WOW!! There is enough calories in that for almost the full day, almost. I would be curious as to the taste, does it really taste like bacon? Looks like Th and I have a bacon shake adventure to go on.

You only need a thousand calories a day? o_O

I need at least 3000, but then again I do plenty of running. I would still think you need at least 2000!

I did say, almost. I need at least 2000 calories a day, I have a high metabolism.

Whatever, it's still disgusting. And "The conversation about this topic is over" So ones again "Nuff said"

Not even if they were offering free, I wouldn't taste it

But it's not over?

Do you eat any meat at all? Because I personally think that Bacon is the King of meats.

Hmm so you think it would taste the same?
You see.. you would drink a Bacon "Meat" Milkshake? [del]Yuk! That is Gross ![/del] Not eat it! Right?
Btw: Once or twice a year that's enough to eat bacon. lol

Over and out ;)

I would try and then decide for myself. Not everything that smells or looks disgusting is gross. Chesse for example gets better with the smell and Heart or Tounge also taste wonderfull despite the looks of it.

I bet you'd rather die than eating something that doesn't suit your eye or your concept of whats good and whats not. I'd eat the remains of a carcass if it's not too old and if I'd have fire to cook it, if there were nothing left to eat.

So yeah, how can you say something is disgusting without tasting it?

That's fine If you want to. But evry food that does smells or looks disgusting."It does taste gross!
I did taste one time, Never Again!

I'd eat the remains of a carcass if it's not too old and if I'd have fire to cook it, if there were nothing left to eat.
Well, If you want to eat carcass, then eat it! I would not.
I'm pretty sure I would find food anyway, without eating any carcass or whatever.

WASHINGTON: McDonald's employee resources site has warned workers to avoid eating too much fast food including the kind of stuff served at the golden arches.

According to CNBC, one post on the site says "Fast foods are quick, reasonably priced, and readily available alternatives to home cooking," Fox News reported.

"While convenient and economical for a busy lifestyle, fast foods are typically high in calories, fat, saturated fat, sugar, and salt and may put people at risk for becoming overweight," the site said.

The posts, which appear to be designed by a third party vendor, are located in the site's 'Health Encyclopedia' section.

One posting bashes a meal of a burger, fries and soda McDonald's staples as an "unhealthy choice."

The McResource program advised its workers to trade cheeseburgers for healthy sandwiches. On Thursday, the Illinois-based company said that the website contained ‘outdated information.’

McDonald's added a tip to their internal employee website with a tip about unhealthy versus healthy foods, using their own menu items as the unhealthy choice.

McDonald's, based in Oak Brook, Ill., said Thursday that it is having its vendor take down the website

So what? Is anybody surprised that fastfood is not the "healthy choice"?
Its not like you buy it because you think its healthy. The reason you buy it is because its cheap, quick and tastes "rather" well.

You wanna bash mc D for being honest about it?

It's true that healthier foods are more expensive than less healthy foods.
Well, It should be on the contrary! Or, maybe the same price?

"at risk" - no, it directly causes obesity - standing at the edge of a cliff puts one at risk of falling, but does not directly cause one to fall - that would be 100% on the FireCat that pushes that person off the edge just like how fast food directly causes obesity

I eat plenty of fast food, and I'm still underweight. So no, eating fast food does not directly cause obesity.

Besides, FireCat wouldn't push anyone off a cliff. They'd jump voluntarily just to escape him.

yes it does - the end result is clear if you eat enough fast food - while you may still be underweight, you are still going to be fatter as a result of the fast food than you would have been if you ate "regular" food instead

    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
