It's not that bad of one.

It's still putting their lives at risk, and they're still people. Many of the people in that prison haven't even been sentenced yet and are awaiting trial, meaning just because they're there doesn't make them a guilty criminal. Think about it, would you want to be stuck on an island locked in a small ass cell with nothing in the middle of a hurricane...?

This reminds me of shutter island, but they didn't abandon them...

honestly a prison is the safest place to be during a hurricane, that is if you can't evacuate.

Ever since Katrina people have been spazzing out abut everything, a tropical storm is nothing to be worried about, even a category 3 is iffy.

Katrina itself wasn't too out of the ordinary. The levee's breaking was the issue.

My sister is supposed to video tape it for me. I wish I was there this week. An Earthquake AND a storm + uninhabited New York = Kite flying in Times Square

If thats the case, I agree 100% with you. However, all I know is what I'm told via News and Ear-to-Ear, because I'm west coast. :p

I don't blame you, the media is exaggerating the shit out of it. NYTimes maps however, have shown the whole time (2 or 3 days ago) that it would go down to tropical storm by the time it hit NY. Other media stations never mentioned any of that, or maybe their shitting mapping tech didn't plan its trajectory correctly.

We just had to fly in six C-17s (our "mid-size" planes) from one of the bases up north down here with all of heir mobility crap on it, had to come in on a Friday night and work 6PM to 4AM all because of a tropical storm... shit sucks.

On a side note, Katrina caused damage to Mississippi; New Orleans was hit by it's own damn problem.

No... it was a hurricane becoming a storm.

It's over now and it was weak even for a storm let alone a hurricane.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
