I've never known that TH.net had such deep and mysterious roots, and that the people who were behind it all had such crazy pasts.
I'm honoured to be a part of this community
Interesting read, want more!
Little known facts:
thehelper.net is like the first site I check when I wake up.
My Firefox has it preselected for me instantly the moment I hit the down arrow key.
A little part of me died when the site went down for a couple days/weeks a few years ago. [I thought it was down for good!]

Well you said you were the last MVP before they cancelled the first rendition of it. So the fact you are posting on the 1st MVP story thread it is kind of the full circle of the MVP program. The first one and the last one. Glad to see you still stop by King TonGoll - it is good to see you again!

Yes, even the Atari Forums also had a similar split in 2008 ~ 2009 era.

I used to hang out on the atari forums. I used to troll Thunderbird about Battlesphere back in the day. We host the NUON-Dome which is K3V's site.

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:
So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
-
-
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:
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:
Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
-
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:
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:
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:
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:
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:
Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
-
-
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:
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:
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:
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.
