    Random 3D printing chatter

    Agreed on the 'if you want to tweak etc'.. then yeah.. get something that can be upgraded to high heaven lol. My kit so far is: 1) Creality Ender 3 V2 > This is highly modified for extra height / linear rails (including bed) / Belt driven Z axis to remove wobbling from Z screws / Microswiss...

    Random 3D printing chatter

    The levels of frustration of 'why the **** is it doing that??!?!" is off the chart sometimes lol. I'm telling you now 1) Learn to walk away and come back later 2) Buy a better base machine to start with to avoid a lot of frustration and headache. I would say 4 or 5 hundred is the minimum...

    Road Tripping in the USA!

    So far I've managed Smokey Mountains, Maine (Bar Harbor), Colorado Mountains (plus Florida as a young adult). All worth visiting tbh. Really want to get out to Yellowstone and Zion though.

    Thinking of moving to Cyprus

    Grew up in Cyprus, and my sister is a British Colonial, as born there. Amazing place. Bear in mind that was around 40 to 45 years ago lol. It's changed a lot since then, and become heavily commercialised I'm lead to believe. Russian money has massive influence there as well. Good luck...

    FBI raided the neighbour's house today

    I'm taking a guess with this one, but it might be related to this drug sting operation: https://www.newsbreak.com/philadelphia-pa/3399417340521-fbi-takes-down-philadelphia-drug-trafficking-ring-17-arrested-43-pounds-of-drugs-seized-ag Seems like small fry in the drug world to me.

    FBI raided the neighbour's house today

    Lol. Well I'm beginning to suspect fraud of some sort. He asked different people to call him different names. I now know the family name so will see if I can find anything in arrest/warrant documents. (Not sure if FBI do that, but local do).

    FBI raided the neighbour's house today

    FBI raided the neighbour's house today

    Sssshh... I'm in hiding! Lol. I have had a Sheriff turn up at my door a few years back and hand me documents saying I'm being sued. 'Welcome to America'. Lol. It is kinda weird... No one on community page is even talking about it at all.

    FBI raided the neighbour's house today

    I honestly don't know yet, I'm trying to get some info, but I've found nothing yet. I got home and my neighbor told me the guy didn't answer, so they kicked the door in. Technically I am American now since January. I'm not interested in the US oc site.. I would like OcUK to expand operations...

    FBI raided the neighbour's house today

    Well.... that was an interesting morning. Neighbor was taken away in handcuffs by the FBI. Took one of their vehicles as well at this point, and a load of boxes. Eight or nine police cars, marked and unmarked. FBI with vests on etc. Once I know more, I'll post up lol.

    When are you going fully electric?

    It's ok, i can take it when I'm wrong. Thanks for the info. I still don't fawn over electric cars like they are savior, but it's not as bad on the production side as I had thought.

    Family dispute incoming

    At the end of the day, regardless of 'fairness' it's still their money, not his. Should he feel peeved? Sure, I wouldn't be particularly happy about it if my family were treating one like the golden child, and me with nothing.

    Family dispute incoming

    1) Your parents are entitled to do whatever they want with their money. If they give you anything at the end, then great. 2) Is it possible that your mum was scared of having a conversation with you about all this? Are you aggressive and hard headed in conversations or hold things over people...

    When are you going fully electric?

    I disclose I'm in the USA, because prices are different. No need to be a ****. Emissions: If we concentrate all the emissions in one place..... that doesn't really make it any better does it. This is exactly like how we dump trash in the ocean, or send waste to other countries. As long as it...

    When are you going fully electric?

    It 'was'. That's the main cause of a 25%+ increase in price of Tesla's for example. Let me know when the electric battery prices plummet and those electric cars come back down in price.

    When are you going fully electric?

    Lithium is going off the scale price wise. Subsidies are less than in 2018. Tesla's are far more expensive now than even three years ago. Electric is up in price. EMISSIONS are NOT resolved with electric vehicles. I don't want to derail, but it is an absolute myth. They are offset somewhere...

    When are you going fully electric?

    Makes less sense now than in 2018. Resources stretched, which pushed up prices. Government subsidies not as strong. Electric prices rising..Charging stations often broken (minor). Hybrid was and still is the better solution. Diversity of power sources is better . We also have countries...

    Baltimore Bridge

    The amount of trash talking and 'conspiracies' on the Bridge are just ridiculous. Even politicians here suggesting that it was x persons fault etc. The other thing is the repub's are saying the fed shouldn't assist in paying for the bridge to be replaced. If this had happened in Texas with a...
