Judges have until midnight tonight.

Sounds fair.

I assume most people on this forum greatly anticipate the Seventh Book coming out tomorrow.

Can't say I didn't try. :p It was my first poem in English as well, oh well.

> Emotion - 13/30

Did you find it THAT emotionless? I guess it depends on how you look at it...

I knew this was going to come up :eek:

Anyway
Heres the major thing
Your topic was about something that made you feel an emotion not an emotion itself
Its alittle confusing but you just mixed up the topics

Anyway you had a good try
If the topic was something that made you feel this emotion
You would get perfect score

See didn't I tell you you were going to be shocked at the results?

Well that's one way to look at the song, however when I wrote it I thought about the following (yes I thought about many depressing things which are cliches...)

1) I tryed to think about lonlyness and repetiviness (is that a word?..) in the world.
2) The sad opposites, death and immortally, and how no one wants to have either one, but when we born at the end we will reach one of them.
3) And many more things which are hard to put into words...

So, yes, few pcitures talked about what GAVE me the feeling, but while I did that I tryed to trasfer itself.

I guess there are always other contests.

Gah. Bloody Hell. I screwed up.

We're giving Krys ONE more day, but because I did something stupid. I knew she wouldn't be available today/tonight, but it completely slipped my mind.

She's currently at Borders, having a Harry Potter party o_O It's been coming for weeks, now. Gah, I'm such a twit -.-

Yeah. One more day. Sorry guys.

General chit-chat
Help Users
  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • 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
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New dessert added to recipes Southern Pecan Praline Cake https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-southern-pecan-praline-cake.193555/
  • The Helper The Helper:
    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.
