  • Marker will look good for now, but in a couple of weeks it will probably be fairly noticeable again if you’re doing it straight on wood.

    If you want it to look good. Sand down the area inside and directly around the chip so that it’s smooth. Brush on a layer of white primer, let it dry for a day, then layer on some paint in whatever color and finish of the guitar. Maybe some sealer if you want but if it’s just a chip I don’t think it’s necessary.

    It sounds like a lot of work but it’s maybe an hour or two of actually doing anything, and for a thousand dollar guitar I’d say it’s worth it. I like projects like this, though, maybe you’re ok with the slightly faded Sharpie. I would still smooth the area out with some light sanding first, though.

    You can drop any block of g-code into your slicer, but that would require running the file to get the commands to run. In Klipper, you can just run the macro.

    For example I’ve got a “enclosure heat” macro that

    1. Sets bed temp to 100 and extruder to 280

    2. Turns all fans to max

    3. Moves my print head in front of my webcam (there is an ambient temp display on the print head)

    I can do all of these manually, of course, but with a macro I can just push a button and it does all of it.

    It also makes it so you don’t have to paste those entire g-code command blocks into whatever file you’re slicing, and so that you can retroactively change commands. (Instead of having the entire startup sequence at the beginning of every g-code, I have a “START_PRINT” macro at the beginning; if I change the macro, all of the files I already sliced will have the updated behavior).

    I agree with most of your points, but I do wanna say that in regards to the last mark, there are reasons besides contributing to the code and building your own firmware to want to use something like Klipper. I’m not a programmer at all but the amount of customization and QOL tools I can achieve compared to what you’re able to do with Bambu’s software is insane. I can never go back to a printer without custom macros




  • I have a short, wide basket for clean clothes and a tall skinny round basket for dirty. Clothes that are still pretty much clean (think a flannel I just washed and wore over a T-shirt for an evening) normally get tossed back into the clean basket for “eventual” folding and putting away. Clothes that are more on the dirty side but don’t need to be washed right away (mostly pants or shirts that were only worn for a quick outing) will get draped on the side of the dirty basket.




  • In one comment you call someone racist for saying that beauty standards are rooted in white supremacy, and in your following comment you “explain” how Aryan women are objectively more beautiful than women of other races.

    Do you hear yourself? You think that these “studies of beauty” are anything other than horny, objectifying dudes rating women’s bodies. Surprise surprise, those dudes think white women are hotter than non-white women. This is where that other person’s comment on phrenology came from, you’re referencing pseudoscience as if it’s fact.

    And before you call me a fanboy defending whoever the fuck you’re talking about, I’ve got no idea who she is, and whether or not I would find her personally attractive is irrelevant. Your question and the entire premise is weird, and your justification behind it when being called out is rooted in more problematic ideology.



  • This is so hard to imagine in a modern world with instant communication and the ability to travel huge distances relatively easily.

    Can you even try to imagine your SO disappearing one day, always just thinking “wonder where they are of if they’re alive”, the 11 years later they’re at your door like “sorry I’m late, what’s for supper?”

    Do you know if he was able to get any correspondence out during his trek back? Maybe he was able to get a letter sent out in one of the cities he passed through?


  • This is something I haven’t really thought about. I work in healthcare and I can genuinely tell you I’d have no idea how to handle this, if your meds got sent to my pharmacy there would likely be a huge delay and I guarantee you it would not be anything intentional on our side 😭 of course an insurance company will have dealt with this many more times than a chain pharmacy and should have practices in place for such situations, but I don’t think there’s anything in my system I could do to say someone is both male and female.
