Does anyone else remember that Josie supposedly has six toes on one foot, or was that just a false meme people were circulating?
I've always been a really big fan of PETG filament, but I had a spool of PLA filament that I forgot to return months ago and gave it a shot with just the default OrcaSlicer filament profile, and it made me realize that PETG filament is actually really hard to get down, at least in terms of precision tuning! And then I got thinking, why exactly did I pick PETG as my main filament? The biggest reason I picked PETG as my main filament is because it has better temperature resistance than PLA, but then I remembered PolyMaker HT-PLA exists, which various YouTubers have proven that it has even better temperature resistance than PETG, so I'm honestly thinking about switching my main filament to HT-PLA, especially now with it being on sale for Amazon Prime Day.
Does anybody have any opinions on HT-PLA as your main filament?
Hello, everyone. This is on an Elegoo Neptune 4 Plus that I haven't used in a couple of months, but I dusted it off, cleaned out any gunk in the lead screws and re-lubricated them, made sure the tiny screws om the lead screws weren't too tight, and made sure the X and Y belts were nice and tight, too. I dried a few spools of PETG in a dehydrator for 24 hours. The bed has been leveled and ABLed, and I used the Orca Slicer profile I've always used to print a few test cubes, and they all come our like this where they're fine on the X-Axis but have these lines sunken in on the Y-Axis.
I've already tried a bunch of things like calibrating flow rate, retraction, Z-hop, and pressure advance, but nothing seems to be working, so I'm suspecting it's a hardware problem not a slicer problem. Any suggestions on what I should check?
I checked in on them caught this screenshot of Josie looking like she saw a bliblie in the ceiling or something.
I totally forgot they did this, but I got a notification that my season pass auto renewed so I went to the site to cancel it before I forget AGAIN, and found this.
Are you guys actually watching it??? I tried to stick around a little, but I saw it live so it just doesn't have that same impact on me anymore.
"Aw, jeez Rick, I dont know about this!!!!" "For the love of! Just put the dang costume on, Morty! No ones gonna care!!!" "Aweee. Ok, Rick!"
(Sorry for the long read) Hello, everyone. So, about this time last year, I was taking care of a pregnant stray cat that was frequenting my backyard, and she just disappeared for a while, but then came back and basically abandoned her kittens with me some time in mid-October. I honestly dont know how old they are, they were old enough to be walking and climbing and hunting when they arrived. My plan was to put them up for adoption, but it was October and they were three black cats and a brown tabby and my mom heavily advised against it because it was the Halloween season and she was afraid someone was going to adopt and "do something bad" with them. Life got in the way, and I ended up just taking care of them as outdoor cats. I built them a big, heated shelter during the winter, I have beds for them in a doorless garage in my backyard, and so far I've TNRed three out of four of them and will be trying to catch the last one this week.
​
I love them, and I honestly wouldn't mind just taking care of them like this forever, but it pains me to know they're outside exposed to the elements. A few days ago, one of them got presumably stung by a wasp in the sole of his paw, and I took him to the vet where he kind of half-scolded me about not making them indoor cats. It's summer and this is in Texas, so right now it's mosquito season, we're going into the super hot season, and I wouldn't want them to go through another harsh winter, so if it's possible, I really would like to find homes and families that could keep them as indoor cats, and even more I would like to try to adopt them in pairs because they're super tight with each other and I wouldn't want to send them away alone.
​
They're all super friendly, they're actually even friendlier than my own indoor cat. They'll come and rub on my leg when I'm feeding them, they let me pet them and pick them up, and they're always just hanging out in my back porch, so I think they could still be reformed as indoor cats with a little bit of effort, but I really wanted to get your opinion on how to handle this situation, or if I should just keep them as outdoor pets since this is what they're used to?

Any input is appreciated. Thank you in advance!!!
Hello, everyone. So, to give you the full picture, I'm 30, I'm not married or have kids, and I'm still living with my parents, so frankly I don't have any financial responsibilities at the moment. I was also recently hired for a new position where I'm going to be making a pretty substantial amount of money, so I figured that right now, in my position in life, I should be investing as much as I can into these evergreen companies like Nvidia and Apple (and of course diversify into other companies) before I go into another stage in my life where I wont have as much excess as I do right now.
I do currently have an account with Robinhood where I have about $3k invested in various tech companies and another account with Gemini for cryptocurrency, but I wanted to ask you guys if there was another platform or method to invest in companies where I would be depositing, say, $1k to $2k every month? I've heard Kraken is pretty good and has options for both crypto and stocks, so if you guys vouch for it, I would find it preferable to close my Robinhood and Gemini accounts to have everything on just Kraken (of course with secure passwords and multi factor authentication enabled). This is in the USA/Texas just for reference, and one thing I'm kind of concerned about is withdrawal limits for in case I ever wanted to buy a house and needed to withdraw a significant amount.
Any input you may have for me would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!
