Note from the illustrator:
The sword was drawn on the wrong hand - left hand. The sheath was also on the left hand side. A left handed person who wields a sword will never have the sheath on the left hand side... My mistake. Apologises. :p

I thought you said this would only be an archive, Knight.
Unless I misunderstood this?
I support your idea for an archive, but please keep it an archive. Maybe you can post a comic here after the last issue expires. Just a thought.

Wow, this is TOTALLY amazing. It made me laugh my worries out :D This is totally nice. And I hope it won't only have a thread, it requires something more splendid. If you've been to the Gaia Online forums, you will see a comic section. And I hope TH will have one too :)

Made a few lame cards out of boredom. :p Collect them now! They may worth millions in years to come. Now, it's only worth $1.00.

Here are some:

Not sure myself. :p Just be patient, my friend... (Well at least the producers of the comic have not appeared...yet :p)

Probably you just have to do something really dumb with Knight around, and inspire him something... Hmmmm.... Something dumb... or funny...

Oh, I know I'll be appearing.
I just don't know when. :)

But yeah, what you said is the quickest way to get in.

You guys should probably know that I haven't given vypur all of the scripts yet. Just so you know. :)

Romek, you'll be in the comic on June 14.

The next strip has been archived, along with its review (hope you don't mind, Ninva). :)

In response to Pines review, I think the fact that the comic is based on a real thread made it funnier.
Doesn't seem like everyone likes the idea though. :p

Why is this comic a special? What makes it so?

  • 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

    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
