I went to my first Cars and Coffee today, and then got into a very minor accident with my Miata this evening. Barely a scratch, thankfully. Someone slowly crept into the back of me with their jeep Renegade at a stop.

My first time there was someone repeatedly announcing “leave your laptops in your bags” to everyone. When I get to the scanner, my bag was pulled and searched for 10 minutes. They then threw the bag back at me and scolded me for not removing my laptop.
pepsison52895@lemmy.oneto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Boomers with their loud Samsung phone soundsEnglish4·4 months agoThere are rare cases where full volume is necessary, but definitely not for the vast majority of people. For example, my phone is set to about 50% ringer volume, but I’m also on-call for work sometimes and I have that phone constantly set to 100% so I know that I’ll hear it in any circumstance. It also only goes off once every couple of months or so and not constantly.

The damage was caused by me instinctively putting my leg down while the bike was falling. That’s what snapped my knee. The nerve damage was because the pointy part of the tank (it extends outwards a bit at the top) landed directly on the side of my knee. I’m pretty sure having the riding pants with armor is what kept me from further damage as my kneecap was the first thing to land.
pepsison52895@lemmy.oneto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How did you hurt yourself in a very stupid way?8·4 months agoWent for a motorcycle ride when it was 12 degrees fahrenheit. I was warm with some heated gear, but I was on my Street Triple with Pirelli Rosso III tires. I stopped at a store for a while and didn’t think about the tires being cold. Gave it a bit too much throttle when leaving and the rear end slid at about 15 MPH. My leg went down first and it snapped my left MCL. I could barely walk for a month as it healed and had to go through physical therapy. My leg is solid now, but there’s some nerve damage from the bike landing on my leg, which decides to make itself known occasionally.
I didn’t get any spare parts with my A1 Mini.
I had something like this happen to me recently on my Ender 3 Max Neo. My filament feeds from a separate dry box and the spool was slightly crooked. Once the angle from the box to the extruder got too severe, the spool bound up and wouldn’t feed anymore. Moving the spool so it properly rested on the rollers fixed it.

My manager is considering implementing it after I proposed it for our team. That was only a few days ago so we’ll see where it goes.

Absolutely nothing lol. I do tech support for a living and work on cars as a hobby.
