Removing hot refillable k-cups from machine

Hi. When I use my refillable K-Cups, they are pretty hot when the brewing is done. It's kind of uncomfortable removing them right away, but sometimes you need to do it, like if someone else wants to use the Keurig right away. So my question...

If you are removing a refillable K-Cup when it's hot, how do you do it?

Couldn't find an applicable flair, so just used Machine Question.

Screwed up messaging creator - help

I was trying to message a creator about his print file and an accessory I printed for it. I typed out a paragraph and hit return, thinking I could start a new paragraph. Instead, it sent the message. That was not good, because I had ended the first paragraph describing the problem without yet mentioning my solution. I tried to start a new message, but Makerworld only allows one message to a creator until the creator responds. I recalled the message, but I still couldn't type a new one. I doubt someone is going to respond to a message that was recalled and therefore can't be read. Any way out of this dilemma? I really want to contact him or her because I want to post my accessory as a model and want to discuss with him how to do it.

Post as a remix or something else?

Someone posted a model of a trash bin that attaches to your desk. They actually posted it in a few different sizes. I printed one size. I like it, but I was bothered by the fact that someone standing at my desk could see the trash in there. So I modeled and printed a lid that fits perfectly on the bin I printed. Now that I know it works, I'm going to adapt my lid for the other bin sizes.

Here are my questions: I would like to post the models for the lids on MakerWorld, and I would like people to know that it goes specifically with this other person's bin models. So...

  1. Would this properly be called a remix, even though I am creating an additional piece to use with the model rather than altering the model itself?

  2. If a model says no remixes allowed, does that apply if I'm just creating a piece to go along with the model rather than altering the model itself?

  3. If it is a proper remix, do I include both the files for the original bin and the lid in my posting, or do I just post the file for the lid and post a link to the models of the bin?

  4. If it's not a proper remix, how should I post it in that case? Just a link to the original model, or some other way?

What toys do you just keep transforming?

Someone asked what toys you just don’t transform. Let’s do the other side of the coin. What toys do you keep grabbing to transform again and again? Doesn’t need to be every day per se, but whatever you might consider pretty frequently. One you think is really fun to play with and hard to resist when you see it.

My current one is SS AOE Optimus. I have a lot of figures scattered around my living room, but I don’t pick them up too often. But whenever this OP is out (he’s put away at the moment), I have to transform him. And I’m not the only one. A few of my sons just love transforming him too. When I got him, I honestly thought I was going to end up returning him. I’m so glad I didn’t!

Convert Ender 3 v2 into ???

We (my son and I) have an Ender 3 v2 that we don't use because we always had trouble 3D printing with it. We gave up and bought another brand's plug and play CoreXY printer. But we want to do something with our Ender, since there's little value in selling it. I've read that you can convert it into either a CoreXY printer or a CNC router. Those sound nice, but before we choose, we're wondering what else you might be able to convert an Ender 3 v2 into. For example, can you convert it into a laser engraver? Anything other type of machine?

Archer’s mom

I used to watch Archer, but then I lost access to cable and couldn’t get it on streaming. I just saw an Archer meme that made me think about the show. Then I remembered a question I had but never asked:

How did the show deal with the death of the voice actor for Archer’s mom? Did they just continue with another voice actor without acknowledging a change? Did they have a plot point to explain a voice change? Did they kill off the mom in the show? Did they do something else?

Is there any way to improve the performance of the stock camera that comes with the Bambu P1S? I really don't want to replace it, but if some tweaking can be done so that it's not choppy, that would be great.
