I was never a detailer or interior guy, but I painted a lot of cars that went through auctions and used car lots, and I’ve seen things man, unexplainable things. Not that they lacked potential solutions, but that the questions should never be asked

Don’t worry he is on a short Israeli leash. Epstein was mossad.

I’d prefer benevolent god over tech wizard bdsm billionaire exceptionalism. The guy choosing to be small is far greater than the guy buying big shoes

Just don’t think of it as a diet or oppressive. Make it a lifestyle. I’m still around 220 after 11 years of mostly stuck in bed. 16 years ago I was 350. A part of me wishes I was still 190 at 7%, but it is super hard for me to get that low. I just don’t have that kind of pain tolerance to deal with being light headed and hungry 24/7 while counting calories, eating constantly, but never meals or more than a few bites of dry salad or chicken. Without racing and riding like 400+ miles a week, I’m just not that kind of motivated. I’d much rather be lazy and eat meals with way too many calories at once but still far fewer than most people. I have no desire to binge or eat processed food of any kind any more. Avoiding dairy has also been super helpful too because that is a good excuse to avoid most junk people make, fast food, or restaurants the few chances I ever get.

The reason these areas are monetized is because wealth is inherited. This is not a meritocratic system. Business acumen is not hereditary. The only sure investment for the grossly incompetent is through exploitation. Limit inheritance to $100m max without any loopholes and you change the world.

Freeze all rent where it is now with legal forfeiture of unmaintained property to tenants when not maintained to standard. In a decade, housing will be affordable.

The halfwit rhetoric about workers not being competitive or wanting to work is propaganda garbage. The cost of living is due to corrupt mismanagement of banking, housing, and supply chains. The quality of life in a major Chinese city is far better than the USA. Propaganda focuses narratives about rural poverty in China when the exact same narrative is actually worse conditions in the USA in places like Mississippi, West Virginia, North Dakota, Wyoming, or New Mexico just to pick some random corners of low hanging fruit. There are around 700,000 feral subhuman primates roaming in the wild and disenfranchised, oppressed, and murdered by US core ethics, morals, politics, and culture.

Imbeciles claim this is some welfare state, when in reality there are many more feral humans than any time in the last few centuries. Those claiming it is a welfare state or those supporting that narrative never have balanced or researched sources. The spurious narrative is driven by mob-type populist stupidity.

No problems will ever get solved when people fail to adequately disconnect from the media vomit long enough to think for themselves and mull over their independent ethics to the point of actionable change.

Not even relevant. Kids are stupid about scope at this age regardless of location. Jersey would explain the perspective disproportion of the NYC stat, which is a major outlier in the set while fitting the rest of the patterns well. Fa get abo dit

You might be surprised about places other than SoCal and NY NY. Like growing up in Tennessee Alabama and Georgia, everyone seemed to have some affiliation. The level of engagement varied, but I never met someone that was an openly staunch atheist in real life. There is a deep stigma about such a thing in the South, - sadly. There, even extremists like Church of God are nominalized (screaming you’re going to hell for an hour, exorcism/miracle drama nonsense, mobbing behaviors, religious masochism).

It is likely one would need to be second or third generation removed from and religious social support network in a family unit before a person would truly answer atheist on such a poll. I don’t think many people grow to the point of self awareness to care to define an anti religious god certainty at this stage in human cultural evolution.

Walls are too thin for a bottle and with the cut for r&i I would expect it to have issues at the seam. Even with this, the seam requires holding until it starts to get touching contact. Maybe if the bottle is extended past the 45°-50° tangent it would do a little better but then it has drop potential, especially with this PC/ABS blend and no part fan in an enclosure.

Feels like they polled an elementary school in Philadelphia

Thanks so much. I did not know the original purpose of the profile. In my experience with 3d printing, the buttress profile strength is in the opposite orientation when printed vertically. The additional length of the tapered profile creates a better distributed load across more layers of the stretching member/fastener. Still, I will prioritize overall printability without supports over thread directional orientation in most cases. I’m usually using a very large custom sized thread where the thread strength is irrelevant.

Like here in my laptop GPU water cooler project, I am using a buttress thread and spline to retain the cooling block and pump.

Printing like this is a fun start on the path of thinking about what is possible.

In FreeCAD, there is Mark’s Thread Design workbench. That includes a thread profile called the buttressed thread. The profile has a print orientation where, if you print it vertical, the thread will not produce any overhangs, like if a normal thread profile is > a buttress thread is 7. Mark has a YT upload on how to use his workbench. It is pretty easy to follow and a simple one to use.

At the stage I’m at in design, built in clips can replace most hardware. If I’m using printed threads it is usually a very large thread with some thin sleeve like clearance. I like to build splines into my threads to also create locking elements in the same space.

There are transporter bots that admin configure to run in the background. These are what transport the likes and comments between instance servers. You are connected to one of these instance servers. LW has a large volume of interactions so some instances may limit how often or what is transported by the bots between servers. It is all done with activity hub protocol. Take a minute in a desktop browser to view the page source for Lemmy and you’ll better understand what is involved and how information is passed around. It looks like structured text. This is pretty easy to spot even if you are unfamiliar with code. You’ll likely understand why the message exists about DM not being private too, and maybe understand why blocking works poorly on Lemmy as that is pretty much implied.

If an instance defederates, what that actually means is that the admin is not allowing the automated background bots to carry activities between the two instances. Everything up to that point is already synchronized and does not go away.

Be you while you can and don’t let anyone stop you. It is a waste of energy to worry about things you cannot change including stupidity in other people. Live without regrets. One day, if the winds of fortune turn unfavorable in life, you will most value the times you were bold, the times you were true to yourself, and the times you were true for others. You only have one worst day to deal with. For all the rest you can brag to yourself “I’ve seen worse.”

When some punk kid threatens me on a bike trail these days I tell them “do you think you can hit harder than a Jeep Cherokee and Mitsubishi Montero, because I took on both of those but I’m still here and they were total losses.” My real emotional worst low was 3 flat tires in 40F rain at night with a headwind, when a 1:45 ride took over 3 hours. All the other miserables are not really memorable to me specifically because I only allow myself to hold onto the worst in mind. I’ve actually been hit twice badly by cars but by 7 cars in total. Now I’m physically disabled and kinda stuck lying down at home most of the time. Live your life like you could become me. You won’t regret being real to yourself. You will regret the opposite. It is just one bad day at worst.

It was much the same nearly 20 years ago too. My folks got their first house for less than $100k. I barely scraped by with my business painting cars around 04-06. I went back to it around 07 and did alright until used car lots flat lined for 3 months straight in late 08. I never recovered from the criminal shit the banks did to real estate and fucked the economy. I tried to gt a good job but stuff like an apprenticeship with a local Union had 3k+ applicants show up for 15 positions. I would have been 3rd generation and work my ass off but it did nothing. I did the Los Angeles Fire Department interview one time. They literally use the Long Beach convention center’s basement level to do the first two stages. The first stage had over 10k people show up to take the written test. I made it to the last 600, but they filtered on EMT experience and that cut me in the second to last before the fire academy. When I worked in the bike shops as a Buyer for a chain, everyone working there had a university degree but me. Such is life here. Nothing is made here so it is a race to the bottom. And this is as good as it gets in the USA. I have lived mostly in Alabama, Tennessee and Georgia but south of LA now. The rest of the country is much worse than here.
