I would do some shit outta the terminator movie and go rob a weapon place, with my custom made vehicle that I have in my garage just for that type of situation. :rolleyes:. I think alot of people have thought about this though really, and they would all wanna do the rambo whole hero thing, but alot of people would prolly end up hiding or running to a safe place.

You are moronic.

Grabbing a sword may sound cool. But guess what? It wont do crap all on a horde of zombies that know no fear or pain.

So all you will be doing is walking into your death.

I would personally get lots supplies, grab a boat, and sail away to a island far off shore.

a great idea.

Go underground, make a very large underground base for me only. I would have the walls made of titanium, enforced with other hard materials, possibly carbon fibre, or lined with kevlar. I would have 90% of the area contained hydrophonics for the growth of plants as food, and the other 10% for ammunition stockpiles, storage, living areas, and miscellaneous areas.

I would have solar panels at the top to power the underground base as well.

To get in and out of the base, i would have a ladder, with a door somewhere in the middle, camoflagued quite well, with spikes at the bottom, to prevent anyone finding the entrance. The entrance to the base will be keypad encoded, along with retina scan.

This base would preferably be in a warmer climate, near a river. I would have multiple water purifiers and salinations inside the base, to eliminate the risk of airborne, and waterborne, diseases from the water. (I hope anyway.)

I would also conduct experiments to deduct how the zombies spread their disease, and will always carry an air-filtration mask, until i have clarified whether the disease is airborne or not.



...Yeah, i have way too much time on my hands. I've thought about the whole plan already >_<

better start holding bake sales to pay for all this :/

I don't see what's with everyone talking how they'd survive an outbreak anyways. If it is a virus that's airborne there's no way enough people would be able to get gas masks fast enough to live. There'd be such a small number of people left alive that chances are everyone would die.

I would do something just a little bit different. Get some kind of boat, preferably one that does not need gas to operate. Then I would try to find a place where seafood is plentiful and when I need food, just try to catch it. The only problem with this idea is finding a way to cook the food, but otherwise I would just stay around the shore area and just kind of relax away. If the need for important supplies arise, I can go to shore and hopefully get what I need before I'm eaten. I'm hoping I would find a good source of fresh water that I could come back to if necessary. Otherwise, I would just be sure to carry around a good amount with me as well.

On a different but somewhat related note...

Bombs and nukes solve everything.

Cause you know, irradiated zombies is definitely safer then regular zombies.

Canadian Researchers :rolleyes: What else do you expect them to do?
ZOMG ZOMBIES!

Damn crazy canadians...

Mapping out infectious disease = a good thing.

Scoffing online = a silly thing.

I would windwalk and kill their workers. <3

I giggled.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?

    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.

    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
