Kobra neo, a cheap printer to begin with. The y axis rail is extruded aluminum. Where they drilled the holes in the middle to attach it to the frame it pushed the aluminum out by a few thousands. Adjusting the carriage is either really tight in the middle of the rail or loose on the ends. The bed was also bent when I got it (common issue). I bent it back and added bed adjusters because otherwise the auto need leveling just couldn’t compensate. It broke a y belt (common issue). It still has issues printing. I cannot get it to print petg at all even though the same roll of filament will work fine on another printer. All in all I wish I never bought the thing due to their poor quality control. It still prints PLA good enough so I keep it around because I wouldn’t get anything if I try to sell it.

After having had an Anycubic printer, I would be extremely hesitant to buy one based on the quality of the one I have.

I actually hate Chicago suburbs because of the regressive property tax in Illinois. All schools are funded by local property taxes. That means that people in lower wage areas have to pay a much higher percentage of their income in taxes overall. It also means that rich suburbs get well funded schools while avoiding their own fair share. Illinois also has a regressive flat income tax, also benefiting rich people.

They call it duct tape because it sounds like duck tape which is the name brand. If it’s labeled duct tape then it’s just the generic version. Actual duct tape is foil tape or mastic.

At the time it would have been worth it to pick up a lot of games over an expensive pc. I’m not sure I would go out of my way to buy one today since most of the good games are on pc and can play on a pc without a gpu. If you find one for $20 at a garage sale then I would probably get it if you’re into collecting games.

I’m so glad that he showed some games that aren’t shooters/sports or pc games. I found there’s a combo Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts / Viva Pinata that I decided to pick up. I’ve had a 360 collecting dust that I picked up cheap years ago and never really played it. I’ll probably pick up a few more games for it if I find them for cheap.

I have zero trust installing pirated software, especially when they go out of their way to break it when using wine on Linux or running it in a vm.

That’s genius

Quantum mechanics is made up because physicist can’t figure out math.

creamed corn!

I don’t think most people notice the performance difference when it comes to fps or even resolution unless things are stuttering or slowing down. I definitely think value is something to consider, especially because most people play games that don’t require high performance.

I’m just saying that you can build a decent pc for $100-$300 with older components or even just use a laptop. That’s why the average hardware is so much lower. The steam machine is estimated to be around $750.

ICE stands for Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

I put together a minimum spec pc for $100, so it depends on how much better it is for me. HP Z240 office machine plus an rx480 8gb.

It sounds like he just needs one of these

After having stability issues with Ubuntu I switched to fedora. It just works. If you need to install something with the terminal just Google how to install program fedora and you’ll find some simple commands to copy and paste. Just make sure you understand what you’re inputting.

Stand up first

If a dog is jumping up on you then you should put your knee up and they’ll stop. It’s a good way to train dogs not to jump up on people.

I wouldn’t equate installing proxmox on an old pc to open heart surgery. It’s pretty basic stuff and you can follow guides on how to install services in a container or vm. People are interested in things like pihole, home assistant, arr stacks, nas, and better control over their network. It’s definitely not rocket surgery.

I wish they would say what platform instead of just “darknet”
