Also fuck this website, it has one od those 3-redirect landing pages that stops you from using your back button.

This is a very good start. It will have limited effectiveness depending how exactly wet the filament is though, as the diffusion speed of water in plastic is low and it takes time to get the water actually out of the center to the surface to evaporate. The few minutes a filament sits in the inline dryer might be OK for surface moisture but will fail with wetter spools.

I think the ideal system would be to have a dry box that the heating unit and fan blow into, but then feed the filament out to the printer through a “stove pipe” that acts as the dry box exhaust. This way you’re still drying the whole spool over time but then get that “final blast” to ensure the surface is as dry as possible. Make sure to insulate all walls such that you reduce how much heat you lose as the air passes through.

Damn. Proton is doing a good job of stacking up W’s these days.

I’ve seen at 48 minutes.

Congratulations on your new fame… or your very good night’s rest

Long enough, given he had to deal with this state’s exceptionally whiny republicans for 2 years it’ll age you

Yes.

Diesel engines are heavy, usually being cast iron blocks to support the continuous high torque & high temperatures caused by towing and their very high compression ratios. This heavier weight on the steer tires wears tires and brakes faster. Gas trucks almost all have aluminum blocks now and are much lighter. This makes diesels usually require tires that are 1-2 letter load ratings higher than a gas truck, which is also additionally more expensive to buy.

Diesel engines also produce significantly more torque, and torque is what causes tire wear during acceleration if you beat on it or tow a lot (it’s a huge problem with EV’s right now).

Diesels are really nice and generally get better mpg than gas when towing, but their maintenance is more expensive and they are significantly more expensive to purchase in the first place. They take more oil, more tires, and nowadays require DEF that partially negates the fuel cost savings. Plus a lot of modern diesels seem to have consistent emissions equipment problems.
They’re amazing if you’re moving very heavy loads all the time or travel over mountain passes frequently, but at only 5000lb payload I think a large diesel is overkill in any other situation.

Hmmm, yeah I’d imagine chemistry would develop a specific handedness. It’s a bizarre thing to think about

If the kid likes photography, get him into model photography with scene setups. Build intricate nonsensical storylines as kids like to do and let it play out in photos. Easy bonding!

Idk where you’ve been, but they’ve been actively denouncing democracy since 2020 every chance they get. And continue to get elected by doing so.

Articles that will be immediately shot down by the Republican house majority and probably a few spoilers as well because they need to make it more obvious they want a real dictatorship.

Just don’t mind the complete removal of any democratic rule of law, human rights being stripped by the day, and the not so gradual descent into a theocratic dictatorship! The economy looks great!

one of the main reasons Republicans gave for voting against it was that they felt the proper venue for that was in the courts.

The courts that they knew they had stacked in their favor. That was always an intentional copout.

Rotating a 2d being in 3d space would be trippy and probably lethal. A 2d being would have it’s entire existence on a specific fixed 2d plane cutting through space- by rotating it, you’ve completely redefined the entire plane, and everything that the creature knew about and had built would be permanently lost.

It ain’t even late here. 7:30. I gotta finish dinner out first man

I don’t doubt that rental companies have been squeezed harder and harder on licensing costs specifically to drive them out so the publisher-owned services take over

It’d be cool if he transitioned to former rep

Absolutely. Don’t fuck with electrical.

Probably because it rarely worked in real life! It was especially harder if your party was travelling in the spring. River currents are strong as shit and there’s no way even oxen could stand strong enough to keep it from running away during strong spring snowmelt flows.
