Oh wow, I completely forgot about r/casualconversation. Never subbed but I used to see it on r/all often, but it's been years.
That said, I caught up on sleep mostly and messed around with my 3d printers. Got an appt in about an hour and couldn't sleep last night so been up all night, lol. So much for catching up.
How deep are you into 3d printers? Do you have a couple you are learning about or do you have a room full of them? People seem to gravitate to the extremes ๐คฃ
I've had 1 Prusa MK3S+ for a little over a year, and I just got a 2nd one about a month ago. It's true, one is not enough after a while. I've gotten into to CAD design using Fusion 360 and I have tons of designs waiting to be printed. Have done a bunch of mods as well as a printed enclosure for one and currently printing the 2nd. It's an awesome hobby. I'm a disabled veteran and I don't work anymore so 3D print stuff takes up my time nowadays. Finding little things around the house that I can make better by prints is so fun to me.
That's awesome, such a practical hobby. I tried to get into it with an UP MINI years ago but had too many competing hobbies already (read: not retired) so didn't really catch for me. I'm sure it'll come back at another time though
I'd been following 3D printing for years and finally had some extra dough to get a nice printer. And now I just want a whole farm of them, haha.
I'll miss all the subreddits full of folks discovering identities, finding new ways to understand themselves. I hope we'll hit a critical mass over here so folks can find themselves!
God I love the smaller communities, they're so much better. Especially when you recognize the people.

Having an good morning and had a good busy weekend. But not enough time for myself. You?
You sound like you know wassup; what's the quickest way for someone like me to navigate to a suggested community like the one you've mentioned? It's clearly not a URL extension, and clicking the link wants me to send an email XD I know I can search, but are there shortcuts around this place?
Chat is a community at the beehaw.org instance If you copy and past the link into the search bar in your instance you should be able to find it, sometimes it takes a couple of tries if nobody is subscribed to that community on your instance. Also, the link [email protected] should also work I believe?
Thank you for taking the time :) for once, it has finally clicked that I can drop the topic@instance on the end of my "signed in" instance domain with a /c/. Man, people who aren't computer people or curious thinkers will never figure this place out.
Although maybe that's a good thing.
Yeah there are a bunch of ways to do things. And tbh, I didn't do it that way ever myself. But true that does work.
It currently really is a place for tinkerers
My morning is going good. I have the day off and a friend's birthday party to go to later. I'm going to spend some time rehearsing music for the barbershop chorus I sing in, and maybe crochet a little bit.
Got back from dropping my son at table-tennis. My neighbour's dog was trotting toward my house and my cat was sat in front.
He is scared of my cat because she hissed at him once. Poor boy was stuck in a limbo, unable to go back was the terrifying black and white lioness was blocking one route and and my car blocked the other.
Eventually he decided the car was safer than the cat and went home.
good!! no i didnt do naything cool except sign up for matrix and lemmy and deleted reddit :] i also got a 5 star animal crossing island
Seems the Lemmy servers are getting hammered right now with the thousands of new users.
It was nice to finally have free time with a lot of sun this weekend. Spent all Saturday drinking Pimm's on the roof terrace with a friend of a friend. Then most of Sunday playing Zelda TOTK.
my morning's going really well. watched some bluey with my daughter before she got picked up by her grandma and i'm currently being groomed by my new 11 week old kitten while i ignore a meeting. weekend was pretty good too. got the cat and played some dnd for the first time in like 3 months. we all forgot some pretty basic rules but it was a blast. our wizard killed 2 players at once by dropping a levitated one 20 feet ontop of another one. it was pretty funny.
What's bluey?
An absolutely fantastic kids show. If you have little kids i 100% recommend checking it out. The show is just as much for the parents as it is the kids.
Could be better. Don't feel like going into details in the moment, but its alright.

Sewing queue finally empty and I've got some breathing room for costuming before the autumn renaissance festivals start up.
