ET scared the crap out of me.
ET scared the crap out of me.
He really cared. He was then transferred to another store (even further from home) to try and improve their performance, and I heard about half the staff quit when he went. There was another manager from another branch who would visit a lot to cover for him, and everyone expected she would be the replacement… and she wasn’t. She was also really good. An unexpectedly good management team that actually cared and helped. The real “its super busy, I will take my suit jacket off and join you on the shop floor” kinda team.
A series of fortunate events. 3 year course at university doing Product design. then about a year in and out of retail jobs. then i saw in a news paper a listing for a job which required a designer. At the time the store i was working at was very happy with my work, but the boss was an amazing person. They drove me to the first interview, as it was very close to their house.
3 Interviews later they called me saying I got the job, and it has been that way ever since. I feel lucky that my current career is a similar path to where i wanted to go. It was either an IT role or a design role, and my teachers at my school heavily encouraged me to take the design route.
There are very few. Factorio is amazing and no-one should play it if they value your life. Train Simulator “Classic” will also destroy your wallet, and it isn’t really that good. Horribly buggy, unoptimised, never patched or fixed.
I tend to go the other way. games I know people like, but I dislike. Far Cry 3 was the worst in the series, and I never got on with Red Dead Redemption 2, despite having 120 hours in it.

It is OK. Performance is a bit bumpy (expected) and communities are a lot quieter, but it is much much nicer here. Reddit is filled with absolute morons who scream SOURCE!!! every time they see a joke or opinion which doesn’t allign with their belief that children standing 8na. School yard deserved to die because they have the right to drive angiant car
This is what I sometimes do, transfer a bit of filament to a mini roll. There are a few decent files out there for re-spooling out there.
As environmental shakey 3d printing is, I am happy to be inconvenienced by cardboard spools, as that is one disposable things we can make not-plastic.
I always print slow with it. The tiny heated bed uses so little power, maybe only 5p per hour to run, Vs my rating which was costing me 20-30p per hour :|
I could get threaded rod up to 700mm, and the v slot 20x40 v slot could be cut to any length.
The “hardest” part was all the new cables and connectors needed. The printer uses 2 types of connectors for stepper motors and end stops, even though I purchased a few meters of ribbon cable.
I tried upgrading the extruder motor, but sadly the old ender 2 you can’t easily adjust any of the settings like esteps or pid tuning.
I have had cardboard spools for a while. I am on the fence. They are much easier to recycle (no matter how many 1million and 1 uses for plastic spools exist). however they creak horribly on my spool holder, and are much larger than most of the similar weight poly spools i have, so i had to create bespoke spool holders for all 3 printers i have!
Snap, I think I have the same camera, and wanted to mount it in a similar way, poking out the top corner of a window.
