  • I see it as a shadow

  • From Wikipedia:

    First attested in this form around 1620 (referring to a “bedbug”), from earlier bugge (“beetle”), from Middle English bugge (“scarecrow, hobgoblin”)

    No way did it initially mean hemiptera, and it is awfully broad now, see https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bug noun def 4

  • Worms are bugs too. The word is incredibly broad. Just because science uses it narrowly doesn't make bug a word with a narrow meaning. Most of us aren't entomologists

  • My 3.5 AC 20 monk was on his last hit point but as one of the two most competent holder backers still moved to the front

    I was looking forward to a dirt nap, but we won

  • Double post

  • I ride a recumbent so stopping and chatting with other recumbent riders happens. One chap I chatted with had electrified his bike and was saying it was the only way he could still get out there and ride, the hills were too much for him otherwise. We're limited to 200W on a trigger operated e-bike here, so on most bikes that's just assist, so it's different to the American experience

  • My nearest park and ride is full every working day even now when some 40 to 60% of people have access to work from home (most of the population work for the government here) the park and ride carpark used to overflow into the suburban shop carpark next to it

    Anyway it's full because parking there costs about $8 a day (in the form of a return bus ride), and parking in the city or the parliamentary triangle costs $15 or more

  • I wouldn't want to be in my character's world, I'd want to be them here

  • Mine does magic that would be useful in the real world. Much sadness I'm not them

  • A few companies died, notably Enron

  • The problem most people have is the move that is impossible in a 3d Kline bottle - after you emerge from the orifice in the bottom you move onto the funnel, then into the bottle. You can only do that in 4d - or in experiential snapshots as you did. I'm sure there are animations that do it justice, but they would need to be 3d to do it well - it's hard to accurately represent 4d in 2d

  • I recently had this explained to me, terminal velocity is falling versus the force of the air pushing back on you, right? In vacuum you just keep accelerating, in atmosphere the air pushes back against you falling, limiting your speed

    That force follows the rule that force (of air pushing back) is equal to acceleration (9.8m/s/s) times mass

    So different weights fall at different speeds.

    Half of the replies to me when I said what you said were

    Idiot, f=ma

    Or similar

  • I think Bambu have their own solution and since they don't want their users using other brand filament they would be nuts to support an open standard

  • You obviously need to ID the spools and store values for all, the different hub weights aren't a big issue if the printer knows the length of its filament path, how much filament the spool started with, and how much filament has been consumed it can work out the hub weight

    Regularly changing filament fixes the problem of the load cell drifting, by allowing it to zero occasionally

    You could warn on low filament, or not enough for this print, but load cells aren't accurate enough to be certain about the last few metres, along with errors from cosmetic trimmed before feeding, or some is damaged and cut off, so I would still use the normal no filament sensors for stopping

    Not saying it's worth it compared to a software solution in the slicer

  • That's grass

  • The friends you met in the tavern in session zero

  • Nothing is lighter than hydrogen, so it should be filled with nothing

  • Em dashes are also used parenthetically
