That looks amazing.

I feel like she also has Trample.
Speaking as a new hobbyist (2 months), I went with an Creality Ender 3 V3 KE. The cost was in the $250-300 USD range and it had a decent range of features.
I’ve used it almost every day since unpacking it. It’s pretty easy to get to know. The Creality cloud slicing tool is good enough for me (for now), and can be run via a browser or app.
Microcenter has a variety of display models that you can check out. If I had known about it I probably would have gone prior to making my selection. I’m not sure my choice would have been different, but a little extra knowledge never hurts.
Nice! That’s very similar to something I want to do with my tablet and reader.
The two hobbies I picked up over the past year are leather working and 3D printing. Funnily enough, I was about two weeks into printing before I realized… “hey - I can combine these.”
The One Grand Unified Force to Bind Them All… no, it’s a Star Wars joke.
Glad you saw it! I skipped travelling for it in 2017 because the weather forecast was so dismal.
Southwest Ohio got lucky this year.
It’s lovely. We watched from our backyard. And I know my strength is not photography, so thanks for this.
It’s hard to describe “it looks like non-directional sunset but there’s a deeply uncool eye in the sky.”
Celestron is a name I know and would trust. My dad had one of their telescopes and it was pretty nice. That was in the '80s though.
If you can get to an area where it will be in totality, you can see it without eye protection during that brief 2-3 minute window. The danger to your eyes is when it’s at anything less than full total eclipse.
Workaround: You can see the eclipse with a low tech solution of a pinhole camera. Google it for a better explanation, but
-poke a pin through a sheet of paper. -during the eclipse, just hold it over something like another sheet of paper and you can see an accurate projection of the sun as the eclipse progresses
It’s actually pretty neat.
But if your weather is good, consider going to a place where the eclipse will be total. I’m in the path, but I’m seriously considering driving several hours to a place with a better weather forecast. I’ve seen good quality photo and video of total eclipses since I was a child. And the people who showed it to me (astronomy nerds from a club) told me “it’s not the same.”
Presumably it’s the same reason that I couldn’t find a way to close my bank account (in person, at the fucking bank) in 1998. And presumably it’s the same reason that my elderly parents can’t get their Medicare supplemental insurance agent to close out their account prior to their move to another state, where that insurance won’t be accepted.
You’re a customer. They love you. Reasons.
