Even though it is apparent that Ace does not like me and holds a serious grudge the feeling is not mutual. I am actually deeply disheartened to read this reply because I respect and truly do still like Ace. It just casts a dark shadow over everything I have worked for with this site and am trying to do here.

Acehart, if you read this I just want to let you know that man, I am heartfully sorry for whatever it is I did to make you dislike me. I like to think that I have changed quite alot since you were here last. When you left, that was a really dark part of my life. I was having quite alot of personal issues as well as business ones. It was a real low point and I made questionable decisions and did stupid things.

I will not retaliate with harsh words and what Ace has said here does not change my opinion about him one bit. He is entitled to his opinion and I am really just more concerned about what I can do to change myself so I don't leave anymore of the people that I consider friends and care about on this site with a negative impression of me or the time they spent here. Time for some deep reflection.

What a fucking bummer.

Just think about it. That guy is still lurking the forums. He read TH's post and answered it.
Why would he read this forum? He doesnt post here. He doesnt chat in the shoutbox. It doesnt appear like he is big friends with somebody here. He probably doesnt need some kind of help with the world or galaxy editor I guess.
You know why? Hes waiting for somebody to post something about him. Just wants to get off to somebody mentioning his name. And then, maybe, try to hurt somebodies feelings.
Pretty immature. Like a little kid, lost his toys, now wants the others to not have any fun too.

Fine, if he has some kind of grudge against TH, okay, but why is he still here? Why would he still post here? That doesnt make much sense, he left years ago.
Just acting like a little prick right now. Thats it.

You do make a point. Nonetheless, I'll stay neutral about this.

Seriously Accname, you have to post mature in order to get the cred to call someone like Aceharts post immature. One of the things to consider the next time you put one of those racist comments or some of the stuff you have posted in the past. Not saying you cannot recover from that but it is going to take time, like everything.

The reason why Ace is posting here, in my opinion, is because people are talking about him. He is here to defend himself and to let me know personally that my recollection of things and my opinion of why he left or why he did anything is mere speculation and probably way off the mark. I know his reply was not a book, just a few words, but they spoke volumes to me.

I never said I make mature posts. I am not here to have "mature" discussions about things. I am here to have some fun. Have a good laugh, make some jokes, enjoy the company. I like the people here (except for firecat maybe) and I come here everyday to have a good time.
My racist, sexist, offensive, whatever comments are jokes; and many members here seem to enjoy them too considering how often people go along with them.

But why does he come here? Did he do anything for the past years on this forum except leaving a cryptic message every time somebody mentions his name? Well actually I dont know because I dont really care, but I would guess he didnt do anything else.
So why does he come here? If he was a regular user and doing something in this forum everyday, and just occasionally tells you how much he hates you then I would be fine with that. But all he does is wait for somebody to mention him and then jump in.
Thats really immature. What kind of person would do something like that?

I have every right to criticize somebody on the internet. Everybody has the right to criticize everybody else on the internet. Thats the wonder of the 21st century.

However, it can be a point of pride, in my opinion, that you know you can criticize everyone, yet you refrain from doing so, just out of politeness.

I always looked up to AceHart, especially because of his computer science knowledge, and while I find his last post extremely bitter, I think he has all the rights to post in the forum, since without him the forum would not be in its current shape.

It is my opinion that the thread should be closed though, as it's becoming a bit of a flame war, even with its small number of active members...

I am going to leave this thread open. I will moderate it. I think things need to be said here and I am not going to prevent that by closing it.

There's isn't a bit strange why he come back. But what's it's strange it's his reply!

And Woha! Didn't expect that
There were a number of times that Ace would come straight up and say TH if you do that I am gone.
It's Just pure threat!

Do you? You should.

P.s.: My only relation to DotA2 is watching the occasional Tobi Wan cast, never played that thing.
Try some LoL.

Once Acehart asked a personal favor from me. Go get a postcard and send it to this address. Make sure it is all blank just send it here. You know how hard it was to find a postcard in this day and age .... :)

That is over my head. I don't get it. Someone explain please.

It's a League of Legends account page on the 3rd party tracking website www.lolking.com.

Likely a reply to Prometheus's post about playing LoL instead of DotA2 (which I highly recommend against because the community is as toxic as you can possibly imagine).

And just as an interjection, Prometheus (kc102), whom I was semi-close with in the early days, is a friend on Facebook. He is 20 years old and turning 21... soon. This guy is a whole year-and-a-half older than I.

LoL isn't terrible if you play with friends in ranked. Lower brackets do get toxic players though.

Also, the link was a reference to Dante's Inferno and LoL. Linking the summoner profile of "The Ninth Circle"

While true, LoL has a pretty toxic community. It can be fun and addicting, which is why I forced myself to quit.

The trick is keeping several addicting games around so you never get too addicted to one. ;)

  • Varine Varine:
    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
