Curse a lot. Think of how google’s AI summary won’t appear if you include the word “fuck” in your search, or how everyone on social media is self-censoring naughty words for fear of The Algorithm. The internet has been carefully curated and manicured to be marketable to every possible demographic, so they can milk data from everyone; from the six year old watching Fortnite videos to the pearl-clutching suburbanites worried about the Gays corrupting their Family Values. Become unmarketable by swearing like a sailor. Make communities with your fellow potty-mouths. Rebel against censorship by saying “fuck” a lot.

The best lesson I learned in chemistry class was to not put a wet beaker on a pre-heated hot plate

Thanks! And I do wear it almost every day, as evidenced by the multiple scratches on the crystal

Yeah, I wish there was a company that made a fully dumb electric car

I’ve been thinking this too. How hard is it to start a car company, I wonder?

Of even if they have nothing bad to say, obsess about it anyways and think they must be lying to not hurt your feelings

The clock strikes five

I start to laugh

I’m taking a shit

On time and a half

 

"[The water] rushes with great impetuosity; the foaming surges dash through the rocks with terrific violence; no craft, either large or small, can venture there safely. During floods, this obstruction, or ledge of rocks, is covered with water, yet the passage of the narrows is not thereby improved."

The rapids, along with nearby Celilo Falls, were submerged in 1957 with the construction of a dam.

 

Several years ago I leapt enthusiastically into the realm of 3D printing by buying a massive, expensive delta-type printer. I had to put it together myself, which was fun, but after that I struggled to get it to print well. Even simply trying to get the prints to stick to the bed were difficult, leading me to add huge brims to all my parts which were a pain to cut off afterward. Eventually I gave up fiddling with it and it’s been gathering dust ever since.

I know that a lot of you treat the hobby as an opportunity for endless tinkering and optimization, which is great, but I think I’ve realized that what I’d prefer is something that just works out of the box with a minimum of adjustment.
