  • day she was exhibiting very interesting behavior, meowing constantly, rolling around and rubbing up against everything,

    This is a good sign. she’s getting her scent on things, marking it as hers. (hopefully, you included.) This suggests she’s cozy enough to stake a claim.

    as for spaying- I would suggest it. though I’m sure you could get better explanations and an idea of why from a vet. (also as another said… inside cats sometimes like to escape. met my timeshare cat because he’s a carrot thief… and they were my carrots…)

    Cosmic metal?

    Is that some kind of refined variation of unobtanium?

    (Without reading more… I’m just going to assume they mean meteoric iron? Though the title does read like a prompt for a b-tier sci-fi that ends with Kirk trying to put his dick into something he absolutely shouldn’t put his dick into.)

    Well, this was just plain, frozen tuna that I marinated in mirin, soy, garlic, ginger, green onion and minced red chili. (that marinade then became a sauce with the addition of some brown sugar, after searing off the tuna,)

    The sashimi may or may not have been duly scarfed.




  • So there’s zero need to directly connect the pc to the printer. Usually there’s either a microsd or similar to plug in and load to print from that.

    However, if you want to, Pronterface is a useful tool for providing command inputs via usb.

    It gives you a basic gui to set temperature, manually move the print bead, some telemetry (real time temp charts,) and if you really felt like it… you can print small files across the usb (or push them to the sd and tell it to print from there. Though file transfer rate is usually dog-breath slow.)

    Most usefully, it has a command line interface that allows you to send manual gcodes. This is very helpful for tuning and maintenance. (For example m851 will report XYZ offset, and you can set it with for example m851 z-2.47)

    Or if you use UBL, create and store the g29 meshes (and if you add t to the command it’ll report values. For example g29 l0 t will load the mesh in slot 0, and report in the box.)

    There’s a ton of useful g and m codes.



  • nobody really speaks ancient greek.

    I think that’s something that a lot of people (astronomers, in particular) seem to forget. This would be like walking around town speaking Middle English. Nobody would understand you. You’ve never heard one of Shakespear’s plays in the same langauge Shakespear did- he used Early Modern English, and every play has been adapted to modern audiences;

    some more fun facts… Charon, the moon, was technically named after Jame’s Chrsity’s wife. (he’s the guy who found Charon.)… her name was Charlene. though he did see the connection to the ferryman of greek myths and find that appropriate as well. he pronounced it Shar-on

    So. All that to say… Pronounce it how you like, there’s options.

    You know that they’ve found dicks scrawled on bathroom stalls in pompei, in basically the same style we still scrawl dicks on bathroom stalls.

    Also, the your-mom jokes, yelp-esque reviews, and yelp-esque reviews of your mom.

    Yeah. we’ve grown a lot as species. And also, haven’t grown at all.

    Also, the senator’s name was Gregg Abotticus.

    For example, you know what’s an incredibly common thing to find on a dig? Dildos. Phallic stuff is everywhere, and when you find a well-polished, life-sized clay dick, it’s pretty clear what it was used for

    I’m just going to imagine that they were using it to slap politicians in the face with dildos. Because something about roman senators getting slapped with a clay horsecock makes me laugh.
