I do see your angle, and agree it can be interpreted this way, but I'm not sure I'm convinced this was intentional, or that a significant number of people had the same take away. If Cameron had the Patriot Act in mind (which he certainly could have), I feel it's more likely that he made a weak attempt at showing us that it's bad to use such power, rather than a veiled attempt to say "but sometimes it's ok".

To each their own though! Thank you for sharing this perspective.

The Patriot Act is used to catch the Joker

Wasn't the entire message behind that arc "nobody should weild this power" and that's why they destroyed it..?

Interesting! Any idea if it's uncommon or anything? From what I'd read (which is admittedly not a lot), 95 is when they'd switched to OBDII, but maybe they made the change in the middle of the production cycle?

If I'm not mistaken, the 94 is also the only year to have the 1.8 but still using OBD rather than OBDII, which supposedly makes it easier to slap a turbo in.

Preferring the slower version is wild, haha. I'll be moving from a VQ platform so losing ~200HP is going to be an adjustment.

1994 Miata

I wrecked my car recently and this might be the new one if I can't fix it. Did you get a 94 for the reasons I think you got a 94?

I think you can do it! If you've never done anything similar maybe practice on a piece of scrap wood but it should be easy enough to make it look better than a sharpie would

Marker will look good for now, but in a couple of weeks it will probably be fairly noticeable again if you're doing it straight on wood.

If you want it to look good. Sand down the area inside and directly around the chip so that it's smooth. Brush on a layer of white primer, let it dry for a day, then layer on some paint in whatever color and finish of the guitar. Maybe some sealer if you want but if it's just a chip I don't think it's necessary.

It sounds like a lot of work but it's maybe an hour or two of actually doing anything, and for a thousand dollar guitar I'd say it's worth it. I like projects like this, though, maybe you're ok with the slightly faded Sharpie. I would still smooth the area out with some light sanding first, though.

I've never really understood why people specifically avoid buying products with RGB lighting. You can usually just set it to a color you like, or simply turn them off. Instead people don't buy the thing they want because of the "obnoxious RGB". Imo it's like not wanting to buy a nice speaker because when you tried it at the store the volume was too high or you didn't like the sample track it played.

I use "my guy" as a humorous precursor to the rest of my sentence regardless of whom I'm speaking to.

You can drop any block of g-code into your slicer, but that would require running the file to get the commands to run. In Klipper, you can just run the macro.

For example I've got a "enclosure heat" macro that

1. Sets bed temp to 100 and extruder to 280
2. Turns all fans to max
3. Moves my print head in front of my webcam (there is an ambient temp display on the print head)

I can do all of these manually, of course, but with a macro I can just push a button and it does all of it.

It also makes it so you don't have to paste those entire g-code command blocks into whatever file you're slicing, and so that you can retroactively change commands. (Instead of having the entire startup sequence at the beginning of every g-code, I have a "START_PRINT" macro at the beginning; if I change the macro, all of the files I already sliced will have the updated behavior).

I agree with most of your points, but I do wanna say that in regards to the last mark, there are reasons besides contributing to the code and building your own firmware to want to use something like Klipper. I'm not a programmer at all but the amount of customization and QOL tools I can achieve compared to what you're able to do with Bambu's software is insane. I can never go back to a printer without custom macros

Granted. Nothing changes. He is willing and capable, but his incentives for keeping things the way they are are too good.

Bro started off talking about how Americans are incapable of critical thinking and proceded to write the rest of the post.

I have a short, wide basket for clean clothes and a tall skinny round basket for dirty. Clothes that are still pretty much clean (think a flannel I just washed and wore over a T-shirt for an evening) normally get tossed back into the clean basket for "eventual" folding and putting away. Clothes that are more on the dirty side but don't need to be washed right away (mostly pants or shirts that were only worn for a quick outing) will get draped on the side of the dirty basket.

Looks like the model is just resting on supports. Might have a roof or "support interface" (a layer between supports and model)

Trying to compare someone doing drugs to raping someone else is a really weak comparison. A person doing drugs is making a decision for themselves. A person raping or otherwise harming a person is making a decision for the other person.

I can't tell if you're a troll or actually unwell.

In one comment you call someone racist for saying that beauty standards are rooted in white supremacy, and in your following comment you "explain" how Aryan women are objectively more beautiful than women of other races.

Do you hear yourself? You think that these "studies of beauty" are anything other than horny, objectifying dudes rating women's bodies. Surprise surprise, those dudes think white women are hotter than non-white women. This is where that other person's comment on phrenology came from, you're referencing pseudoscience as if it's fact.

And before you call me a fanboy defending whoever the fuck you're talking about, I've got no idea who she is, and whether or not I would find her personally attractive is irrelevant. Your question and the entire premise is weird, and your justification behind it when being called out is rooted in more problematic ideology.

Pavlov's dogs and Schrodinger's cat?

There's something there, I think, but it doesn't land as is.

I sat on it for a while and came up with this:

Pavlov and Schrodinger were flying together to a Thinker's Convention. Their plane lost power and, in effort to make a safe landing, the pilot dumped their cargo.

For citizens below, it was raining cats and dogs.

How is them editing the title anything besides confirmation that it was a simple typo? I really don't understand why you're so bent out of shape. Most people here came from Reddit and the organization is very similar, accidentally putting r/ instead of c/ is something that happens all the time. The whole "Reddit bad!! 😠" attitude is just immature and probably hypocritical.

which now makes it seem as though I had no idea what I was talking about

No, I know what you're talking about.

OP put r/, I called them out on it

I'm saying that making a simple typo is not really something you need to "call someone out on". Nobody ever denied them using r/, so the "let's be honest" seemed extra silly.
