Not even a little. I went out in shorts and a t-shirt for about an hour, exchanged banal pleasantries with family until my anxiety got the better of me and I had to leave, sat in a room with no windows watching old shows and snacking, and am waiting until exhaustion allows me to sleep a couple hours until I go to work on one of the two days remaining on my schedule. After that I might not have any work for months unless I can find something close by that doesn't make me legitimately contemplate things. I have a broken tooth, some kind of respiratory thing going on, and an unmentionable medical issue that really needs to be seen by a doctor but I can't afford one and my government insurance was denied because I made a couple thousand more this year than last year.

On the bright side, my truck is finally working again and assuming the now-slowly-leaking-while-on fuel pump doesn't catch a spark before I can afford to have it replaced I don't have to share a car this week. Which is nice.

"while not criminal"

Hmmm. Making threats? Of a political nature in order to coerce change?

In my neck of the woods, we call that "domestic terrorism", but they freely admit that to the world:

V'Ger? ominous noises in the background

Having owned a couple low end printers, the ender 3 is my favorite budget option.

I've installed a couple upgrades, some of which I 3d printed on the printer itself, but my favorite ones are the borosilicate glass bed with a thermal pad to help spread out the heat quickly, and a dual z axis stepper motor.

If you're not into tinkering, I've heard good things about Bambu, although I do not know much about them myself. Apparently they're more user-friendly.

I enjoy working on my devices, but I would like something with more reliability than "recalibrate everything for every single print" sometimes.

It really is a hobby where spending just a little bit more will get you a ton of extra features and user experience.

Who said she's not also an atheist? The woman was just outside the mall crying, the person who "found $200" is the one who is praising a god.

Lol the people arguing about "evidence" and "investigations" are completely missing the real point, IMO.

If you or I were up on these charges, investigation, trial, and sentencing would be carried out in less than a month without hesitation or issue as far as the government is concerned.

The ONLY reason it's taking longer than that is because of who it is.

Full stop.

"hey let's release the same thing over and over again, charge almost full game price for it, and whenever something new comes out, just delete everything they've already paid for."

"hey why aren't people continuing to buy our game..."

Yeah. Great mystery, that one.

Bungie will never get another dollar from me.

I've checked for the Azure Gate Bridge and whether green lights mean go, and so far I don't think we Slid anywhere but keep your eyes peeled.

From a certain point of view, you are 100% correct.

From a different point of view, he's a person with meat and blood held together with a fleshy bag thing, and propped up by calcium sticks. Or "inefficient bag of mostly water" if you wish.

Not everybody is useful. Every body can be good fertilizer.

Fertilizer for a field.

As someone who has moved several free pianos and now tells people I will drive it but loading and unloading is on them....

They all sound like complete shit.

The piano is free, making it sound good isn't.

But then, most people just have a piano for decoration.

As someone who never planned on playing Balatro, and was kind of getting tired of seeing it on my feed the way I got tired of helldivers 2 stuff right after release.

I would happily toss a tenner to the dev for a lawyer over this.
