I think it has more to do with expanded computing resources allowing for devs to skip optimizing their code since it is no longer absolutely necessary to get something useable.

And yet, it doesn’t. Show some real data.

A single anecdote hardly makes a compelling argument.

It’s only a layer line if it’s parallel to the bed, otherwise it’s just sparkling print artefacts.

Machine screws / bolts with a # sign are sized by gauge, not the major diameter of the screw. The gauge system for screws is weird and dumb, but we still use it for small stuff.

Per fastener direct, gauge can be converted to diameter using the following formula:

Diameter (inches) = 0.060 + (Gauge number × 0.013)

A #6 machine screw has a 9/64" or 0.138" (approx 3.6mm for our metric friends) major diameter and is offered in standard pitches of 32, 40, 48, and 80 threads per inch (At least, that’s what McMaster Carr stocks. The 80tpi is likely for a specialty application.).

I’m fairly certain that the unified screw spec stops around 3 or 4" , so 6" is well into custom/non-standard sizing.

Then why bother commenting?

Did the Leaf come from the factory with a 50mi range? That’s whack, I remember seeing an eGolf with like 75mi while I was car shopping last year and couldn’t believe that would work for anyone who drives any appreciable amount of time or distance.

The car I ended up with (2021 Polestar 2) has a nominal ~230mi range and that still feels pretty low compared to newer vehicles with 300+mi ranges.

Yuck, who puts mustard on a gyro? I’ve only ever seen them made with the gyro meat, onions, tomatoes, and tzatziki

Hawaiian pizza was, however, invented in Canada

I don’t see how someone else changing their last name has any appreciable effect on my life. If it makes them happy, I guess I’d be happy for them?

Either going for food or playing board/video games together!

Maybe they should stop platforming these geriatric fucks and make space for the next generation then.

The cylinder must remain unharmed

A calendar is not an inventory management system.

What is it, then? Maybe a convection oven?

Idk, not sure I really want to live in a post-apocalyptic world. Life is already hard enough as is.

That’s exactly where I learned about it! They ran it as a worldbuilding tool for the Ethersea campaign.

How does half a pickup truck compare to a large boulder the size of a small boulder?

Not exactly what you’re looking for, but this reminds me of The Quiet Year:

The Quiet Year is a map game. You define the struggles of a community living after the collapse of civilization, and attempt to build something good within their quiet year. Every decision and every action is set against a backdrop of dwindling time and rising concern.

The game is played using a deck of cards – each of the 52 cards corresponds to a week during the quiet year. Each card triggers certain events – bringing bad news, good omens, project delays and sudden changes in luck. At the end of the quiet year, the Frost Shepherds will come, ending the game.

The game occupies a niche somewhere between a ttrpg and a board game.
