Thanks, I hate it. I hate it BECAUSE I get it, to be clear. F’ing digits …

I see it now. Thanks for that.

Not enough information in this shot to be certain of that, right as you may be.

All good reasons to stay away from the Hue/Wyse branded WiFi bulbs(nvm that their colors suck). Also why those are less than half the price of the ones that require a hub. When the internet goes out, I can still control my hub-connected Hue bulbs, and some(but not all) of the various Bluetooth bulbs I own.

Original Hue bulbs are good shit, the best softwhite, yellows, and/or orange color-tones you can get on the market, but everything else is hit-and-miss IME.

If you like to read/study, its original Hue or Dumb bulbs. The rest is usually party/mood lighting at best, and the best deals for that are on the standalone stuff that comes with crappy remotes.

Congratulations, you’ve made chatting with the doc and nurse as they performed my vascectomy a truly pleasant memory. Like, anyone who meddles with my junk in the future HAD BETTER bring all the scalpels, forceps, and sutures. Drugs and manipulation alone ain’t cutting it.

Picture of a positive pregnancy test. She’s even being kind to him, and keeping all cards close to her chest. My point is that yes, all women know exactly how to be scary, they just find it cute when men confuse them for harmless.

For a long time, I’ve been disappointed any time going behind a waterfall didn’t drag me somewhere far away, or even just put me into a difficult-to-escape or even lethal trap.

I once tried to convince my family we should adjust feeding times to compensate. That was harder and less fruitful than just putting up with the dog’s non-sense for half the year.

If I had my way, the dog would have an auto-feeder set to give an appropriate amount of food a few times a day. The cats share a gravity feeder, but insist we look at it first thing in the morning, even though that’s almost never when it, or the water bowl, needs re-filled.

If the bearing were loose on the shaft, this would be a different conversation entirely.

If adjustment/refinement of the fit in the housing were out of the question, it shouldn’t be made out of plastic, but even in the world of metal-cutting machine tools, adjustment is often neccessary, and if a shim, spacer or set-screw does the job, its what is done.

Meanwhile, my own suggestion was, first, the upgrade kit.

Resin isn’t that cheap either. Then there’s shipping. That said, if shimming works for test-prints, it may work for this. Personally, I can’t believe there’s not a wedge-centering end-cap or set-screws for dialing in the centering of the bearing just-so, but I’m no expert on this printer.

Where’s the lie? Goddamnit, I want there to be even a shred of un-truth in this one. Meanwhile, Newsom just vetoed a sex-ed bill.

I tell yah, if the DNC had a “pay us to do something even remotely leftist” option, I might un-block some of their numbers.

Epoxy isn’t cheap, unless you have it on-hand already or buy in-bulk. So you can burn ten-or-so-dollars on an epoxy fix that might or might not work as desired, or $40 on an upgrade that should.

That said, are you sure the printer is otherwise in good working order? Have you tried shimming that bearing and running a test print?

40(35?) should be the bottom for skateboarding, and Pattycake recovers once one has or is trusted with kids.

Hell, a 16-17yo that’s still willing to play is god-teir older sibling, and the good ones only get cooler with age.

Unclear, but they are saying it will affect side-loaded apps, and no way to bypass with Developer Options, so I would assume so.

I mean, you made me look at it again myself, as the multi-part rar files on Usenet are still very much a thing. The allowable “article” sizes for binary content are larger than for text articles, but still too small for video or high-quality audio.

Pirated media(images, movies, ebooks, ROMs) uses binary posts, not text. There are different limits and retention policies for binary versus text articles, and most Usenet servers, particularly cheap or free ones, don’t host a lot of the categories a pirate would want at all.

Please don’t imply that all Usenet providers facilitate piracy.

Magical times before my own on Usenet.

Exactly this. I don’t need 1080P or 4k mp4 rips with 10bit audio, and I definitely don’t have the storage for it, but when that’s all that is seeding, its usually quicker to just download it and re-encode.

Downloading large files from Usenet was paid pretty early on. If the core functionality of Usenet is now paid, this is news to me.

For your second point, its not at all uncommon for previously-legit sites to go malicious. Age alone means nothing, nor does reputation after a few years.
