yeah. nobody ever gets anything done after lunch on fridays.

It's like a rule or something.

And those idiot managers that schedule meetings on fridays get dumped in the river. that's also a rule.

Have you considered finding events at your local public library?

they may not have anything necessarily furry related, but mine at least has a lot of incredible events and social meetings. Yours probably has something that piques your interest.

What you're looking for is a "Third Space"- and libraries are a great third space.

alright. So.

I gotta ask....

how high are you (were you?)

also, just to actually answer the question, if it's played as an instrument, it's an instrument. Anvils have been instruments (See that thing in Andor. that's an instrument.) Saws, too. Wine glasses. (both, by playing the rim, as well as breaking them as a sort of percussive instrument.). Even your desk when you're bored out of your skull waiting for that one email to come in so you can do your job. (rapatap tap, smack rapatap tap, thunk.)

probably would have gotten himself excommunicated like that archbishop did, if only he could get off the damn couch.

It's a shitty beard... and real men don't base their worth off beards anyhow.

Somebody remind me.

When does this fucker get sentenced again? I'll need to order plenty of popcorn a head of time.

Without knowing specifics of the incident, I would suggest you not discount the possibility.

people get incredibly stupid when they panic, kids included, and there may not have been an immediate awareness of their family getting injured; and when your panicking and you don't know how to handle a firearm, it's not outside the realm of plausible that multiple shots get fired- even when we're talking about adults.

I'm not saying the kid wasn't abused. I'm not saying it wasn't with some intent. I am saying there's a not insignificant chance that the confession was the result of cops and detectives trained to extract confessions, by using some extremely manipulative methods, from a kid who is almost certainly scared and traumatized. traumatized whether he meant to do it or not.

FTA:

"We still got to put some puzzle pieces together," the chief told ABC News. "The city can rest easy knowing that the suspect is off the street of a double homicide, but there's also the shock factor."

Job done as far as their concerned.

Or just a kid playing with unsecured firearms. I wouldn’t expect a child to give coherent answers after their parent and grandparent just died in front of them; never mind after accidentally shooting them.

It could be something more, but the weapons were unsecured any how.

that's a big cannon. can we instead just send her up that way on the boeing starliner?

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago

So why put in all the effort to make it perfect?

because pissing off the judge with a filing you're not even allowed to file is a great way to lose future decisions too. The absolute most basic part of their job is to advise their client on proper court procedures- and to comply with them. If they can't even do that much... they're totally incompetent.

His lawyers are truly the best- that he can afford.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 36 points 5 days ago

This is why it's important to lock him the fuck up and make sure it sticks.

He's going to have people lined up and shot regardless if he has to do another insurrection or not. best make sure he can't do that.

Due to reasons... I've "adopted" a CR10s that a friend had bought. It was used, and was already well on it's way to being a janky Printer of Theseus. My hope is to get it up and running and put through it's paces before the holidays so I can give it back as a gift.

With the linear rail upgrades, I picked up the hardware and it's on it's way; which got me looking at how to do the upgrade, which I have mostly figured out; the question I'm having is, most upgrades seem to place the rails on 2020 extrusions sitting on top of the base frame- same as how the original y axis 2040's were designed.

Which raises the question- why not lower it so the 2020 rails are even with the frame, with the mgn12 rail sitting on top? Like so:

The short answer I came to is this would necessitate replacing the brackets for the y stepper motor and it's idler; but it should be possible. the easiest solution would be something like:

which raises the question: are printed parts rigid enough to hold against the tension on the belts? The motors can't handle too much tension anyhow, and the printer already has the screw-cap tensioners for x and y printed that seem to have been holding up well.

has anybody replaced the OG metal bracket on the back? does it stress and need replacing often, or is it fairly reliable (and above all, consistent,)

I mean, like incompetent. For the record those organs I just stole? literally on the desk in front of him. Time to hike on over and sell it. To the Trade Authority.... all 20 feet away...

Which do you use and why? Which one gets it cleaner. If it matters we have “real” winters here, meaning snow cruft and salt that absolutely must be removed.

Edit to clarify: I’m talking about a choice in automated car washes- not hand washing cars. Seems people are getting confused. Touchless is a few passes with a pressure washer. Soft touch adds spinning car-wash brush things.

Lockouts save lives

Usually idiots, but sometimes we’re all idiots.

Okay, so, with structural modules- specifically the cowl/belly/hull modules you can slap in... aside from the trivial gains to hull, are they basically just for attachment points/decoration?

could i protect things that can be targeted- the weapons, shields, engines, and grav drive- by placing 'under' hull components? or does that just not matter?
