Recommend a game for me to play with my partner

My partner and I occasionally play games together, but they pretty much only play word puzzle games on their own. I’m not very good at word games though, and they don’t have very good spatial skills, so we frequently find ourselves mismatched. We have a switch and a single decent gaming pc, and a pretty old laptop....

GullibleOyster,

My wife and I really enjoyed playing The Quarry together. It’s one of those games where it is more of a movie with decisions so I would do all of the controls and she would do the decisions.

GullibleOyster,

Yeah mobi support got removed earlier this year. Epubs work fine for me though once use calibre to remove the DRM.

If you had a one-way ticket to Jan 1, 1999 that departs on Jan 1, 2024, and you are allowed to bring whatever fits into a backpack with you, what would you bring to use to take over the world, and how would you use it?

Assume that the future can change based on your actions, so any historical information that you bring along with you from the intervening 25 years may quickly drift out of the new realities history....

Kobra Max direct drive mod and insulation (lemmy.world)

I’ve been looking to switch the bowden extruder for a direct drive type on my Anycubic Kobra Max. I’ve always hated the blobbing and stringing due to the bowden mechanism. After having received an LDO Orbiter v2.0 today and a bit of tinkering, I now have what I was after :)....

GullibleOyster,

Nice move! I think you have it correctly mounted though, I wouldn’t put it on a bracket. I used a conversion bracket for direct drive on my Max and I kept getting pulsing issues.

I think they were due to the filament pushing down the hotend slightly when starting to extrude because the hotend is mounted on the compliant strain gauge mount. With your method, it stays isolated and doesn’t push down more on the strain gauge mount when the extrusion starts.

Please give me an update if you can if you run into any other problems!

GullibleOyster,

I personally like the strain gauge as a leveling mechanism, particularly since I added a magnetic build plate. I like the idea of #2, I wonder if you could use a M10 male to make adapter like this: www.ebay.com/itm/404101432925?chn=ps&norover=…

And just connect your adapter plate to the hotend (or tap the orbiter? Idk)

You might need a little printed spacer and a short Bowden tube inside that.

Other little nice things/learnings for the printer I have done other than the spring steel sheet:

If you want an all metal hotend you can replace the heartbreak with a slice engineering copperhead heartbreak (use a G2 type)

If you want color change capabilities, to have finer z adjust, and to have a larger mesh, i recommend trying the following custom firmware (IF YOU ARE CONFIDENT WITH THIS KIND OF STUFF)

GullibleOyster,

Mostly just for removal! I print a lot of giant pots for my houseplants and I’m impatient.

Let me know how the Manta goes, I have a duet wifi I was considering using for this that is currently on an old project. Has someone made a wiring diagram for the harness or are you just redoing all of the wiring? Last I looked I couldn’t find a Pinout diagram for either the harness or the board.

Play multiplayer if you have the opportunity!

I just started a fresh run with a friend a couple days ago. I sort of have my DM hat on and am just letting her go around, making her own decisions and mistakes. This is also the first CRPG she’s ever played, and she accidentally clicked on Lae’zel when trying to break her out of the tiefling trap. I was amazed they gave...

GullibleOyster,

I’m having a blast playing 4 player co-op with some buds! The DM of our DnD campaign moved and hasn’t had the chance to set up his computer for our Foundry VTT so this has been a bunch of fun in the meantime.

Looking for feedback on a new build. (pcpartpicker.com)

Finally looking to build a new rig after about 7 years on my current machine. Will largely be used for gaming in Linux, although I may wind up throwing in a second drive for dual booting to Windows for games that don’t work well on Proton/Wine. Also using it as a home theater box for streaming content....

GullibleOyster,

Looks pretty solid! I’m a fan of the air cooler, I’ve built with both and after having the pump fail suddenly on my AIO I won’t use anything other than air.

One thing to double check would be RAM clearance for your CPU cooler vs the height of your RAM. Idk if pcpartpicker checks that and it would suck to get into your build and have it not fit correctly.

What open source programs do you recommend for Windows? (Windows exclusive or not)

I am and all my life have been a Linux user, I have nothing against Windows or MacOS, I just like Linux, and lately I have been experimenting with Windows in a virtual machine and I don’t really know much open source software there apart from the one that is cross-platform like Firefox or Joplin....

GullibleOyster,

Shotcut is a great easy to learn video editor I have used a lot.

GullibleOyster,

Idk what this guy is using, but I’ve installed wham bam flex plates on 2 large resin printers and I consider it almost a requirement. It makes print removal super easy and installation is real easy.

GullibleOyster,

I’m a big fan of welding parts together using a 3D pen and the filament I printed with. Then, if it’s not super clean, I make the edge flush with a small chisel.

That or uv adhesive to tack parts together and then CA glue and remove the adhesive.

GullibleOyster,

Nice! I’ve got a Wagner from around the same time with a similar story, thing is my favorite frying pan!

GullibleOyster,

Yeah, I guess if you wanted to reduce waste you could supply it as logs that get cut off from? That way there is at least less plastic per piece

GullibleOyster,

My friend who used to work there told me her least favorite thing to make was the Mexican pizza because of all of the layers.

GullibleOyster,

I’ve got an Anycubic Kobra Max at home for big prints that is relatively reliable and a corexy poject printer cobbled together from about 10 different sources.

My first printer was a makerfarm i3v in 2014.

GullibleOyster,

Thanks to everyone here! I love how wholesome this community is. I’m using an elecom deft pro.

GullibleOyster,

Thanks! Space is the 2U dark blue on the bottom on the left side (and one of the 1U dark blues on the right). Return is the bottom left grey key on the right side. Scroll lock is… Nonexistent since I never use it lol although I’ve been adding in a lot on my second layer so I could add that need be.

Finger operated right trackball in the middle has been very ergo for me, I used to have a symmetrical Kensington orbit which I liked well enough but it broke on me. I find tilting the trackball in the orientation of my arm works well enough to move my right hand between the right side and the middle.

I agree with your sentiment on thumb balls, I used to use one but found it worse for my hand overall and my thumb started hurting.

GullibleOyster,

I’ll try to remember when I get home, thanks! I’m not sure if the pots themselves are still sold but if anything I’ll upload my re-creation of it to print.

GullibleOyster,

Unfortunately I’m at work right now, but I’ll be sure to share here tonight once I get everything uploaded!

GullibleOyster,

What’s that filament? I really dig the color with XDA canvas!

GullibleOyster,

Nice! I love polymaker polyterra, it’s one of my go tos (but usually in a matte white or similar). I’ll definitely try this out!

GullibleOyster,

That’s a great photo of switches, I love it!
