December 21, 2012 is just the end of a major cycle in the Mayan calender. Not the end of the calendar. The only thing that happens is that they would add yet another "digit" to their complete date representation, kinda like we "did" from year 999 to 1000. They would probably get drunk and party a lot too.

Can't remember where i read it but this. And that the number 13 was sacred to mayans, and this would be the 13th cycle. So they stopped there because its past their lucky number

It's gonna be like 2000. An excuse to party. And why would we listen to a doomsday prophecy of a civilization of people that died out a long time ago?

I dont lol.

Meh, WOW probably came out, and they got sick of "calander" making on WC3 :thup: :D

I don't think that's how it QUITE worked, but then again if you tell a big enough lie everyone believes it. So... OMG REELY? AMAZING!

I would like to start working on a plan just in case something bad happens. I think we should all meet up in Greenland; zombies can't live in the cold (I don't think).

Of course it is going to happen. I have already dropped all my classes and given up all my worldly possessions, no need for things like computers or Internet after the apocalypse. I'm using what little time I have left to repent and prepare for the end, where are my ceremonial robes?

Are you gonna RSVP to come to Greenland?

Seriously people, chances are nothing will happen and chances are Greenland won't be the best place for a standoff as some people might just freeze to death after a day or so and the rest of us are going to be cold and have numb fingers which makes it hard to pull triggers, but if we're going to die, we might as well do it in a badass blizzard battle (I mean really, you can't watch scenes from a war battle thing that's taking place in a cold, snowy and icy tundra without thinking 'this is so totally badass, that's how I want shit to go down in my life').

Plus if there's a rain of fire kinda thing, I don't think the climate in Greenland supports fire.

For the purpose of this post, pretend it is real. Without a doubt real.

Who cares? Bam the earth is dead. Can't stop it can you? Stop worrying about something that you cant prevent.

When it comes you will all die pretty much instantaneous. And not just you, everyone on the planet. So there.

Well, Isn't it a pity we we can't ask a survivor.? They could answer It.

The question I would like to have answered, pretending it is true:
How?

I for one don't believe in this crap, it can't be that simple, it just can't be. It is not logical at all, it is just plain stupid to think that everything would end just like that for no apparent reason:nuts:

Haven't you EVER read The Stand?

Yeah but if it was real you would come to Greenland right?

so. how is 2012 supposed to end? the earth SPONTANEOUSLY COMBUSTS?

I have heard some alternatives:
Another Ice age.
Our sun exploding/imploding/dying.
Another sun dying(The movie "supernova" aka "Supernova: 2012", yes it is the movie that is everyone is talking about).
Some cosmic lineup thing that causes a new big bang.
Satan walks the earth and basically the biblical armageddon starts.

Each even more crazy or stupid than the last one:nuts:

The odds for one of them happening are so small. Not to mention the people talking about exact times such as "12:00" are just stupid, the mayans did not even have clocks, they used the soon tho, but that was never mentioned in their calenders:nuts:
A calender makes use of: Days, weeks, months, years.
Not: Minutes, hours, seconds.

If you have any other thing that could happen, please share them :) I would really like to learn about as many as possible:D

i think that another ice age is very plausible, everything in nature goes in cycles. An ice age would destroy/remove most the harmful things from the earth and in due time the world would come back better, with or without us.

my 2 cents

    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
