Rinpun, you're funny...Looking

Just because I don't try to look like a smart little twit with big words doesn't mean I don't know them :p I just tend to use what most people call the "slang" of humanity. Pardon me for wanting to be understood?

Besides...I have a girlfriend who's read the dictionary a few times, I doubt I need to look anything up :p

-Mind-

I know, dude. I was kidding around :p

Perhaps, like Lordloki, I must begin to use "[sarcasm][/sarcasm]" tags? :rolleyes:

Heh. That's what I have been trying to say.

The grammar police strike once more.

Pardon my crappy engrish, (Yes, engrish) becuase the conversion from Swedish to engrish is hard. :p

Of course, your statement was frivolous, since humor, besides the slight triumph of competition, was the main purpose of this thread. I was merely pointing out your mistake.

The goal of my eccentric vocabulary is merely ornamenting my phrases, in fact.

...Oh, my...

Conan, tell me that was a joke? A really bad joke?

He means he's making his messages look better, genius...Ornamenting, decorating, GET IT?!

...Wow, dude...

...But he's still hanging ornaments on his phrases, right? :confused:

Mind said he was, but it doesn't make since...

:confused:

Mind said he was, METAPHORICALLY...Meaning not ACTUALLY -.-

AND BY THE FREAKING WAY!

Since when did a little fun and laughing at stupid little self-contradictions become enough to freaking negative rep someone, Mind?! Jees, so I should start negative repping everyone for every little error they make on the damn site?

Just goes to show you what trying to make a joke will do around here...

ERROR! ERROR! AHAHAHAHAHA, YOU FORGOT THE EXTRA DIGIT! :p

[Mechanical Voice] Error, error, code red, quadrant 3 -- 5 alpha -- D seven! [/Mechanical Voice]

Lol, I'll just go posi-rep Alexander then :D :D :D

Btw, what does the word obstifernous mean? :p

...Is that even a word?

there is no obstifernous, but I found obstinacy.

1. The state or quality of being stubborn or refractory.
2. The act or an instance of being stubborn or refractory.

So, in short, obstifernous isn't a word.

Reread what you posted, and see how your enthusiasm made you arrogant.

Yes, I know what the comment MEANT, Mind, but what I'm saying is:

I
W A S
J O K I N G !

Get it now? I don't think I can type it any more clearly, maybe in huge letters.

Would that be better for you?

-By the way-

I know I didn't use the tags, but that was sarcasm. Just so you know.

And again, this thread is meant to sound facetious, not acrimonious.

And strangely enough it fails to do even that, this thread is just pointless.

You know, strangely enough, no one has started a pointless chat-like thread yet? All the threads with an actual topic just seem to turn into that type :p But is there a thread for it?! NO!

What am I talking about, you ask?!

DON'T ASK!

WHY?!

Because I have no idea...

Pleas try to forgive my atrocious idiocy and lock this foolish thread down. Now.

I shouldn't have returned… I knew it was naive to believe that I would ever be socially accepted.

Vana salus,
et semper dissolubilis.
Obumbrata,
et velata,
michi quoque niteris.

Well-being is vain,
and always dissappearing.
Shadowed,
and veiled,
you plague me too.

...Oh, get off it -.-

When did this become "hey, we don't accept you, Mind!"?

Dude, I was a little confused why you negative repped me over a joke. Um, I think I'll live and forgive. If you think I'm that mad, then I'm sorry you got mixed up, cause I'm not.

No harm, no foul, right?

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • 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
