I love Liz Climo’s stuff so much! Always just tickles me.

You’re welcome! I’m stoked that you’re enjoying it. I was having fun but I like spreadsheets so… I usually temper my expectations when making a recommendation.
Hope you get where you want to be with it quickly :)


Ex-boyfriends.


We’d get a second-hand book sale just before school starts where there school would on-sell used books bought back (or donated) from previous years. All the parents and many kids would look for the book in the best condition. If you knew what was up, you’d thumb through them all and look for the ones with highlighting and the margin notes. My parents were like “why do you want the ratty old one?” But didn’t press the issue too hard cos at least they were cheaper than the pristine ones where the spine had never been cracked.


We struck up a conversation and there were sparks right away. She’s a redhead and a bit fiery, but I think a little friction is only going to fan the flames of desire.
There’s a site called “morsle” which has a daily test (like Wordle, and all the other daily games that are going around) where it starts out playing you a 5 letter word in Morse code and you can replay it a bunch of times and every time you do it slows down the sound a bit, starting at 40 words per minute. It’s amazing how quickly you can learn to discern one sound from another. I only found it a day or so ago but I am finding it’s coming quite quickly to me. It feels almost like remembering a short musical riff or drum beat. It’s intriguing.


Benefit of the doubt: do you mean you doubt there are many people alive who FOUGHT in WWII?


I’m not sure college fixes that.
I would guess Versailles.
Pretty sure that’s Andrew Holness but it looks like he’s JLP not PNP. Now I’m confused. He was PM of Jamaica for three months at the end of 2011. An election was held at that point and the PNP won, displacing him. Perhaps that was a shirt PNP supporters at the time were using to rally the troops, or a shirt printed afterwards to mock him for only being in for 3 months… I have no idea. I fell down this rabbit hole and I honestly can’t find my way out. Just gonna go with the flow my lil ADD adventure.


The story within the book or the personality of the character?


It’s referring to an earlier incident in 2016 in LA.
And you’re gonna screw something else up tonight so prepare for kamikaze dive bombs in your sleep!
I love this about Lemmy - this convo was nearly 3 weeks ago - and you seem to have just found it and commented. People still engage on stuff even if it’s not brand new. I like it here.
I thought this shot seemed familiar:



Oh that is funny. I’ve had no issues with it, that said, I was content to use a website to convert my .skp files into .stl so I could print but that was less annoying than the learning curve of new software. I tried all the free/OS ones people tend to mention and maybe I’m just an old grump now, but they frustrated me more than just being able to make the thing I’m trying to make and spend no more than 1-2 minutes getting the file uploaded, converted and saved ready to go.
Keen to hear if you find a good solution given we have the same foundation tool. I’d be willing to try a recommendation from someone in the same boat.


Copied this from a similar question I responded to a while back: I have been using Sketchup 2017 (whatever the last free version was they released) for years to make 3D models for all kinds of purposes, incl 3D printing. For my brain it has proven to be the most intuitive tool to learn, it’s been a really long time so maybe I have forgotten but I feel like the barrier to entry was pretty small. There is a lot of content out there from people giving tips and tutorials. There are plug-ins still flooding around that have really good functionality. I use it with a Connexion 3D Space Navigator mouse that’s prob 10+ years old. That’s been a godsend and adds so much efficiency and flow to the tool.
I don’t know if you can still download it from Trimble but there are sources for it elsewhere.
Have fun, whatever you choose.


Warren? Schemer I get. Warren is great in my eyes, that’s like wanting RBG to step down. What did I miss?
Yeah, sticking it in a drawer might be their tactic, but congress would have to not be in session for it to work. If it was unanimously approved by both the House and the Senate, it would normally mean there are enough votes to override a veto, but if he did actually veto I wouldn’t put it past them not to hold an override vote.
