I dunno, if it were Hbomberguy talking about YouTube plagiarism for four hours I’d watch it.

Hank Green did a great video about this on his channel recently.

Like Mary’s bolt-on fake tits.

Along with all the other examples listed here:

The Bear

Also wtf is the “Abused child forgive abusive parent and reunite happily ever after” trope, fuck that shit. Abusers do not deserve forgiveness.

No, but depending on circumstances and the work the abuser is willing to put into changing themself and making things as right as they can, forgiveness can be earned.

Important thing to remember about the “console wars.”

Other than the Nintendo Wii (iirc), most consoles sell at a loss at the beginning of the generation. They eventually turn a profit on console sales, but console sales aren’t the point.

Game sales are.

When each console was its own very specific architecture and games needed to be designed specifically for them, console sales matter a lot because that’s how you’d sell games.

But now that architectures are similar (if not the same), cross-compilation has become easier than ever. It’s why you see Sony finally releasing first party titles on PC.

Microsoft knows full well that their console sales aren’t great, but that’s okay for them. Their PC sales are. Many of their titles sell on Steam. And they sell some of their titles on PlayStation.

They’ll continue to make some form of console because without it they lose out on millions of Game Pass subscriptions from people who don’t want to make the initial investment in a gaming PC, or deal with the complexity, but their goal of making that next console more and more like a PC fits perfectly in their model.

It’s a shame the Series X has sold so poorly, it’s a great console, but I doubt Microsoft is too worried about “losing” the console wars to Sony. The game has changed.

It was fun. Extremely formulaic and predictable, but enjoyable. A lot of the race strategy stuff was bullshit, but it kinda had to be, the sport itself is too complicated to have silver bullets (though there are silver arrows).

Also the cinematography was really cool. It captured so well how damn quick an F1 car is.

Not a great movie, but worth seeing if you like Formula 1.

That whole part of the episode bothered me. Walk-in doors are fail-safe, not fail-secure. If the handle is broken, you can still open it from inside.

(But as a story mechanic it was 👨‍🍳💋, so I can forgive it. Artistic liberty and all that.)

the end being neigh and all

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him, and the horse said, “the end is neigh!”

(Neigh is what a horse says. The end is nigh. 😉)

Thanks!

Xenoblade Chronicles, especially 2 and 3 in my view.

And Halo, obviously.

Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps.

God of War (2018) and Ragnarok.

If you haven’t played It Takes Two (same developer) I highly recommend it. I liked it even more!

I liked Split Fiction, but It Takes Two was better. I hope for more good things from the developer in the future!

Enclosure makes printing some plastics much easier/safer, and it’s become common/inexpensive enough to be a “default” option, especially with options like the Carbon being so affordable.

But the tool has to fit its purpose. If you only print PLA/PETG, then it’s not really necessary. I mostly leave the door off my printer, and only attach it when I need to print ASA or ABS.

I might be seeing it wrong, hard to tell from just this perspective, but could it be placed so the entire side, or entire back, is making contact with the bed? Increasing your contact surface can help dramatically as I said in my other reply.

Check your bed adhesion (clean the bed with detergent and hot water, and I recommend a quick wipe with 91% IPA before each print) to prevent the model rotation seen in this picture, but in general parts with that little bed contact can be difficult to print correctly. If you can’t find an orientation that fits on the bed with more surface area, then slow the print down to minimize forces pushing the print. While supports help, they don’t hold onto the print as firmly as the bed does (on purpose).

I’ve run into some frustrating issues with small contact points with print beds. Another option is to use a smooth PEI plate and use a glue stick or Bed Weld or something to help improve adhesion.

The Pandora section of Animal Kingdom is pretty cool, especially at night. And the Flight of Passage ride is incredible, a very easy suspension of disbelief once you’re on the “banshee” and feeling it breathe beneath you, and the wind and the spray of water as you fly.

Say what you will about Disney, they know how to make a theme park experience.
