First off, thank you for that write up. Would you mind sharing your opinion on 1x on trump and 6x justices simultaneously? At that point it’s a coup or a culling, but it’s a very loaded gun I don’t want to hand to anyone.

After you get your replacement lens, you can also try putting a drop of resin and wiping it away. In theory the resin should fill the crack with a transparent material and the heal the blemish. Then you “buff it” by removing excess liquid before it cures. But as others mentioned there is coating and more specifically glass treatment that may cause issues, but that’s the process for auto class repair (they usually drill out a hole around it first to prevent further spreading but that sounds worse here). Those kits can be pretty cheap

It’s a dietary supplement that helps memory. I think they are implying that Europe needs help remembering.

Modeling: YouTube is helpful here search for AutoCAD (computer aided design), mid journey actually has an unreal render I hope to export soon and ai is getting better and better at generation.

Buying a printer: 2 main categories plastic and resin. Plastic is easier, larger scale, generally printed in pla petg or abs each with their own qualities. Resin is generally smaller and more precise(read jewelery minis), and requires requires UV treatment/chemicals to cure.

Early recommended printers: (plastic) ender or prusa. Ender will be more maintenance and give you better tuning/control, prusa will be more expensive and work a bit better out of the box.

Material: highly recommend just starting with pla and when you figure out the basics, you can change materials. The other ones will last longer and survive longer, but 3d printing has a learning curve. PLA is a good introduction

First print: download the STL or model of a benchy, it may be tempting to print something cool first, but this is a tool that needs calibration. Benchies have specific dimensions to print angles, rings, platforms, bridges ect). Go download software of choice, 3 years ago that was Cura. Load the STL file and you can click around, but I don’t recommend changing much. PLA prints well around 200*, I liked to add 2-4 extra layers of “shell” for durability, hollow support TREES are fantastic for overhanging ledges - NO COLUMNS!!, 20% infill means it will be mostly hollow but print quick and have some structure. Cura would default to the most geometrically sound pattern (honeycomb). A raft will put a grid down first to stabilize, it helped day 1, but got in the way later. .

Follow a youtube guide on leveling your specific printer, when the print fails, lookup what went wrong here: https://www.simplify3d.com/resources/print-quality-troubleshooting/

3d printing is a lot of work, plastic deteriorates over time, but you can do a ton of cool stuff. I recommend finger surfboards, organization kits to start and the replica jet engine is a right of passage.

Unless you played sports

You can prevent downtime by mirroring your container repository and keeping a cold stack in a different cloud service. We wrote an loe, decided the extra maintenance wasn’t worth the effort to plan for provider failures. But then providers only sign contracts if you are in their cloud and you end up doing it anyways.

Unfortunately most victims aren’t using best practices let alone industry standards. The author definitely learned the wrong lesson though.

even with all the new creative shows

Imho this is actually the problem. I maintain a 168tb media server and I didn’t even know about iron fist. Didn’t they announce they have to remake daredevil and punisher now? Groot mini series was one of many cash grabs. Wanda vision was good but super short and completely derailed SW redemption arc. Loki was amazing but too complicated for most of the fan base. Non fanatics are looking at the series as oh there’s another one?" The formula hasn’t changed much and its hard to get Karen’s and Kyles to care about the other other other ironman. Jonathan Majors ruined the next big bad and killed continuity. Not to mention the team is burnt out, Disney demands a lot from its workers and the marvel IP is built on the sweat and blood of a ton of professionals that are tired. They worked hard to make infinity war happen for years, then Disney demanded they churn out D+ garbage. Ideas take time and infinity war was an ambitious project, quality is going to suck for a while.

I actually think this backfires on most of you. Copyright law makes everything public domain after a period of time, Johnny Fires kids will be able to trade for all the first professionals in the world. But Life +70 years after currency is invented, anyone can print cash and trade falls apart and services and materials are the only thing if value. Copyright laws broken :shrug:
