I don’t have many exes, but I always hope they’ll be successful in all the cool stuff that they do. Definitely same goes here!

Now the real quandary is, what are the ethics of looking at your exe’s OnlyFans? Do you ask them first? Is it weird?

I spent several years intermittent fasting, only eating between 6pm and 10pm. I didn’t do it for my teeth but it did help keep them much cleaner, probably obvious in retrospect. It’s not a healthy diet in a lot of other ways though.

Do you think there's better ways to fediverse?

Personally I think that if there was like a central link/front end to access everything and then have each user be able to have a recommended list of instances/hosts to access would be a more user friendly solution and a better solution for search engines. I know the fediverse is about decentralization but having a central front...

Cura's Slicing Tolerance setting finally got a part to work (support.makerbot.com)

I have been trying to print a print-in-place planetary gear without any luck. Today I found out about a setting that finally got it to print.

This is one of my favorite features to introduce to people, definitely a game changer. The only thing is, when working with other people’s models, I usually don’t know if they’ve already included any additional tolerance or how much.

Check your local library to see if they have a large format photo printer, it’s often cheaper than you’d pay elsewhere. Then, print a poster sized portrait of Alfonso Ribeiro to hang up.

I work in a library, and I’m sad to say this sort of thing has been going around for a while… Our board (a bunch of ghoulish rich retired business men) wants us to call people “customers” instead of “patrons”, and is looking for ways to charge them money.

What quality PLA filament brand have you standardized on?

Here’s the same comparison with the html5 target, in Chrome. I think it might be something to do with size of the game vs the size of the window? in Main.hx I have the game set to 320×240, and in Project.xml I have the window set to 640×480. I’m thinking when ScaleMode scales the game up to fit in the window, the font just scales really poorly?

Where I live, back when I got my driver’s license, there was always a several months long queue to take the driving test. When my turn came, there was a terrible blizzard. I knew I should just cancel it and wait several more months, but I didn’t do that. It ended in several injuries and a totalled car.

MxRemy,
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

Actually I totally did! The terrible wreck happened on the way home. Real rollercoaster of emotions, that day was

MxRemy,
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

That sounds lovely! I’m not sure how common it is here, since not many people I know in the U.S. have ever had a driving instructor. They exist, but most people I know just learned from family or friends.

I had no idea that what happened to me is so common, that’s honestly a bit of a relief.

I like getting “worked on”, I guess you could say? Like… I like going to the dentist, for example. Anything that kinda hurts but is for my own good, and involves just staying still on a chair/table while somebody else takes care of it.

Thanks, this was really informative! I’ve only been on the viewer side of Peertube, but I’m a fan for sure. From that perspective, another thing is that I really wish there was a better app for it. Thorium hasn’t been updated in ages, and it’s super glitchy.

I went with spectra.video, but my subscriptions are allllll over the place. I have roughly the same approach to choosing an instance on every platform:

  • Not the flagship instance or one that’s similarly huge.
  • Not one that’s miniscule either.
  • Running as close to the latest version of the software as possible.
  • Then and only then do I start comparing rules, cool content, etc.

Does anyone have a habbit of deadnaming themselves in their head

I keep saying my deadname in my head, this kinda started a bit after a family gathering where I heard my deadname a ton. This was in may and sometimes I will just say my deadname in my head and it feels wrong, it also kinda makes my real name feel a little wrong, even though I know it’s not and I like the name skylar

MxRemy,
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

Maybe it’s different for different people, but for me I think it’s like this:

If you can deadname or misgender yourself in your head, that means it was a thought in third person perspective. If I’m having a thought in third person perspective, it’s usually in the context of someone else talking about me. Like, imagining a coworker tell someone a story about me, or something.

In such a scenario, I find that I deadname or misgender myself if I think that’s how other people see me, not because that’s how I see myself. Like if other people have been deadnaming or misgendering me a lot.

This on buildings with plants

I have worked in building maintenance and repair. One thing that is extremely hazardous to a concrete building is too much water.

I’ve been on Pxlmo and I love it there so far, except for some reason I’ve never been able to get video posts to work. That’s probably just user error though.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, I’ve also been using it as an image host for posting pictures here! I kinda figured that, since Pixelfed is literally designed for picture sharing, it might be better at handling all those files? Hopefully?

