What I'd give to be the old man who swung at the RC Car. <3

LOL. They deserved that, though who would've thought two old men would be so aggressive? :eek:

Dude, don't FUCK with golfers. They take their relaxing VERY seriously.

Not gonna lie, I'd punch an old dude in the face for that shit. Breaking the car is one thing, pushing the camera is taking things to another level, but then he swung at them with a club. That's assault and I'd claim defense and kick the shit out of him.

Haha, that's great.
But yeah, what Bartuc said. Those old guys were out of line. They're lucky those kids aren't exactly tough.

You can't legally claim defense. Self Defense would be what they did, run away. I would've probably swung at the camera if I was the old guy too. If I'm playing golf, and I'm old, I'd probably have money for a good lawyer too. =]

@ Bartuc:
I don't imagine you'd be the sort of person who'd use an RC car to ruin a golf game though.

These two set out to annoy two old men, and to their surprise, they succeeded. :p

Meh... I'd still punch an old man. :)

The kid started it with physical contact (the push), as you can see on the camera. They could claim self defense and win.

Use of force is justified when a person reasonably believes that it is necessary for the defense of oneself or another against the immediate use of unlawful force. However, a person must use no more force than appears reasonably necessary in the circumstances.

They're in open space. To prevent harm they must run away. The "He hit me first" wouldn't stand as Self Defense in court.

You guys are cruel. "I'd hit that old guy for busting a remote control car that screwed up their game"

The videomakers were jerks anyways. "aww man what was that for? i just screwed up your game"

If I was the kid (and stupid enough to do what they do), I would've swung at the old men too.

But personally, I don't think I'd purposely ruin someone's golf game, or any game for that matter.

I guess my values (and sense of humor) are different from y'alls. The way I see it is this, the old dude broke the kids RC. That RC cost him money, and from the sound of it he put a little effort into it as well. Personally I'd say breaking my things is much worse then ruining one round of my golf game. Besides, stooping so low as to break some ones things is a dick move to begin with. The true assholes here, in my opinion, are the old dudes.

Imagine you're at a bar, playing a pool table, and some dick just comes and moves all te balls, just for fun. Wouldn't you feel like smacking him with the pool stick? Or would you simply say "It's just a game, we can start all over"?

Same applies to any game. Especially if there's money involved (gambling), things always get more serious.

I thought it was awesome how he struck that RC car, real pro swing there. Think that the two guys were just idiots for sending an RC car to mess up someone who has a freaking club. They had it coming. And i don't see why they had such an outburst on the old guys after he smashed his car, what did he expect someone to laugh as his game is ruined? :D

Took the words from my fingers.
That guy's got good aim.

    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
