As an American who watches a lot of British panel shows, “not bad” is as close to a glowing review as I could hope for. Our reproductions just don’t seem to capture the secret sauce for these shows. The panelists usually come across as unlikable, or miss comedic opportunities the British casts usually seize on. It’s also usually the same cast of d-list celebs who I don’t care for. If they look like they’re having a good time and not being just plain mean to each other it’ll probably work. Gonna check it out tonight. Thanks.
I haven’t owned a phone with removable storage since the Samsung Galaxy S5 back in 2015. (I miss that phone) Since then I’ve gone from iPhone, to Pixel, to Pixel, to iPhone, to iPhone. None of which had/have removable storage. Personally I don’t require much storage. The largest consumer of storage on my current phone is “Messages” at like 10G. I’m pretty sure the Photos app offloads photos to iCloud regularly so It says only 1G of storage.
I’ve owned my Stagg for about 3 years now. It’s a pretty damn good kettle, but very pricey. Since I already had the base with the Stagg purchase, I bought just the Corvo to try out and compare. When I was making pour over coffee I preferred the Stagg. (It got to be too tedious a job when waking up first thing in the morning) When making iced tea I prefer the Corvo since I am just transferring boiling water from one container to another quickly.
There is a saying “God isn’t creating any more land”. Regardless of your religious beliefs, I think you get it. It’s common knowledge that if you’re renting you are throwing money away. If you can’t or aren’t actively working to buy a home you are throwing money out the window. That’s the cold hard fact. If you don’t like landlords then don’t enter into a lease and give them money. For normal people just starting out, The question you need to ask is “is this worth it to live here?” In the last 40 years the population has doubled from 4 billion to 8 billion. There is a breaking point. It’s unlikely we will double again in the next 20 years, but we’ve never been here before, so who knows? If you want to live in a city, fine. You’re probably not going to be able to afford to own anything, but hey, you can get that dish you like delivered from the small place down the road. If you want to live in a rural area your options are infinitely more affordable; however new home builds keeping up with increasing population and inflation is going to be your biggest obstacle, and you wont be able to get that dish you love so much delivered. Guess you’ll have to buy groceries and cook. People don’t build their own homes much anymore. My parents did it, but I see very few doing it today. So if you go that route I would expect problems getting the work you can’t do yourself subcontracted out easily.
There are at the very least four options with increasingly better value. City, Suburb, Rural, and Wilderness. If you have to commute then you are limited, if you can work remote your options are less restricted to areas with internet.
The more I hear people bitching a moaning about landlords the more pissed off I get. What are you doing to get off of your reliance of them? If you’re unwilling to leave a populated area to a more affordable place then sit down and shut the fuck up. They’re price fixing? Ok, prove it and sue them, but that takes time and energy. Time and energy you could spend to get off your ass and make better decisions. I don’t think the people complaining are going to do that. They seem somehow entitled to the place they live, but they don’t own it. You have better options and you refuse to see them.
The new-ish Federal Trade Commission head has been making a push to work on quite a few projects for the past couple of years. They have a very small resources and man-power compared to the war chests of multibillion dollar companies, but recently, somehow managed to bring charges against Google as a monopoly. This in my opinion is a good thing. I consider myself a social liberal and a fiscal conservative. I don’t like how our government seems to take the money of these companies and turn a blind eye as they do what they want in pursuit of the almighty dollar. I support her endeavors working for the interests of the majority of people and not those few with the most money.
You’re telling me that in the 90 years that this cave has been open to the public, no one on a tour has dropped a piece of trash inside it? I’m assuming food isn’t allowed on the tours through the cave, probably because someone did just this exact same thing.
I’m with the rest of the doom-scrollers. What a horrible human beings. What a pieces of trash, littering in our national parks, but seriously will this be the end of it? Is this article playing it up just a bit too much? Littering in my area is a fine up to $5000.00. Use the system and charge them.
Edit: “Rangers at Carlsbad Caverns National Park in southern New Mexico describe it as a “world-changing” event” Motherfucker someone chiseled out rock. Poured concrete for walkways and added steel handrails for fat-sweaty tourists to walk through this bitch. Where is the line for what damages this natural wonder?
Can you imagine the amount of microbes on the hand rails??
It's the same thing in the US. I see C-130's flying in formation and think they're probably training or clocking flight time. OP is using terms like "militarism holidays" which I've never heard anyone use in conversation here, ever. We have "air shows" on patriotic national holidays like Independence day, or Memorial day. At some large sporting events like the NFL Superbowl, or maybe the MLB World Series get "flyovers" over the stadium.
The best upgrade I made for the Ender 3 for adhesion was a PEI coated build plate. I don’t know the specs of the V2, but the brand I went with was “Wham Bam Systems” mine didn’t have a magnetic bed so I had to purchase the kit with the magnetic plate, and stainless steel PEI coated build surface. It was nice being able to pull off the plate and pop prints off of it. Be careful printing PETG on PEI it can fuse to the PEI
If the V2 has some sort of leveling system make sure it’s working correctly or the PEI sheet isn’t really going to help. Mine did not. I had so many failures where the print head crashed into the sheet and gouged it. The Z end stop wasn’t the best. I added a BLTouch probe and flashed the firmware and it got much better.
Creality is good because they brought an entry level 3d printer to market for an affordable price, and people like me got into the hobby because of that. The price point shows in the parts they use to assemble it. I’ve clocked countless hours learning how to correct failures, and upgrade the cheap parts for better, more reliable parts, add features, modify and flash firmware.
Five and a half years ago I bought that ender 3 pro. I think it was around $250 USD. I probably spent over $300 more upgrading it and replacing parts. In retrospect I shouldn’t have cheaped out, but that’s the conclusion I came to. I no longer want to waste time fixing the printer. If I walk away and don’t print anything for weeks/months at a time I’d like to have confidence when I fire it up it’s going to work.
I ordered a Prusa MK4S about a month ago which was the top-end hobbyist printer back then, and I am blown away by the difference. Prusa may not be the top at the moment, but the quality and support is there.
I recommend that unless you have the free time, you’re willing to tinker, and are not easily frustrated, you should look into a higher quality brand.
