๐Ÿ˜‚ I don't pay that much attention to usernames, but once I saw your comment, I was like "hey, I think I have come across SatansMaggotyCumFart a few times before!"

Ah ok. I am not a native speaker, but would say I have a near native fluency in American English (moved here at 15 having already learned it before), and school of fish would be my go to, but shoal is the same as you said to me, sounds perfectly natural. Now that I am thinking about it though, it feels like every time I was near one (on a boat, or scuba diving), people said shoal, and in more abstract settings, school was more common. That's probably just me inventing a pattern though

Agreed, although I think a school of fish is also pretty broadly used, no?

Very interesting, thanks for sharing. Just curious, is -uk just a general suffix to make anything plural, or this is just a one off thing here?

Just had to look it up, never heard of it! Thanks for the suggestion.

I live in high humidity, so that's a big part of my setup. I print from a custom dryer with 4 spools in it, which feed to the printer through PTFE bowden tubes. I have a wifi switch for the dryer that just turns on once in a while to keep the ones sitting there from getting wet by keeping the inside of the dryer, well, dry. I store all my filament in containers with a 3d printed silica containers that go into the spool. I use the "rechargeable" silica beads that change color when saturated. Once in a while, when I see that the beads are turning blue in the containers from opening and closing, I will do a drying session where I dry all the silica containers and the spools for a good while and put them all back into the containers. Can be a bit overkill, but it fully eliminates that factor for me!

I like your thinking! Also, delete your comment for legal reasons ๐Ÿ˜‰

That's a thing where I am from. Also, only day where alcohol cannot be sold, as you must do your duty sober. Fair compromise if you ask me: if I already know who I am voting for, I also had the prescience to buy my booze the night before :)

It wasn't my original intention, but ingress made me walk a whole lot!

Ha thanks. I was super confused because my mobile client only shows my login username, but forgot that I just learned that I could set a display name to match my avatar haha. I was between that and a nerdier "root@HAL9000"

Maybe it was the OCR? As in you used Google lens?
