Without giving it any specific thought, ditching over deep water assuming it has big chutes designed to slow it, you've now got a capsule that'll hit the water at a reduced speed, falls vertically so an asymmetric touchdown won't rip the aircraft apart and a built in life raft to keep the passengers safe until help arrives.

Really? They did a ton of work to make Linux accessible to the masses, have an active and helpful community to help out if you get stuck, works really well out of the box on most hardware and you're pretty much guaranteed there's going to be a compatible deb available for it if you're looking for software outside normal repos. Seems like a no brainer tbh.

Is that on her onlyfans then?

You're surprised the most popular desktop distro is still around?

It just seems like there aren't any cause they're all silent!

Not to put too fine a point on it, I think you'll find that cunts are one of the more frequently tapped markets.

As time goes on I realise that terrorists do in fact win a lot of the time and sustained campaigns of violence do in fact achieve their goals in a lot of cases. Which is fucking depressing.

More me being nosy than anything, I was thinking I've not seen much from GreatAlbatross or Emperor in a while and noticed Emperor hasn't posted in 6 months or so and Albatross is no longer listed as an admin. (If you've departed folks, thank you for everything - you resurrected feddit.uk when all hope was lost!)

Does that mean flamingos is the only active admin? Is there a backup plan if (heavens forbid) flamingos gets hit by a bus?

Also just generally curious if there's any instance news or plans going forward.

First one done, everything seemed to work, assembly was relatively straightforward and the instructions were great.

Changes - buffer tubes were printed separately with variable layer height in Orca, I've read this helps feeding filament, settings:

Adaptive height 0.08, radius 4.

Triangle Lab kit only seems to come with long springs for the buffer tube, so you'll be building the long stroke version. I wasn't aware there were multiple versions so no loss. They are on the BoM though, so hopefully it saves someone else having to scour the instructions to see if the "missing springs" are needed.

I think I'll try printing the housings for the next one with support, some of the overhangs are a bit misshapen and had to be cleared out with a drill bit. This may still bite me further down the line when I need to fit the module to the base.

It seems like it shouldn't be too difficult to take apart if necessary.

I'd think about bending the solder tabs on the motors before soldering as well, it's a bit of a squeeze inside the housing and it's harder to bend them after.

Hopefully I'll get a second housing printed this week and at least another module assembled at the weekend.

I've just taken a quick look, I've not checked off the BOM yet, but motors, boards, PTFE tube and a collection of parts have arrived. There's a bit of a description/warning sheet and a link to a Google drive with it too. Will check out some more over the next couple of days.

I've seen the BMCU mentioned a few times as an alternative for the Bambu Lab AMS, given the price I'd like to give it a go with my P1S but, I've seen comments elsewhere that it should work, but YouTube is surprisingly light on BMCU content and I was wondering if anyone in the community has one before I take the plunge?

Look Richard no matter how many times you post this, no-one is going to start calling it GNU/Linux.

Not a USer, what I find utterly bonkers is seeing clips of them discussing the dark Brandon conspiracy on fox news, like it's real and relevant political discourse. Wtaf is wrong with that portion of you population.

Rental has its place, there have been plenty of occasions in my life where rental suited me better than ownership. Regulation and enforcement of said regulations would do a lot to protect people in this situation.
