They never said they were 100% sure. But what has this to do with the topic?
Well aren't "earth" much closer for them, to figure out how to find "dangerous landmines and other crap weapons dumps?" Well, anyway Let's see what the future holds ...

So, what is your arguement? I can just see a random sentence with no direct connection to the post above.

For the record, seeing through the atmosphere and an absence of matter (or hydrogen, I dunno what space is made of to be honest) is a lot easier to figure out than seeing through the solid earthen crust of our world. For the record.

Space is a vacuum. Not really defined very well, but it's more or less empty.

Well the whole idea behind the "space mine" was to create a defensive barrier between earth and the other planets. But they forgot about Voyager 0 which tried to pass the field last year, after its expedition to an outer solarsystem. But got stuck on the outside. The redbull guy jumping was actually a federal agent warning the returning dpace explorers about earth. Trying to lead them away from the doomed planet, and symbolizing that with an epic skyfall suicide.

Man, I wish I knew what you were ranting about. I just got confused, though =/

Yeah I don't he think he finished the video. Which was pretty damn awesome I will add. Can you imagine being on that platform and seeing that? It would be so intense!

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    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

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
