group since the 2nd grade. But I still didn't like just letting someone sit there upset. So I put a hand on his shoulder and said, "hey, are you ok?"

    Thus breaking two of the three most important rules you could possibly imagine. The teacher came over and chastised me for "playing around in line", completely ignoring Joe (who was still crying). I tried to argue, but to no avail.

    Later that day, the teacher made a huge speech in front of the class about how sometimes you think you're doing the right thing, but you still need to follow the rules, and gave me a citation in front of the entire class.

    Also, Joe continued to bully me.
