Yup. I’m Bo7a.

Yeah the printing lines were not even sanded off the top.
I do want to thank you kindly for the offer to print one up. You Rock! But shipping to Canada would probably be ugly.
I hope to pick up a 3d printer this winter and if I manage it I will use this as a learning project.
Let’s not be silly now.
Oh man. I had so much fun on these. Great project!
What are ya building? Old motorcycles are my jam!
I’m currently rebuilding my '73 triumph for the 5th time. This time as a bobber with a bolt-on hardtail.
One-size-fits-all batman cat mask was not so one-size-fits-all
For context - This cat’s name is batman.
I pay for yt family premium and Netflix but use neither of them on a regular basis.
My nephews grew up with a pretty shitty life. They don’t have a lot of fun things they can do in their situation. I figured the least I could do is give them YouTube music and some access to watch TV and movies on Netflix wherever they happen to be.
It’s the same reason my steam family is chock full of games I’ll never play.
Has strawberry gotten any easier to theme? I tried a few years back and just couldn’t handle the aesthetics, and theming it seemed to only do some parts properly.
City of Heroes has been golden by comparison.

Where do you live that cops deserve respect? Nobody DESERVES respect, least of all due to their shitty job. If you want respect you earn it, and cops have been doing the opposite (in north america) since their inception.
People said the exact same thing about reddit being only good for technology enthusiasts and porn in the early days.
In my experience that is just how it goes on the internet. Nerds, furries, and porn collectors, are the early adopters for most places. The normies follow along years later.

Hey admins. This one right here…
Iritis/uveitis - My cornea detached due to the heavy pressure inside my eye. The most painful thing EVER.
Kidney stones - Close second
Motorcycle accident at highway speed that jammed gravel into my cranial cavity and left me looking like watermelon-head for 3 months - I’d still rather have this than kidney stones or iritis…
I think we agree. CEO should not be making decisions from a technical point of view, so they should not be second-guessing the technical people.
I’m at the stage of my career that pretty much every job I take, I report directly to the CEO. And the difference between what they should do and what they actually do is why I made my statement at the top of this thread.
Why not consult the people who actually know their stuff?
I mean questioning as in second-guessing the people who actually know stuff. Not asking experts for their honest thoughts.
Don’t you think that management could use your help and advice to make good strategic decisions in the long term?
Management is one thing - C-levels is yet another kettle of fish.
In my experience C-levels rarely want the technical answer to a question, and will be personally insulted / defensive if the answer is something they don’t understand. And they will ask their questions in such a way as to insult the expert. Two negative results that don’t help the business in any way.
But Dept heads and the PM office will often be able to explain why certain choices were made, and how that aligns with the business needs, without the complexities that cause misunderstanding between two people of such wildly divergent skillsets.
Now if the CEO can also write the code, or run the wetlab instruments, and really does want the nitty-gritty, complex technical answer, that is a different story. And rarely the case in my career.
Long term strategic thinking, experience to understand when trends and short-term solutions would be long-term mistakes, and the ability to avoid directly questioning someone with a skillset they don’t have themselves about technical or complex issues.
Go through an intermediary. Like a department head.
The developers, engineers, and architects don’t need your help, they need you to set logical long-term goals, hire good department heads, and schmooze with other CEOs in the same space.
We’ve been married 15 years. If we use a first name to address each other it usually means we are out in public and trying to find one another. And that is only because if I shout ‘QD(cutie)’ 5 women will turn around thinking it is their SO so it isn’t super useful.
If you bugged our house you would think my wife’s name is Dear, QD, Darling, Beautiful, or “HOLY SHIT CHECK THIS OUT”. There is almost no chance you’d catch either of our real names on that tape.
popos tiling works this way as well.
