Instead of an airbag blowing, in a crash the car permanently marks your chest with the current speed.

I cant wait for Amazon to get sued for offering their "customer service" to companies, while all they do is read the listing back to you or offer a refund or exchange.

Amazon charges sellers for this service, but just sends customers to call centers, usually in India, where the people on the other line barely know how their own platform works. Its like they are trying to get people to beg for AI.

Phil probably wont say it, but at a certain point, you need to grow up and move out of your parent's house.

Or get a wife. Women tend to have better sense than us.

One factor I did not consider during this period is the elections. Political parties spend massive ad money, and the rest of us simply cannot compete.

Happens for the 2 months before every election, without fail. Hard to get your message out there when your governor is spending 10x his opponent.

Taking on one of the issues I have been having with the INDX setup after a few weeks of printing.

I have found that the tube path for some materials has too many bends. The OEM towers route the tubing downward, then up into the lid, with a 90 degree bend in the mix from either ube from that tower, the tooling can fail to park, or just fall off the dock. These prevent that with just enough grip to keep the PTFE tame.

They also provide protection against the tube rubbing through itself on the hard top cover.

These are made to be inserted without having to remove the tube or filament, but it is easier to put them in bare. There are several others, but none addresses all of these problems.

Every Jeep transfer case linkage I sell not only supports my family, it supports at least 14 other families through our domestic supply chain.

Long distance hole punching is my favorite kind.

I don't think that people who champion ideas like this fully understand the logistics of a cross country maglev train. And that they would be better served in shorter runs, to ease congestion on major connectors, like the PA-376, which was one of the most congested sections of road in the nation at the end of the 1990's.

There is a reason that the Japanese Shinkansen are still normal rail. Same with the high speed trains in Europe. Most of it is cost, and a fair bit is the state of superconducting technologies, the cooling requirements, and the power needs of the entire system.

(Designing and planning a maglev connector from downtown Pittsburgh to PIT airport was my final project in college.)

Weird shape friend is still friend.

This brings an interesting question on INDX... will bare nozzles ever be sold? Its not hard to remove them from the tool holder, and I suspect the tool holders will have a longer life than the tool.

Need some help. Little over a year ago, my cousin passed away. He and my kiddo were super close, and one of the last times they were together, he recorded a little song for her on her Lenovo android tablet.

That tablet is now locked, she forgot the pin, and we have 1 guess left. AI hasn't helped, and this is way beyond my skillset. The SD card doesn't have it, neither does her google account.

If everyone could please share this donation link I would be extremely grateful. We are $1300 away from being able to buy the other 11 laptops for the foster kids at Action Inc so they can learn 3d Printing! Every dollar helps (plus we are giving away a TON of great prizes!)

I actually feel bad for Elon, even though I deeply disagree with him on some things.

Imagine trying to build a car company in California in the mid-2000s, when American manufacturing is being completely offshored and almost all of Wall Street thinks you’re a joke and is rooting the entire oil and gas industry is using all their power and leverage to make you fail.

But against all odds, you actually pull it off. You build cars that make electric vehicles desirable to millions of people, create an enormous number of quality American jobs, and force the global car industry to play catch up and move away from oil and gas.

You would think California would be proud of you and the team. Instead you find yourself having to fight a completely corrupt and incompetent left government impeding all your efforts while you sleep at the factory night after night to avoid collapse. At some point, you would go to the right too.

And because of your politics, it becomes a justification for people to celebrate your companies failing in their personal ideological fight with you. Even threats against you become something people explain away and use mental gymnastics to justify.

Meanwhile, people like Scott Galloway and Bernie Sanders who have made absolutely nobody better off other than themselves get to lecture you about your value to society and even call for your murder without grounds from their vacation home while you're on 20 hour benders in your factories trying to get things built for all of society. If this were me I would lose my mind.

Criticize his opinions. I do sometimes, especially on Ukraine. But the pleasure people take in wanting to destroy everything he’s built is hideous and frankly suicidal for the masses, especially coming from people who insist they care about workers, the climate, and civilization as a whole.

As you try to make good things for society you are confronted with a world that worships people who care only about the perception of being good people, while they actually fight against your tangible efforts of making improvements for humanity.

I don't think almost anyone would have made it out of that and if they did, they would probably not come away feeling so warm towards the left either. So I am rooting for Elon to succeed, and for humanity.

Wonder how common this kind of sales chart is?

I went from decent recovery to trying to survive in just one summer. I compared sales data against the tariffs too, and you know what? They made sales better, at least last year and early this year.

Normally when an extruder makes this noise, its grinding the filament down in the extruder gears. Barely any marks.

Tried a new spool. Failed. Been printing on this machine constantly for the last week and a half with no issues, and now, nothing works.
