Currently, Prusa is doing a terrible job with the Printables competition, to the point where they could be in legal trouble if someone were to push for it....
Honestly my biggest issue is with not moderating out the dozens of ridiculous entries that are either unrelated or just tinkercad screenshots of unprintable objects that were slapped together without even knowing how to use the align tool. Bonus for the ones that are not even screenshots but photos of someone's monitor showing their ridiculous tinkercad thing. Like, what are they thinking? Why even submit?
I like contests as curated collections for me to browse through, and the scrolling through all that crap kinda annoys me. Maybe they're curating them out now, it's been a while since I looked through them. I know it's a minor pet peeve thing lol
I love in Colorado, which is a pretty dry state, so while I had heard of "wet filament", I never considered it to be a problem that I would have to worry about. I had seen people creating dry storage bins for their filament, but figured that must just be for people in humid climates....
I live in high humidity, so that's a big part of my setup. I print from a custom dryer with 4 spools in it, which feed to the printer through PTFE bowden tubes. I have a wifi switch for the dryer that just turns on once in a while to keep the ones sitting there from getting wet by keeping the inside of the dryer, well, dry. I store all my filament in containers with a 3d printed silica containers that go into the spool. I use the "rechargeable" silica beads that change color when saturated. Once in a while, when I see that the beads are turning blue in the containers from opening and closing, I will do a drying session where I dry all the silica containers and the spools for a good while and put them all back into the containers. Can be a bit overkill, but it fully eliminates that factor for me!
So awkward, but come on it says right there on the package to wash those mushrooms or whatever it is… You’re not their mom but you don’t wanna eat feces or whatever ended up on the produce. A quick rinse is never going to be perfect but it’s better than nothing....
😂 I don't pay that much attention to usernames, but once I saw your comment, I was like "hey, I think I have come across SatansMaggotyCumFart a few times before!"
I am a historian whose specialty is too recent to deal with anything like that (20th century), but also have a friend who, to be generic here, deals with a handful of a few centuries back. She found a baggie of a drug mistakenly stored with a letter in an archive (think 18th century) and on a whim, dipped their pinky into the powder and tried it. They regret that decision, but also, nothing happened:)
EDIT: Historians can be boring, but not always that tame
Lol the für Elise thing is funny. Back in highschool I got a "PC maintenance" credit which had me assigned as support in the computer lab. I made a batch script that ran on startup and showed a warning message saying the hard disk will self destruct and did a countdown from 10 with the motherboard speaker beeping down, fun times
So, not sure if I am completely off base here, but I had this odd thing happen today where I couldn't post an URL because whenever I did, part of it would be replaced with the text removed.

Just out of sheer curiosity, do you know what might have gotten it added in the first place? Is it a substring of some obscure slur? Substring of some spam domain or something?
Yeah, I assumed most of the world was at least 18. I was surprised when I moved to the US at 15 and could get a learner's permit and drive with an adult, and drive by myself at 16.
Let's talk about Prusa Printables contests. It might need some fixing.

Dry your filament!

How do you get people to wash their vegetables when you're at their house and you don't wanna seem rude?
