Eh, it's anime. Everything's exaggerated. Have you ever seen cock plate? It's a real thing, and just as silly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armor_of_Ferdinand_I,_Holy_Roman_Emperor

Using The Wind And Magnets To Make Heat in c/technology

It’s very cool

Wait, are they cool or hot? I'm so confused.

MMOs 'don't give people the tools to build community anymore,' says EverQuest 2 creative director in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

My biggest frustration with community building is how it's so hard to do natively in game. (I play WoW.) Typing is slow and takes away time from DPS, especially if you are in a group with impatient veterans who want to chain pull. There needs to be quick communication, like a wheel or something. (I use Opie to create this, macro common sayings, like in Helldivers.) I need a V button like from Deep Rock Galactic. Give me fast way to communicate simple emotes and I'll build from there.

Additionally, I'll never see the people in PUGs again. Why bother being friendly? In Vanilla, we had the same server, a reduced population. I could literally run into a person in Ironforge a few days after a group. (Don't group with that guy, he'll yell at you for jumping.) I'd see the same names in trade chat. (Oh, that's the nice blacksmith that made my sword!) When everything is cross server, the population is so large and I'll never see them again, and 1 dungeon run is not enough to know if someone is worth making friends. Friends happen by repeated forced interaction and then realizing later that you liked them.

I also think that a 3rd place would help. Give me a space and a reason to be there. Only running dungeons thru magical teleport menus is immersion breaking and doesn't foster any social interactions. Chat channels spamming LFG was terrible and slow, but at least you talked to people. The Theme Park nature and menu driven dungeons build zero community.

Any specific questions? I’d love to help.

No, not yet, but thanks. Just wanted a general picture of things.

Starting buspirone. Anyone have experiences they can share? (lemm.ee)
 

I had been on lexapro/escitalopram for years but asked for something different to help with weight. Switched to Trintellix several months ago, but it's not working very well and my weight is the same. Doc gave me option to try adding buspirone or go back to escitalopram. I chose buspirone. Anyone else tried it?

Study: Sanitation Effectiveness of 3D-printed Parts for Food and Medical Applications (www.researchgate.net)
 

Abstract
Sanitation effectiveness of 3D-printed parts for food and medical applications has been established in a 4-month lab study and controlled tests. The present study examined the continued use of sanitation techniques across 3 more months of testing and experimentation in household kitchens. Multiple specimens of the most common thermoplastics for Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF), were printed with a range of settings to test for pathogen contamination, biofilm production, bacteria, or other pathogens masking (hiding) in the layer lines, gaps, and other imperfections of said prints. This study investigates methods of sanitation and cleaning to reduce or eliminate pathogens along with its biofilms from the defects and interstitial spaces that naturally occur in FFF printing. Results from various testing methods used in hospitals and FDA approved microbial surface testing, indicate that 3D printed parts of PLA/PLA+ (Polylactic Acid), and PETG (Polyethylene terephthalate glycol) can be cleaned to safe levels using warm water (120 °F), and non-concentrated dish soap. Examination and verification of cleanliness were completed via Petri dish preparations, and protein residue testing. It was found that Colony Forming Units (CFU) and Plaque Forming Units (PFU) had been reduced by 90%. Experimental results indicate that using 2g of baking soda, when used with soapy water, eliminates biofilms by chemical and physical action, neutralizes acidic bacteria, and removes mucus. It is recommended and tested by surgical technicians, that a 2-minute room temperature bleach water soak (200ppm), after washing and rinsing should be done to ensure pathogens are at safe levels. Acetic acid from vinegar was tested as well via petri dish for CFU reduction and can effectively eradicate biofilms due to the ability to penetrate the biofilm matrix and the cell membrane. It is noted to the reader that sanitation in this context refers to the method of bringing a surface or object to safe levels of cleanliness for food or medical preparation and storage. Furthermore, mass spectrometry readings indicate that no contamination from heavy metals, or other toxins are present in PLA+, and PETG before and after printing. Lastly, filaments made from a pull-trusion method from recycled soda or water bottles has been tested as well. When using 3D-printed items for liquids, it is highly recommended to coat the 3D-printed parts in resin. This is a simple, fast, safe, and very effective way to smooth parts to ensure easy cleaning.

There's abotu 5 seconds of "mecha" in the trailer. Looks awesome, but that is sooooo brief.

Thanks.

I do eat fruit. Freaking love it. At least 1 apple a day, they are my fav, and often more. I try to eat veggies as much as possible and skip meat when possible. Fiber hasn't been a huge focus for me, but it's worth a shot. I've got a refried beans recipe I freaking love. I wish my kids liked it. My veggie chili is also great, but, you know, kids.

I want to work there. It would feel so fulfilling. I would be so much fatter, eating all the scraps.
