I sorely wish there was a follow button ๐Ÿ˜ญ

If you intend to put this money away for a long time, and you won't be tempted to take it out prematurely, it would be wise to invest in a low cost index fund (invest in stocks and bonds, basically). If you are in the U.S., you can invest in a Roth IRA and take the funds out prematurely ONLY if it is for purchasing a first time house. You earn far more interest that way.

 

I've had an interest in 3d printing for a while and had a few models on my wishlist, but long story short a mutual friend wanted an upgrade, and I was the first one to accept their model that they no longer needed. I cannot ask them for help. I'll probably try to ask them what specifically they changed about the printer, but I can't know that they'll take the time to respond to me.

I'd like to know where to start with this. I got what seems like an entire 3d printer in addition to a box with a bunch of parts and stuff in it. I'm wondering if I should disassemble the printer and put it back together to get an idea of what I'm dealing with? Or if I should just be grateful it's together and try and use it. It'd also be helpful if someone could help me identify which parts are not stock and what I should expect while using those parts.

Thank you,

Semi

Yepperoni, thanks for putting this so succinctly.

[โ€“] inconspicuouscolon@lemy.lol 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

What would you say to a person who refuses to acknowledge or take into consideration the belief of a religious individual?

[โ€“] inconspicuouscolon@lemy.lol 4 points 10 months ago

I don't hold belief against people so long as they act appropriately toward others.

I have some positive and negative opinions toward particular religions based on their foundations and practices.

I kinda long for a sense of spiritual community, but I can't make myself have faith in something I don't believe, no matter how nice it seems. So that kinda sucks

preach (pun intended)

[โ€“] inconspicuouscolon@lemy.lol 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

how are you feeling?

[โ€“] inconspicuouscolon@lemy.lol 3 points 11 months ago

Tgat lol thing is pretty cute, I might steal it >:)

[โ€“] inconspicuouscolon@lemy.lol 1 points 11 months ago

I am very nice. I could probably be kinder, but I think if I was I'd be letting myself get walked on and stuff, so I don't think it's all that good to be too polite.

[โ€“] inconspicuouscolon@lemy.lol 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Being in a relationship gives me a sense confidence in myself.

If you do not hear these people out, you are denying yourself the chance for a better life. By refusing to believe you are capable of what you want, you are making it impossible for you to achieve your goals. Because you won't try.

Good luck โค๏ธ

That's a pretty good way of putting it

Black beans are soooo good

 

Hey all. noob-ish pirate here. Skipping long winded post. I'm struggling to find sources to download/torrent kids cartoons. Some are easy, but I'm looking for paw patrol and it's scarce on 1337. The more modern stuff and the super popular stuff are a little easier though. Not really any information on the Wiki about this stuff.

I see plenty of streaming resources. I guess if it comes down to it I can record it? I don't know the best way to do that, certainly doesn't seem ideal..

I'll update my post to reflect my levels of success :)

EDITED: As I am not in a rush, I've decided that my budget is now $500. I am picky about the features I look for in a smartphone. Hopefully this post can be a good resource for myself and others who have similar preferences. For reference, I am using a Oneplus 7 Pro with a non-functional camera and flashlight.

Very important features


Battery life

It should handle a day's worth of general usage before charging. Heat kills batteries, so decent heat dissipation is important too.

Durability or repairability

I recently bought a Google Pixel 5a, a phone I greatly enjoyed before I dropped it 5 feet and the display decided its work was done. My top priority is to have a useable device for ~5 years before needing an upgrade.

Storage

I like storing my music collection (30 GB and growing) and expandable storage would save me from having to carry a DAP (mp3 player). Without expandable storage it should have 256 GB storage.

Price

Electronics aren't meant to last a long time; I'd prefer devices costing ~300 USD, but I would gladly pay a little more for reliability.

Microphone

Please let me be intelligible on phone calls. Please? Pretty please?

Software updates or custom ROM support

OS updates for 3+ years or resources on XDA for flashing a custom ROM. Ideally LineageOS.

Would be nice


Root capability

It's a bit dated nowadays, but I really do appreciate having that extra bit of control. This also ties into custom ROM support.

Fingerprint Sensor

I loved the dedicated fingerprint sensor on my Pixel 5a. Power button fingerprints are worse, but better than nothing. Typing in my passcode every time is a bit of a pain.

Speakers

Preferably dual front facing stereo speakers. Having some decent output for videos when I don't have anything else with me would be nice.

OLED/AMOLED display

Makes stuff WAY easier to see when the sun's all sunny.

Processing power

I don't play phone games. I watch a lot of media and I message people. Must be capable of simultaneously running muliple apps and background services.

IPA ratings

It'd be pretty sick if I could bring it with me in the shower without worrying about water damage.

Fast charging

Won't always use it, but it'd be great to have.

Cutting corners


Screen resolution

I don't need a 4K display. Hell, I don't need a 1080p display. If it cuts costs, 720p is just fine so long as it looks okay.

Size

It can be big or small, thick or thin. Not picky.

Other features I don't need

Headphone jack, NFC, 5G, wireless charging


The phones I am looking at right now are as follows

  • Sony Xperia 10 V - No custom ROM support, long term durability is unclear.
  • Fairphone 4 - Slightly out of price range.
  • Samsung Galaxy XCover6 Pro - Way out of price range. I would appreciate any input or questions.

EDIT: As of 4/13/24, I decided to pick up a Samsung S20 FE. It's been treating me well, and for the low low price of $280 NEW, I'm very pleased with what I got. My complaint is that the vibrate is seriously weak. Use it on sound mode if you don't want to constantly miss notifications.
