  • There may not be etiquette, but there’s certainly equestriette.

    I’ll see myself out now…


    From what I know, female animals “show” when they’re available. This can be through pheromones or some sort of behavior. But if the animal kingdom equivalent of the basement dweller “nice guy” comes along, they can get away relatively easily.

    Caveat: This stipulate that the male doesn’t have the ability to grab.

    Source: I loosely remember a natural geographic documentary about some deer-like creature in sub-saharan Africa. I would think horses are similar.

    Also, the word you’re looking for is “mare”

    I happened to be watching the print camera when a nut suddenly dropped onto the print sheet. Luckily it’s just a short test print, so it gets to complete the current job.

    If I’m not mistaken, it’s one of the nuts holding the X rail in place. Time to do some tightening I guess.

    UPDATE: It was actually from the top vent cover. These nuts are intentionally left somewhat loose for the vent to open/shut easily. Not critical, but I need to get some locktite on there.






  • What’s the budget? There are many good ones in many price categories, so if you have a figure in mind, that helps narrow it down.

    Personally I’m a big fan of my Prusa Core One. It’s fun to build and it hasn’t left me wanting, plus there are many upgrade options available. It’s also pretty open in terms of software, as opposed to certain other manufacturers which seem to be going for a walled garden approach.







  • That is A LOT of sequels/remakes. I probably don’t need to state my opinion on franchise recycling, as everyone has heard it all before from someone far more literate and irate than I.

    Looking forward to Project Hail Mary, though. While I’m of the typical opinion that movie adoptions rarely hold up, I am cautiously optimistic about this one for some reason.

    Oh, and I’ll probably watch the Paw Patrol sequel in the theater with some of my kids.