Does your major in college really matters?

I’m in my last year of college and for some reason, I decided to design my own major, and I feel like I made a mistake, I’m looking at jobs RN and feel like no employer is going to understand it at all. And that I don’t really have much in demand skills? (FYI - it’s a BA in community development, so kinda like urban...

I dunno but… For comparison, I have a B.S. in Computational Mathematics with a minor in Physics, and I have never once actually used it for anything. My current job required a degree but not specifically that degree. It is ostensibly one of the those useful, in-demand majors, but I couldn’t find many job opportunities for it that applied to me, or that I actually wanted… So honestly your path sounds MUCH MUCH better to me, personally. Plus your major sounds way cooler.

Hopefully this kind of content is ok here. Up until recently, when I would be searching for some kind of technical info, the top (and best) results would usually all be Reddit posts. I was very pleasantly surprised to do that this time and find a Lemmy post instead!...

Home Carbonation Setup - What is this connection on the left! (lemmy.one)

Hi DIY punks! I need a little help with something. I’ve been trying all sorts of ways to home carbonate things as sustainably as possible. Most have not really worked out as intended, but I’m really really close on this latest attempt. This version is to connect a CO2 tank to a whipped cream dispenser....

MxRemy, (edited )
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

I think you’re right! Rather than find some kind of NPT to UNF adapter and throw yet another (potentially leaky) connection into the mix, I’m going to try replacing the “8mm male quick disconnect to 3/8 UNF female” with a “8mm male quick disconnect to 3/8 NPT female”. Specifically this one, I think. Wish me luck. an thank you!!

EDIT: Or maybe this one.

MxRemy,
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

That would explain the nut looking thing, right? Does it being a compression fitting matter insofar as the specific type of thread/diameter is concerned? I don’t really know anything about them, but a cursory Wiki skimming makes them seem complicated and delicate. Could I have potentially messed it up at all by removing it from the TR21-4 it was originally screwed into? It was quite hard to remove.

MxRemy,
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

Oh I definitely have like zero idea what I’m doing, but hopefully I’ll learn a thing or two in the process lol. I will definitely be picking up some Nylog White, thanks!

So, the 3/8 turned out to be WAYYY too big! I was just kind of naively taking it on faith because the listing said that’s what it was… I think it’s actually 1/8 instead? We’ll see once the new part arrives. Shame on me for trusting a thumbnail from AliExpress over, you know, a ruler 😅

MxRemy,
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

UPDATE: So the 8mm male quick disconnect to 1/8 NPT female adapter worked! Everything now hooks up to everything else just fine. Unfortunately, there’s a new problem.

I have no idea how the gas valve built into the isi Whip works, but this hookup doesn’t seem capable of pushing any CO2 through it! Everything else works, there’s no leaks, and gas can make it all the way through the hose and out the end. But as soon as I screw it onto the isi’s gas hookup, it can’t get through. There’s a video of an isi disassembly here that shows what the valve looks like inside, but I can’t tell much from it. Clearly this thing is some sort of one-way valve, since gas doesn’t escape when you remove a CO2 cartridge… But what’s so special about a cartridge that my janky hookup doesn’t match?

As far as I can tell, nothing in the mechanism budges when you push on it. I don’t think it’s being mechanically opened by screwing the cartridge in. Is it possible that it just requires the explosive amount of pressure released by a punctured CO2 cartridge before it’ll open? I’ve been feeding it 30 PSI. Some quick googling tells me that 8g cartridges usually release 850 to 1100 PSI. Should I just try cranking up the pressure until something happens? I think the problem then becomes, there’s substantially more than 8g of CO2 in my tank… What happens then?

Now, I’ve since stumbled onto this post about just straight up removing the built-in gas hookup and replacing it with a sanke to ball lock conversion kit. That seems like it might be way better than the approach I’ve been using, and I wish I had seen it earlier!

Hiii cute trans people, my name is valentine, but it doesn't sound good with my last name at all, so I was wondering if you can help me find a full name that sounds cute. (lemmy.ml)

I don’t really plan to use it on legal documents yet (it is a nightmare to legally change my legal name in my country), but it might sound better online and to introduce myself. I would appreciate suggestions uwu.
